Even though there are another round of games straight after this on the 2nd/3rd/4th, thought id keep them in seperate threads. Anyway should be comfortable wins for the top 6

No Suarez for Liverpool. Hoofball to Carroll might not be the worst thing in the world for them to try.

Master Splinter

Blackburn :rose:.

Marc Overmars

What are the odds United will be top for the new year? They're bound to score another 5 vs Blackeye and Sunderland have looked a little more resilient since MON took over.

Fergie. :rolleyes:

Time to piss off tbf.

Actually, no one else can stop City so just stay until it all ends in tears for them.

Cripps_orig
30-12-2011, 11:52 AM
Well they'll be top mainly because City play a day later

Marc Overmars
30-12-2011, 11:57 AM
Me. :lol:

Top having played the same number of games then.

Cripps_orig
30-12-2011, 12:02 PM
Did one of the mods add the 1000th thread in the title?

Anyway Man Utd might well be top come the end of this round of games but City will spend £100m in January and will walk the title. Boringest title race in years. The excitement is in the race for 4th place. All 3 teams going for it are a bit shit but much like City buying their way to the title, you can see Chelsea doing likewise to get top 4. I dont care enough about the relegation scrap so this season is turning out to be a shit one.

Roll on Euro 2012 tbh

Xhaka Can’t

I added the 1000th thread bit to the title.

Tbh I don't really care much about the league title either this year. All I am concerned with is how our team plays and whether our players put in the effort and work as hard as I feel they should.

And from that perspective, with a few individual exceptions, I am happy. I think the players are behind the Manager and are doing him proud. I just wish they were better players, of the calibre we had during the golden years, but they aren't and I doubt they ever will be again in the short to medium term.

We are at the level we should be, which is not the level we were promised. I'm a bit pissed by that, but I could go on being angry about it , but that would be wasted energy.

Would be nice however to see admission prices reflecting the level we are at, but there is a bigger chance of us signing Messi, Ronaldo and keeping Van Persie than that happening any time soon.

Syn
30-12-2011, 03:07 PM
Agreed GB.

Also, glad that there's a game on the screen later. Hope Ba delivers the lols.

Sky's programme starts soon. Come on the Barcodes.

Shaqiri Is Boss
30-12-2011, 07:04 PM
Reina, Johnson, Enrique, Skrtel, Agger, Adam, Henderson, Spearing, Downing, Carroll, Bellamy.

Subs: Doni, Maxi, Kuyt, Gerrard, Carragher, Shelvey, Kelly.

Pretty much picked itself.

Krul, Simpson, Coloccini, Williamson, R Taylor, Gutierrez, Tiote, Vuckic, Cabaye, Obertan, Ba.

Subs: Elliot, Santon, Ben Arfa, Perch, Best, Shola Ameobi, Sammy Ameobi.

That is a weak back 4.

We'll score 2.

McNamara That Ghost...
30-12-2011, 07:07 PM
Did Carroll intentionally go in to the away dressing room first? :unsure:

McNamara That Ghost...
30-12-2011, 07:32 PM
Ah a retrospective on the 4-3 from 1996, for the millionth time.

Rors
30-12-2011, 07:33 PM
The 4-3 game has lost all meaning...

Syn
30-12-2011, 07:34 PM
Caroll's going to do it today. Hat-trick hero.

Really shit odds but I have a fiver on him scoring a hat-trick at 16/1. I wouldn't have done it unless I was near certain.

Come on football.

And more importantly, come on Christmas.

McNamara That Ghost...
30-12-2011, 07:37 PM
The 4-3 game has lost all meaning...

It's the only Premmier League game that is reserved the huge build-up every season. Very odd.

Rors

"It's still the best" - of course Martin....

Dennis Bendtner

Struggling to work out why Obama gets games. Ben Arfa has to be better. Even Sammy Ameobi probably is. Well, the best player in his family at least.

McNamara That Ghost...
30-12-2011, 07:52 PM
Ah it's just like 1996 watching this match. :rolleyes:

McNamara That Ghost...

Agger shoots, nowhere near the goal or anybody else.

Charlie Adam is basically Gerrard.

McNamara That Ghost...

Ba. :lol:

McNamara That Ghost...
30-12-2011, 08:02 PM
Jose Enrique plays one across goal, nobody running in to tap it in.

Rors
30-12-2011, 08:03 PM
"Whip it in" - He's a wordsmith that Carroll.

McNamara That Ghost...
30-12-2011, 08:05 PM
Obama. :haha:

Even Lee Probert can tackle him.

McNamara That Ghost...
30-12-2011, 08:09 PM
Krul got lucky there.

Syn
30-12-2011, 08:09 PM
Should've been a card for R Taylor. Fair play to the negrito for not making much of it.

McNamara That Ghost...

Liverpool 0-1 Barcodes, Agger OG. :bow:

Liverpool. :haha:

Oh dear Tyler

The cameras were focusing on that guy walking off the pitch. Liverpool were very slow to pick up what was happening.

McNamara That Ghost...
30-12-2011, 08:14 PM
Gutierrez has come across to give Johnson a good kicking now. Booked, too.

McNamara That Ghost...
30-12-2011, 08:15 PM
Adam. :haha:

Atrocious.

1-1. Calm down Rupert son...

5 Newcastle defenders in the 6yard box with no shape at all. Glad to have them back :bow:

4-3 anyone?

You can shut up and all...

McNamara That Ghost...

Skrtel heads one just wide, Adam somehow missed it. I've seen this game before I think.

As cynical as you get from Ryan Taylor there. :lol: Booked.

Syn
30-12-2011, 08:22 PM
Ryan Taylor should be off by now.

McNamara That Ghost...
30-12-2011, 08:26 PM
Carroll. :doh:

McNamara That Ghost...
30-12-2011, 08:28 PM
Did Carroll mean to pass to Bellamy or did he just scuff the cross? :unsure:

McNamara That Ghost...

Three added minutes.

Well done them.

"An old boy, but not the one you might have thought" - That's a good one Jones...

It might be Cabaye's goal actually. Jamie's suggestion? Bring on Stevie Me. :rolleyes:

McNamara That Ghost...
30-12-2011, 08:51 PM
Santon on, Ryan Taylor hauled off.

McNamara That Ghost...

I think Vuckic is Hleb in disguise.

McNamara That Ghost...

Downing shoots, it'll probably land in Goodison Park.

McNamara That Ghost...
30-12-2011, 08:57 PM
Cabaye took out Adam, pretty horrible challenge really.

Shaqiri Is Boss
30-12-2011, 08:58 PM
That's got to get him a retrospective ban. Surely.

McNamara That Ghost...
30-12-2011, 09:01 PM
Brilliant clearance from Carroll! And he committed a foul too. :haha:

Rors
30-12-2011, 09:01 PM
Carroll clears one. "At least he get on the end of it" says Smudger. Yep Andy son, it really has come to this... Poor bastard :lol:

Master Splinter
30-12-2011, 09:05 PM
Cabaye :doh:.

Stevie Me on.

McNamara That Ghost...

Cabaye delivers a freekick like Adam.

Here comes Stevie Me. Adam hauled off.

Liverpool 2-1 Barcodes, Bellamy freekick.

Master Splinter
30-12-2011, 09:13 PM
Krul :doh:.

And Simpson :doh: :doh:.

Rors
30-12-2011, 09:14 PM
Carroll was nowhere near it, as could easily be seen in live action, so no dice Tyler.

A defender right in front of the keeper for a 20yard freekick. Great to have them back :bow:

Syn
30-12-2011, 09:14 PM
It's been pointed out to me that the Carroll hat-trick bet was probably the stupidest waste of money in history - which means it's worse than the £35m that Liverpool spent on Carroll.

Syn :haha: :haha:

FML.

McNamara That Ghost...
30-12-2011, 09:16 PM
Skrtel clears off the line to deny Ba! That was brilliantly cleared.

Master Splinter
30-12-2011, 09:16 PM
Squirtle :bow: what a clearance!

Brilliant from Ba too.

GP
30-12-2011, 09:16 PM
I seem to remember some white-suited buffoon getting all bent out of shape cos Wenger didn't buy Carroll.

Anyone remember who that was?

I think it's still mathematically possible for them to get relegated. :popcorn:

Tiote is almost as brainless as Diaby.

McNamara That Ghost...
30-12-2011, 09:30 PM
Stitches inserted in Bellamy's eye? I'm guessing, well, I am hoping Geoff Shreeves means his eyelid or something.

Sammy Ameobi on for Obama.

Does Syn still hold the belief that The Ponytail will evolve into The New Drogba?

I do. He's still young and can turn it around if he keeps his head straight.

Still a fan tbh. Sign him up, Arsene.

edit: Also, he had a decent game today. Deserved a goal and very nearly got it.

Bellamy got 2 goals and Gerrard was motm?

I dont think he even started the match. Didnt pay much attention to this game.

That decision still cracks me up. Surprised the grass didn't get a booking tbf.

Dennis Bendtner
31-12-2011, 12:46 PM
I don't think Man Utd are playing with any CMs. Unless Jones and Carrick play there, in which case there are no CBs.

That's quite cool. Thinly veiled lulz at Steve Kean.

McNamara That Ghost...

Too soon. Blackburn needed that at 90+3 when the score was still 0-0. Now they have made manu angry. Holding out for 70+ minutes at OT will not happen, with manu players diving around the box getting pelanties.

Blackeye holding out at all, in any circumstance is always going to be a tough task at Old Trafford. Having said that, it has been a while since Man Utd had a really stupid result at home in the league.

Given the last game citeh played, given it is away, given Sunderland have just started a new manager with players keen to impress, it is by no means impossible. Hopefully the citeh players will have the seeds of doubt in their minds, while Sunderland, being written off by the pundits will have a nothing-to-lose mentality.
