Re: Football Season 2011/12
we're not extremely bad at Everton although it is a fixture inwhich two teams are picking up form late on. im optimistic i think we can go there and get all 3 points.
tomorrows derby will be interesting

Re: Football Season 2011/12
Newcastle are not happy with RVP mentioning the time wasting after the goal. Some tried to confront him in the tunnel and Tiote has tweeted that 'RVP is joke'. Lolz.

Re: Football Season 2011/12
Good game few niggles,
Thought Arsenal were full of sportsmanship.. Until they started taking corners yards outside of the actual spot and nudging the ball yards forward from a free kick when the referee's back is turned.
Apart from that I enjoyed the game.

Re: Football Season 2011/12
Well that was fun last night.
Three teams, two Champions League spots. I am not convinced we'll get it, it would require some real poor results from the other two teams. I see Chelsea kicking in like they always do and we being left fighting Spurs who have a much easier run in and are still a point ahead. We might have given ourselves a little too much to do in the end.
Still I am pleased with the fight in this team all of a sudden. Last night was the fourth consecutive Premier League game in which we came from behind to win, a record apparently. Three of those four wins came from very late goals, Henry against Sunderland, RVP against Liverpool and Vermaelen against Newcastle last night. Wenger is often mocked for his insistence that this team has great 'metal strength' but we are seeing it at the moment. I don't know what did it, they seemed to have finally snapped at 2 - 0 down against Spurs and haven't let up since.
Nice full week until the game against Everton, going out of the FA Cup and Champions League will have advantages in this run in.

To be fair to Arsenal though, most teams do that kind of thing. What annoys me, even when it is my own team doing it, is taking half the pitch when taking a throw in. It really annoys me, and another one is the stop start stop start of some penalty takers. That should be banned, as it is really unfair on the goalie trying to save it.

So what happened, they instantly found success. And when he stopped spending stupid money on players, the success dried up.
So yes, Chelsea tried to buy instant success in exactly the same way Man City are trying to do now

I don't think he has stopped spending just yet

He has stopped on the scale of when he took over. As soon as he started running Chelsea like a business, the rot set in.
