Its just Davie being Davie......

I just find every time I watch Arsenal/United/Chelsea play Bolton, Jussi is the guy that makes it a 2-0 game instead of a 7-0 thrashing. His shot stopping is immense, he doesn't struggle with crosses and he seems to have a good rapport with Cahill in front of him.

Shit finishing stops it being a thrashing that Bolton deserve, he can't save a penalty hit straight at him. Given had a shit defence at Newcastle and still has a bad defence at Man City.

Your shitty list is wrong, Craig Gordon is fucking worse and was more expensive than Almunia.

Just as excited as I was when Toni returned to Italy!

Chamakh is fucking hopeless. From 2004/05 to the end of 2008/09 he scored 39 in 157.



Luca Toni is a clinical goalscorer. From 2004/05 to the end of 2008/09 he scored 106 in 158.



Yes Luca Toni rarely played this season because of a personal problem with Louis Van Gaal who has a history of being a cock. That is why a return to see Toni playing (before his injury) was good news.

Its just Davie being Davie......

This thread is about football. Not about what you think about me. Contribute something useful for a change.

15. Myhill (been really impressed by him of late)

I was impressed with Blackburn's goal. I didn't think it was physically possible to be retarded enough to concede from that angle.

How about Almunia's save from Babel? Looked like Tier 100 goalkeeping to me.

Fucking racist.

Be a shame if he misses the World Cup, I think he's England's best player.

Newcaslte luckily got a draw with Swansea today. Guthrie and Nolan are playing fucking terrible right now

1 shot on target - 1 goal for us compared to Swansea's double figure attempts

Of course you love it. It's unnecessarily extending the season of the best league in the world ever.

Lets just let teams carry on playing, definitely a good idea. Not like there are international tournaments in the summers, nor are the players tired at all after a 40 game season.

Is having a top 4 not good enough? The teams in 5th, 6th, 7th had a 38 game chance to get there - same as everyone else.



Jesus Christ ike, how fucking retarded are you?

[davie]

Hey everyone how about relegation place playoffs? :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

How about a playoff for 1st place? :D

How about a playoff for 9th? and 14th? :D

Premier League pondering fourth place Champions League play-off - Barclays Premier League - ESPN Soccernet

Only unfortunate thing is that the idea actually existed.

Im as retarded as the 16 Prem owners who are in favor of it.

[Archer]

I hate it

A 38 game season is more than enough to sort out positions. Asking them to play more games just so TV can cash in on a playoff game is beyond retarded. It's not like the NFL where everybody works on different schedules ... the only time this should even be considered is when two teams are tied on points.
