Yup. Pretty amazing we got 9 points from sudnerland away, spuds home and racist fc away. Most neutrals before those games would of thought we would of been lucky to get 3 points total.
I'll be so gutted if Spurs don't get top 4. If Chelsea go on a run and Arsenal continue theirs it's probably the most likely outcome though : / We keep picking up injuries now whereas Chelsea and Arsenal are getting people back
To be fair I dont like the spuds but like us you have had your fair share on injuries this year. Liverpool, on the other hand, have had hardly any injuries and yet still cant do anything
Yup. Just in time we got rosicky back firing and got ramsey out. That, imo, has made all the difference the last month or so.
Well liverpool are out of the race now. So today hasnt been so bad. Fingers crossed everton can get something vs the spuds and then it will be a good day.
I wouldn't say the 3 points against us was stolen as much as Liverpool's. We left the door open, with the 3 points on the table and went out for the afternoon. Arsenal played well that afternoon but we didn't help ourselves by letting you dictate like you did.
The Liverpool win was a steal. But Sunderland deserved **** all for their tactics at home. And we destroyed Spurs. Most Spurs I know could not fathom how the went two goals ahead.
I didn't know if he meant stolen in terms of prior expectation or the fact we were 2-0 up but there you go. I was very critical of our performance and attitude following the match so I can freely accept we were destroyed. The Man Utd match was far better, despite the overall result being the same.
Why did we steal the points at Sunderland? They did nothing to deserve any points. They parked their team bus in front of their goal and hoped to get something on the break in their own stadium. Their goal was a freak after Mert's injury. We remained patient and did not panic.
So Chelsea have got the expected win, which means we need to win the game on Monday to keep the 3 point gap, as for Liverpool, things are not looking good for them, and I think we can most likely rule them out from a top 4 spot, which is good news for us, and hopefully if we beat Newcastle that will be another rival out of top 4 contention, now it's Everton who need to do us a favour.
To be honest the liverpool result didnt matter. They are so poor that they arent a "rival". However with chavski winning we could do with everton doing a job on the spuds. Spuds are in crisis at the moment and are a confidence team. So it looks possible. Huge game for us monday...although to be honest they are all huge for the rest of the year now. It will be tight for 3/4/5.
Are Liverpool about to go on a Birmingham-esque slide down the table? Anything is possible. Look what happened to Birmingham last year after winning the Carling Cup.
Honestly, I'm happy to be wrong about Liverpool. I initially thought they'd find some form with the return of Gerrard. Their fixture list looked good and 4th was there for them if they wanted it but now they should be more worried about losing 7th!
Yes Everton look a class act. Very good quality football match. Bale is so cocky now. Its hilarious! He is so awful now because he has started believing all his hype
Definatly. One can only wonder what Fergie would do to him in this situation. A quick hairdryer and on the bench for a few weeks imo. Done it with rooney several times to take him down a peg or two.
