The Prophet

Oh my God he scored a goal lets have a wank over Man United academy, wait why stop there he's going to be the best player ever. Sky are such a bunch of tossers man, some of the most biased commentry I've every heard.

Martin Tyler is such a cunt, he couldn't want them to win any more. Five minutes fuck off Riley go crash your car son.

Five minutes, fuck off Riley you brown-nosing cunt. Howay Villa.

Nice finish, Villa have such a lack of experience in terms of shutting up shop.

PSG Breman Sampdoria Athletico 6/1, maybe a bit more. Edit: Luckily this abomination of a bet was restored by putting a cheeky quid on Cheivo to nick a draw at Juve.

SheffieldUunited, Reading, Bradford and Macclesfield enjoy pissing on my parade.

So we weren't expecting anything form the game, that excuses the defending, aye rightio.

Fucking shocking defending, should be ashamed of themselves.

Leeds Peterborough Brentford Cheterfield Around 31/1 at Hills.

Hey I'll have you know no one picks out the side netting like Nixon does.

I've heard Nixon can cover right back Pilko. But seriously Gimp played well when he had to cover.

The prospect of playing in an organised defence sounds good. Nixon are you not playing up front again, you ripped the blues apart at times.

Why do I get stuck on the reds again? Blue through and through.

Bar our top four La Liga is much, much stronger than the Premiership.

Will probably be a typical Chelsea performance. We'll battle hard, push them all the way but they'll some how scrap to a narrow margained victory.

Inter Lyon Twente Liverpool About 4/1

Once again I found myself amused at Sky's love of the top four and their players. Goals on Sunday didn't even mention Ronaldo's tackle or general petulance let alone show it amounst the highlights.

Not saying he has done brilliantly since coming back from injury, because he hasn't, but with Lovenkrands and him in attack we have seen attacking moves you simply wouldn't see with Owen in the team due to his lack of movement (unless played in midfield, something Hughton and Kinnear wouldn't even consider). Martins has also scored a goal yesterday from nothing, although he missed one or two he should have scored. He is capable of playing better than he currently is, but I personally don't think Owen would have done better, certainly not in terms of contributing to our general decent attacking play.. Owen looked really off the pace when he came on. It was like watching someone in slow motion. At least Loven and Martins looked like they could compete equally as athletes against Arsenal's players. Wenger actually said they were very lively throughout. Loven should not get a new deal but the fucker worked his balls off yesterday. I think the lad should get a new deal. Put at this way, when everyone is fully fit who would you rather came of the bench, Shola or Lovenkrands?

6-7 for me, getting nervy but our fate is still very much in our own hands.

I was thinking that until Michael Owen came on and moved across the pitch like he was wearing boots made of cement. FYI Martins DID score by the way. I know a five is harsh, I thought Martins and Lovenkrands were our most threatening players by a distance. His performance was roughly a seven for me but the fact he missed the penalty was massive. If he puts that away we're looking at a different game. You could tell the moment he stepped up he didn't fancy it and that alone for me some what negates any threat he posed throughtout the game. He put in a good shift but its just as important to take your chances when they come. It's hard to describe especially as I'm a bit worse for wear but from the stands that penalty miss felt huge.

Penalty miss aside? What the fuck. Martins is a striker its his job to score goals. I don't care how well he played the fact he missed a penalty, such an important penalty at that is massive. He can play as well as he wants but you can't miss such simple chances, that goal would of changed the game.

Harper 5 - Should have done better for the third, didn't get down quick enough. S. Taylor 7 - One of his better games. Bassong 7 - Did well until the injury. Coloccini 4 - Looked comfortable in the first half, shit his bricks when the going got tough. Enrique 6 - Did well in parts, didn't really put a foot wrong. R. Taylor 5- Whiped some good balls into the box, shite from open play though. Butt 5 - Battled well in the first half, largely a passanger for the second. Nolan 5 - See Butt. Duff 6 - Did well in the first half, faded badly in the second. Martins 5 - I want to give the lad a seven I really do but he had to bury that penalty, huge moment in the match and he bottled it. Lovenkrands 7 - Like Martins his pace caused problems, the pair of them looked a threat all game.

Such a frustrating game but sums us up perfectly, no fucking backbone. Up until they went ahead we were the better side, we were getting in amongst them creating chances, as soon as we went behind we gave up as usual. How different it could have been if Martins had stuck that penalty away. Some other points: Harper: His reflexes aren't good enough, he's so slow to react. The third goal was his fault in my book. Coloccini: Where did it all go wrong? He's so slow to react to any kind of situation, he had a decent first half but as soon as we were under the cosh he looked like a nervous wreck, where was he for the second? R. Taylor: Doesn't do enough in open play for me. Duff: Decent first half but faded second, where the fuck was Jonas? Martins: Such a double edged sword. We need him badly but he's just so damn erratic. It's just pissy arse annoying to see players with his ability miss the most simple of chances. He looked like he bottled the penalty, it looked evident from his body language that he didn't fancy it.

Let the magic roll...

Aye I'm sure he was calling Coloccini 'Cudicini' a couple of weeks ago.
