But but but Dave said otherwise!

To be fair, I quite fancy Ba and Shola against Carrick & Jones. Especially with someone who can cross on the wing, even if he can't run. It'll be nice to see some early crosses into the box instead of a wander to the byline and then a cut inside

Well that's because we're a losing side

Fucking hell! Is that Giggs in holding midfield? Welbeck left, Nani right, Rooney in centre midfield, Valencia at right back...and a keeper who's never conceded in the Premiership.

Subs: Harper, Perch, Ben Arfa, Vuckic, Obertan, Best & Sammy

Could be worse, at least Taylor can cross. But HBA can't get in a midfield containing Ryan Taylor, or in a front line containing Shola. Just not right.

There is man. FA Cup

My main reason for wanting Gerrard in is to have a different player to everyone else. Do you think he will be starting games from now onwards, I dont even know what injury he had so will he be thrown back in or eased in? Berbatov could be a good shout, but chances are he will be an expensive unused sub I think. Edit: guess we'll find out tonight re Gerrard. If he starts im gonna rinse me wildcard. Is Adebayor off to the ACoN? I don't think he'll be starting for a few games, but would assume half hr sub apps. Berba's a risk that I'll probably chicken out of. I don't think Adebayor is off. When you think Gerrard will get half an hour tonight and then they have two cup games to get him up to speed, I think he'll start their next league match.

Did anyone see Soccer Saturday from the start on New Year's Eve? If so, any idea what song they used in the montage for the look back at 2011?

Regardless of how well they're playing, they still have a 0 next to them in the scoreline.

Obviously they defended well but City still managed 25 efforts on goal, it's not like they nullified them completely. It's a lot easier to defend when you have a back 9

Disgusting that Thompson celebrated that equaliser in the Sky studio

QPR 1 - 2 Norwich (Morison)

Love that Match of the Day is on tonight and Wednesday, no wonder they can't afford to show the Football league show

Blackburn score, come the fuck on.

They'll go out to Valencia, and their fixtures directly following the 2 legs aren't that bad. On the plus side, their next two away games are at Old Trafford and Anfield. It's Everton I'm most worried about, given that they are usually like a train in the second half of the season.

2-0 to Stoke. Fuck sake Blackburn

Sucks to be QPR then

Head to head with Bradley Johnson, the usual stupid footballer headbut

That in itself is a problem. We need someone who will be up to speed immediately whilst Ba is away.

Barton off. If that's a 3 match ban, he won't be at St James' in a few weeks

Stoke winning at Ewood

No Sturridge either

Macheda to QPR on loan
