Fulham away, Stoke away and Stevenage were all comfortably worse than this, like. Unless that's just because the gulf in class here was far lower.

He was good today.

'Fabricio Trollocini'

brilliant

He was poor today.

Was a better performance than Ranger. They were about the same. Ranger's touches were shite, Lovenkrands didn't have many.

Harper 7 - fine, a few good stops too Simpson 5.5 - kept backing off again and also was nowhere to be found during many Villa attacks Williamson 7 - not at fault S. Taylor 4 - lost Collins for the goal and was his general clumsy, superman self. also lucky not to see a pen awarded against him Enrique 5 - piss poor, kept losing the ball and generally an off touch Barton 5 - please just shut the fuck up and play the game, poor set pieces Guthrie 4 - passing rotten, invisible after the hour mark Coloccini 5 - out of position and it showed. fine at centre back after switch over Gutierrez 5.5 - final ball lacking once again Ranger 4 - absolutely terrible, has no idea how to hold the ball up Lovenkrands 4 - a few half-chances and one he should have scored. otherwise anonymous in play SUBS: R.Taylor 5 - one excellent cross and one wasted late set-piece Kuqi 6 - not enough time, a marginal improvement on our other forwards however

Either 1-1 or a Manchester United cricket score.

You what? It was another 90 minutes of practically zilch.

Quite possibly the best of a bad bunch.

Fucking terrible.

I've had a good weekend and now Neil's actually won something, wtf.

Seeing as my earlier accumulator looks like it'll be coming in, but my Blackpool/Newcastle dnb bet has failed: £2.50 on Newcastle win £1 on Draw HT, NewcastleFT £1 on Ranger anytime scorer

What an absolutely mental line up. I guess he wants to keep barton wide right, which is fair enough.

What a shame, Arsenal put it to bed.

Charlie Adam's passing isn't half as good as people say, like.

Napoli lead 2-0 at half time, gonna be livid if Ajax can't score in the next half hour. Ajax 1-0 please see it out! Edit: 2-0.

Come on Blackpool! Would love to see another Arsenal failure

I think that advantage for the goal was class refereeing, like. I'm sure Blackpool would rather have an outfield player in goal for Arsenal + a penalty + playing against 10 men, like.

Wilshere booked for being a whingey cunt

GTFI GTF

Rangers safe, Napoli leading... come on Ajax!

I wouldn't be too against Nile on the right, if it means we don't play Ryan Taylor.

That was close, Blackpool mere centimetres away there.

Please get sent off again and force another epic collapse.
