Penalties not allowed at the DW apparently.

Ben Foster makes some brilliant saves, but you just know a mistake is around the corner.

But do bigger teams have more structure or more greatly defined roles? Surely greater ability leads to more movement hence more liberation? I think he'd continue to display good ability at a bigger club. Although I tend to agree he does overdo it at times.

Arsenal lent Blackburn some of their mental toughness.

Can see him struggling in a 442 personally. Thought that's what Blackpool usually play?

Allardyce would be climaxing at that goal.

Can't see any reason why not, providing he's played regularly.

That is a sublime free kick from Adam.

Forgot RSC was back at Ewood.

MOTD2 special guest Clarence Seedorf? Isn't he on every other fucking week?

Came from Celta but was on loan to a few places IIRC (Recreativo I remember). Whatever way you look at it, he's not good enough. Nor are the centre backs. I don't know how many times I or any single person with an ounce of footballing sense will notice it before Wenger does something about it. Oh well, it's funny to see them inevitably fail.

I know he's bad but he keeps on producing new and inventive ways of embarrassing himself. Credit where credit's due.

It's alright though, Koscielny's a solid defender.

Almunia. :mackems:

West Brom taking 4 points off Arsenal btw. Very close to 6 anarl.

No, Alan, it was a red card.

You got your wish.

Gonna rape the floorball scene.

Which makes it all the more remarkable/highly irritating that you're winning on it.

Never said you had a worse conversion rate than Real. It's just for the number of situations you get into, with the players you have, I'm surprised you don't score more. No deeper meaning than that.

2-0.

Undefeated in the last 20 meetings IIRC. Atlético are massive derby bottlers. What did you make of earlier? Very last 30 minutes IMO. Yes, it was still pretty decent since it's Barca but some of your finishing was atrocious. Win's a win, I guess. Not bothered, their late goal made it look worse than it was. Xavi missing the Villarreal game was the worst news. Also want to remind everybody saying we should score more that we are the top scoring team across all top leagues by some distance. I know you are. But your finishing isn't particularly outstanding, hence why I think you should be scoring more.

Brilliant defending by Pepe.
