i heard. it´s not just the refs but also the linesmen. really poor display by some of them.

poor refereeing the whole weekend. just goes on here.

Totally. If they do, hopefully we can capitalise in that.

What a goal by Bennet. Sweet strike !

Yes, they should´ve been steamrollerd more often after the City game. That was a United performance that is more likely given the way they play and the quality of their team. It just shows that the state of the other teams.

Had a handful in Victor Moses, but dealt good with him i think, given that he pretty much was thrown in the deep end against such a physical force. His crosses and runs on the sideline were promissing. Like him alot as a player, clearly he went to the Ashley Cole School for Advanced Left Back Studies.

They guy has to much class and cool for City anyway. Would be huge risk to take him abord, but he is a very creative and talented footballer. And an enigma, a masterclass of a riddle. Mind, Mancini said that Tevez was finished.

How would have a different result changed something about that ?

What is it with Arsenal lately ? Surely they couldn´t have turned into a decent team ? Very annyoing, i liked the Arsenal of old better, the one that collapsed around christmas and was loosing to Blackpool (no disrespect) away and home and so on.

We probably didn´t deserve to win this or even get a draw out of the game, but i so don´t care. If one of the Manc teams did it that way everyone would shout "stuff of champions". We did it, made hard on ourselves, but lots of the players actually looked very leggy and tired. As much as Mata should have a rest, we simply can´t afford to rest the guy. We just need him so much for some sense of creativity. Torres looked good, but what was that slipping there in the penalty area ? Man of the Match: Bertrand or Cahill for me.

What was the result of the corresponding fixture last season ?

would be a shame losing Romeu after such a short but promissing spell.

Can´t do nothing else than playing the best they can. I am sure the boys will be in the right state of mind against this shower. The tricky thing is that FA Cup game against Spurs. Wether we gonna rest a few key players or play a nearly full strength team and go on to secure at least one final? I don´t know. Players like Mereleis, Malouda and Essien have to step up their game for the Spurs match as I expect them start. Oh my, it is squeaky bum time, certainly. But the astonishing thing is that we are in this position in the first place. I wouldn´t be dissapointed if we lose to B-Lona, if it was under fair circumstances, but win the FA Cup. Having said that, it would make up for a lot of pain that we sufferend in ´09. Hopefully Drogba will be up to his best and fucking disgrace them.

oh no, fucking no. the worst of timing.

spot on. That has to be changed anyway, for a number of reasons.

I think that there is the part that the institutions play in fighting against racism,sexism and antisemitism but then there is also the individual behavoir of the fans, the players everyday that matter to be changed. Whishfull thinking, i know. Like Chelsea (do other clubs do it as well? ) did against Tottenham to install extra secruity staff to make sure that the chants against jewish people weren´t going is a very good thing but it just puts the lid on some of the peoples behavior and they might go on and sing these things in the pub anyway. As i was saying, it is one thing to relay on the FA, but it is another to take documentaries like these seriously and try to cut out the bullshit, basicially.

Do we have a schedule yet for the Barca game ? Sorry, just found it. Nevermind.

yep the hetero camouflage.

Disgusting. The middle name does him justice.

About bloody time. Seriously, why should women expect a "few comments" ? On what even ? On their gender ?They should be treated equaly, infact no different to a man, but till then it is a long way to go. You wouldn´t hear comments towards a "lad" that are bringing him down to his male gender in a demeaning way, and if so it would be that he was called something that is supposed to be a female thing. It is not sexist to report about the sick stuff that women have to put up with if they want to work or even live in an enviorment that is "male dominated" (as if this would explain something on it´s own).

I was hoping for Mereleis to the decent thing in the end ... and rip the net into pieces. After all that booing at Da Luz he just had to score, that icecold maddafucka.

Why so nervy, lads ? Wasn´t really all plain sailing. Thanks to some naive defending and some frustration of the Benfica players we are one nill up.Keep the heads, string together the passes and Keep playing football, not hiding. Credit to Benfica though who´ve been playing forward and positively.

I am gonna drink delicious gin and tonics, talking about multitasking

haha true that.

mint.
