Can't believe I woke up for this. Was hoping some Torres "magic" would keep me awake.

And suddenly it becomes just a tad interesting...

RvP scored 2 goals earlier this season from that EXACT spot.... both to the left and right of the keeper. That one was right at the keeper.

Anybody gonna watch the UFC PPV tonight? I know Viva likes his fighting.

It should be a great one, Jon Jones never disappoints.
 
lukaku's an extremely limited footballer. he is useless outside of the box.

Pretty much this, he's a rough "diamond", give him a few more years to become a proper football player. Doesn't help that his amazing physical attributes (for his age) aren't as good in the EPL where the game is overly physical and fast.

In Belgium where defenders are much weaker and slower, Lukaku could easily hold them off and shove them around. He couldn't dribble, shoot from mid range nor pass though, he mostly scored tap ins thanks to his big bulky body. But he's just 18, he might come good, give him a few seasons. Apparently he wants to go back on loan next season to Anderlecht and the club is preparing an offer.

Jon Jones is great. I stopped watching UFC, incidentally, when he was making his ascent. Somehow just lost interest.

Pretty dull game so far. Lots of speedy runs but not much else.

Should probably not trust the 7-11 security cameras quite so much
Both teams have defended dreadfully. Arsenal should have scored 3 and Chelsea should have had a penalty. Arsenals CBs are stepping out of defence too much.
 
Yeah there's no structure to the Arsenal back four. That's why Chelsea are looking to hit them on the counter and are having reasonable success.

Really need Mata on for some coordination in our attack. Aimless so far, despite the amount of space Arsenal are giving us.
