Well, that's put the cat amongst the pigeons! Be interesting to see if City can take advantage by tonking the Goons..
Nick: If Arsenal sneak a win today, they go three points behind the leaders with six games to play and an easier run-in. From crisis to champions? (A deluded Gooner, commenting on the BBC Football Live web page, just a moment ago)
Tony Pullis has done an outstanding job and to think when he was at stoke he was universally disliked for the football they played, but now hes showed himself to be a manager who can go to a club in turmoil, mix it up, keep clean sheets and they play decent football, no long ball game and he outwitted Mourinho!
And Bent! Now you are winding me up. Pullis at Spurs!, so seasons of anti football at Stoke are all forgotten because he wins a game against Chelsea. Warped is not the word from posters who are against Sherwood who tries to play football in the right way. AVB had one or two good halves where he went 442 and allowed the team to play some football it does not mean we should want to put up with the rest of his boring agenda.
Fulham have been excellent so far. So frustrating listening to the commentary, it took them about up until about 35 minutes in for them to pay Fulham a compliment other than "they're getting into it a bit now". They've had 4/5 top chances so far but as much as Dembele is doing well for a youngster, he missed to easy chances. Richardson and Hangeland have been outstanding so far and Holtby's played well too, creating a couple of great chances and almost scoring himself.
Holtby's absolutely worked his arse off, which makes Sherwood's claims about AMITA rather confusing. If he sticks to it, then why's the German out on loan?
AMITA? Yeah, he's playing the number 10 role well, filling in when Sidwell goes on a run and dropping out wide to give an easy pass on the counter. Definitely could've used him today, I reckon.
Just spotted this on the Beeb: Gav in Cardiff: The Premier League wouldn't be the same without Fulham, too good a club to go down, the fans are some of the best in the country, always a packed stadium with a terrific atmosphere. Don't get me wrong, I was them to stay up but to say they have a terrific atmosphere is just reeling off clichés for the sake of it
AIMITA, sorry. Attitude Is More Important Than Ability, something that Sherwood's been pushing, apparently.
