Carew off? Yes! Thank God. Still makes me nervous the big guy.

Heskey on the wing?! Thought they'd put him in the box with Carew and bombard us. Hey. I'm certainly not complaining.

James Perch is superstar!

Coloccini the master.

Williamson is a really good player.

The joy and pain of a Kevin Nolan goal ... great because we've scored, but disconcerting because he tightens his grip on a first team place.

So relieved we didn't concede before halftime. Absolutely massive.

Barton makes such a huge difference to our midfield it's crazy. He's running things in there.

Hughton has also clearly worked on our short passing a fair bit. It's not always perfect, but we're not afraid to try and play the ball around a bit.

Proud of Perch today. Been solid.

Alan Smith is so bad at goal scoring he tackled himself when through on goal.

THE BIG FREAKIN' AC! OH YEAH!

James Perch world class okay?!!!

All credit to Andy Carroll.

If Nolan didn't score there I would have exploded with rage.

God is beautiful and kind ...

Really upset about that Barton yellow card. So unnecessary, need him on the pitch.

Nolan is hopeless.

Barton is class!!!

Great ball by Barton. Nolan's lack of pace costing us upfront!

That is awesome. My favourite penalty ever.

Harper is terrible.

I'm really not that hung up on this whole Ben Arfa thing, as long as we bring in a similar type of player in the creative/attacking midfielder mold. We have also been linked with Skjlbred and Huselkepp for example. As long as it's not a Jimmy Bullard.

I think a physical, dynamic midfielder is just as important to our survival as a more attacking one.

 

Kudos to the board and Hughton if we get both though. Pants wetting time if we get a striker on top of that.

Can we fit a new attacking midfielder and a new striker into the team though? Think it will be one or the other to support Carroll.

Wonder if Chris Hughton will have a cheeky punt to bring his son here

 

"Cian is a player we've been linked with, but I'm not aware of him"

Reporter: "But Chris he's your son?!"

CH: "That is purely speculation"

My electric got turned off last night so I couldn't swap Diamanti for bale in my FF team. FMFL

 

The dog ate my homework etc etc etc

 

Nah not really, considering it's my own fault for forgetting to pay the bill regardless. Tantamount to feeding your homework to the dog really.

I was just kidding 

I know how it is with the fantasy stuff trust me.

Arsenal game is superb like, great flowing stuff. Started becoming very much an onslaught after the sending off though unfortunately.

 

Is Walcott upfront with Chamakh, or on the wing?

 

Wing really, although Arsenal are very fluid. He's floating everywhere, destroying them tbh.

 

Something like this:

 

Arshavin Chamakh Walcott

Wilshere Diaby Rosicky

Clichy Vermaelen Song Sagna

Almunia

One really good thing about Theo is his movement. Even when out wide he always gets into great goal scoring positions. Really does a good job of drifting into the middle at the right times.

He is absolutely destroying Crainey on the right. What he's doing is borderline criminal.

Sounds brutal. Good for Theo. I'm rooting for him, think he's still got tons of potential. Just needs to stay fit and get a good run of games together.
