My own, somewhat simplified way of looking at things: Short-term, you look at the players who are out of form and analyse what they're doing wrong. Mid-term, you look at the manager and his tactics and what he's doing wrong. Long-term, the buck stops with the owner.

Interesting - OK, maybe not interesting, but still - to note the relatively low ratios of broadcasting revenues across the German clubs. Compare it to the bumper packages generally enjoyed in England, Italy, Spain - even France on a relative scale; makes the resurgence of the Bundesliga in recent seasons all the more impressive IMO.

Not really that similar once you get past the title tbf. Newcastle matched their bid then they asked for more unlike San Lorenzo who seem to have offered a 50p and a curly wurly. A sizeable transfer budget for us, that. Be thankful.

Think your problem may have just gone away. 74 for me after tonight. Walcott © a very wise - if not that surprising - choice in the end. Actually, that's excluding any potential bonus points for him. Cazorla, Wilshere, Podolski and Giroud probably all deserve bonus points before him. Thus I fully expect Walcott to get those 3 bonus points.

:anguish: FFS arse

Groo, your ballboy was quite clearly trying to time-waste and was acting a dick. Hazard was absolutely in the wrong, of course he was, but don't try saying he wasn't being wound up by the tactics of your ballboy(s).

Pathetic from Hazard, tbh. He got the kick all wrong: http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m4ywyuZIDi1qgvz2q.gif

It's a very simple situation with 2 parts. 1) The ballboy was acting like a massive twat and clearly trying to wind Chelsea players up by time wasting. 2) Hazard was thick as fuck for doing what he did.

Well deserved for Swansea.

That lad's regained consciousness.

12 minutes of added time at Arsenal.

The BBC commentary has me tickled. "The Chelsea bench look bemused by that decision, but you can't go around kicking ball boys." :lol:

bahahahahahahahahahaha

Laid the smackdown on that little shit.

Dave's out of control.

Is it greedy to say I'm annoyed he's only got 1 goal and an assist from 5 goals?

3 goals in under 10 minutes for Arsenal. Interesting.

Yes, fucking loads.

Class goal, 1-1.

Wham Bam 1-0.

Thought he was very decent with Caulker last year. The games I saw anyway. Aye he was, think he's got better though, less dallying and passing for passing's sake plus he's bedded in Chico well, another great buy btw. Yup, Chico Time seems another very smart buy, give or take his enthusiasm for a good old fashioned yellow card / reckless challenge.

Fucking class football.

, book him then.
