Sandro Rosells reaction when Valdes said "I'm the best keeper and deserve to get paid the same as Casillas" (As the rumours state)

I can't imagine too many matches where we would play like this though. If he improved his passing then I suppose so but I don't know if that will come now.
If he plays then I'd guess it'd be during games where we'll sit back and look to counter. I'm hoping we try to move away from that. But if we do, we need players with more pace on the break. Welbeck did seem like the only player who'd turn and run at players but he doesn't have that much pace.

Fergus sign up Zaha!!
 
Currently he's behind Vidic/Rio/Evans/Smalling for a CB spot. And Rafael is a better right-back than him too.

But I think Jones is talented enough to warrant a place in our squad in some sort of position.
And that's his role, 5th choice CB and back up RB.

He will get better but for now there are other players ahead of him.

At CB Rio and Vidic is the best partnership. Today and against Liverpool they were really composed, much more reassuring.

Oh shit Falcao down. Wasn't tackled, just held his leg and now sitting. Bad luck Andres. :(

Looks like he pulled something.

Subbed off.
 
Woop Make it Nastasic got me 2 bonus points in FPL.

Damn Suarez got 3 so Hitcher gets a nice boost. Theo got none :(

65 points, Fellers to play and Theo (C), Gibbs and Demel to go again.

Very disappointed that we lost and more importantly how poorly we played in the first half. I can't understand why rather than address the issues with our squad and how he start games Wenger chooses to complain about the referee risking a ban from the FA which we can do without. Against city we started poorly, against Swansea we started poorly but weren't punished because Swansea were also poor, and again against Chelsea started poorly and against city and Chelsea we were not able to recover.

I hope like hell Arteta is fit for the Liverpool game and we better beat West Ham on Wednesday. We can not afford anymore losses. The trip to white hart lane is going to be a very big game now.

Damn for real? shit. Well he has 2 months to get healthy for our games against Bolivia and Venezuela.

I'm watching the nfl pregame show.
 
Congratulations!

You're still well placed. You have Clyne and Puncheon who will pick up some cheap points at the least and maybe surprise you.

Then midweek you have Santi. Even if Walcott does something you've got him in your team to offset Captain points. If Santi scores + bonus then those points are all yours :(

Can't believe Barca lost yesterday.

Their first league loss of the season.

Reading's first away win of the season.

Both are connected...

HOLY !!! What a goal! Hahaha 2-0

Koke with a great curler.

These Atleticunts are catching up.
The big game I am waiting for is Valencia vs Real Madrid. I placed a bet at the start of the season that Valencia would finish 4th and the gap is closing but can't afford a loss here.

Honestly can't believe it either lol.

The first game of the season that I didn't watch too. Got home, went onto livescore and thought it said 2-2. I was disappointed :(.

Then I realised it said 3-2.

This can't be legit. Impressive if so though.

Seems like realistic statistics to me.

I wonder if Frogie will drop DDG for his mistake.

He doesn't deserve it and he's a better keeper than Lindegaard.

Hasn't stopped Frogie from dropping him before though.

Was going to ask you why'd you do that when Malaga and Atletico are both better but damn Betis is in 4th :O
 
I think this week could see a big switcharound in the FPL. Points all over the place, no braces or massive scorers yet. Could change with Arsenal's double gameweek though. Viva stretching his lead to unreachable levels though.

Don't get too cocky though Viva. There's a rule which I forgot to tell you, UEFA style. If anyone takes a 30 point lead, they're removed from the league with a refund.
