Weekend's other games

[Whaddapie]

Horrible tackle by Asta-whatshisface. Dunno what the chavs players are complaining about...

Followed by Delaney acting the complete twat to immediately wipe out the advantage. Muppet.

 

[cloggypop]

Might have to switch to Newcastle now. Everton are playing far too well and Chelsea are boring and lucky.

 

[Hansern]

You should watch Arsenal - Hull mate

 

[Hansern]

Ronaldo has 15 goals in the first 8 league games. Insane!

Wednesday will be fun...

 

[Jack D Rips]

Ibe scores for Derby

 

[Hansern]

Southampton - Sunderland 8-0

 

[Shadey]

8-0 wtf

 

[Red Mullet]

Did we buy the wrong Southampton?

 

[Jack D Rips]

Amazing the way the manager of the month always loses the next match. Oh wait ..................

 

[MaBigTip]

Ronald Koeman is a good manager. His confidence rubs off.

 

[redhorizon2]

They're players have adjusted really well, wonder why ours haven't.

 

[Hansern]

Dusan Tadic looks class

 

[Red Mullet]

Jeez, the Newcastle vs Leicester game is dull

 

[dantes]

Cavani had one of the great sendings off. Uruguayans should know better by now.

Celebrated a goal with a Batistuta machine gun bollocks. Yellow. Went up to the ref in shock. Second yellow. Done.

 

[ILD]

1 goal and 4 assists from Tadic.

 

[Modo]

Easy money - Southampton.

 

[Piedro]

[Piedro]

[Piedro]

Modos back

 

[Piedro]

Tell a friend

 

[Mystic]

Easy money - Southampton.

They're going to collapse I tell you, you'll lose the bet.

Based on the Match of the Day highlights, that Sunderland performance was the worst I've ever seen by a professional team.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

3 points tomorrow would be so good for the team's confidence ... we've had a poor start to the season, but 3 points and we're right back there fighting for the 2-4 spots as Chelsea are doing what they did the first year Mourinho managed them (winning everything, even when playing like shite).

Anyone see MOurinho's comments this weekend about us?

They're going to collapse I tell you, you'll lose the bet.

Maybe not collapse, but I'd expect them to go cold and gradually slide backwards as they start playing the tougher teams.

3 of their 5 wins so far have been against Sunderland, QPR and Newcastle (3 of the current bottom 4). They beat Swansea, another team with a hot start but now with 0 wins in 4 league games and West Ham (granted they did what we didn't do against this lot). The two times they played teams which finished above them (us, Spurs), they lost, albeit by a one-goal margin each.

I expected them to do much poorer this season, so the run of results has taken me by surprise, but I still expect them to fizzle down the road. From Nov 30 to Jan 10, they have 9 league games, during which they play Arsenal twice, Man Utd twice, City, Chelsea and Everton. Staying in the top 6 at the end of that stretch will make me change my mind about them.

 

[cloggypop]

I did say we should get Tadic.

 

[Modo]

I did say we should get Tadic.

you did

 

[StevieM]

Southampton finishing top four at the expense of Arsenal, Spurs, Everton or ManUre is very acceptable to me.

 

[Hansern]

Southampton have had a pretty decent fixture list so far. Its only a matter of time before they are 6th and downwards.

 

[themn]

Ibe scores for Derby

Bare Skillz!

 

[jimmy]

Bring him back!
