There's no doubting Arsenal's 8-2 thrashing at the hands of Man United was humiliating, all be
it against an Arsenal B team, but getting beat 6-1 at home by your closest rivals is surely
worse.
Both results were coming, but which is actually more embarrassing?
What result is more Humiliating, 8-2 or a 6-1 home defeat to your rivals?
Sergio Aguero playing as a lone striker? It's possible he could play second fiddle to Mario
Balotelli, Edin Dzeko, or even Carlos Tevez during the Premier League season.

on flop Robinho but will their new number 16 be worth it?

The days when football was played simply for the love of representing a cherished team seems to
have gone. When players received their hard-earned wage they deserved every penny and the fans
respected them for it. Now, players have continued to ask for extortionate amounts which the
average working person would be ecstatic about; football has obviously lost its purpose and no
longer can be seen as a working man's game.
For Sheikh Mansour, the oil rich owner of Manchester City, a victory over Stoke in the FA Cup
final tomorrow would represent the completion of the first stage of his long-term plan, having only
owned the club for less than three years. City fans already have Champions League football to look
forward to next season, an astounding feat in itself given the fact that they were lost in
mid-table obscurity just a few seasons ago.
Manchester City's compounding defeat at the hands of Chelsea yesterday has put another nail into
the coffin of manager Roberto Mancini.
The man cannot seem to get to grips with the Premier League. His side was far too cautious
yesterday with defensive minded players Barry and De Jong literally offering time and space to
Michael Essien and Ramires in midfield.
