Their defending is still a bit suspect. We've scored 5 goals in the qualifiers yet could've easily scored couple in Paris.

CAUSE HE'S OLD AND SLOW!!!1

Debuchy with two great crosses inside a minute. First resulted in a goal, Remy hit the post from the other.

Cabaye and Remy on, 70 minutes played.

Jealous, well done.

Debuchy the only one starting.

Amazing shot by Ribery. 1-0

I knew one Australian man who was exactly like you described. He was great with horses and an absolute gentleman. Froggy knows him too. Everything went well at first and Froggy was printing money. Everyone was smiling and buying him bottles of Scotch. It ended in tears when I found out he was full of s**** and not a single tip was a winner for me. Haven't heard about him in months.

I need updates.

Wow, amazing shot.

Oscar.

We were assuming that Colo is leaving in January or in the following summer. Also you can't really tell who will be ready from the get go. Rather get MYM when he's available than Tomkins or some other clogger.

thought we dominated them in the first half and could easily have been another couple of goals up. Aye, they didn't have a sniff at our goal while we could've scored 4.

2-2 Morata

Great play by Totti that started the attack.

Totti.

We were pressing them high and looked dangerous in the first half. Continued the same high pressing after the HT and were totally cruising to the win. Then they scored a soft goal due to an individual error which unsurprisingly got the crowd back in to the game and lifted their players. We still dealt with them well and Mutch was the only one creating anything for them while we could have scored couple more. It's quite usual for a promoted team to get a spark from an undeserved goal that got the crowd back in the game. I just can't see this second half as the usual Pardew effect when we are leading at HT. I want Pardew sacked but at least give the man some credit when he's done well or just stay out of this thread for a couple of days..

Was Robert-esque, absolutely loved it. Bastards only showed one replay tho.

Definitely better, but faded again. The whole midfield looked tired due to the high pressing.

Great win and a brilliant first half. Can't really blame Pardew for the second half as they created nothing before the mistake that led to the goal and we started the half alright. The goal was always going to lift the crowd and the players but we still handled them well and their only chances were from Mutch who looked good. Despite being under the pressure for the last 30 minutes we were still creating chances too which was a big positive. Cabaye had one of his best games for us and was everywhere. Remy of course was great and Tiote had his best game in ages. Jonas is always going to be a useful sub in a game like this and I was positively surprised with Pardew for the HBA sub, which was still maybe 15 minutes too late. It's nice to win.

That post was probably written before the game started.

I guess you didn't watch him that closely. He was perfect for the first 60 minutes, not a single mistake and won the ball back a lot. Kept it very simple with passes that Anita would be praised for. Lost the ball once or twice after that and misplaced couple of passes. Still one of the best for us alongside Cabaye and Remy.

No wonder as you didn't know who you bet it on.

Ouch.
