Robinho finally got his Premier League career under way today after what has seemed a life time since he has joined Manchester City. The Brazilian international sensationally joined the Blues on transfer deadline day two weeks ago for a British transfer record fee of £32.5 million and today made his debut against Chelsea, a team whom were also interested in him.

He couldn’t of got off to a better start. A stunning free-kick inside fifteen minutes put Mark Hughes men ahead, which was followed by his trade-mark sucking of the thumb celebration. The City fans were on cloud nine, their new star man putting them in the lead against the might of Chelsea.

But as the game wore on and Luis Filipe Scolari’s men took a firmer grip on proceedings, the flamboyant Robinho faded out of proceedings. He had his occasional step over, the odd good pass or two, but, for me, he looked a bit lost. I am a City fan myself, and seeing Robinho score early on was amazing.

He did run back to help defend on occasions but the one thing I wasn’t happy about was his attitude at times. Whenever one of his team-mates lost the ball, he didn’t encourage, he just threw his eyes up to heaven and that is no what I like to see from a top class player. He is coming to the club with a massive reputation and he knows he is the best player their, but I didn’t like his attitude at times.

Anyway, Let’s look forward to Thursday when City face Omonia from Cyprus in the UEFA Cup first round, shall we.

Liverpool have today finally beaten Manchester United at Anfield today after seven years without a victory against the Premier League Champions. The Merseyside giants came into today’s game unbeaten in the Premier League along with their rivals, but were desperate to secure three points after several years without a victory over Sir Alex Ferguson’s men.

The game got off to the worst possible start, if you were a Liverpool fan. United took the lead after just three minutes when United’s new £30 million striker, Dimitar Berbatov, cleverly laid the ball back for Carlos Tevez to coolly finish.

However Liverpool responded well, with Dirk Kuyt nearly levelling the scores soon after. It was a goalkeeping error that got Liverpool back into the match, when Edwin Van Der Sar punched the ball against the on-coming Wes Brown, only to see the ball roll into his own net.

Liverpool continued to impress and went close again soon after the break. Robbie Keane played a superb ball into Yossi Benayoun couldn’t capitalise on the promising position. It was substitute Ryan Babel who secured all three points for Liverpool. Javier Mascherano forced Ryan Giggs into a mistake, leaving the Argentine international a simple lay off to the on-rushing Ryan Babel who duly finished.

A terrific result for Liverpool which keeps them level with Chelsea at the top of the Barclays Premier League table on 10 points. A average debut by new United signing Dimitar Berbatov, but hey, he’s only just got their, he will take time to settle in and I am sure he will prove to be a huge success.

Elsewhere is finished; Blackburn 0-4 Arsenal, Fulham 2-1 Bolton, Man City 1-3 Chelsea, Newcastle 1-2 Hull City, Portsmouth 2-1 Middlesbrough, West Brom 3-2 West Ham, Wigan 1-1 Sunderland.

Today’s Premier League Bet of the Day comes from the Liverpool V Manchester United match. Both sides will be desperate to continue their decent starts to the season so this could be some a cracker.

I have gone for new United striker Dimitar Berbatov to score at anytime @ 5/2 @ Paddy Power (Below, and follow the links). I think with him up front on his own and with Rooney and Tevez supporting he is bound to get on the score sheet. Make sure to get your money on qucik because the game starts very soon on Sky Sports 1.
