You used 'gastronome'. I think its fair to say your vocab isn't that small... I am constantly amazed by the more obscure words non-english speakers use sometimes. Would definitely have some people I know grabbing a dictionary... Oh and italian food is the best. Hands down.

I think it looks awful but the second kit is even worse. Third kit isn't so bad.

Dug out another. Please form an orderly queue.

Well, gee, thanks. I won't lie, that is one of my better photos.

Well it took me a couple of a years to see it for what it was, so I guess it wasn't all doom and gloom. But honestly, get contents insurance. I've been broken into and burgled in three separate houses. Once they stole my Dyson. Was not happy.

Honestly the few good things about Southampton are it only takes 20 minutes to walk from one end of town to the other. And the sirens from Marchwood have the novelty of making you feel like you're in Silent Hill. Otherwise its a crime-ridden, over-expensive cesspit with an awful nightlife and next to nothing to do.

But without Matic its even more important to focus on protecting that back line. At the end of the day though I just hope that a full week between games is enough to work out a decent strategy.

I think its a case of park the bus and wait for an opening. Don't get caught out. It might not be pretty but we need a solid defence on this one. Sit Fab deep, and hope he can get Costa on the end of a few nice balls over the top.

True, although even when I was doing Mechanical Design at university it was only through the connection of a family friend that I was offered a job (on condition of graduation) in San Diego. I ended up dropping out before completing my degree though.

Tbh most of the jobs I've ever got are from who I know, and not what I know...

A year and a half?! Jeez. I guess I should stop complaining! What are you studying? Hopefully your degree will open a few doors for you.

In the United States it is customary to tip. No amount of excellent service will make a poor student feel to tip me. And bar jobs here are minimum wage. The difficulty also is I am unemployed because the bar I worked in closed down, as is the case with so many drinking establishments at the moment (feels like a new one closes its doors every week). The truth is there aren't even bar jobs going now either, and there are scores of people with bar experience now also unemployed for competition. Yeah, I'm 1992. I understand that everyone is struggling really, and it could be a lot worse for me, but it's still pretty disheartening. It's been seven weeks, and I feel too ashamed to sign on but I might have to soon.

Ditto. I've been interviewing for more than a month now. Applied for upwards of 100 jobs. Vowed to break out of the bar industry, but its starting to feel like it's the only place that will have me. If I wasn't for the fact I'm stuck dealing with hospital appointments with no foreseeable end for the time being I'd probably move away from this soul-destroying city.

The museums are free. My favourite is the British Museum because of all the Ancient Egyptian and Greek stuff it has. And the street entertainment in Covent Garden sometimes has something decent.

Its between Costa and Matic for me. I feel like we miss Matic the most when he doesn't play, though.

Someone photoshopped gerard's slip onto the TV in the background, and I thought it was real for a good few minutes. Like they have that moment on replay on every TV in the building...

I guess pretty steadily around 2 a year. Always want another as I'm leaving the shop... No plans for any more as yet. Not for a long time.

I've got nine, but thats it for me for a long time now. Half sleeve, inner wrist, inner forearm, ribs, upper back, back of thighs, front of left thigh, inner ankle and inside lip. My most recent and my favouriteeeeee.

It might have only been 15 minutes, but what I got from watching him - He's quick and intelligent and has good movement off the ball. Excited to see what's to come.

I always had a soft spot for Oscar, but if he doesn't show improvements and soon, I think he needs to be gone this summer. Could pick up a pretty penny.

Willian MOTM. Only player that looked like he wanted it for the entire time he was on the pitch. Cuadrado has made things interesting. Despite the fact Zouma deserved to keep a run of games, Cahill actually was pretty solid today. We all love Drogba, but I'm starting to think he's past it. Remy to start against Everton.

Jesus Christ! That was awful.

True. Personal experience though, I can't remember the last woman that complained to me about being stuck in the friendzone... Countless blokes though. I'll do better not to discriminate next time.

I meant to all the defeatists that are worrying about Villa.
