[Jayson]

Stoppage time...

[Jayson]

2-1 to Tottenham.

At least I got some points from Gerrard :spin2:

[Brad.]

2-1 game over nice one tottenham

[Marc]

Good game from us, really deserved it

[Brad.]

andyman and david wont be happy lol

[Shaun]

Oh my.

[Novo]

No draws in the premiership

[Jayson]

I'm happy that Liverpool lost, because that means Arsenal are more likely to succeed.

But I'd rather have had a draw.

agreed.

[Jayson]

Did David go to the match?

[30stone]

Great result.

Can tottenham break the top 4?


And that was in no way a penalty or a penalty would be gives every other game for it, but its never given...

People call it running your line..

[30stone]

Going out for dinner now cyah all later.

[Jayson]

Also wouldn't count out Judas#2 A.K.A. Toure.

[Gemmer-x]

ah i so wanted birmingham to score today, think they played decent second half and did well to come away with just a 1-0 loss

No not him

[Jayson]

Darren Bent was good.

[King Gizzard]

My internet went down for ages. :(

[Novo]

Think i'll update some transfers on Pro

[HeatherTWx]

i was actually dead annoyed with the ref today he was giving everything to tottenham. I think Liverpools confidence went when carragher and skrtel collided with each other earlier in the first half.It just went down hill from there. But i think that when benayoun came on we picked up a bit.

Birmingham played quite well today, i was quite surprised they didnt score.

Ah, Liverpool weren't too hot today and Spurs played very very well. Really impressed with their midfield.... Modric, Huddlestone and Palacios were all very effective. Alonso is missed.

And if you compare both squads, Liverpool don't have much to use on the bench whereas Spurs had some good players to come in. I just think Liverpool are a bit shakey this season if Torres and Gerrard don't do the business regularly for them.

[Locke.]

If Aquilani played we would have won 3-0, shame he's injured.

Ahh well, only the first game of the season the squad will make up for it wednesday night.

[King Gizzard]

Internet ****ed up again lol


Yes 5 points I knew I'd get the spurs result right

[andyman]

Top Gear! CARS!

Torres was kicked at the start of the game and was in pain.
Gerrard is not 100% fit.
Our new amazing signing not ready yet.
Ref is a Tottenham fan, fact!
1st game... Means fk all.

[30stone]

LOL

At all the excuses.
Tottenham on the day played the better football and deserved to win, liverpool didnt create chances.

As for the second penalty claim no way was it.

[Jayson]

Lol, all these excuses :joker:

I'm glad Tottenham beat L'pool, they are less of a threat to us than L'pool.

[30stone]

Yes agreed.

Couldnt have asked for a better result.
Would have likes bham to get a draw at old trafford..

I am hopefully ahead of the portsmouth and Celtic games.

[30stone]

Thought some fans would be big enough to admit it..

But not one liverpool fan has just accepted they wernt as good on the day.

[Jayson]

I reckon a draw would have been better.

[Marc]

LOL sore losers

[andyman]

The BIG games that we will win of 2009..

Saturday 21 November 2009
Liverpool 4 - 1 Man City

Sunday 29 November 2009

Liverpool 2 - 0 Arsenal

[30stone]

Fabregas
Drogba
Vermaelen
Rodallega
Rooney
Toure
Bent
Adebayor
Zamora
Noble.


They are the 10 i thought have performaed best this week, If it was 11 id say Van Persie to because he set up 2 great goals and played excellent.

So yeh they would be my choice..

[andyman]

Ref was a joke.. No, he is a joke!

Tottenham must have paid him £10,000 and a new car.. It happens.

Liverpool was not 100% fit, if we was then we would have won 4-0 easy, but that ref is always open to a bribe here and there.. Makes me sick it does!

That game means more to Tottenham, they will be wänking about it for years to come..

1st game, just a kick around.. Means fk all..

[30stone]

But you have to put up with injuries thats part of the game that cant be used as an excuse everyweek can you...

The ref wasn't a joke at all he made generally the right desicions..

You are just being a bad loser andy lol.
Liverpool fans :hugesmile: make me laugh.

[andyman]

Liverpool will make Arsenal fans cry and jump off bridges on Saturday 12th December at 4.45pm.

[andyman]

Thought we had a new series of Top Gear? :mad:

If that was arsenal and not liverpool come on you would of been peed off

The second call was for an Assou-Ekotto hand ball, which could have gone either way imo.

[Jayson]

Oh yeah, forgot about the barge thing.

That one was a penalty too, but the referee didn't want to look like he was a softy.

[Jayson]

I'm liking Birmingham's new kit :shocked:

No i wouldnt at all!

Because what i have learned is that something like that happenes with every match, or every other match..

They call it running their line, and its shoulder to shoulder...

Imo its a foul but if they dont give it for the 1000 times it happens then they shouldnt give it today.

rooney will be used as the main striker this year, no more of that left side malarky, he should get over 20

[30stone]

Rooney Drogba Arshavin Eduardo Lampard Gerrard Van Persie Torres Adebayor Fabregas

Will all score high each week..

[King Gizzard]

Rooney had a quality game today, should be in player of the week

[King Gizzard]

Torres Drogba Rooney the best 3 strikers in the world for me, the Villa just outside that

[Jayson]

I might just trade Torres for Rooney and use up 4pts rather than do anything drastic now.

If I'm still in the mid-table in a couple of weeks then I'll use it and make some big changes.

[30stone]

My top 3 teams scored.

83
86

and 96...
Highest ive ever scored!!

my team was..

----------------------Schwarzer(6)--------------
Johnson(4)-Hangeland(8)-Evra(6)-A.cole(2)
Taylor(2)-Fabregas(44)(c)-Parker(3)-Ireland(8)
------------Davies(2)------Rooney(9)--------------


The team that scored 86 was..

---------------------Schwarzer(6)-------------------
Evra(6)-A.Cole(2)-Hangeland(8)-Upson(12)
Valencia(3)-Malouda(2)-Dempsey(6)-Wright-phillips(9)
-------Rooney(18)(c)-----Drogba(12)-----------

Done pretty well, if chelsea had not been useless.. and let a goal in i would have got 100 with one of them..

[30stone]

Ibrahimovic, David Villa and torres are all amazing for me..

[Jayson]

Anyone that had Fabregas as their captain did amazing this week.

[King Gizzard]

Ibra struggles to perform against the big teams, villa just about comes 4th for me

[30stone]

Imo Torres is becoming over rated..

Everyone is claiming hes best in the world and that but he has quite a few off games really..

[Jayson]

If he doesn't score against Stoke then I'm changing him with Van Persie and changing Sagna with Evra to make the numbers right.

[30stone]

Yeh, i Noticed he either performs amazingly or hes ****, like today.

[Jayson]

I think he's become complacent after a summer with no real football.

If there had been an international cup like the World Cup or Euro then he would be on form.

[King Gizzard]

I need to take anelka out

but i still wont have enough for rooney or drogba

wildcard idea is becoming more and more a reality

[setanta]

Torres needs service and he didn't get it today. Spurs had Liverpools midfield in their pockets. Torres is just a poacher. He doesn't contribute as much to a teams workrate as Drogba does. He's worldclass in a different way.

Nooo Zamora was never in my team because he wasnt my emergency sub, i had phil neville instead ugh

[Novo]

Originally posted by Nathan

10.5 each i think

[30stone]

Remember who each team is playing okay?

Like man utd burnley.. its obvious rooney will probs score lol..


We have games on wednesday ...

And the obvious ones will be..

Man utd Burnley.
Liverpool Stoke..

But you also have to think it will be a long game week and some teams could play twice..


Man utd will play burnley and wigan in 1 game week, meaning rooney could get 180 minutes (4 straight points) and then if he scores...

Liverpool Play Stoke and aston villa.

Tottenham have west ham and hull..


Everton, Man city, Arsenal, Bolton, Fulham, Blackburn, Aston Villa, West ham
All arent playing 2 games!

So think of the people you want playing.. since you only have 1 transfer...

[King Gizzard]

Anelka will blatently score now and drogba will have a crap match

[Jayson]

I think I might change O' Shea with Hangeland, Torres with Drogba, Gerrard for Fabregas, Agbonlahor for someone and Sagna with Evra when I play my wild card.

lol i couldnt be bothered to think of all that


i done well last year in the leagues i was in, was about 5th or 6th on average in leagus of around 30 people

[30stone]

So id advise looking at who each team is playing, and which tegam is playing 2 matches..

Chelsea Liverpool and United all playing 2 games so would be good choices..

[Jayson]

I used my free transfer already, Anderson for Koumas.

[King Gizzard]

Im going to a wildcard tommorow night maybe

Yeh i just saw the fixture list and realised its a 6 day gameweek.. and will score points on 5 days..


Anyone who plays both games is guaranteed 4 points... someone like rooney is likely to score at least one.. so thats 10 +..

[King Gizzard]

So are midweek games just aded onto players points that are already there? if you get what I mean

[30stone]

Um i think this game week ends today, the next one will start tuesday, and end next monday..

and players can play 2 matches...



wonder if carew wil be fit...

[King Gizzard]

I dont know whats going on with carew, he wont be playing either way cause villa done have a midweek match


I really think he had a bust up with oneill which is very bad news, i ll always be on carews side

[30stone]

Gameweek 2 opens
18th August 19:30pm.

So yeh double games, double points for those who play 2.

So if rooney plays both games..

he gets 4 points..
if he scores against burnley he gets 4 more if he scores against wigan he gets 4 more..

so he could easily score a goo amount of points.. i might have him as my captain this week..

[30stone]

Arshavin.......... Fabregas.......... Denilson.......... Van Der Vaart

[King Gizzard]

VDV is best in the centre, part of his problem is he gets lumped on the left alot like this season at madrid

[30stone]

We would have so many options no loss in depth for us..

Only problem with that is when everyone is fit they all want to start..

[King Gizzard]

I think Wenger would get Hangeland and then be happy


I just think hes waiting till deadline day or close

I think if our injury troubles settle down by January we should loan him.

Everyone I know is on holiday but I couldn't afford to go because I spent all my cash on my car.

So I'm stuck on my own for 3 more weeks :sad:

[keithafc]

Told you Liverpool would struggle. It was all guns blazing like i said and Liverpool just didn't match it at all. Lucky to get a goal tbh, it was a PK but still.

[King Gizzard]

Im going to have these 2 weeks off, play alot of football, go out probably quite alot, football weekends, then look for a job for september
alevel results thursday as well gutted

[Novo]

I've only got FM 08

[Jayson]

I've never played FM.

[Johann]

Liverpool were awful today - scoreline should have been more than 2-1 tbh. They can thank Reina.

[Jayson]

Hey Johann :wavey:

It's a good thing that L'pool lost, gives us a better chance :dance:

[King Gizzard]

Noo the Bea sig :cloud::joker:

Alright Johannn

[Jayson]

Just finished downloading Calvin Harris' new album! woot :bouncy:

[keithafc]

Still very early in the season but i was surprised with how poor Torres was. King just eat him up and spat him out. Although the lack of service until Yossi Benayoun came on was shocking.

[King Gizzard]

King is brilliant though, I wasnt surprised Torres had a quiet game!

King and Bassong looks like quite the partnership

[Novo]

Everton have burnley on the weekend thank god that should get us off the mark

I woudn't mind if we had a big squad but we don't and i can see us picking up more injuries

[Johann]

Some early contenders for goal of the season this weekend - there's been some absolute crackers.

My vote for goal of the weekend would be Denilson's; not because it was an Arsenal goal but the move leading up to it followed by a sublime finish.

[King Gizzard]

Mine has got to be ekottos, amazing

i didnt think Rodellegas could be topped


drogbas would of been if he didnt admit it was a cross

[Johann]

Chelsea, Liverpool and Utd have all looked rather suspect this weekend, whilst we blitzed our opponents. Very encouraging stuff.

[Johann]

Liverpool need another classy player to accompany Torres and Gerrard - someone who can take the games by the scruff of the neck when those two arent firing on all cylinders like today. I dont understand why Benayoun didnt start ahead of Babel, who was horrendous. Yossi did more in the 15mins he was on then Babel did the whole game.

That said, Totnam were very good and Palacios bossed that midfield. speaing of Palacios, time to check my fantasy team!

[King Gizzard]

I honestly think its between Chelsea and arsenal

Man U will feel the loss of ronaldo HEAVILY and liverpool, well I dont really need to explain do I?

[keithafc]

It was one game. There will be games which will be tight and very compact. Fabregas and Vermalene said it themselves. More positives performances are needed. It's not about how you start, it's about where you finish and to finish in a good and in a much more respectable place, you need to put in better consistent displays week in week out than last season. Arsenal had no chance of winning the league after 15 games last season. 5 loses out of 15. The 4-3-3 system suits a lot of our players as well.

[King Gizzard]

You've got yourselves a brilliant CB in vermalean

[30stone]

I think we have mixed squads for who we play, if its a bottom half team i think we can play the team you put then, but often we will play song for some strength in centre midfield.

[Johann]

Song was ****ing immense. I still think we need another CM though because once he buggers off to the ACN we'll be slightly short so some cover will be nice. I dont think Denilson plays that CDM pos well, hes a bit more advanced. Same with Diaby.

[30stone]

Its about consistancy with us...

We get a lot of games where we play stoke, and get about 20 shots on goal but just cant find the net and ent up with silly draws..


And i hope we dont get the injuries we had last season... at no point did we have less than 4 players injuried 2 first team...

Rosicky proved when he came back that he can make a massive difference its like spending 15 - 25m on a brand new player having him back same with eduardo..

Eduardo is a goal scorer looking at his record.. he does what hes supposed to and showed that at everton, 15 minutes and he got a goal.

[Jayson]

I think Bendtner needs to start shooting practice. He has about 10 shots per game and only ever gets 2 on target.

[Novo]

Am still going for United to win the premiership

ACN??


And yes Denilson and diaby arent attacking midfielders but they arent defensive either and neither are particularly strong..

Im happy because bendtner actually shined against everton for me, usually he frustrated me..

Not to forget Walcott will be back within the week same as diaby...

Our team is looking quite large weirdly, i think its just because we will have all but 2 players fit by the time we play portsmouth..

African cup off nations

Dodgy start but they will remain consistant and keep picking up wins no matter how scrappy we drop silly points sometimes..

[Johann]

Remember tht game aginst Blackburn last season where we won 4-0 but Bentdner missed about 5 clear cut chances? That was ridiculous. Thankfully, we had Arshavin and EEEEEEMANUEL EBOOOOUE to show him how its done.

[keithafc]

Im always more confident we can score at any point in a game when Arshavin is in the team and we have the front 3 in a 4-3-3.

Song was immense but we put the opposition under pressure. We pressured them into losing the ball like Man utd do and Barcelona. That's the difference. Song could be immense but we need to keep doing that. You have to win the battle first in order to play.

[30stone]

Bendtner is usually against everton i rated him well..

Twice last season i complined about bendtner towards the end saying how he will come on and be ****ing **** and wont do anything, both times he scored lol..

Hes another..

Walcott
& bendtner

are not consistant at all..

Eboue does the same for me, i dont really rate him..

[keithafc]

We have match winners in the side. Van Persie, Arshavin, Eduardo are match winners. We have power in song, just need to keep doing the pressure game, he will come good in that. Our full backs are vital to the width, sagna, clichy. Gallas, Vermalene has some balance it seems to it. You have to give the quality players in the team a chance to win games.

[King Gizzard]

We ll only have Beye going away to the ACON



And Salifou



Not a big loss

[Jayson]

Walcott is only inconsistent due to injuries though, he is quite prone to them.

When he comes on he livens up the team, he is a great player, even though he needs to work on his crossing.

[Novo]

Pienaar Yakubu and Yobo for us

[Johann]

4-3-3 has brought back our lightning quick counter attacking game. Fabregas' first goal yesterday was a trip back to our invincibles team where we would get from side of the pitch to another in a flash. It was a joy to watch. And I agree keith, we closed them down really well. Allowed no time for them to build up moves, something we havent done much the last couple of seasons. It was a brilliant all round team performance - just have to apply the same work rate week in week out.

[King Gizzard]

The best thing about the ACON is the ball http://soccerlens.com/shirts/files/2008/01/acn-ball.jpg

[Jayson]

I think 4-3-3 is our best bet this season.

When Nasri comes back it will be great.

[King Gizzard]

Nasri is a class act

[30stone]

The 4 - 3 - 3 Works.

But i would be worried Chelsea could be good against us on a 4 - 3 - 3


And Walcott yes he livens the team up,

But he loses it as much as bendtner, his final touch is usually bad or mistimed aswell, hes a player whos either really good or just useless..

[30stone]

Originally posted by Nathan

Yeh think he is quality, and since fabregas will probably leave if we dont win somthing this year..

He would be the perfect man to fill the spot along with wilshire...

Nasri is best in the centre i believe.. Hes a hard worker and he is an amazing player..

[keithafc]

Walcott lacks the technical skills to be a winger. As he gets older he will go as a striker but again, we will see how he develops. He's an odd one Walcott. I still ain't too sure on his best position.

Edit - I meant Walcott.
