I think Nobby would be pissed off at starting at right-back, but I'd definitely give it a crack against Pompey. Seemingly no worse than Carr defensively and miles better on the ball.

He looks competent at centre-half, but he's utter, utter shit at left-back.

Great win. If we could play in the PL like we do in Europe we'd win the league. Great composure, good passing, came from behind, two good goals, nothing particularly stupid, patient. Like a different team. Thought everyone played well except Luque and Ramage. Solano looks a better right-back than Carr, tbh. Thought Butt was having a good game and was surprised to see him come off. Having said that, Parker played some excellent balls when he came on, although he possibly didn't have the discipline of Butt. A good professional performance, really, like every match so far in Europe.

Hold on, you seriously think Boro are going to challenge for the title?

Dunno why Neville gets knocked so much. He's been a top player for donkeys now. He's looked good so far this season whenever I've seen him and he's barely put a foot wrong for England and in fact has been our best player in quite a few competitive matches.

Dunno, like. AFAIK, we've only won three times this season and two of those wins are down to goals from Parker. Sorry, I was referring to Luque from the previous post. Gotcha. The Bramble tackling stat doesn't surprise me. His tackling is normally very good, it's just his terrible fuck-ups--marking, positioning, ball-watching, air-kicks--that get people on his back.

Don't agree at all. They're two different types of player so I don't know why we're comparing them in the first place. Also, Man Utd have excellent movement off the ball. We don't.

True dat.

This news should be catatrophic, but the fact that I hardly give a toss just goes to show how poor Duff's been so far this season. We've got cover in Zoggy, Luque, Emre, and Milner.

Ha. Another Invicta own-goal.

I rate Bouba Diop, but I'm not sure he's a better player than Butt (although his physical presence is obviously far greater). I'd go for Distin, at the right price.

We're going to kidnap his children.

Who gives a toss? He's average as fuck.

Oh aye, cos' they barely had a sniff apart from that, like. :roll:

Dyer! Dyer! Dyer! Dyer!

Let's not gan bonkers. They still had about 3,000 shots on goal and Given had to make at least 3 excellent saves to deny them. Arsenal always have those chances with any team they play so the fact that we restricted their game that much shows me that we defended well. The only time I believe our defence was breached was when Fabregas had his left footed shot and maybe when Henry tried to curl it in. At other times, it was just shots which were thumped from outside the box. Arsenal were never able to do their intricate passing within our area or have multiple one-on-ones that they always do against other teams. This shows that, to me, at least today, we defended well. Bollocks, tbh. They did everything but score.

Aye, but I've been wondering that all season not just today.

Chuffed with a point, I suppose. But we definitely rode our luck. If they'd managed to get their finishing together it could've 6-1 easy. But a gutsy, all-hands-to-the-pump performance. Chuffed with--and for--Dyer who I thought looked our only classy player.

Really, you've just got to expect this stuff if you're in the public eye in the 21st century. I'd hate to think the kind of mail the likes of Beckham gets. Alongside the crazed fans wanting his kids, I bet you've got some proper bloody nutters.

I'd stick Taylor up front, tbh. I'm quite serious. I think he's got a better eye for goal than the majority of our strikers, offers a bigger presence, and is better in the air.

We're idiots and keep giving it to the club.
