Spanish media reporting that Mata is all but on the way to Chelsea, and the Guardian is saying it too. If this is true, then definitely good for Mata to get out of the sinking ship that is Valencia and move on to a team that gives him a better chance at winning some trophies. He'll do good for Chelsea. He's similar to David Silva in that he can pretty much play anywhere on the field, but he has a better eye for goal.
On the toob now to Shepherds Bush to catch the coach. Got me Rs top, tickets and Beer money at the ready,
Howard Webb is a fat-headed cock sock. How the fuck can neither he nor his linesman see that handball? MTF
In fairness, Liverpool got 3 points against an Arsenal side lacking their best players, then who had a man sent-off, then who conceded an own-goal. A win is a win when you've won, but its not like Liverpool pulled up too many tree's either.
Qpr played very well today: used the ball well, and worked like fuck (Esp Derry). We were shite, but could easily have had a goal at some point.
So so so happy. On the coach back, well deserved 3pts. Everton had their chances. Baines hit the bar with a free kick in first half. Smith took his goal brilliantly! Taarabt was less selfish. Derry as always quality.
The one thing the game showed me is Suarez is clearly their best player. I'm not sold on Carroll. Seems the guy is content with hanging around centerfield hoping to score on headers. On the one hand it's wise to use his height to his advantage; but unlike Saurez he isn't moving well without the ball...mainly hanging around one spot waiting for it to come to him.
:: Howard Webb said he had a "head-ache" after the game. Anyways...Steve Bruce. He has a big fat head. A big fat head. He's got a big fat head. And I don't mean penile, either.
I wasn't mate. I'd managed to swerve the wedding so I could go but woke up this morning feeling sick. I feel like bloody Earl Hickey.
Nice ground mate. Tough place to go. We kept you quiet most of the game. Delighted at the cheap beers too .
Fuck. :TLC: You and your mate, Slice have now got bragging rights over me when we meet up in London. I'm just hoping we don't have to wait a month into the season for a league victory like last season. Last season we took out some frustration and pounded Huddersfield in the Carling Cup second round. Wednesday we have Sheffield United at Goodison. :shadow: Useless Trivia Fact: Sheffield U were the first team in all of sports to add the term "United" to their club name.
Carroll was dominated aerially by a 5'10 Vermaelen. To be honest he didn't look interested out there and his fitness needs a lot of work.
Does his fitness need work, sure it does. But he worked hard and had Scezcny or whatever it is scrambling after he got the better of a pair of Arsenal defenders. Vermaelen is a class central-back. No problem having a tough day with him. I don't even think that that was Carrolls what, 10th start for Liverpool since January???
This is true. That header was against Miquel and Sagna. Really showed Liverpools depth being able to bring Meireles and Suarez off the bench. Also depressing seeing Jenkinson run around like a headless chook while Enrique carved up.
I didn't mate. We got to the ground at 1.30pm, so I went straight into the ground and to the bar to sink down a few bottles of fosters and take in the atmosphere. I can't wait for the home game against the Toffees.
Have you ever seen Enrique with his shirt off? Guy looks like a freaking light-heavyweight Seeing the guy taking the ball out of defence is such a breath of fresh air, especially in comparison to the technically superior but physically inferior Aurelio. Did you read the furore about Meireles finger? Loads of Liverpool fans were cracking up, thinking he was sticking his finger up at Kenny Dalglish. Apparently he was "replying" in kind to what Frimmpong {who looks a player} did to Lucas in the tunnel.
