Moneyball won't win the Premiership 2012-13

That good, really? How was Coutinho?

That was a comprehensive a battering as I've seen all season.

Meanwhile I'm befuddled by the paradox that this was our chance to finally beat a team above us, yet now we still haven't done so.

Please tell me Suarez scored

Why

he let Sturridge take a penalty, hth

looking forward to rodgers' sententious dreck after they beat swansea's reserve side 5-0

Tbrr it was p much what he'd have said after a 5-0 loss

Woah, where has that come from? It's pocket Cambiassian.

Swansea defence atrocious in their positioning all day today.

Like I know Swansea have a real chance of more silverware than Liverpool will see this season, and I can understand not risking Michu, but Laudrup resting pretty much your entire first XI in preparation for a League Cup final in SEVEN DAYS is some pussy shit.

rmde why the fuck would he risk a single player for one of the most important games in their history

manchester united did exactly the same vs hull a few years ago prior to the cl final but they still won

swansea first xi wouldn't exactly be fully committed today anyway

I was in Japan at the time and that game was live on telly, with not a single mention of the epochal Villa-Newcastle game unfolding elsewhere (Hull's fate even depended on it!). I guess it was clear even then that foreign epl love does not run deep.

They probably wouldn't be fully committed but they easily have it in them to take points off Liverpool and still beat Bradford a week later. Come on.

Even leaving aside the issue of them Swansea possibly finishing above Liverpool, at some point professional pride has to kick in.

It's possible Laudrup just gambled on Liverpool being both shit and knackered I suppose.

dunno, i'd be in full agreement with it if i were a swans fan

Why

Fantasy football points

yeah, plus if you've got squad players then they ought to be good enough to play. the rule about fielding full-strength sides has been a joke since at least the inception of the Champions' League.

It's not like any Swansea fans will give a shit about today if they win on Sunday I suppose.

Suarez at least bagged some assists to faintly redeem my strategy this week.

Woo! C - Suarez - 26

"I’d have him at QPR without hesitation."

hey harry how about you just fuck off already instead

seriously what a fucking pisstake, who does this cunt think he is

this club is just unreal

In football terms, JT and Rio are still right up there, better than any of the Real Madrid centre-halves who played against Manchester United in the Champions League during the week.

Fantasy football points

thought this was an FA cup game, or have i missed something

Yeah I missed that detail too. But nah, was a league game

or have i missed something

Yup, my mistake. Who can forget Liverpool's demolition of Oldham?

borini out for the rest of the season. a memorable start to his lfc career.

Poor fella. I feel for him but he worries me. I think he's a good player; but I couldn't point to anything, other than some good movement, to back that up.

Aston Villa manager Paul Lambert ready for '12 cup finals'

You've heard of three, perhaps even four (three of which were cup finals when Houllier employed this to place emphasis on the game they had to secure a CL spot) but Lambert has now upped the ante to 12! 12 fucking cup finals!

http://www.theonion.com/articles/fuck-everything-were-doing-five-blades,11056/

next season, 38 cup finals.

for Bradford on Sunday, one cup final

should be easy.

Am going to start treating social events like cup finals. Watch me fly.

The duodecuple is on!

making tea tonight is an absolute cup final of a meal for me

going to give it 110 per cent to make sure that frozen curry comes out of the microwave when it matters

I face seven cup finals in order to make it through to payday next week without breaking my overdraft limit.

I faced cup final heartbreak this morning when my train left the station as I was pulling up; fortunately I stayed focused for the replay ten minutes later.

Doing well to get to twelve cup finals, not havin won all that many cup games

Hoping team Frozen Curry is strong enough to make it through a possible punishing period if extra time.

turned up in Armani suit for a cup final of a date a few weeks ago. night was ultimately ruined by a Frenchman.

i like Paul Lambert tho

i respond to his supreme dourness

i admire the fact that he's clearly decided the squad he took over were mostly cunts and is sticking to his guns about it

every time he passes Stephen Ireland in the corridor is a cup final
