Boxing Day Footie *spoilers be inside*

I think we will do ok without Ashley Young, especially as this season he hasnt lit the blue touch paper like Milner has...

Looking forward to Carew/Agbon against the solid 'pool defence :D

Liverpools 11 is a lot stronger than I hoped though...

ps3ud0 :cool:
 
Gotta love Andy Gray at a Liverpool match.

I think he'd be down there on the pitch humping Torres' leg given half the chance. :/
 
Well okay first half nothing amazing, Gerrard attempt has def been the best for us, Benayoun does seem to be playing allot more centrally than usual. Think we need mroe preasure from lucas and aquaman in the second half
 
0-0 HT

**** game. Hope Rafa brings on Ngog soon. Torres has been abysmal yet again and doesn't look like he's got the legs to do any running.

Kuyt's been Villas best player by a mile. Would be nice if he passed the ball forward or to one of our players.

Played reasonably well first half. Controlled the game as of the 5th minute and with a better final ball we could have been in countless times. Only real concern is the amount of set-plays we're given away and even then, other than the Downing chance, we've looked reasonably comfortable there.

Not sure what's happened to Benayoun since his injury. He was flying before the Birmingham game but has looked **** since then.

Not surprised, lost count of the amount of them we've had turned down so far this season.

He's not fit. The horse whisperer should be taken around the back of her stables and shot.

Johnson's been a shadow of the player he was before he got injured, Aurelio isn't much better and we've barely seen 5 minutes of Riera. Using horse placenta has failed harder than our medical team.
 
Inuries just seem to get worse atm its like we have arsenal prone injury syndrome. According to Rafa Aquilani came of early in last game to a knock on his knee so im half expecting him to be injured again soon ;(
 
We're looking fairly comfortable against Villa at the minute. I can't help but feel we're extremely fragile at the moment though. A goal up and we'll soar with confidence and a goal down, we'll buckle and the score could be anything.

Kuyt has killed so many of our attacks this season it's shocking - he's so lethargic on the ball, it undoes a lot of the quick tempo stuff that Torres, Gerrard and Aquilani have going on.
