Weekend Review: Games I cared about.

GOONERS: Didn’t see the Arse but sounds like they’re getting back to form. 4-0 is a drubbing and they’ll be looking to get some momentum prior to yernited. Spuds loosing must also be a tonic for them, both in terms of local rivalry and league position

CHAV$KI: Another 3 points, but they found it hard going. They’ve stumbled to victory (fortuitously) for the last 2 games. I wonder if they had someone better in front of them if they’d have profited. They’re still shiote to watch, mind.

YERNITED: For most teams a point away is a result, but not for Manchester. Still not convinced by their midfield – although I thought Richardson (at left back?) has come on loads. Is it their destiny to be good wide and up top but to have a soft center?

LIVERPOOL: Always happy with a derby win and some nice goals, but based on form a bit disappointed we didn’t get a cricket score and a clean sheet. Funny how my expectations have moved, eh? Newcastle and the derby behind us with 6 points feels good. And I think we are begining to frustrate teams – looks at the red cards…

    A noble goal for a supposedly great club.

  • Obviously Arsenal don't want to face any of Chelsea, Liverpool, or Man United at the moment. But at least those teams are willing to play a bit of football and right now they're playing better than us.
    4-0 was against Pompey. We should batter that bunch at a minimum.

    We're so patchy at the moment and we've not been able to match up with the teams that just push us around and hope for a goal off a corner.

    I'm getting a bit sick of comments about how we miss Vieira. That's not it at all. We miss the Vieira of '03 and before. We haven't missed him and the Vieira of '04 and '05. We've just not replaced that spot with any one who can boss the game.

    Ah yes, Shankly would be proud.
