not really sure if this is even possible but i think it probably is -

but i'd like to open a euro betting account (skybet? paddy? w/e) and would be willing to pay someone to help me get it set up/deposit/facilitate withdrawals etc. want to have more soccer betting options and this seems like a decent way about it.

if you are interested please pm me.

I dont think he expects anyone to take it as gospel. Probably just a strong bet in his opinion, in true 2p2 forum language

hey im a long time lurker

decided to register finally...however...

today i placed these bets.

Chelsea - Man.City
over 2.5 - 1.80 Pinnacle

AS Roma - Juventus
over 2.5 - 1.98 Pinnacle
simple value bet...expected odds around 1.90 or a little bit less...so its a good play imo.

Eintracht Frankfurt - Greuther Furth
Furth +0.5 - 2.05 ******
Frankfurt did not impress me like a few weeks ago...Furth played the more consistently football the last weeks

of course there are more reasons...just very short explanations

Roma are playing a very makeshift back 4 tonight so can see them taking a beating, de rossi is supposed to be playing at centre back which will not end well

Tempted to bet on Chelsea. I still consider them the best team in the league on paper and AVB surely will learned a lot from the Valencia game which was a classic Chelsea performance if you like (from Cech to Drogba and tactics in general).

I also still have doubts over Mancini's and Man City's approach in big games. It cost them dearly last season and we have seen evidence of that yet again this season (Liverpool away, the CL games). Even at Old Trafford they only started to go for it after United had a man sent off. Until Balotelli's goal it was all United and City didn't look like winning that game at all.

Also like Under 2.5 for that reason.

Chelsea have looked pretty good recently and they really need to win but it's hard to bet against City.

I think we'll see goals so I might play >2.5 and have a little bit on City ML.

If by recently you mean on Tuesday night against Valencia then fine but that was just one 90mins. Chelsea got battered in the 2nd half by Newcastle and scored 2 late goals to make it look like an easy 3-0 win. If you want to look back further they have looked anything but good.

Hoping Chelsea do the business tonight tho.

Mark Clattenburg in charge, taking a chance on the over 5 cards on the Asian line.

Meh. They didn't capitalise on quite a few opportunities in the Newcastle game.

Anyway, their problem has been that they leak so many goals but they seem to have turned that around (Even if only over a tiny sample of a couple of games).

I don't think either side will keep a clean sheet tonight, though.

Chelsea were comfortable winners in this fixture last year. City have replaced Tevez with Aguero and Chelsea added Mata. Other than that the personell hasn't really changed. Add what I said about City in my previous post and I think 1-0 or 2-0 Chelsea are the most likely results tonight for me.

What I meant by that is that if both teams are at their best and play to their strenghts (meaning no suicidal high line that doesn't seem to suit Chelsea atm) Chelsea should come out on top more often than not. I agree that if Chelsea were to approach tonights game like the Arsenal tie they would be torn to shreds.

And now Balotelli scored. **** my life.

A high line with the 2 slowest centre backs in the league may be a bad idea
