  1. Ended the week on 65 pts, and up to the dizzying heights of joint 83rd. At least i'm in the football league!
  2. Bit of both imo. You're right, we hardly touched the ball at the Etihad, but we have considerably reduced our over reliance on the hoof.
  3. They don't have a final ball, for the past year their final ball has been Bale shooting. That's true but I think that's because they haven't had a proper in-form striker (or set of strikers) to build their attacking play around. Now with Soldado on board, they will need to play differently if they're going to get anything out of him .
  4. I think this is where Ericksen comes in. Well where was he today? Chadli, Paulinho, Dembele have done absolutely nothing going forward.
  5. Yup. Never rated him as anything more than average but he's been very impressive today.
  6. 59 points with Vertonghen and Soldado to play.
  7. Parky's walked. Surprised skirge hasn't posted a tweet on it yet.
  8. Van Persie should have been off the odious prick
  9. I still think the plan all along was to go for the win in the second half if we didn't manage to fluke into a lead with Shola on.
  10. Dat sudden change of direction and burst of pace
  11. Atmosphere looks pretty good at Selhurst.
  12. 40 points with Vertonghen, Coutinho, Welbeck, Sturridge and Soldado still to play. Captain Ben Arfa Will probably end up with 10 (x2) pts with the bonus.
  13. Best game in a black and white shirt by miles. Excellent in the air, solid on the ground and made excellent runs. This is the Debuchy we all wanted to see.
  14. Bringing Cabaye on and taking Marveaux out freed him up in the second half. Marveaux was playing too central and they were stepping on each other's toes. Gouffran stayed out wide and gave Sissoko the space to run into.
  15. Saying he wouldn't have slept tonight if the team hadn't scored. What a wonderful chap.
