Krul Santon Willo Colo MYM Cabaye Anita Sissoko Ben Arfa Remy Gouffran

Another late 1-0 scrape. Shola starts, Ben Arfa comes on. MYM at left back. Pardew loses his keys again.

One of the lads on my podcast's pilot went on a rant about this Saying it doesn't count as a derby when you're all holding hands and making joint scarves.

GW12: Everton 1-3 Liverpool Arsenal 3-1 Southampton Fulham 0-1 Swansea Hull 2-0 Crystal Palace Newcastle 2-0 Norwich Stoke 1-1 Sunderland West Ham 1-2 Chelsea Man City 2-0 Tottenham Cardiff 0-1 Man Utd West Brom 1-1 Aston Villa

That'll teach him.

We'll just keep him again. Make someone else captain but keep him here to ease the transition to Yanga-Mbiwa.

It was a nice break Suarez for Sturridge, Ravel for Lampard.....bring it on! I'm long overdue a good week.

Aubameyang Hamsik Mkhitaryan Bale Zlatan Lewandowski ....for me. Although it's ridiculously attacking

The real hipsters go with Chile, although Friday might've made them too mainstream.

That reminds me, I need to buy some Xmas wrapping paper.....

When the egos choose to play well, they're actually quite good. Entertaining night of matches - apart from at Wembley, obviously.

Things going well

Zlatan vs Ronaldo certainly met the hype.

Especially when Cabaye went from going on strike to playing out of his skin for us. All it took was Deschamps' words.

WOOOOP WOOOOP

France are going to do this, surely. Should've got 2 or 3 by now.

FRAAAAAAANCE

The French are the first to every ball here. Let's hope they can keep this up!

COME ON FRANCE!!!! :clap:

He's actually going to the World Cup, isn't he? ;D

Isn't Long out of contract summer 2014? Thought I read WBA had the option for a fourth. Regardless, I'm surprised he only got a 3 year contract.

I like Long, though I think January will only be about knockdown bids for near-Bosman players (Gomis, Ince etc). January is the new summer!!!

Just noticed one of the whiteboards at Uni has FTM in the corner in permanent marker. Lovely people.

Yeah, with the WC six months away there could be some cracking loans available.
