Rival Watch Thread Watch

Yep. We were in 'crisis' this week, one weekend later and we're level with Arsenal who no doubt will be flavour of the week for the swarming wasps that are the media

All good fun though

You're as close to Leicester in twelfth place as you are to Soton in third. But early to be jerking-off in celebration, perhaps?

 

True. Part time football is really paying off for you guys, a point ahead of a very poor performing Liverpool side with you having played the high powers of football such Swansea, Sunderland, Burnley, QPR, Leicester, West Ham and Everton. Bravo

 

Cheers.

 

There are no easy games in the EPL unless you play QPR of course. That's the thing with the EPL nobody expected Stoke to go to Man City and win 1-0. Villa beat you 1-0 at Anfield then lose to Arsenal 3-0 (H) and Chelsea away 3-0. West Ham won 3-1 against Liverpool and beat QPR only 2-0. Sunderland away will be a tough place to go also Leicester away.
Newcastle drew 2-2 away at Swansea the way Newcastle has been playing that was a surprise. Expect nothing in this game and you can expect 9 points from 3 easy games but it never works out that way.
Liverpool are hoping that Sturridge will kick start their season and when he played @ Tottenham that was Liverpools best performance with Balotelli and Sturridge but that was only 1 game we will see if they can hit it off but the signs are promising.
I think with Man U they might be behind on points of what was expected of them but they have had terrible injury problems, especially at the back and if they had played better teams then they might not have had 11 points and confidence would be down. (And as we know in football it is hard to get back), so maybe while they are getting settled with new signings and injuries is might have been better to play the so called inferior teams. But there is a lot to more to come from Liverpool and Man U and personally I can see Man U actually playing better against the best teams as they will be no pressure on them but it will still be tight between the both of you.
At the end of January we will see the Man U squad change a bit, maybe getting a defender or two, not sure if Liverpool will buy anyone else though?

 

I don't think we're allowed to mention the bit in bold. Playing a 19 year old and a left back in the centre of defence is no excuse, especially as we've won both games

 

oh.... so NOW rojo is a left full when it suits right?

And we were told the LB playing CM (blind) wasn't and Rojo wasn't and shaw... well nobody wanted to admit he existed.

the phfackt is you lot borught the defensive dire straights upon yourself. you let two go (one rightly past it mind, the other probably at the right time) then signed an LB in response and releid on the hapless smalling and jones... pity about you...

 

As you rightly intimated, Ferdinand has been toilet for two seasons. Vidic has been awful for Inter so far and has struggled against quick strikers since Torres started owning him (and that was a LONG time ago!).

Personally I think that Jones and Smalling can do a job for us given a run in the team as centre halves (as opposed to right backs or a holding midfielder) but if they're permanently crocked we'll never find out.

To be fair to Rojo he has surprised me in the past two games as he's done well at centre half. I don't watch Portuguese football and was led to believe by various opposition fans that he's very much a left back. Maybe he really is a centre half?! The kid McNair looks like he can play a bit which is promising.

We could do with a top class centre half though but as you lot have found out they are expensive. Even £20million only buys you a Lovren who isn't as good as an Agger!

Shaw is going to be the dog's swingers. I suspect you know that hence the hate. He's even managed to get his weight down so he's not as fat as that chubster you've got bombing forward and leaving huge gaps at left back!

If Blind is a left back then he's also a ****ing good DM. Obviously he's no Lucas but who is?

Back to football. Take a look at the table. Just take a look.
In fourth spot we have plucky Manchester United, who have moved above the mighty Swansea with a 2-1 win over Everton.
Angel Di Maria and Falcao, who earn around a Euromillions jackpot every year, both scored.
United are only eight points behind leaders Chelsea. There, we said it.

Garth Crooks on Lallana: "And about time! His first Liverpool goal and, boy, has this been a long time coming."

**** you. He's a midfielder who has made 4 league appearances after returning from a serious injury. Get a clue you useless ****.

 

Liverpool are no longer our rivals because we are now top top 4, we'll be top of the league from Christmas till may.

We're The Famous Man United And We're Going To Win The League.

GGMU.

 

Yawn. Come back when you can beat MK Dons, Burnley, Leicester, Sunderland or Swansea

 

I take it that you are new to football?

 

Those were minor blips, our Gaalacticos were just getting used to English Football.

Admit it, the premier league is running scared of the famous man united.

GGMU.

 

I think he is new to life in general, suspect still at school and got his dad to set up his account

 

Lol. Garth Crooks really is a buffoon of the highest order. He's probs one of those who thinks we're desperately missing Glen Johnson.

 

We have bigger fish than Liverpool to fry so move along little club.

GGMU.
