Other games this weekend

after wednesday night, didnt think there'd be a worse set of results, but now I've been proved wrong. bloody typical. what a horrible horrible week.

 

the only consolation is that if all these teams are winning, someone else has to be losing....our relegation rivals from 2 weeks ago are being replaced. but unfortunately, we're winning games to merely keep up with the rest, theres no opportunity to pull away. and monday night is about the 4th "must win game" in a row. the fulham and wigan games are massive games for this club.

Watching Barca tonight proves what I feel when it comes to people questioning, "But will he be able to do that on a cold night in Bolton" when it comes to top foreign players. The likes of Xavi tonight have been brilliant even in those conditions.

 

The likes of Reyes did go missing in the winter months I used to call him Solar panel as he was only any good when the sun was shining.

That always annoys me things like that. Completely agree with you there.

Yeah but do you really think the players of Malaga are half as physical as Cahill and Shittu?

Have to say, I really don't see where Robbie Keane fits in to that Liverpool side, or style of play.

 

I knew full well he'd be a flop tbh. Rafa bought him to play off torres, which is quite possibly the worst thing for Keane. Keane CANNOT play that role (despite what the media say)

 

Hopefully hes like Bellamy and they want rid in the summer, id love him here

Another big Aussie, John Aloisi played over in La Liga for a while and I'm sure they coped.

I was referring to Gary not Tim mate.,

 

Ah fair enough, even then though, what about that thug of a centre-half Levante had last season. :lol:

 

And even most of the top sides have players who'd get their foot in against the best we've got (Yaya Toure at Barcelona, Diarra at Real Madrid, Duscher at Sevilla).

Duscher get his foot in! Hes the biggest nancy boy there is! Sorry mate those are like 3 players overall that league is about as physical as a wrestling match with a toddler.

Am very wary of MOTD highlights but certainly amazed that Liverpool lost that. Just shows you that when your confidence is up, things can go for you

Least deserved win of the season. Liverpool battered them for 70 minutes

 

They got the least deserved draw of the season 4 days ago!

 

Unbelievble how lucky that Harry is..

I do like Sorensen but to go down like a sack of shite when your teammates have kicked seven shades of shite out of hte opposition.

Stoke are a horrible football team. I hope they go down.

 

Aye. Some nasty tackles going in there. That one on Adebayor wasnt good. The ball was out of play for f***s sake

 

Have to say i quite enjoyed watching them play today, those Delap throws are fantastic espically with him on my fantsy teams :lol:

 

The fact is clubs like Stoke simply can't play the type of football teams  like Arsenal play with the abillty they have, they just go and play their own style of football and it works, i wouldn't be complaining if we played anti-football and managed to defeat Arsenal, i kinda admire what Pulis has been doing, just look at the names today, Salif Diao, Rory Delap,  Amdy Faye and pretty much all of their squad is made of  players who should be playing lower leagues football yet they still defeated Arsenal!

I know what your saying. Its just a fine line between playing a long ball, pressing style of play and just going all out to just kick the shit out of the opposition. I remember Mark Hughes early Blackburn side seemed a bit like that
