I have to say the ref did get some of the calls wrong today it was not a free kick and it was not a penalty. Still was a good win and a good 2nd half performance.

 

[Turamber]

Or bring dunne back in?

Why would Villa sell? And would he want to go back after he was treated so shockingly?

 

[Ch3tan]

It was a joke turamber, man shitty seem to think money will get them whatever they want.

 

[cHodAX]

For £50 million they can have Berbtov and Ferdinand.

 

[soze]

£50mil and they pay to sack Rafa i think the Yanks would sell torres for that

I would sell my arse and yours for that!

wtf Higuain! one of the best goals I've seen this season.

also, Piquionne was a beast for portsmouth today. I thought he was a monaco player.

 

[cHodAX]

Another goal for Ronaldo, the guy is a fucking monster.

 

[cHodAX]

ooh page 200 inc!

 

[Turamber]

How good were Fulham today? Their passing and movement was in stark contrast to Liverpool's laboured efforts. How the mighty are fallen.

I've scored better. Not bad though, if he had hit it before the bounce it would qualify as 'w0nderg0al!'.

Michael Owen is better:

 

[megadave]

I lol'd hard. Owen for England yeah? xD


that Zaragoza team was dire, it looked like real madrid playing against moving training cones

 

[Turamber]

Gotta love the way the Spanish celebrate their goals. And this is really not a desperate attempt to get page 200, no sirree bob.

 

[megadave]

half way through page 75, clicking next page all the time is for suckers

10,000 posts and 100,000 views is something to aim for by the last day of the season.

 

[Lethul]

I never see you talking much about your league, let alone Göteborg Lethul..

Since I only live in Göteborg since I study here I dont see a reason to do it

edit: besides, what does that matter?

 

[Corran]

that was a pretty sweet goal.

And Fulham were great today. fully deserved the win. Utd going to struggle badly unless we get some players back. Can see us in a battle for 2nd and not the title at this rate

Really dont understand the formation though, especially with the fact he didnt change at half time... I knew we would go 2-0 down if he didnt change it up and he just left it as was. Fergi really needed to go 4-4-2, scholes off, obertan on, anderson into the middle. But what do i know

We have a pretty decent reserve defence that he has chosen not to play, massive mistake by Fergie and those young lads will have had thier confidence shaken after not being picked with 7 first team defenders out. I have no worries with Fletcher in the centre of the park but Scholes is not consistent enough to be the lynchpin these days.

 

[soze]

Just heard on a phone in a Liverpool "insider" has confirmed Rafa is on his way out and O'Niel will replace him. Is it just me or is that not really a step up Liverpool may be the "bigger" club but currently Villa have the better board and are on a better finacial state.

That's entirely the manager's decision, though. I suppose it's a policy that's served Fergusson well: his record speaks for itself. I think it's wise going with old heads - but I see your point about putting kids in the team. I think it's more prudent to put just one kid in with a bunch of vets so 1.They learn more and 2.Their mistakes don't have the same impact.

Inside what? Inside his own crayzee mind...

We have Corry Evans, Reece Brown who could both step up. I think they are also injured, not seen them lately in reserves.
We also have Simpson, Chester, Cathcart, Gray all out on loan who could have stepped in.

My only moan from yesterday was why have Fabio on bench when he could have slotted in at full back, that would have freed up Fletcher to play in midfield. We really miss him when he isn't playing that role. No Hargreaves until end of January, could have done with him now, as he can play numerous positions.

But no team can cope without 7 defenders for weeks on end, we got away with it at Wolfsburg, but a defeat was always on the cards having midfielders at CB.

Still confident though, we usually kick on after Xmas

Fucking LOL, did someone time travel forward to April 1st?

More on Hughes sacking, quotes from the LMA boss:

BBC Sport - Football - Mark Hughes 'left in dark' by Man City over sacking

Very interesting that Hughes claims he was told that he was to aim for a top 6 finish this season, seems the club decided they wanted more after agreeing goals with him.

Wolves winning so Micks gamble has paid off. Was interesting hearing Andy Grays view this one Whats happens if all bottom 6 teams start taking weakened teams to the top six does the Premiership lose some of its famous excitement?

Everton all over Birmingham today!

4-0 would be lovely!
