Did we affect Zolas post match interview with the singing, was at the game and can't find any links :)

Def did, they acknowledged it during the post match analysis and all had a laugh about it. It was great. Hope it makes it way on youtube.

Bit funny how Liverpool are playing against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park after the international break. :lol: Same back-to-back fixtures like last season for them.

Sometimes I wonder how "random" fixtures even are, I remember once Tottenhams last home game was Blackburn for something like 4 or 5 season's out of 5 or 6, and last decade before there relegation we didn't travel to St James Park before April for like 7 years in a row including back to back last day games there.

There's many coincidences I've noticed with the fixtures but there the main two that I can think off right now.

Well, for the past 3 seasons, we have faced Liverpool in the final 6 games of the campaign. And this time, it is no different either as we'll be playing them in our third last game. So, that's 4 seasons in a row that we face them in the back end of the campaign. :doh:

Brenden Rogers, nothing without Suarez, is a bit biggotted? anyone? I think he is over rated.

I don't rate him that highly. But tbf he is not just without Suarez, he is without Sturridge also. Sturridge was PL player of the month when Suarez was suspended last season. Both players combined for 52 league goals, many managers would struggle replacing those two players.

Anyway Liverpool are not a good team at all, but always tough winning at Anfield.

I have to say what was the point of playing Ramires on the right wing, he was playing Willian role. IDK how Willian couldn't have played his role better, then someone trying to play like him. I thought that was strange decison by Mou.

Gerrard was totally like a fish out of water as the CDM in Liverpool's midfield against us - http://vimeo.com/111345310

I don't get why Rodgers thinks hes good there. Hes very much an average player in that position and when Rodgers claimed he was one of the best in that role last season I couldn't help but laugh. I watched Liverpool play Real Madrid the other week and Lucas Leiva looked every bit better in that role than Gerrard. I mean you seen it yourself Oscar, Ramires, Hazard were bypassing him very easily, in that clip he constantly gets too tight and gets spun away from in the middle of the park and then Hazard or Oscar or Ramires or someone is running directly towards their back 4.

I kept hearing pundits and commentators gushing over him being such a wonderful 'quarterback' last season. Now admittedly I know nothing about American Football other than that they play in a helmet and massive oversized shoulder pads with an overgrown egg for a ''ball'', but is quarterback the equivalent of a midfielder whose legs are gone and who's actually quite shit the moment someone gets within 5 metres of him?

I think the thing that helped Steven Gerrard look good last season was teams reluctance to press Liverpool at times because of Sturridge and Suarez's pace and movement up top. He had all the time he wanted in some games and could do whatever he wanted because the game was in front of him. When people started marking him he struggled.

I honestly don't get Rodger's comments about Gerrard being a top top player in that position or whatever it was that he put it, defensively as the third center back or quarterback or whatever you want to call it he is extremely poor. Lucas Leiva's defensive side of his game is 10 times better than Gerrards but sure he can play a 30 or 40 meter diagonal pass if you give him time and space I mean even I can do that if I've got all the time in the world and I'm certain most people could do the same.

True, but they show consistency- something the other teams doesn't.

They had already beaten teams that spurs and Liverpool didn't.

They will have now some tough games ahead, we will see.

It would be absolutley fantastic if they could nick 2 points from two of the top teams.

Southampton are our allies :) they can really help us secure the title if they keep playing like this.

It wasn't really that much. Jake Humphrey mentions that the fans were chanting Franco's name, something the great man already knew judging from the grin on his face. Legend 25 acknowledged the fans in that shy, slightly embarrassed way he does, the pundit panel at pitchside had a giggle at him and they moved on. Six seconds screen time tops.
