Stevie Me and Suarez are going to need to check themselves into a facility to get over this one, heck the entire team from the tea lady on up. This will haunt them for the rest of their days.

I hope Suarez wont join Real Madrid during the summer

This Gif sums it up, oh the heartbreak lol. Pool were such tools thinking they could make up the GD. Stevie Me and Suarez are going to need to check themselves into a facility to get over this one, heck the entire team from the tea lady on up. This will haunt them for the rest of their days.

Evidently this Liverpool collapse was set in motion when United sacked David Moyes. Coincidence I think not! What would be even more hilarious is if City somehow lost to Villa.

What a season. Makes United sucking a little more bearable. A little.

Were they thinking that, or just hoping City might slip up?

Rodgers is confident his side can score the goals they may need to clinch glory.

"If there is any team that can score goals and turn it around it will be us," he told reporters.

The fact he didn't just hold onto the lead even at 3-2 is pretty silly

 

[OliverAtom]

I think they would have lost on goal difference anyway. They tried to make up for it and it cost them heavily.

 

[Goonerview]

Wouldn't mind Vela,

made me lol

this is gold!! .... great "Troll gif"

reminded me of :

 

[Goonerview]

If Chelsea didn't drop 5 points to regulation teams at home these last couple of weeks, the title would be theirs.

Chelsea really should have won the title this year, they droppped silly points. Losing to West Ham (a team they have a great record against) for example.

 

[YoungBoyd]

Poor Pool. It would have been great to see them win. Still, as long as Chelsea and United don't win the league i am very happy.

 

[Zer]

At least Carra could kinda see the funny side

 

[Goonerview]

^^^^ lol, dat face!

Liverpool f**ked it up when they lost to Chelsea IMO. TBF, though, this season's title really should have been won by Chelsea, they have been so inconsistent in the second half of this season (dropping so many silly points). They are still a young and improving team though, I reckon they will be a lot stronger next season (especially if they sign Diego Costa).

I think City will almost definitely win the title now (barring any major hiccups). With Yaya, Kompany, Aguero making up the spine of the team, Negredo, Dzeko, Fernandinho, David Silva just tearing it up for fun, they just got so much depth in talent ... Even Demichelis is starting to look pretty solid!!

Pellegrini has won the title by buying his players really early in the summer transfer window and having his team gel BEFORE the season started. Winning the league cup has also helped with their confidence! I think "The Engineer" has proved to be a top quality manager.

 

[Victor Maitland]

Demichellis reminds me of David Luiz. Better player as a DM rather than centre back.

 

[Chules]

Pellegrini is probably my favourite rival BPL manager, he's class in all his interviews. Never tries to wind anyone up, just focuses on his job. Hope he wins it.

I hope Suarez wont join Real Madrid during the summer

Why not? I think he's better than Benzema.

Ronaldo- Suarez - Bale

50m fine for breaking ffp yeah that will stop sugar daddy teams spending money Uefa

tbf that's gonna put a significant dent in their balance sheet, and they're struggling to make up their losses enough as it is. It basically takes their ridiculous Emirates deal out of the equation and then some. They gotta increases their revenue massively this season to avoid further fines down the road.

Pretty impressive sanction if true. I was expecting them to get fined a couple mill or something

Edit: actually looks like the fine doesn't count towards FFP calculations. Forget dat shit ^

Looks like they'll be restricted on their CL squad numbers though (21) and cannot increases wage expenditure on their current CL squad

FFP channels investment into stadiums and youth development. Awful. So much better to buy a truck-load of Sambas and Cisses instead.

Their balance sheet that already had almost a billion poured into it since 08 racking up losses of over 550m? Unless penalties increase with each year's violation I wouldn't be surprised if City just eat the extra 50m loss every year. The owner's family fortune is worth almost half a trillion and he's worth like 17 billion all by himself. He could do this for a generation and only lose about 6% of his personal wealth

 

[Tobago Jones]

Hahaha, looks like I missed all the shit that went down yesterday. After what Liverpool did to us in the FA Cup, I don't feel sorry for them. (Yes, i'm still bitter)

As I said I thought the fine counted towards City's balance sheet when I posted that. If it did they'd be in trouble
