FUNNY (?) TWITTER RECAP OF THE 1st ROUND OF ENGLISH PREMIERLEAGUE

You won't find any detailed experts' analysis here. You won't find complete scoresheets either. But you'll find a good banter, juicy comments about the game, the clubs, the players, the refs, the goals ... Maybe you'll find some useful info/opinion for a football chat in your favourite bar ...

Namely, football is a global sport, so is English Premierleague. It is followed by a huge number of a-round-ball-loving enthusiasts, journos, players and managers themselves ... I hear football is also more and more popular in the US of soccer ... :)

And for all those reasons it's widely commented on Twitter. It is a very well known "fact" that tweeps possess a lot of football knowledge, common sense, cynicism, humour, love/hate relationships ... And, yes, even different kinds of stupidity occur ...

So, all the ingredients for the tasty soup of football opinion are there.

This is the "first edition". Here are some of the bits, which should shed some (different) light on the 1st round of EPL. I thank all the tweeps for contributing ...

And, please, pardon my English ... It's been a while ...

LIVERPOOL – SUNDERLAND 1-1 (1-0)

Judging by way everyone was blowing smoke up Liverpool's nether regions at HT, I presume they went on to win by a landslide? Oh.
ColinUdoh
Sunderland's back four today was Brown, Brown, Brown and Brown

BLACKBURN – WOLVERHAMPTON 1-2 (1-1)

Watching blackburn just makes me angry

So many surprising things have happened recently but few more than Wolves beginning the new season with a 2-1 away win. 2nd in the table.

FULHAM – ASTON VILLA 0-0
KristianJack
Its been all Fulham since the restart. Given already worth his weight in gold. Two big saves.
Russ_Goldman
My wife came in and saw the score of the Fulham match and said that must have been boring. I told her absolutely not. Very entertaining.

QPR – BOLTON 0-4 (0-1)
BWFCForum
QPR ticket prices aren't that bad if you think of them as £12.50 a goal. #bwfc #qpr
MirrorFootball
GOAL! You know you're in trouble when Fabrice Muamba scores... QPR 0-4 Bolton

WIGAN – NORWICH CITY 1-1 (1-1)
KristianJack
70 mins in and #Wigan and #Norwich have combined for 26 attempts on goal in what has been another great advert for the #epl. Still 1-1.
Chris_Cohen
Paul Merson - Norwich with lots of possession, but they don't look like scoring at all...... GOAL! Norwich equalise! #genius

NEWCASTLE UNITED – ARSENAL 0-0

#Gervinho certainly looks a player to win lots of trophies for #AFC. #fairplay being one of them.
AnnieEaves
Gervinho has now seen a replay and is shaking his head at the decision. Weather forecast in Newcastle changes to 'Windy'.

STOKE CITY - CHELSEA 0:0
MirrorFootball
For those asking, attractive lady on #cfc bench now is their reserve physio. Attractive lady on the #cfc bench later will be Torres
TheGhost84
Torres improved form linked to return to old hairstyle? Like Samson - no wonder Stoke fans singing for Delilah!
amycfc90
Stoke's man of the match: Mark Halsey. Closely followed by Stoke's bus.

WBA - MANCHESTER UNITED 1-2 (1-1)
UtdIndonesia
'91 Somebody should wear speedo. Yellow for WBA player for diving.
henrywinter
Do not adjust your television sets....Danny Welbeck's boots really are that fluorescent. #mufc
AverageCynic
lovely goal from Carlos Valderrama... oh no my mistake its Wayne Rooney. #hair
DeeperMadness
I'm not too good with Spanish names; do you pronounce "De Gea" like "Barthez"?

MANCHESTER CITY - SWANSEA CITY 4-0 (0-0)
Lord_Sugar
£270m v £9m still only 11 men per team new Man City player warming up don't know his name for now I will call him Costafortune
SAINTVOLDEMORT I love how the Man City fans are going this is our year" NO. it was one game against Swansea.
prodnose
Dynamite debut Aguero. Up till then City were average and, be fair, beating Swansea is like kicking away a blind man's stick. See ya Tevez!

TOTTENHAM - EVERTON 2-0 (1-0)
K_Doyle1985
“@johncrossmirror: Sandro sneakily pouring water over Pavlyuchenko's head on the subs' bench. That's my sort of humour. #thfc” now injured
krisverri
Landon Donovan should go see Wayne Rooney's hair guy. #THFC #MUFC #EFC
dilski
@BenPearceSpurs The stream i'm watching just did a feature on Ginola... just imagine him, in his prime, in this side? Ooh la la... #thfc
nicbuchel
Watching #mcfc v. #lfc & #thfc v. #efc. The "Cosmo Kramer" look is really working for Adebayor.
chrishenry81
One of my favourite tweets I've ever read was "Gareth Bale looks like he cheated at Jumanji!" #efc #thfc
liam_twomey
Assou-Ekotto just unleashed what's known in the industry as a 'Di Santo special' - spectacular but significantly deflected #thfc
