The Barclays Premier League Thread 2013/14

[Gazz]

A flat 4-4-2?

[stokeriño]

Who plays wide for Newcastle in that arrangement? (presumably Gouffran and...)

[Ant]

Sissoko maybe?

You'd of thought Ben Arfa would have started if Pardew was going to play with wide midfielders.

[stokeriño]

Newcastle's defence looks shaky as all hell when we get forward (except in the air where they've done their job). If we score soon it could open up...but getting that first goal will be the trial.

[stokeriño]

Hmm, I can hear the latest distasteful song from the Chelsea fans ("Fuck off David Moyes / Wenger touches boys / We've got Mouriiiiiiiiiinho"). Not a fan of Wenger/paedo chants, in general.

At least we've still got the Willian song.

[METALMAN]

They probably got Suggs to write that one for them.

[stokeriño]

I will not hear a bad word against Suggs and/or anything Madness related. :@

Luiz is the most frustrating player i have ever seen.

[Gazz]

Luiz is the most frustrating player i have ever seen.

Gabriel Obertan

[stokeriño]

Even in terms of (semi-recent) Chelsea players, Kalou was much more frustrating than Luiz.

Newcastle settling down now. Hopefully this won't turn into another Everton...

[9 to 5]

Luiz is the most frustrating player i have ever seen.

Aston Villa.

[stokeriño]

Non-foul given against Mata. Seriously, even the replays showed he barely touched the defender.

[stokeriño]

Well at least we didn't concede a last-minute goal like at Everton.

Tough. I guess all I can hope now is that the Newcastle players who played Extra Time on Wednesday die of fatigue around the 60 minute mark. >_>

Torres is having a bit of a mare today.

[Your Mom]

What a boring game so far. I do love the announcer getting after this guy though. "If you're injured get out of there. Other wise quit being a baby and get on with it!"

[stokeriño]

Torres is having a bit of a mare today.

The main thing for Torres today is that he isn't winning anything in the air. Oscar's been pretty damn AWOL as well.

And holy hell that was a close chance for Newcastle a minute ago.

Eto'o and Willian on. Torres and Mata off. Hopefully the Anzhi boys can inject something.

[Ant]

Watching games you have a bet on should be against the law.

[Starvinho]

United team vs Fulham: De Gea; Rafael, Vidic, Evans, Evra; Valencia, Jones, Cleverley, Januzaj; Rooney, van Persie

Subs: Lindegaard, Smalling, Fellaini, Kagawa, Nani, Young, Hernandez.

Fuck sake. It is another Everton.

More to the point, FUCK YOU NOVEMBER. EVERY YEAR.

[Ant]

Offside surely?
