FUNNY (?) TWITTER RECAP OF THE 3rd ROUND OF ENGLISH PREMIERLEAGUE

This time you're getting shopping in Leeds, MLS, gingers, denim jacket, god-hatred, Venky's, Ophelia, Irene, Usain Bolt, and even Freddie Mercury... And for those who don't know, he was brilliant at Anfield! No, he was not singing. Well, maybe later in the showers (luckily I wasn't there...). BTW, he obviously signed a contract with Gillette; no sign of famous moustache whatsoever... Probably due to aerodynamic reasons...

BUT, still, it was not 'Luis Mercury' who was in the spotlight in the 3rd round of EPL. And even the Citizens weren't - despite very impressive WHL performance. Oh, no! I don't 8 2 say it but it was the Red Devils who stole the show. Fergie's heroes DEMOLISHED - yes, young - lads of Arsenal... Oh, wait, ManU squad was even younger... Hm, what was that all about then? Difference in quality? Nah, it couldn't be since ARSEne is a scouting/tactical genius. I wonder... :D

Now it's time to explain (again), what this blog is all about. As I wrote the last two times: 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 "third edition". Here are some of the bits, which should shed some (different) light on the 3rd round of EPL. I thank all the tweeps for contributing...

And, please, again, pardon my English... I was born lazy (so blame my parents).

ASTON VILA - WOLVERHAMPTON 0-0
MirrorFootball
Loving Mick Mcarthy's gameplan: bore Villa to death for 89 minutes and then try and grab a late goal when they're asleep
StrettyNews
When I saw all the empty seats at Villa Park, I had to re-check who was playing. Had a feeling I was watching City.
MCARTER82
Worse than watching MLS this game.... Ok, ok, not quite THAT bad! #Villa #Wolves
Live4Soccer
FT 0-0 Villa/Wolves....well that's 2 hours of my life I'll never get back.... :-\

WIGAN - QPR 2-0 (1-0)
nick24qpr
Wigan must have the highest ratio of ginger to normal people in the whole of England.!! #justsaying #QPR
Georgie_138
Torres will be with QPR next season lol
LucieDot
Just seen a photo of @Joey7Barton watching QPR in his denim jacket, favourite picture of a footballer ever. Lovely

BLACKBURN - EVERTON 0-1 (0-0)
ManUnitedYouth
Impressive commitment to not scoring by Blackburn.
stevengoal_uk
Let me get this straight - Blackburn miss two penalties, have a dodgy one given against them, and it's the owners' fault?
marcridley88
could be worse #safc could support Blackburn. Can't help but laugh
ivansocceroz
I'm pretty sure God hates Steve Kean #blackburn #rovers
mtkelvin
Blackburn miss two penalty kicks and lose the match.Writing appearing on the wall for Kean.Venky chicken heads arent pleased.MumbaiRoosting

CHELSEA - NORWICH 3-1 (1-0)

Those poor Chelsea supporters must be jolly well pooping themselves at the prospect of confronting the mighty Yellow Army today #NCFC OTBC!
MirrorFootball
Massive goalkeeping error for Chelsea. Hilario by name, dodgy keeper by nature
alexilalas22
Harsh red for Ruddy but maybe the soccer gods saw his late challenge on Drogba.
SiR_Tobii
Juan Mata gets Chelsea's 3rd goal. Has scored as many Chelsea goals in 23 mins as Torres has scored in 21 appearances (14 starts)

SWANSEA - SUNDERLAND 0-0
hywel1974
"Swansea Nil" yes you guessed it.............nil.
Martycricket
1372 miles for #SAFC fans this week to Brighton and Swansea and not a single goal to cheer. Glad I'm shopping in Leeds today.

LIVERPOOL - BOLTON 3-1 (1-0)
Sean_Fay
Joe Cole: "Luis Suarez is the best striker I've ever played with" - didn't know Suarez was lining up for the Liverpool reserves too.
OptaJoke
33 - Ray Wilkins has so far pronounced Luis Suarez's name 33 different ways during Liverpool v Bolton. Americas.
Eboue_Eboue
Liverpool top of the table...3 horse race for the title then..between Liverpool, Chelsea and Wolves..
YoungLee1
Have to admit that Freddy Mercury looks good up front for Liverpool. Though it wont be long before one of the big clubs try to buy him

NEWCASTLE UTD - FULHAM 2-1 (0-0)
carljohnson125
Highlight of the day - seeing a man in a mobility scooter be told to sit down after #leonbestismint 's 1st goal #nufc
NUFC_US Wish I Was a Geordie
Did we sign 3 guys named Cabaye? He was everywhere today. #joeywho #NUFC
Gazcumps
Besty's second goal was a belter. If Messi had turned like that Sky would have a months worth of masturbation material!! #nufc #nufcfans

TOTTENHAM - MANCHESTER CITY 1-5 (0-2)
Melissa_Maria
*turns the tv off* *slits wrists* I'll be floating in the bath doing my best Ophelia impression if anyone needs me. #thfc
Saifington
Well at least we have a nicer kit than them #minorvictory #thfc
RyanSinnott
To put things in perspective its been £480million quid since they last beat us at the lane. #THFC
paddysfc
Looks like Irene has hit White hart lane #thfc
PremLgeReport
Shamrock Rovers scouting party at WHL today. They are considering sending an U15 side for the Europa League clash after today. #THFC #MCFC
Ryan_WDavis
Spurs is yidish for embarrassing #THFC #MCFC
DaddyTdog
I'm sending an S.O.S to Jurgen Klinsmann....... #thfc #COYS!

WBA - STOKE CITY 0-1 (0-0)
briankettle
Having steered #wba to no points from three games, Hodgson can now start his famous ship-steadying, relegation-saviour act. Great manager.
carlrecine
Could't be at WBA today to see Stoke win but being at OT to see Arsene's face at full time nearly made up for it, beautiful moment!! #scfc

MANCHESTER UTD - ARSENAL 8-2 (3-1)
thorpe13
great dinner earlier, feel like I 8 2 much!! #mufc
StiBern84
@WayneRooney You were absolutly brilliant today. The perfomence made me forget my terrible hangover #Rooneyispureclass #MUFC
UnitedLatest
8-2 be an Arsenal supporter... #MUFC #AFC
JamesAithie
Usain Bolt reckons he could play for Man U. Maybe a spot on the bench, as we're okay for pace, plus he's not good with starts! #mufc #motd
GurmeetSahni
Love #mufc. Even when city win 5 1 we steal the show. Always in our shadow. Champ19ns
