What is happenning with the Allar-dice?

Purely apathetic performance by Chelsea. Manchester United lack the cutting edge still though. Villa and Everton and Blackburn and Portsmouth are all inconsistent. Spurs and Bolton are in a real rut. Will Lee or Jol be the next boss to go?

So are you calling that a "7" for N'Zogbia overall then, or what? Attack is more important than defence when it comes to winning matches, so he can have an 8.

Harper - 7 N'Zogbia - Defensively, 5. Offensively, 9. Cacapa - 6 (Taylor - n/a) Rozehnal - 6.5 Beye - 7.5 Milner - 6 Geremi - 6.5 Butt - 7 Smith - 6.5 Viduka - 8 (Enrique - n/a) Owen - 6 (Martins - 6)

That he isn't allowed to play at left back in the first place. It is not a criticism of the player. All players have weaknesses. Similar stuff could be said of Shearer at left back. I'm just pointing out that we would be much better if he played somewhere else, as I think some on here are overrating his ability as a left back.

Nothing that couldn't have been done in a left wing position. Until we get midfielders of immense attacking ability, playing Zog at left back compromises the team both defensively (because his defensive attributes aren't great) and offensively (because he is being held back by defensive responsibilities)

Stupid comment, dont think anyone believes Zog wants to play there. He's an attacking player and always has been. Not a stupid comment at all, it is clear from both derby and West ham that the opposition know his weakness in that position and will act accordingly.

Was still an outstanding attacking performance mind, but everything he did well today was what we would want to see from a very good left winger.

Not good enough, and has been found out. It showed today that he hates being under any pressure, gives the ball away too much, players are able to run inside and behind him, gets turned easily, can only tackle when tracking back. No coincidence that West ham looked most threatening down their right hand side. Unsettled Cacapa as well, who gave him a real bollocking at one point. Stick him in midfield.

A very solid and energetic performance. Not the best end product, but I wont really criticise him for that.

Who misses the pen then? Us or Wham? George Michael

Allardyce has been hinting towards an Owen/Martins partnership. Given Beye Rozehnal Cacapa Taylor Milner Geremi Smith N'Zogbia Owen Martins

The Bristol Rovers tea lady. According to Ian Holloway, she saw Martyn playing in a Sunday league game while she was on holiday in Cornwall, and arranged a trial at Rovers. A week later he was in the first team.

I can't stand it when people make references to how good players are on games, or any shite like that. Although, his style of play suits a midfield position, apart from his finishing that is. I can't stand it when people take everything I post seriously.

Actually you can just about see Zoggy's new haircut, so they were recent pics.

There was a competition with that as the prize, but for some reason, it didn't happen.

Those individual photos must have been taken a while ago given Beye and Faye's absence, and the fact that Zog doesn't have his new haircut.

Those are good individual photos to be honest. Way better than previous editions.

Enrique looking left out

He's started all but two Premiership games, and he has had enough time on the pitch to make an impact as a substitute in the other games.

Is doing well there for me in Football Manager - has scored few goals, got a few assists and got an average of 7.71 in this European Super League I downloaded.

do you not remember how s*** Del Horno was?? It was between him and Babayaro. What abt enrique???Zog would be better lb than Del Horno as well! I'm leaving out Zoggy and Enrique because this is a stupid pisstake.

do you not remember how shit Del Horno was?? It was between him and Babayaro.

If there is one manager I'd love to see knock Tottenham out of the UEFA cup, it is Temuri Ketsbaia.
