assou ekotto what a lazy fuck.

The man has been quoted as saying he doesn't even like football, that it's just a profession and a paycheck. Nuff said.

LOL. The quality of referee is really bad. How can he make a decision when there is a bunch of players blocking his view.

 

1,000 articles calling for goal-line technology in 3..2..1..

I would have no issues with goal-line tech. Simple to implement, wouldn't disrupt the flow of the game. And that was fucking terrible by Martin Atkinson.

Holy shit, that was a fucking remarkable save by Cech, Wow. I thought for sure it was a goal until I saw the replay.

top fucking save.

liverpool could have had this done and dusted if kenny hadn't started jay shithouse spearing

Liverpool have been quite positive and fun to watch in the 2nd half. I hope the equalize as I think they've deserved it.

Yep. Absolute shit.

I honestly believe that Southend United would be worse with Jay Spearing in midfield. He adds absolutely nothing, complete shite.

holly fuck this color guy (forget his name, with martin tyler) is such a fucking scouser

"COULD THIS BE THE GAME WHERE CARROLL REDEEMS HIMSELF FOR ALL THIS MONEY COULD IT MARTIN?"

"mikel on the ball"

yeah so chelsea are a better team on paper and clearly more mature, more intelligent tactics and better team play

It was a retarded thing to say, but Robson played his career for the Arse.

ahhh robson yes of course

I thought we were dreadful in the first half. Spearing isn't good enough obviously, i agree. We badly missed Lucas today who played in the 2 matches against Chelsea at stamford bridge this season (got injured during the 2nd one in the league cup).

Second half, we were pretty good i thought and Carroll is definitely looking up now. He's no £35 million player but he's coming along nicely. He's looking like the player we thought we were buying, and to be fair, he's been looking decent for a while but you need goals to back it up otherwise people aren't interested. He was the main positive out of the whole thing for me.

pretty much agree with that analysis.

welcome to stoke city mofox

Holy shit. Chelsea survive a league one team and Tottenham going down on Leeds. lol.

yep

Oldham currently leading against Liverpool.

3-1 Oldham! the magic of the f a cup! lol

Even the groundskeeper gets glory on the pitch for Oldham.

Oldham.

As much as I love to see big teams go out, as an Arsenal fan I worry that our rivals are going to have less games, more preparation time and more desire to perform better in the league than us.

Bolded my predictions:

Huddersfield/Leicester v Wigan

MK Dons v Barnsley

Oldham v Everton, lol

Luton v Millwall

Arsenal v Blackburn

Man City v Leeds, lol

Man Utd v Reading

Middlesborough v Brentford/Chelsea

I need to start betting on the english cups.

A shame for Luton not getting a PL tie away from home again. Great weekend for the Football League/non-League though.

Gervinho is so fucking useless.

Blackburn are bullying the arsenal defense.

I get what Arsene is trying to do but that defense needs a strong no bullshit defender.
