Fucking hell Stoke. Talk about throwing it away.

No more than they deserve, 2nd best all night and should be down to 8 men.

Dirty cunts.

 

[caLLous]

Stoke should always be down to 8 men. Stoke should start with 8 men, they're so 'orrible.

 

[soze]

We were utter dog shit tonight. They were too good a team to try out a midfield like that. Joel Campbell cya mate that should be the last time you wear an Arsenal shirt. Ox is unfortunate but Theo is unforgivable. Why not let him warm up for 5 minutes? If them too are out for 6 weeks we are heading into the festive period another 3 players down.

I would love to blame the injuries or the red card that should have been but Wednesday were just a better team. Arsenal do not currently have a reserve team capable of beating Championship teams.

 

[caLLous]

Haha, who'd have thought Hazard's would be saved!

 

[Embattle]

I just knew Hazard wouldn't manage to convert that pen.

Question: How was Diego Costa injured? José Mourinho: "I think he punched himself..."

 

[Raven]

Nicked from the BBC. "You what m8?"

 

[Lethul]

The worst thing is that Chelsea will definitely raise their game this weekend and beat us comfortably

 

[Lethul]

Benteke injured....

 

[Scouse]

Benteke injured....

Turns out @Raven was right!

 

[Raven]

I would rather he wasn't injured tbh, Liverpool might score now.

Who do you reckon will do that?

 

[Raven]

I know who I would vote for

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/34655656

Tokyo Sexwale

Best name ever.

 

[Raven]

Who do you reckon will do that?

Stick my mum in a number 9 shirt and she would score more than Benteke

 

[Scouse]

I would rather he wasn't injured tbh, Liverpool might score now.

He's played well and scored a decent amount - I think 3 in 7 (in a struggling injury-hit team) - and he's been a sub more than once in those seven games and not been fully fit at any point, so it looks like you're wrong on that.

However, fitness is the issue for all our strikers. (And I don't count origi as a striker, he's got nothing about him that I can see).

Your mum scored at the weekend but I can assure you it was a different kind of scoring.

Haha, yeah, keep telling yourself that

38 million pounds

She has to earn me money somehow!

Benteke scores plenty. No problem when he is fit.
Hopefully Firmino is fit and ahead of Origi in the striker position.

You seen Origi play?

 

[Lethul]

Haha, yeah, keep telling yourself that

38 million pounds

That number seems to go up every time you post it, strange!

 

[caLLous]

I reckon Bournemouth will come out swinging tonight after the thumpings they've had recently.

 

[Scouse]

Haha, yeah, keep telling yourself that

38 million pounds

I don't need to keep telling myself the actual statistics in the same way you don't need to keep inflating his transfer fee...

Lollerpool Chelsea game.

100/1 odds atm for Lollerpool to win 2.1 with Hazard to score first.

Don't mind if I do. Hazard looked a bit better the other night and he has to score at some point, coupled with Chelsea's inability to defend I reckon the result seems reasonable too.

Apart from lollerpools capability to score more than one goal with no strikers

 

[Raven]

Which is why only 2 is a pretty good shout.

There is no point betting on nailed on results and the game will likely be 0.0

I place 5x £1 bets with long odds a week, over £200 won so far this season from 3 games Although I haven't been doing it every week, just when I can be arsed. Hardly did it at all last season but the season before I made about £1500 (less stakes)

 

[Scouse]

Think Chelski will win...

 

[Bodhi]

If we keep up recent performances we should be OK I reckon. We ere damn unlucky against Stoke RFC in the week.

 

[Scouse]

I'm actually going to bin the big day cycling off tomorrow and watch the match.

To be fair, the match alone wasn't enough to get me to bin the cycling off - we're gonna get up early, small cycle to a cafe for breakfast, pub for cheap thai food and the match, tram into town to watch SPECTRE, tram back to another pub for burger, real ale and live music whilst we dodge the trick-or-fucking-treaters and then back home to bed drunk.

Then big cycling on Sunday instead


But we'll still lose

Might help explain some of the dark times round Chelsea recently. Thankfully it sounds like his dad's on the mend, but Jebus, 2 strokes and a brain haemorrhage put it all into perspective...
