You can hear a pin drop at Anfield. Looking like a shock defeat!

As long as he has a propensity to assist the opposition in scoring, he surely couldn't be regarded as anything more than that.

An international player? Not a chance.

So preventing a goal doesn't count? Lol. I can't be bothered continuing this conversation, too busy celebrating Liverpool loss!

Lovely finish by Arda Turan

Atletico Madrid 2-1 up

Heck of a game against City this morning. Had to be up at 4:45 AM to catch it and I feel like death right now, but it was worth it.

Such a shame we conceded that late goal, but there are some promising signs with Wilshere showing some form as of late - he was immense today. Two beautiful goals by him and Sanchez as well. Hopefully onwards and upwards from here as we've had a really underwhelming season so far.

Sanchez could be some player for Arsenal couldn't he? Looking good so far.

I'm honestly drunk right now, from the first half I was so sure we would lose but then Cambiasso came on and our squad illuminated. Happy day!

I really don't know what happened to this thread that i started.
I started this thread so we can discuss our clubs and everything in football and have a laugh but people are attacking each other, i know we all have different opinions on football some we agree and disagree with on here but lets keep it about football and if you don't agree with that person's post did just say fair enough and move on to something else.

Hi Tob - out of respect, I've gone ahead and removed my posts. Cheers.

Getting back on the topic, what does everyone think of Man UTD? I'm sure by Christmas they'd have hit their stride and start stream rolling other teams but they are trailing by ten points already, so is it already looking like it's too late this early on? Are they looking for another seventh place finish?

Still early for united and with the new signings Van Gaal has brought in it will take time to turn things around there but i don't think they will get into the top four at the end of the season.

Makes me giddy watching him in an Arsenal shirt, so much talent and such a hard worker. Now if only Ozil would snap out of it!

Yeah, he was sharp. Arsenal look good for champions league spot at the moment. Chelsea look awesome going forward, think they will win league.
Who would you like to sign in January Tob realistically?

I agree but Ozil i don't know what is wrong with him he looks like another Arshavin.

The formation invites pressure. We are so lame up front. Wickham not good enough to lead the line in games like this. Kabul had him in his pocket Tob. We have plenty of reasons to be hopeful with the likes of Alvarez, Buckley and hopefully Rodwell. The thing is, eventually fletcher or Wickham needs to step up.
