Moneyball won't win the Premiership 2012-13

another child coming on

I like the look of Assaidi

trying to follow this on min by min cos i'm locked in to the ryder cup, it is a fucking joke, it'd be quicker to travel to norwich and ask someone at the match what happened. get the finger out "phil dawkes", put on another kasabian cd or something.

they haven't even got a description of the third goal yet. "phil dawkes" too busy combing his sideburns, no doubt.

By November our EL team will have an average age 6 years older than the first team.

Oh reina

Norwich do score, I'm pissed off about that but it's been coming

reina AGAIN? ffs

It was a stinger but it did seem to just bounce off him

How's that not a booking? Ref FFS

Get in!

The way Sterling received that ball was lovely. 5-1. Bosh! Old man Gerrard gets one.

I feel like it'd be good for the young lads to notch a goal or two now

I am the only person in my Fantasy League with Suarez in my team :D

Crap from Skrtel.

Ech, that's rubbish. Had a good chance to boost the goal difference today, that's just cancelling out the WBA game now.

The tannoy announces Russel Martin as MOTM.

By God i enjoyed that game (going frwd)

yeah that was great fun. need to tighten up at the back though. reina's a worry, not sure what we do there because i don't know how good brad jones actually is. but great in terms of going forward, possession and controlling the game.

re. suso. don't know for certain about the contract situation, but i'm guessing they just wanted to make him earn it. there's been a lot of hype about him for a while now. i can see why they wouldn't want to give him a mega contract (relative to his age) before he's even played for the first team. but he seems to be on the way to 'making it' now, and the local press have reported that talks are under way.

Lol Vertonghen

Oof

vertonghen seems to be playing three positions simultaneously.

Yeah he's fantastic again

Bale 0-2!

Spurs are completely bossing ManU around, Dembele and Vertonghen are ace

This is what I thought should happen, never thought it would though

Oh no no no, what am I saying, it's not the second half yet

idk if i shd watch this

i am determined to do as little as possible today but i want to watch seville/barcelona later and 2.5 games in one day might be too much for my aetiolated concentration span

How much stoppage time does ManU need to put three past Friedel? Seven minutes should be enough iirc

We all know what happens now.

I texted a Spurs supporting mate of mine before kick-off to predict 4-0 to Spurs at half-time, United to win 5-4 in 99th minute with controversial Nani goal. United quite poor so far* but I wouldn't rule out anything yet.

*as they were last week, but then we were fortunate to be playing against ten men threatened with relegation

England manager Roy Hodgson has been 'knighted' in Finland for helping the nation put their name on the football map. Finland, a republic, have honoured Hodgson with the Knight, First Class, of the Order of the Lion of Finland.

Hodgson, appointed England coach in May, managed the Nordic nation from January 2006 to November 2007 when they came agonisingly close to qualification for a first major tournament at Euro 2008.

"Roy's time as the manager of Finland lifted the level of Finnish football culture and made Finland internationally better known as a football nation," Finnish ambassador to Britain Pekka Huhtaniemi said on the English FA's website.

aw no

huh?!

this never happens

I thought Bale had really fucked up by shooting there

wtffff

Fuck's sake

this always happens

Get a grip Tottenham ffs

Crikey, that was a penalty when you see the replay

Astonished that didn't go in

What do Spurs think they're doing here? This is asking for it.

there's nothing like coming in from the pub as the second half starts, seeing Spurs are up 2-0 and still knowing they're going to lose

There's this one bank of eight that's not picking anybody up

bloody hell, it happened

there's nothing like coming in from the pub as the second half starts, seeing Spurs are up 2-0 and still knowing they're going to lose

this guy knows what's poppin'

Do the other 15 minutes of stoppage time start after the commercials?

"the last time Spurs won at Old Trafford Phil Collins was still cool" - dude on Talksport, just now

CAN'T SPEAK RIGHT NOW.

don't remember that 1989 match but I used to have a video from the same season where they beat them in the League Cup. quality Lineker goal iirc
