    he wouldn get in the team xavi!!

    Ah every team needs a 'Bergkamp'!
    lads seriously, this is a premiership weekend thread, is surprised one or 2 people aint been banned for talking total sh**e on ere.....big week for liverpool, if they go out of europe during the week and united get a result next week, i think its bye bye rafa.....

    The mindset of some fans is crazy (I'm not meaning you btw). Lost one league game so far this season and it's time for the chop? That's ridiculous. The fans called for Torres to start against Reading, he did and they got hammered. What do you (collectively) want?

    Liverpool aren't a great team in the same context as United, Arsenal or Chelsea and anyone who thinks they are is kidding themselves. Yet despite this they reached a Champions League final in May. That's not even 7 months ago. Short memories.

    Every week is a big week at a 'top' club. This week it's an argument with the owners, next week it'll be a row with a player, then the fans.....and every game for a Liverpool fan is a 'must win' game.

    Boro 1-0 up on arsenal
    Downing a penalty after 4 mins.
    Now that would be the upset of the year so far !

    Toure gives away penalty and Downing puts it away.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,617 ✭✭✭✭PHB


    This would be such a fantastic weekend if this happened. I remain sceptical :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,698 ✭✭✭IrishMike


    Arsenal not having it their own way at all.
    Half an hour gone and boro are more than holding their own!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,097 ✭✭✭✭Tusky


    Middlesborough looking very good at the moment. Arsenal lacking creativity.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 409 ✭✭Brendygg


    Boro playin very well, plenty of pressure, Arsenal looking out of sorts in midfield.

    As the commentator just said " Boro's best 45mins of the season ,Arsenal's worst. "


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,149 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Lineups for the City v Spurs game.

    Isaksson
    Corluka Dunne Richards Garrido
    Etuhu Johnson Fernandes Petrov
    Ireland
    Vassell


    Robsinon
    Chimbonda Dawson Kaboul Lee
    Lennon Jenas Zokora Malbranque
    Berbatov Bent

    I'm not one bit confident reading it. Our midfield is p*ss weak


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,617 ✭✭✭✭PHB


    I'm interested in seeing Spurs without Keane. This game is gona be a cracker I think.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 409 ✭✭Brendygg


    Tuncay had a great chance, should be 2-0


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,617 ✭✭✭✭PHB


    Boro are playing like United here, this is nuts.

    They should be 3-0 up! Fingers crossed those misses don't come back to haunt.

    No Elano, no Geovanni, no creativity. Oh and Vassel up front.

    I fully expect Arsenal to win 2/3-1.:(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,617 ✭✭✭✭PHB


    Normally I'd say that too Stekelly, but Arsenal are really playing absolutely terribly. I've no idea why, but they look a totally different team. I'm actually beginning to hope :) [Which of course means Arsenal are gona score now :P]

    yessssssssss 2-0


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,617 ✭✭✭✭PHB


    Go the **** on Boro, the only time in my life I'll ever cheer for Southgate, but ****ing come on!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,097 ✭✭✭✭Tusky


    2-0!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Mid have been absolutely fantastic.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 38,227 ✭✭✭✭Guy:Incognito


    Yay my trick worked. Knew they'd hear me and it'd spur them on.:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,228 ✭✭✭Chardee MacDennis


    great stuff from boro, keep it up - was hoping they'd go down but this could redeem them for me!!

    city game looks like it could be interesting from the line ups. any news on the hammers game?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,617 ✭✭✭✭PHB


    This is fantastic. If results go our way next weekend, we will be able to go top of the league. 1 point gap is just fantastic.
    Without Hleb, Fabregas and Van Persie, I really can't see Arsenal getting anything off Cheslea either.

    I must say, Wheater looks a decent prospect.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,713 ✭✭✭keano_afc


    I suppose Utd are on before Arsenal next week as well, as usual.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,149 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    City are playing woeful. Spurs should be two up. No one in the City midfield can hold the ball and Vas is completely isolated up top. Garrido just got booked so Lennon to have a field day.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,149 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    If we do win it'll be because of how sh1te that Kaboul is. The new Bramble

    Arsenal just scored at complete and utter ease. The one time they actually play football. Silly stuff from Boro.
