Moneyball won't win the Premiership 2012-13

Yup. Worst season ever.

Yes! Diame's injured. Hope it's not too serious obviously.

Fabulous goal

shite celebration

Are we Utd in disguise?

Shelvey doesn't give a fuck about West Ham

It was even an og too

GOAL- Everton 1-1 Spurs - Steven Pienaar (90 mins)
Steven Pienaar rescues a point for Everton against his old club with a great header. Pienaar is not even in the box when Seamus Coleman stands up a cross from wide on the right but Pienaar times his run to perfection to meet the ball powerfully and head past Hugo Lloris. Great arrive.

urgh "great arrive" must never happen again

Nah, 'assist' looked like that once. Jeez, maybe even 'run' and 'kick' too.

"well kicked"

that's Scotland v England 1872 btw

'header' not yet part of the lexicon

Great win there btw, was expecting the full black dog this afternoon

liverpool storming towards the cl places, the likes of west brom will be looking over their shoulder now.

That could be a pretty significant result though - other than the bizarro Kenny run, when was the last time you'd've fancied Liverpool to win that match from there?

i was certain they'd lose even before kick-off. "steadily improving" is used a lot but i do believe they are. character is growing.

2008-09, when they seemed to win most of their matches like that. Corner turned though, I think.

xp

that opening spell of 08/09 was exhilarating.

It was the era of "never in doubt", wasn't it? Never got the chance to deploy its harsh goal-line decision variant "Never in, Kuyt". Every week, I waited...

the wigan and man city games stand out, from that era. amir zaki overhead!

Never in, Kuyt.

Ha ha. I DID do it. And it was that bloody Pompey game (first time I'd even streamed anything) which WAS a "never in doubt" match.
xp

They were back-to-backs as well. A feast for the eyes.

lols xps. <3 kuyt so much

Also the season of the consecutive 4-4s vs Chelsea & Arsenal.

cunts

"we get bogged down sometimes talking about tactics and formations"

no you don't

lol otm

gallas and walker should get lifetime bans for that jela goal

he was fairly chuffed

dangerous play imo?

Walker and gallas are a disaster together, but the former's much better with the cunt gone

"It hasn't helped having so many new players, even though I am one of them," said Green whose heroics earned Rangers their third straight draw under Redknapp. "I don't want to sound like a member of Ukip but with so many different nations, cultures and languages, it takes time to gel."

“You can look at it two ways. You can think ‘Oh my God, how the hell are we going to get out of this?’ or you go ‘let’s prove people wrong’. If we do manage to do it, what a record and achievement it would be when you’re sitting in your armchair in 15 or 20 years’ time. So we’ve got to be up for it. If you’re not up for it, don’t come here.”

uncle clint, tell us the one about not winning a game til neveruary again, oh go on uncle clint

gambling genius lil mickey thinks we'll stay up

gallas and walker should get lifetime bans for that jela goal

if there happens to be a photo of them standing with an arm up each appealing an imaginary offside in lieu of doing their fucking jobs, I'm printing that fucker out and going to the rifle range

lmao at Villa-Stoke highlights showing p much literally no actual football, just fouls

yeah, i chuckled

I'm not sure what's more surprising - Saints being 15th, or the fact there's now three teams in the league with worse goal difference than us.

Also, watching MOTD back, I'm fairly sure Alan Shearer thinks Jay Rodriguez and Gaston Ramirez are the same person.

I thought they threw money at players all the time at City.

Bradford's team on Tuesday cost £7,500 to assemble, as opposed to Arsenal's £65m – Wenger started with eight of his first-choice players – and Jones was asked whether Arsenal should be embarrassed.

"Without a shadow of a doubt," he replied. "No disrespect to us and our lads but they should be beating Bradford City. But team spirit means a lot and it can take a team a long way. We have a massive team spirit and we showed it.
