That second pic, man.

Aye.

Christ, that SSN interview with Redknapp in his 4x4. He sounds like a 7-year-old, the lying bastard.

Aye, they came from 2-0 down to win at City did they not?

A City win gets me £124. A draw gets me £70.

Remember that pre-season friendly with them in '04. They basically spent the 90 minutes singing abusive (and mildly humourous) songs about Shearer and Bobby.

Many were saying the same about Bobby M when he was managing WBA 2 years back.

not just him. it was a recurring theme. just confirmed my opinion that the football media is in a comfort zone that misses loads (world soccer excluded) His words were the strongest, and most ludicrous given he's one of the more respected hacks.

Aye, post a Martin Samuel article. Nine months ago he tipped us to go down because we'd replaced our 'best player' (Nolan) with Yohan Cabaye.

Yeah, fair point. Apparently Ryan Taylor was better than them too.

The safe bet would be Ben Arfa's rating.

Thank Christ for Jason Dufner. Terrible weekend turned into a great one.

Can't disagree too much with that. To be honest I wouldn't be against Best starting against Chelsea/City.

Yep. That's the thing. With the mutant in charge I'd find us losing hilarious.

Ernie Els. How much are you in the red this weekend? £250.

To be fair it was mostly down to the players putting in horrible shifts rather than him not doing well due to the pressure. His players bottled it far more than he did. England career over for gerrard and Johnson. sounds good Sounds great.

Rather Spurs than Chelsea. At least Spurs have a bit of soul about them.

Shocking weekend so far. I'll make a nice profit of £400 if Jason Dufner wins tonight, if not, it's bad.

What a great weekend that was.

So do I, somehow.

Great.

lack of footballing talent maybe, but i wouldn't say he has no heart. he looks to me like he gives 100 percent all the time, but when you're a limited footballer that may not be enough sometimes. This might be the only time I've seen someone say Simpson gives 100%. The amount of hiding he does from the ball should, on it's own, knock that down to about 25%. ive rarely seen simpson hide from defensive responsibilities, in the oppositions half, yes he does hide as he often rather loft a ball or whack it away rather than compose himself and pass to a team mate. Given the fundamental difficulty involved in hiding from both attacking and defensive responsibilites, you're basically giving a well-paid footballer credit for not simply walking off the field of play.

He hasn't.

Who cares what one person says, man? The lad's probably not very bright, emotional with today's result, or both. Ba's performance levels have deteriorated pretty drastically, you have to concede that. In 2 of the last 3 games he's basically looked like Shola wih bricks for boots.
