Premiership highlights - 22 Aug. 09

Here are today's highlights...

Man City's total inability to stick the ball in the net. Some of the chances that they missed vs Wolves beggared belief. The words 'cow', 'arse' and 'banjo' spring to mind. The match could (and should) have finished 8-1. City were almost punished for their profligacy in the end when Wolves hit the bar with only minutes to spare. That would have been incredibly funny.
Talking of profligacy in front of the goal, Blackburn's Kalinic is a hard act to follow. He fluffed at least 3 shots being under no pressure from a Sunderland defender. I can't stop laughing when I think that Sam Allardyce paid £6m for this dud. I would have been annoyed if I had paid 5 quid and a packet of crisps for him, let alone 6 big ones.
On a final note, interesting to see Portsmouth's implosion. With only 3 games played in the Premiership, they already look a certainty for the drop. Totally inept at the back, toothless going forward. Their supposed takeover by new owners must have been the longest one in football history. What are they waiting for?? If they don't act soon, Pompey will be relegated by Christmas. Not that it's necessarily a bad thing, mind you.
