[Halmeister]

Typical kiddy shot that

 

[Athens]

Streams?

Get yourself sorted with a fire stick or something like that.

All the cool kids are doing it.

The one I'm watching is really good actually.

 

[Halmeister]

Berahino is a good player.

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

And me

 

[Athens]

The stream you're watching? I always had issues with streams, so far with the old stick I've been amazed at the quality.

 

[Bradley]

Same here, stick of fire is rocking it.

Yeah it's just a normal browser stream, it's really good.

I'm getting superfast broadband in a couple of weeks and then I'll be able to just use HD ace streams, but right now they just don't run well enough.

 

[willby]

Aguero coming on.

 

[Ryan]

I thought you wanted me to argue less?

You really need to give this silly theory up.

"theory"?

It isn't a fucking theory Peter. It's 100% football reality, and has been for years.

From the WBA - City game report in the Guardian:

Pulis blamed himself for operating with a 4-4-2 formation, in his desire to partner Saido Berahino with Rickie Lambert, rather than having an extra man in midfield.

“It was the wrong choice and sometimes, as manager, you have to accept the responsibility,” he said. “If anyone is criticised, it has to be me.”

Didn't watch the game, but I reckon he should probably be raked over coals for going 4-4-2 against City.

 

[Judge Jules]

Berahino is a good player.

Yep, and one who's kicked Aidy Ward into touch, so he's going to have a good career.

 

[Judge Jules]

It seems a fair few Liverpool fans have made it to the Hawthornes too in their cause to follow Sterling around the globe booing him.

It's good to hear, but it isn't Reds doing it. These things always become a fashion for a while. It's like the booing of Suarez after the Evra nonsense.

 

[mark1975]

Glad the little shite didnt score anyway.

 

[ILD]

Didn't see the game, how did Sterling play?

 

[the count]

Didn't see the game, how did Sterling play?

Missed an easy one on one with the keeper.
Pretty anonymous really.

 

[peterhague]

Looked like he could do great things, but didn't. Kind of typical of him, really.

I'm still fascinated to see how he gets on there.

 

[Skullflower]

He's so much better than ibe

Oh I know, I was being sarcastic. Tyldsley (I think) claimed that when England played Ireland it was the Irish reds in the crowd booing him. And then when City had a friendly in Australia and he got booed again, another commentator said it must have been reds in the crowd there too. Maybe people just think he's a twat?

Carra with Martinez on MNF, reviewing parts of the Everton - Watford game. I thought it was interesting they had a manager in to analyze and explain some decisions or aspects of the game that they'd just managed. Is this something new or had they done this previously?
