He joined city when he was 13!!! he was at coventry for a year! when he was 12. Im absolutly certain that city have done much more in developing him from the age 13 onwards than coventry did in 1 year when he was 12!
thats like saying david beckham isnt from man utd's acadamy cauz he was at spurs at the age of 13 befour joining utd at 14

We've still got a couple of good players coming through like Pique and Evans. Rossi never looked big enough to play in the prem, every time he came on he was too small and he'll be better off in somewhere like Spain where it's less physical.

 

[Jaztheman]

Gerard Pique will be the best defender or there about when he is at his peak, mark my words.

 

[BigCrickNan]

Good result yesterday at wigan. benayoun was class, he's outdoing most peoples expectations.

I will, I hope.

 

[Leicester Fox]

Pique came through Barcas academy though and joined united. He seemed like he might begoing last season but we've decided to keep him, I prefer Evans myself. Just watched united on MOTD, Ronaldo your brilliant Another clean sheet for united, best defence in the prem! Will Arsenal kindly mid dropping points?!

That game against West Ham has been the best result of the season so far

Yup.

 

[evertonfan]

Don't you love it when you put a tenner on Arsenal winning the league at the start of the season and have all your mates ridicule you only to see Arsenal take the league by storm?

 

[King Pietersen]

Nice win for the Toffees. Move up to 5th i think, not too bad. Good start considering we havent actually been playing "that" well. I have high hopes for this season, also we'll be even better when we get Timmy Cahill back from his foot injury. Just need to get Yakubu and AJ scoring goals now.

Don't you love it how I love you for betting on Arsenal?

Don't you also love it how everyone thought our style of football wouldn't cut it this season yet we are top of the league?

 

[evertonfan]

To put it bluntly; Doesn't everyone love Arsenal despite them having two bum related words in their name?

They've been my second time for a while.
