Amazing results! Savage really is a scumbag. He managed to get Rip sent off by pure play-acting, being stretchered off when there was nothing wrong with him, and he had gone into the tackle with the same approach as Rio, if anything a little more physically. What ashite result for Utd, we may have put them out of the Carling, but they've beaten us twice this season. The comedy mix-up between Rio and VDS was truly embarrassing, and Utd defended like a pub team. Vidic is meant to be the new Japp Stam, but doesn't look like he'll ever be the new Mikael Silvestre. At least Arse lost too, and Chelsea drew, and at least Henry got awarded that goal, quite rightly, my captain, you see.

And 10-man Brum managed a draw with Liverpool. That one shocked me. I had to take off early from work to get my kids at school and thought for sure that Liverpool had all three points in the bag.
Chelsea not really very good at the moment, but everybody else is falling to pieces.

Well if he does that in Germany, we're fucked. God it was painful. And Wes Brown's pointless penalty give-away. Sounded on the radio like Blackburn could well have had one given against them for similar reasons, so of course we should have made it 4-4. Well we should have won 4-1 really, but that's another matter.

How do you figure that? I watched it and ManU looked poor.Otis Westinghouse wrote:Well if he does that in Germany, we're fucked. God it was painful. And Wes Brown's pointless penalty give-away.

And Terry should have been called for handball in the Villa match (with a clear penalty on Robben going the other way). Bad night for England defenders.

We were shite. I mean Man Yoo should be beating a teamlike Blackburn 4-1, not losing twice to them in one season. Then again, they gave a good account of themselves, and fair dues to Bentley for heroics.Who Shot Sam? wrote:How do you figure that? I watched it and ManU looked poor.

I reckon Man Utd will beat Fulham 4-2 today.

Robben was just whinging and whining all through the match with the "Who me?" look. Very unsavoury.
Reina was silly but I though Benitez's post match comments were hilarious. He said Robben must have broken his neck and said he was in a hurry to get to the hospital to see Robben as it was so serious that perhaps he'd be out injured for two or three weeks.
Chelsea's pitch was awful and there were some quizzical looks from players whose control repeatedly let them down. I'm not sure what Peter Crouch's excuse was though.

Unfortunately sarcasm doesn't come across very well in Spanish. I think Mr. Potato Head's just a sore loser. They were down by two goals at the time and it should have been three. He was acting as if it was some critical turning point in the match. I'm developing a healthy hatred for Liverpool.verbal gymnastics wrote:Reina was silly but I though Benitez's post match comments were hilarious.

If there's a better midfielder in the country than Michael Carrick at the moment, I haven't seen him. Even Gerrard and Lampard have looked ordinary recently next to him. As a Spurs fan, I have learned to be nervous when a man in white gets the ball in midfield, but when Carrick gets it, I just sit back and chill - he just holds it up before delivering a pass out of heaven. If Sven and Tord don't select him for the World Cup, they should fuck off early. He's been the most consistent English midfielder and is ideal for the holding role behind Gerard, Lampard and Beckham.
Ps. I see that Sol's found his Olanzapine then!

I don't think so. I think he was acting in pretty much the same way as any neutral (although he's not of course) football fan would. Have you seen the incident? You can't deny that Robben's reaction was, to be kind, exaggerated.Who Shot Sam? wrote:...They were down by two goals at the time and it should have been three.

Yes, I saw it replayed about five times on the highlights show. Robben's reaction was over the top and uncalled for, but it doesn't change what I am saying. I think it was a convenient way for Benitez to deflect criticism from what looked to be a pretty poor Liverpool performance, and the incident had no effect on the outcome of the match.verbal gymnastics wrote:I don't think so.
