Went to get some dinner there when it was still 0-0. So only just seen that Everton are leading 1-0, excellent.

Urgh, Clive and Andy commentating.

Howay Everton.

Apparently, it's "close to a capacity crowd" at the SoS

A Peterborough win tonight would be great btw.

Well he hasn't always been the brightest individual like..... He's probably constantly telling himself that "things will improve" to make himself feel better about Liverpool's current shitness.

Zidane Président!

We tied Man U at home a few years back with a back four of Solano Taylor Huntington Edgar. Crazier things have happened. Edgar scored the equaliser that day too. Roeder was very pleased (the surprised look he had was quite funny!).

Injured isn't he?

An all English backline

50k a week is still a bit excessive for players of the Brown/O'Shea calibre. If O'Neill is given a lot of money to spend this summer, can see it going quite badly for them (going by his history with Villa). Sure, he'll be able to bring his "own players" in but he is somewhat prone to leave them out for no apparent reason (see Sidwell, Beye etc.). That'll mean money down the drain and the mackems' financial situation being, well, precarious. I mean, Villa are still trying to sort out their finances as far as I'm aware! Also if Sessegnon does leave this summer, can really see them struggling next season.

Why not Jonas on the right ? He knows Enrique very well. Enrique knows Jonas very well, more importantly. If Enrique is the same attacking full back he was at Newcastle, Hatem will struggle. Defensively, Enrique has been a bit suspect recently so can see Ben Arfa giving Jose a hard time. Someone mentioned this a few weeks ago that Enrique actually struggles against players who cut inside so Hatem is basically the best player to handle Jose (so to speak).

True. The number of decisions that have gone Man U's way these past 15+ years or so is quite ridiculous.

Rio's Twitter: Not that it matters too much now but Rio was lucky not to give away a penalty when we played Man U at St. James' Park. The universe balanced there and then, analogy stuff and all that.

It was mentioned in the Other Games Today thread. Easy to lose track of other news in there tbf.

(That was a quality show btw!).

I liked Stephen Glass. Unspectacular player but looked decent when called upon (from what I remember anyway).

Ah feck sake

Not watching game but I guessing he's been diving all over the place again?

I bet he appreciates that

I see Man U are leading. Meh.

Me too. (for Fantasy Football reasons more than anything )

Would like to see Ben Arfa at the Euros. However, don't think I'll support France though (apologies!) Despite their shitness these past few years (and the number of twats in the team), England are still my preferred team on the international stage.

Best not to think about such a scenario.
