Weekend's Games

[Jack D Rips]

Bit worrying this - another title contender that does not concede goals while winning games. The premier league is so fucking difficult now - at this rate we really cannot afford to lose a game. I watched the Chelsea game today and it really was an all traditional Italian style of play; They just wait for that initial chance and then have that confidence to sit back and defend and hit on the counter. However, having said that - Southampton hardly got enough men in the penalty box area to resolve the situation - they would advance and try but never commit enough men into the box to cause an issue.

In case you didn't notice, we have already played Chelsea ( at their own ground) and their traditional Italian style of play, and when they were waiting for that initial chance, and to then have the confidence to sit back and hit on the counter, we had already scored two goals. So they were fucked!

Chelsea will finish 4th, behind Spurs in 2nd & City in 3rd.

Man Utd will finish 5th.

We're winning the league.

I told you all this in July.

Arsenal look much much better than Spurs, they're a strange exclusion.

Waiting for the day to see Rodwell, Barkley and Wilshere in the same midfield.

That midfield would be the football equivalent of the Italians in World War II.

 

[Modo]

Nah ... maybe top class talent, but he's maybe been a top class player a few games in his career so far .... and he's never shown at England with rather decent players around him.

Really think Barkley would add something to our current midfield. His runs, strength, shooting would definitely give us another dimension.

Whatever - they'll fuck it up & be out of everything by the end of Feb

I like Barkley too, but he wouldn't get into our team at the moment

Who would he replace? Doesnt seem to have the best work rate and seem thick as pigshite.
Great technical ability though even though he contribute all that much.

Maybe not, but he's being wasted at Everton. Like you've mentioned before we will probably never see him play for us. Don't think he'd be able to live in the city if he did and in today's market Everton would ask us for twice as much as Man U paid for Pogba. Just because...

I thought pig shite was a bit runny.
Anyhow, Klopp could probably turn him into a top class player.
I buy him every year I play a new FIFA season.

I dunno. Is he being wasted? I don't think so really. He's just being inconsistent, and perhaps not being afforded the tactical and formational (?) set up to get the best out of him

Not convinced a move elsewhere will suddenly elevate him. He needs to show it at Woodison first.

He has got that certain something about him, though.

That's what I mean by him being wasted. He has enormous potential and maybe he'll improve surrounded by a better manager and better players.

 

[Hansern]

That wont be with us. You can find more talented players outside the Premier league for half the fee Everton would want. And they would never sell to us anyway.

 

[cloggypop]

Fucking hell. Bony has remembered how to score.

Yep. Yep. And yep.

Joe Allen has been directly involved in more Premier League goals this season (6) than Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Paul Pogba combined (5).

Wee Joe was great yesterday. He's been really good every time I've seen Stoke this season and bothered looking at the telly.

He's a wonderful human being. Wee Joe has been good for Stoke. Really good.

I could hear his voice....
