Absolutely embarrassing.I say this often, but it's amazing that a club as big as ourselves who want to compete for every trophy has the weakest strike force of any of the top 5 sides in England.

18 goals for Sturridge. 18!

Ha!They're literally the mirror of us. Brilliant in attack but shit defensively. We struggle a lot in attack but are the best defense.

Liverpool's attack is just ridiculous. Allows them to just blow teams out of the water if they allow them to play. Teams like ourselves and City who can dominate the midfield are much better equipped to combat Liverpool though. Just can't see them being able to just do as they please against us or City. Crazy, though, that they have 2 strikers that will have 20+ goals each. We have Torres and Eto'o who won't reach 20 between them. Make the job José has done to get us top even more amazing. We're top of the bloody league with NO STRIKERS! Mental.

lolnoThat's how you finish 3rd or 4th every season.

Arsenal once more showing exactly what they are. Ultimate flat track bullies. They demolish all of the poor sides and get demolished themselves against the top ones.

Positives: Our entire back 4 were excellent. Matic was absolutely fucking immense. Gets my MOTM. Negatives: Just about all of our attacking players. We DESPERATELY need a top class striker and this match was even further evidence of that.

Poor by his standards I should've said.He's tried to take his man on several times and given it away.

Or form has just completely gone out the window since the West Brom game. Dominated in the second half of that game, dominated totally by City, and now outplayed at home by Everton after having a week to rest and prepare. Concerning. Oscar has been very disappointing for a while now and Hazard has now had 3 poor showings in a row. Worst possible time to go through a slump.

Everton doing to us what we should be doing to them. WAKE THE HELL UP!

I bet it would be for him. He wants to feel like he's the king of the castle. We saw what playing second fiddle to RvP did to him last season. Now he'll be on more money, know that United were desperate to keep him, and they'll give him captaincy to make him feel like the big man on campus.I'm also sure they've insured him that they'll be making some huge signings this summer. Whether Moyes can attract those is a different story. Let's hope not. Without CL football next season if they can still sign a few world class players they'll have way fewer matches than the rest of the big clubs and it can be like Liverpool this season. Lots of rest between matches and full focus on the league.

Captaincy is only a matter of time.Penetrated their assholes and will finish inside too. Embarrassing.

Fleeced the club again. No other club in world football would give him near that amount which just shows how utterly desperate they are to keep him. I really can see them moving RvP on in the summer and making Rooney their #9 with Mata, Januzaj, and a new winger behind him. They just can't effectively play all of these players together. When ourselves, City, Arsenal, and Liverpool all strengthen more in the summer and are better sides next season, let's see how Wayne will act if he goes 2 straight seasons without CL football.

Have a strong feeling this'll be one of those games we all hate to see our side go against. Can see it being a lame defensive stalemate for the majority of the match with neither side threatening goal. One team will then get a really late goal and win 1-0. Just hope we look like we actually have a plan in the final third this time. Don't play at walking pace like we did against West Brom and don't act like headless chickens with ZERO ideas like we did against West Ham. The game plan should be to move the ball quickly and use width. Don't have Hazard playing more through the middle than on the flanks where he's been a world beater. Absolutely crucial 3 points. Everyone talking about the title or us being locked in the top 3. If we lose this one and Liverpool & Spuds win theirs we'll be in a serious battle just for top 4. Which is insane considering how shit Spuds have been this season and their pathetic goal difference.

Only an insane offer to Bayern or an offer to triple his wages would probably get him. He's going nowhere. Hope Moyes flails around all summer with Kroos like he did with Fabregas and doesn't get him.

Would be an amazing transfer. If only we could sell Torres. Don't know how I feel about selling Lukaku to be honest. Having him as our #2 striker after Cavani would be awesome. Wish we could somehow wipe our current striker options clean and start completely over. Torres, Eto'o, and Ba all out and Cavani, Lukaku, and a third cheaper, proven third option in. Will be almost impossible to sell Torres.

It's disappointing that we played terribly apparently, but I'm not too bothered about going out. More rest for the players and more focus on the league. Worrying, though, that so many here are saying Hazard looked so poor. Hopefully Everton or some small team can fluke the FA Cup again. Anyone but City or Arse.

Glad I'm not watching judging by this thread. Hopefully we haven't peaked too early in the season. We can't afford to suddenly play like shit with Liverpool and Spuds steadily creeping up behind us. Not to mention Arse and City.

Jesus! When I read the quotes I thought he'd said it smiling in a joking way. He was dead serious there! Fucking love it! We HAVE to back up this kind of arrogance on the pitch, though, or José is gonna hear it big time.

Makes sense and I hope that's the case. Everton game FAR more important.

What the fuck!? I thought JT had a slight niggle and was kept out as a precaution that first match he missed? Now he's STILL out? Cahill now too. Injuries at the worst possible time.

Not moaning about it. Just makes me shake my head seeing us carrying on with useless donkey Torres and seeing a player we sold them scoring for fun and threatening us.Must be how Arse felt last season.

It doesn't make you even a little angry that we sold him there and he's now got 16 league goals? Kinda pisses me off a bit. We have no strikers and they have 2 that will get 20+ goals each a season.

Spuds are gonna get yet ANOTHER 1-0 win aren't they? Steadily creeping up on us. Another side we have to worry about if we slip up against Everton.

C'mon Agent Mata! Do us a favor tonight. I need something to lift my spirits after yesterday.
