Nearly chocked on my food when that happened... But I think my favourite goal of his is that karate backheel against Bastia. Just incredible how completely in control he seems of the whole situation.

So if someone is through on goal you just need anyone outside the box to slap an opponent and we're good for a stoppage... Extreme example obviously, but nah.

Also said he shook hands with Ashley at the end of the season on becoming the manager full time but then never heard anything back. Which soured him to the idea. Probably for the best for everyone.

Said at that talk in I went to a couple months ago that at this point he'd be very surprised if he ever went into management. Has been quite clear for a while that he'd gone off it.

I get the sense there's just so little else to bring fans at the ground some pride about the club. By the 17th minute this season we've usually either been behind or down to 10 men So come the time, many must think yeah let's do that thing.

Whaaaaaaaa....

One of my favourite active players. Pleased he gets a last hurrah on the international stage. Probably going to take it easy now with PSG until the Summer

What did he say, didn't catch it properly. He went for something risky. HBA may give it away 2/3, but that third one could be the one that opens up the defence. And importantly ended by also saying "he's brave on the ball".

Indeed, nice quote from him. Colback sitting in his living room in disbelief though.

He knows no other way.

Hatem and Gignac attacking in the same team... My Ultimate Team come to life!

Indeed, struck a nice balance.

Not really a fan of the Beckham bandwagon, but this is cool: http://i.imgur.com/c12bhYS.jpg

How's Julio doing? Still haven't been to a game But he's playing regularly, scored one today and his debut was 18 games ago now... so that can't be a complete coincidence.

South Shields looking for their 17th straight win today, were 1-0 down after 2 minutes. ... but then won 9-1

Saw that he was in the team earlier this afternoon... my first thoughts were for his knees and how I hoped they would both implode. Oh well.

Pff, they're obsessed.

Class body feint from Martial before putting it on a plate for Giroud.

Me too. Hatem would have bailed him out of tricky situations now and then. Of course he would have liked him.

Nice. The best from either side of the channel. One an all time great the other ... Zidane.

Our club? I would think most people have either forgotten, don't care, or believe Ben Arfa was a waster. Aye, don't underestimate the ability of the joyless buggers to bury their heads in the sand.

Yeah, likewise. I'm happy with holding on to this grudge forever.

Do we really count today as a clean sheet? http://i.imgur.com/xtcPfEd.gif

Two clean sheets with Colback out the side also. I'll choose to see a clear link between the two things.
