There's something exhilarating about a late winner - especially when you do it so often that you know it's coming.
I've seen Lamela compared to Dirk Kuyt on another site - Eriksen gets the headlines for his goals, but it's Lamela pulling the defenders out of position that creates the space for it to happen.
The key thing is that your opponent starts to think it's coming so they may make an error (leading to the inevitable)
All in all a brilliant weekend, thanks England and double thanks Tottenham hotspur FC. Poch seems to be working. Fiorentina doesn't seem so difficult now but we have to balance that with the cup final, tricky decisions ahead for Poch.
If you're looking for a laugh, head over to the Arsenal board. Though I'd advise drinking beforehand - the whine over there is very bitter.
****ing Hell, Jonathan Pearce really outdid himself this time. "He's holding his hand! For me that's a clear penalty". This was describing Townsend touching Mertesacker's hand causing the 6'7" German to collapse to the ground I thought it was a nice touch of affection from Townsend in the middle of a heated derby and with Valentines Day coming up.
"Oh what a beautiful morning,Oh what a wonderful day! I have that incredible feeling,Harry will win his first cap!"
Just listened to it....."that's a penalty to Arsenal all day long" Gooner are we, Jonathan? As only a gooner could see that as a penalty.
Yes, I remarked on that at the time. Maybe I don't understand the rules, or something. But, how is that not a penalty?
bigsmithy I'd like to hear somebody sing "Stamford Bridge is falling down, falling down, falling down. Stamford Bridge is falling down around Jose's ears.
We came back from behind against an in form Arsenal which is a good springboard for the rest of the season. I fancy our chances at Anfield now.
On BT sport they had Owen, Mcmanaman and Scholes and they all laughed at the way Mertesacker fell to the floor and said there was no way it was a penalty.
