Also we are fourth mates, and pool and arse aren't even in the european spots

 

[Billargh]

I like the sound of 'joint with Swansea and Spurs, and under Southampton'. Makes it sounds a lot less impressive

 

[miri]

Yeah but Cahill should also have been off for a reckless challenge, dirty from both teams.

I'll take one for us if their three are given.

 

[Madmaxx]

Jesus Rob Green, dodgy keeper

 

[Lethul]

Jesus, Pastore is starting to look like the Pastore that was seen in Serie A.

And David Luiz looks like the clumsy self we all love to make fun off

One point and you were lucky against Everton tbh.

Luck is what wins you stuff.

[Embattle]

Same old Harry, plenty of money spent but same old crap QPR it seems.

Well would be the first time we been near it for a long time so might as well give arsenal a run for it this year

I think 4th is a pretty good target for UTD this year, they absolutely have to get a champions league spot or they are fucked. 1 year out they can put up with, 2 years, no way.

 

[CorNokZ]

Hoe come, Raven?

Looks like Welbeck will fit right in as a typical spineless Arsenal player - do fuck all for 90 minutes and then go HAM when you're 2-0 down to show how you really do care, but it was someone else's fault you got shafted all game.

Put a pic up of the Cahil challenge, should have been a straight red.

And Sanchez punching Ivanovic? (not that I think Ivanovic even noticed tbh)

 

[Raven]

Hoe come, Raven?

Money, a lot of their income, especially sponsorship is based on whether or not they get in the Champions league. Plus the extra they will have to pay players to convince them to turn down champions league clubs to play for UTD. All equaling a bad balance sheet that also needs to support huge debts.

The longer it goes on the harder it will be to get it sorted.

 

[Vladamir]

Sanchez trying to punch Ivan? Doesn't matter, Ivan's an 'ard bastard!

No shit Sherlock, entirely not the point I was making. Cahill's challenge was definitely a straight red, but as I said earlier I'd take him going off if the referee actually gave the 3-4 clear reds for Arsenal.

I liked what he said about Robbie Savage:

"I rang Mark Hughes about Robbie Savage. Robbie wasn't in the Blackburn team and I asked Mark if we could try to do a deal, a permanent or loan deal," Keane reveals in his book Roy Keane: The Second Half.

"Robbie's legs were going a bit, but I thought he might come up to us at Sunderland, with his long hair, and give us a lift, the way Dwight Yorke had - a big personality in the dressing room.

"Sparky gave me permission to give him a call. So I got Robbie's mobile number and rang him.

"It went to his voicemail: 'Hi, it's Robbie - whazzup!' - like the Budweiser ad.

"I never called him back. I thought 'I can't be f****** signing that'."

Savage responded in good spirits, tweeting "Oh come on Roy whattttsuppppppppp !!!! Hahahaha"

Also, Ozil arrived at training for Germany with a knee problem, has had an MRI and will be out for 10-12 weeks.

Roy Keane is such a deficient human being.

 

[CorNokZ]

I liked the bit where him and Peter got in a brawl

 

[Billargh]

I'm curious to read his book like but there's no way I'm paying for it, not having that tosser get any kind of money out of me.

 

[Hawkwind]

Sanchez trying to punch Ivan? Doesn't matter, Ivan's an 'ard bastard!

Looked more like two shoving each other, need the hi rez to see it properly. Ivan goes in two handed shove and Sanchez tries to shove back but pretty much misses. The fact that a blue shirt yards away only signals for the throw and Ivan did not turn and confront him say enough for me. Nice try though . I saw two instances that could have been reds for Arsenal. Nasty game from two decent footballing sides that should not need it.

Cahill one was the first if memory serves and pretty set the tone for a bad tempered game. I only saw two (worthy reds) on Arsenal but there was a lot going on off the ball. JT for one was picked upped by the coverage here, slapped Wilshire acros the back of the head.

Koscielny one was obvious, Chambers second yellow was obvious, Welbeck two footed challenge was obvious and Sanchez punched Ivanovic in the face, which admittedly wasn't picked up on TV but still equally as clear. Don't disagree that Cahill should have gone, but STILL you entirely missed the point of my post.
