Not welbeck

 

[Purdy]

Could the commentator suck the ball into the Net anymore for Liverpool if they tried FML embarrassing

Don't talk ****e, you could hear his zipper when rooney took a shot straight at mignolet

 

[Somnambulist]

No replays any more, that right? I'd say bring on the big guns and try and win the game now but we don't have much on the bench... of anything.

Bore off

 

[shipinabottle]

Mark Clattenberg is my least favourite ref every decision he makes is questionable, right down to his haircut and facial treatments.

 

[Purdy]

Bore off

See you next time you're winning a big game

 

[Purdy]

Pathetic we lost to that

 

[Loki]

See you next time you're winning a big game

Any idea why Sturridge or Gerrard didn't start the match or play any part ?? Sure they was on the team sheet

Must be my eyesight

 

[eggyoke]

Toure has shown more desire, fight and offensive ability than both Sturidge and Gerrard today.

 

[Andybtsn]

Put the handbags away girls

 

[Robbo]

That'll do nicely, it wasn't a great performance but it was promising in places.

To win against a near full strength Liverpool team having made 8 changes made it even better.

 

[Shamikebab]

Completely different Liverpool to the league game. A win we needed and a so-so performance. Why Giggs wasn't taken off I'll never know, we needed fresh legs in that last 20.

Does anyone know what Zaha has done to Moyes? 15m signing, great preseason then he's just been shunned completely, not even a sub appearance, really odd

 

[NeedAUsername]

We weren't great but our defence was much better than it was against City's.

We still need 2 CM's but our attacking options look good, Kagawa in centre is a beast.

 

[Bucket]

That'll do.

Given Giggs started in the middle and I don't recall us winning or even putting in any sort of performance that resembles a team of 11 professional footballers I'm quite pleasantly surprised.

In terms of the personnel, Kagawa had a terribly poor first half but improved in the second. Not sure how him and Rooney in the same side is really going to go to be honest, they want to occupy the same space a lot of the time.

Nani should be replacing Young from now on at least, that's a certainty though. Positive to see Rafael back too and glad Chico got a goal.

 

[awaybreaktoday]

Nani should be playing at all times.....

 

[Robbo]

I thought Giggs did pretty well in places, to be fair to him.

I think Zaha will probably start the next game.

 

[Somnambulist]

Akpom on for Eisfeld... lol.

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Time to address the problem that is Gerrard. Can't play further forward because he hasn't got the legs and doesn't do enough to help Lucas or the defence.

Two garbage teams playing garbage football. Neither have got a hope in hell of winning anything this season.

 

[Shamikebab]

No idea why the Buttner one wasn't a pen, he turned and got completely cleaned out by the Liverpool player

I loved the Liverpool player down the right towards the end feigning injury until Rooney came near him with the ball when he suddenly sprung up and made a very fast recovery

 

[drunkenmaster]

Wenger didn't look at all pleased when we scored..... was quite odd, wonder if he just wants us to lose or was unhappy two players he seems to not want involved in the first team were involved.

Oh, Bendtner assist by the way and Eisfeld with nicely taken goal, looking pretty tired at this point 80 mins in, no changes(unless some happened in the last couple mins I missed) for a mostly not match fit team. Akpom and even Park(lol) on the bench, but Wenger really hasn't seemingly tried to make changes to win the game. Taking off Eisfeld just now for Akpom in the 82minute.
