Rival Watch™ 2012/2013

And the little .... scores again this is turning into a rout for Villa again

 

Good hat-trick, I still think he's exactly the sort of player we need.

 

Yeah we should of signed him when he was out of form.

 

Althought easily said in hindseight.

 

Stoke won to move ahead of us whilst we were playing

 

Sunderland 0 - 0 Tottenham, with about 30 mins gone. Looking pretty even thus far

 

As I say that Spurs are stepping it up, Adebayor just hit the bar, should of scored.

 

I don't get why the spuds don't play Vertonghen at CB every game. He is their best CB IMO and he is also a threat at set-pieces too.

 

John O'Shea makes it 1-0 to Sunderland

 

Went to make toast and missed it!

 

Only listening to Five Live, sounded like a bit of a scramble

 

If O'Shea scored it probably was haven't seen a replay yet

 

Someone took a shot (Fletcher I think?), Lloris parried only for O'Shea to score.

 

Defoe diving now - learning from Bale

2-1, Lennon

 

2-1 (Lennon)



Awful defending for both goals

 

Watched Spurs a fair few times this season, it's the strongest I've seen them and I reckon they'll finish third. As much as I hate to admit it, they're starting to look like a really good team, and they're starting to challenge consistently.

 

As much as I think Vertonghen is their best CB, they've looked a different outfit since recalling Dawson.
