Weekend other games

[Modo]

Good goal but the defending once he got to the edge of the area was embarrassing. The two Bolton defenders pretty much let him run through unchallenged.

It was the turn on the halfway line that made it a bit special. The rest was Ben Arfa running towards goal in a straight line.

Would've surprised me if he zig-zaged despite not being challenged until he came close to the box.

 

[HC]

I seem to remember someone scoring against us in a similar fashion, i.e. completely unchallenged on the way to goal.

Henry?

He danced through the box but the defending was atrocious

Henry?

there was that one.
no, it was this season and I think it was away, anyway, the player picks up the ball in midfield (maybe halfway between the goal and the halfway line) and runs in a straight line towards goal completely unchallenged and then toe pokes the ball past riena. the defending was comical.

 

[HC]

Was it the Bolton match we lost 3-1* ?

 

[Fabio]

Reo cokers?

 

[spider-Neil]

yep, I think that's it.

 

[Molbystwin]

Oh and if there's a better goal this season than Ben Arfa's from yesterday I haven't seen it.

What a talent that boy is.

Pretty woeful defending mind you but yeah.... great goal. who was the lad in the Fulham game on MOTD who looked pretty nifty... at least I think it was the Fulham game...

 

[livvy145]

Most likely Kerim Frei. Thought Dempsey was excellent yesterday for Fulham.

No it was an anglo sounding name.... My minds so fuzzy i cant even remember if it was the fulham highlights...

 

[Molbystwin]

NO!!!

you are right!

Frei it was... swiss lad.... looked nifty... In fact wasnt he the one who wqas touted as the next big thing last summer??? all the big clubs sniffing etc.... how the fuck did he end up at Fulham??

How the fuck did henderson end up at Anfield more importantly???

 

[Rouge Penguin]

Arfa's goal was great, terrible from Bolton though.

Personally, i thought Cisse's chip against Swansea was better, digging it out from under his feet while falling.

 

[Rouge Penguin]

I think 'Arry putty face is doing it on purpose.

Imagine getting 2nd or 3rd, then leaving. He'd be murdered by the fans. If they're not in the CL and have slowly fallen away, then he can leave much easier with no repercussions as they're unlikely to even get Europe at this rate

[spider-Neil]

I like how his expectations are lowered with every article.

harry rednapp is confident that tottenham wont be relagated

oh........when..........the...........saints............drop.............like.............a..............stone...............

QPR's Shaun Derry has had his claim for wrongful dismissal rejected by the Football Association. The midfielder was sent off against Manchester United on Saturday.

 

[HC]

I wish someone within Football had the balls to boot fucking cheats out of the game - Young went down like a sack of shit at the weekend. He should be the one missing games, not Derry.

ridiculous

 

[Rouge Penguin]

Have a look at Ream for Bolton after Ameobi turned him. He defied gravity, flying the opposite way as if an extra in crouching tiger hidden dragon. I wouldn't be surprised if the lino heard him shout mummy.

That's what's wrong with the game.

 

[Leo]

I really don't get it why clubs appeal these bans.
If they sent their case to Judge Judy rather than the F.a they would have a far better chance.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

ridiculous

The FA is right 99.5% of the time. You really believe they're wrong?

 

[Sunny]

QPR's Shaun Derry has had his claim for wrongful dismissal rejected by the Football Association. The midfielder was sent off against Manchester United on Saturday.

Just reinforces the view that the FA are a complete fucking farce.

 

[HC]

Surely the FA couldn't possibly turn against a ref who took objection to cheating and began brandishing cards at divers and actors?

It's the sort of thing where all you really need is a few high profile red cards and it should be in the main, knocked on the head.

 

[Hansern]

Hahaha, not overturning a red card given in a offside position an with a blatant dive just sums up the FA.

 

[livvy145]

City 1-0

Wolves 0-2 Arse - van Persie pen, Walcott - Bassong sent off

Wigan 0-0 Scum - All Wigan

 

[Leo]

Sacking McCarthy has really worked out for Wolves eh?

 

[Hansern]

Wigan have a goal disallowed. Wrongley..

The exact same thing that happened to us re Stoke. Caldwell just stood infront of De Gea. Pathetic

Eventually, it will stop ...

 

[Piedro]

HC - what would you do about Suarez then??

 

[Hansern]

Eventually, it will stop ...

It will last until the day Fergie quits I reckon
