[Jayson]

Szczesny was made our no. 1 just before the Euros, Nathan. Shows that we have confidence in him, not that we hadn't shown that before. Should be with us for a long time.

Giroud is #12... not sure why he wasn't given Park Chu-Young's #9, it's not as if the guy's done anything for us. Podders will be an excellent #10.

+ I read this morning that Yann M'Vila wont be coming to Arsenal, as Arsene thinks it would give us too many CDMs, which is fair enough.

[King Gizzard]

It was confirmed today, Jayson http://www.djforums.com/forums/images/smilies/badgerslayer.gif

[Jayson]

Anyone with common sense knew it was coming when Almunia was released on 22 May http://www.djforums.com/forums/images/smilies/badgerslayer.gif

btw I like that badger smiley

[King Gizzard]

I know but I just saw he'd been given it on twitter Lol

Robbie Savage ‏@RobbieSavage8

On a serious note ,if rangers are struggling for players I would come out of retirement and play for nothing , could do a job in scot div 3!

Didn't think Robbie Savage was being serious at first but he is

MLS All Stars beat Chelsea 3-2 on a goal scored by Seattle's Eddie Johnson in extra time. Despite it being a random exhibition. I'm happy

Jermain Defoe has returned home from our pre-season tour after the tragic news of the death of his cousin. We send our sincere condolences.

Poor guy and his family, 2 deaths this Summer:(. My thoughts and condolences are with them!

OMG check out Leon Knight's tweets to Jamie O'Hara in their argument, awkward:joker:.

Indeed but Danielle Lloyd is no angel either and it is understandable that Jamie is sticking up for his wife.

Southampton Ajax friendly on channel 5..random

[MTVN]

Carroll been named in Liverpool's starting line up for the Europa League qualifier, nice of Rodgers to give him one last game before his move down to East London

[Locke.]

Our season kicks off tonight with a Europa League game against FC Gomel, hopefully Borini starts.

[Locke.]

Downing from about 30 yards gives us an away win.

Gomel deserved it more than us to be honest, thankfully they couldn't finish.

[bbfan1991]

Cech, Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry (c), Cole; Essien, Lampard; Ramires, Meireles, Hazard; Torres.

This Chelsea team lost 3-1 to Brighton, full strength too.

Steven Naismith scored a hat trick for Everton tonight and Tony Hibbert scored as well, the world has gone mad :crazy:

It was Hibberts testimonial wasn't it, probably let him score

What was the attendance?

We've got Hearts in the next round of the Europa League

[Novo]

Easily through then

Peterhead v Rangers live on Sky Sports 2 at 12.45

3-0 and a hat trick from this guy will do nicely

[Locke.]

Wonder why Ian Black signed for Rangers when he was Hearts' best player, even if they get the three successive promotions his career will be heading into the last couple of years by the time they do it

[BBfanUSA]

ESPN in America just had an epic ad over here in America.

ESPN will start their games August 18th. (They hold at least a sat game and a tue game)

2-0 up against Podders' old club Koln after 20 mins

[Locke.]

We're 3-0 up against Leverkuesen, Carroll thankfully just scored

[Brother Leon]

Shut up Locke.

[Locke.]

Shut up Locke.

Bought your City shirt yet?

[Jayson]

3-0 to the Gunners at half time, Podders scoring 2 against his old team-mates and the Verminator with 1. Santi Cazorla is playing like he's been at Arsenal for years. He'll be a massive signing for us.

[Jayson]

Finished 4-0, Vermaelen and Gervinho with one each, Podolski with two.

[BBfanUSA]

US and Mexico play an exhibition tonight at Azteca Stadium in Mexico City, first time in 3 years.

US has Clint Dempsey (Fulham), Tim Howard (Everton), Landon Donovan (Loaned to Everton twice and is thinking of transfering to Everton when the MLS Season is over) Also other big names include Micheal Bradley (AS Roma, recently signed, scored in his first game with the club in a American Exhibition vs Liverpool)

America has never won against Mexico in Mexico I don't think. Should be a good game, but I expect US to lose by 1.

[BBfanUSA]

Looks like Dempsey and Bradley weren't there. But it doesn't matter the US won 1-0.

Thanks to epic saves by Howard when Chicharito tooks shots as the game was winding down and some guy who I haven't catched yet , it was basically bteams for both sides other than like 2 or 3 players.

First US Win vs Mexico in Mexico and first loss ever by the Mexican National Team in Azteca Stadium

[King Gizzard]

Let's not be silly

[Jayson]

Arsenal line up vs. Sunderland:

Szczesny

Jenkinson --- Mertesacker --- Captain Verminator --- Gibbs

Arteta --- Diaby
Cazorla

Walcott --- Podolski --- Gervinho


subs: GIROUD, Mannone, Djourou, Coquelin, Santos, Ramsey, Arshavin.


FFS WHY ISN'T GIROUD STARTING?!!??!

[Locke.]

Merson isn't a fan of Vaz Te

[Jayson]

Streams for each game will probably be on here: http://www.sportlemon.tv/c-1.html

[Brother Leon]

Arsenal's Full Backs can be got at. Huge weakness without Sagna.

[Jayson]

Would have preferred


Szczesny

Coquelin --- Mertesacker --- Captain Verminator --- Gibbs

Arteta --- Diaby
Cazorla

Walcott --- Giroud --- Podolski


Shame that Kos had to get injured and Song had to be a **** and demand huge wages really

[Novo]

Rangers v East Stirling is a sell out :worship:

[Jayson]

Watching the mighty Gunners on a French stream

[Jayson]

Watching the mighty Gunners on a French stream

[Novo]

Letting East Stirling have an early lead.. very generous

[MTVN]

Knew this was East Stirling's year

[michael21]

Watching the mighty Gunners on a French stream

losing in French is better for you i guess

[MTVN]

Green makes a howler, serves him right

[Brother Leon]

Bitter much,Matthew?

[MTVN]

Why would I be bitter when we've got Jussi :pipe:

[Novo]

ANDY LITTLE!!!!! And were still in the title race!!

[Jayson]

Arsenal are dominating, Cazorla is playing beautifully

[Jayson]

The only way we're not winning this is if their GK continues to play this well

[MTVN]

This West Ham Villa game is terrible

[MTVN]

But we're 1-0 up :worship:

[Brother Leon]

West Ham 1-0


Fulham 2-0

[Novo]

Gera!!!!!

[Jayson]

Shock of the season so far is that Gervinho is playing well

[Brother Leon]

Sup Locke?

[Jayson]

Half time but we could be at least 3-0 up by now

Clearly the lads are deliberately not scoring so that they don't get the fans' hopes up

[Locke.]

No worries, Suarez is terrorrizing their centre backs, we'll get back in this.

Nothing we could have done about the goal, it was amazing

[Jayson]

Am I the only one who predicted a West Brom win?

[Locke.]

And we have the big man on the bench, guaranteed at least a goal if we bring him on

[Novo]

Record Attendance for a fourth tier match, East Stirling think they are playing in the Champions League final

[Jayson]

Think we've brought Giroud on but I'm not sure because I don't speak French

[Brother Leon]

Red for Agger :joker:

[Jayson]

No wait we haven't because he's still warming up

[Jayson]

Podolski or Arteta about to score a free kick

[Jayson]

The wind clearly blew the ball away from the top corner and over the bar

[Locke.]

Reina you hero

[Brother Leon]

2-0 WBA


:joker:

[Locke.]

Oh my god are you having a laugh

[Jayson]

ffs I predicted 1-0

Was it Lukaku?

[Novo]

Goal!!!!!!!

[Locke.]

What the **** is going on seriously, 2 penalties in about 3 minutes, this is disastrous

[Novo]

Swansea 3-0

[Jayson]

GIROOOOOOUUUUUDDDD





Has come on for Podolski

[MTVN]

Fulham destroying Norwich 4-0

[Jayson]

Hopefully Fulham will win big and think that they'll be fine without Dempsey and then sell him to us

[Locke.]

Shane Long has gone off, thank god

[Jayson]

Diaby off for Ramsey

We've lost

[Brother Leon]

QPR getting hammered.


Great to see.

[Shaun]

rofl Liverpool

[Jayson]

Arshavin on for one of our best players today, Gervinho

[Novo]

Liverpool :joker:

[Locke.]

A nice late leaving present for Steve Clarke, hope he is happy that we let them win

[Jayson]

Wait it wasn't Gervinho, we still have a chance

[Shaun]

:joker: QPR

...to think I said Swansea and West Brom would be relegated.

[Locke.]

Turned it off, it's depressing enough as it is and from the looks of things they'll get another one

[michael21]

ffs I predicted 1-0

Was it Lukaku?

willcott played his last game for the gunners your team is doing bad :devil:

get ready to be mock

my team is the best plays later :dance::dance::dance:

[Jayson]

Giroud just had a great chance

If we don't win this I'll cry

[Brother Leon]

Can see a Van Persie winner for Arsenal coming soon...

[MTVN]

Two 5-0's and West Brom 3 up against Liverpool, eventful first day

[Jayson]

We've got Arteta for the clutch performances

[Locke.]

Joe Cole comes on, touches the ball twice, tweaks his hamstring (for the second time this season already, it happened against Gomel aswell), and then gets subbed again. Absolute waste of ****ing space

[Novo]

Two 5-0's and West Brom 3 up against Liverpool, eventful first day

And we can't forget that world record attendance up in Scotland

[Novo]

Wonder what the odds are on Andy Little scoring more goals then Messi this season

[Jayson]

Corner...

[Jayson]

ffs

[Brother Leon]

Disappointing performance by Arsenal. RVP just didn't show up. Troll

[Novo]

My goalkeeper and defenders all had clean sheets but my strikers and midfielders failed.. the story of my fantasy football life :bored:

[MTVN]

Villa were shocking, shame Maiga had that effort cleared off the line last minute

Should never have sacked Big Eck Nathan http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20090719103251/runescape/images/2/22/Wave_smiley.gif

[Jayson]

I care more about Song going than RVP going.

But yes slightly disappointing but wasn't expecting a win, Sunderland are always a problem for us and what with all the drama surrounding Arsenal I think a point will do fine, despite the fact that we bossed the whole game.

I can always take solace in the fact that I'm not a Liverpool fan, as well.

[Locke.]

At least Arsenal failed to win aswell, hopefully Spurs and Chelsea drop points too, then we'll make up for this mess against City next week

[Jayson]

Song off to Barca then

Anything over £15m and I'll be happy

[Brother Leon]

What do Barca need with Song??

[Novo]

#LOLerpool trending

[Jayson]

They just like taking our midfielders

[Jayson]

No need to worry though as in a month or two this will be our line-up


Szczesny

Sagna --- Koscielny --- Vermaelen --- Gibbs

Arteta/M'Vila --- Wilshere/The Ox
Santi/Wilshere

Walcott/Ox --- Giroud/Podolski --- Podolski/Gervinho

[Jayson]

£15m for Song with an £80m release fee :shocked:

In a year's time he'll be begging to go just like Hleb

[Marc]

:bored:

[Locke.]

89% - Liverpool had a pass completion at 89% vs WBA today, the best they've had since @EPLIndex started up (4 years ago).

Something positive, at least

[MTVN]

Newcastle 1-0 up, great goal from Ba

[MTVN]

Liverpool fan on 606 just had a massive go at Savage telling him what a terrible player he was and that he should go back to Dancing on Ice instead of being an idiot and talking out his ass :joker: :joker:

SPL, SFL 1, 2 & 3 combined attendance = 47,276 ; Ibrox attendance = 49,118

[Jayson]

What was the Newcaste vs. Spurs score in the end?

[MTVN]

2-1 to Newcastle, Ben Arfa scored a pen after Defoe equalised I think. Pards got sent to the stands after shoving the linesman :joker:

[King Gizzard]

We're actually playing some football now, very encouraging

No end product though :(

Rather that then hoofball Fat Sam every week though

[MTVN]

Hoofball that completely outplayed you :idc: great game for James Collins don't you think Nathan :pipe:

[Novo]

I did vote James Collins as Villa's player of the season last year and Nathan laughed at me like i was a filthy commoner.. he isn't laughing anymore :idc:

[Jayson]

Looking forward to MOTD

[Samuel.]

Hadn't even realised the season had started already. I'm going to try and forget it has after seeing the results...

We're destined to have another awful season. Suarez should get out asap.

[Brother Leon]

Samuel's back!

[Locke.]

Suarez should get out asap.

What

[MTVN]

Very true Samuel, missed about 5 sitters today by the looks of things

[Brother Leon]

Suarez will ditch Liverpool soon enough.

What a day when the **** they defended so stupidly leaves them.

[King Gizzard]

:joker: James Collins is terrible. You'll see

Turns like a tractor

[Brother Leon]

Shearer & Hansen just said City will win the league.


Looks like we will be champions this season then.

[Samuel.]

Samuel's back!

Sort of :spin2:

What

It's not that I want him to go, but it's inevitable he will by the end of the season anyway, and we're not going to achieve anything between now and then regardless.

[Locke.]

He just signed a new long term contract, he's not leaving this season.

We should play him out wide though, he creates most of our chances but misses most of them aswell. Should give Borini a go through the centre

[Novo]

Really? that's good to know

[Locke.]

Just heard that Brendan is putting in a 500k bid for Andy Little

[Novo]

You can have David Healy he's available on a free

Hazard sets up for the first goal and wins the penalty for the second goal against Wigan, a wise choice to put him in my fantasy football team

[Brother Leon]

Might make a fantasy team.

What one do you fools use?

[Novo]

http://fantasy.premierleague.com/

[Jayson]

ffs Novo, first you use Giroud as your captain, then you put Hazard in your team, and then you predict 2-0 in this game

I'll report you, I swear

[Novo]

Now all i need from the City game is a Tevez Hat trick and for the game to finish 3-0

[Jayson]

Tevez will be subbed at half time

[Locke.]

Time for Southampton to pull of an upset.

Rodriguez 14/1 first scorer

[Jayson]

Jack Rodwell will be scoring 4 goals and proving why he is the best player of all time

[Jayson]

Aguero down

[Novo]

He's finished

[Jayson]

Could be out for a few months if it's a bad one :amazed:




























I mean, aw **** that's sad dude get well soon.

[Novo]

Looks like a Naismith type injury he got early on last year and he was out for the season

[Jayson]

ffs he's fine :(

[Novo]

he won't last long

[Jayson]

No wait he's off again

Doubt it's a bad one if he was able to get up and walk but could be gone a few weeks

[Novo]

You can run on a broken leg so you never know with injuries

[Jayson]

Not a bad one though

Didn't see Eduardo doing cartwheels after his injury did you?

[Jayson]

Pen

[Jayson]

Do you get points for Tevez winning the pen?

[Novo]

Eduardo's was two things in one so i'd expect not :joker:

[Jayson]

LOLOLOLOL :joker:

[Novo]

Yeah it counts as an assist :worship:

[Jayson]

Almost as bad as the pen yesterday

[Locke.]

Saved!

The Rodriguez bet is still alive

[Novo]

No!!!!!!!

[Jayson]

So does Tevez get any points now then?

[Novo]

No

[Novo]

However i think Silva gets -4 for missing a penalty

[Jayson]

Great news

[Locke.]

Yaya is my captain, and the only player I have that is playing in this match

[Novo]

Who had Silva?

[Jayson]

Only MC players in my team are Kompany, Clichy and Hart, so a clean sheet for the Mancs would be grand

[Jayson]

Imagine if you had the guy that missed the pen yesterday in your team and David Silva as captain :joker:

[Novo]

Nathan has Silva and Aguero :joker:

[Locke.]

Aguero is his captain aswell

[Jayson]

:joker:

[Novo]

good old Tevez

[Jayson]

He'll be scoring an own goal soon

[Jayson]

Well there goes the clean sheet and all of our predictions

[Locke.]

Lambert!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Novo]

Tevez will spoil the party

[Shaun]

[Jayson]

Get ready for everyone to start saying that Man City will never win the league again if it stays 1-1

[Jayson]

Holy **** :shocked:

Scholes getting terrorized out there

Thank **** for De Gea.


Kagawa is our only positive really. Bring on RVP so he can finish his chances.

[BB_Fan2012]

Why did fergie not start RVP :laugh:

How is this still 0-0 :joker:

With all these chances Everton are missing you just know what is coming

lol. The Arsenal fans getting at me are hilarious. IF we play like this in our home game, then feel free to make jokes about RVP. Not much he can do when Kagawa was the only one who remembered how to kick a ball over the summer.

[BBfanUSA]

Everton and Fellani :worship: watched the game on ESPN2 in the US with Ian Darke commentating.

It was like the best thing ever.

I'm also a ManU fan but more a Everton fan so that hurt and made me happy at the same time.

[Legend killer]

If Fergie wants to continue overlooking our joke of a midfield dues to his ego that's fine as long as he is willing to give Keane his over due apology and convince him to return because i would much rather have him in the midfield then the current ball less bums we have there at the moment
