Greenlizard0 Boxing Day Football Thread ** spoilers ** [26 - 27th December 2011]

[Azza]

MUFC team: Lindegaard; Valencia, Carrick, Evans, Evra; Park, Gibson, Giggs, Nani; Berbatov, Hernandez

And I thought we were playing a ****ing weird team. Suppose we do have 6 defenders starting thoughm and Man U only 2. That's if you class Evans as a defender.

 

[Mark1989]

Carroll starting with Suarez, Nice of them to try it again BUT Carroll slows play down allot so hopefully it wont cause too much of an issue today as its only Blackburn

 

[Azza]

Dempsey!!!!

 

[syke]

Nicely worked goal, 1-1 Dempsey.

 

[Somnambulist]

1-1, Senderos involved in the build up lol.

 

[BaZ87]

Dempsey

1-1

 

[SideWinder]

Good play by Senderos and of course Ruiz.

 

[Gackt]

Pfft onside.

 

[BaZ87]

Pfft onside.

He missed anyway

 

[SideWinder]

BREAKING TEAM NEWS: Michael Carrick starts in defence for Manchester United in place of the injured Phil Jones. Wayne Rooney and Danny Welbeck are rested as Javier Hernandez and Dimitar Berbatov start up front. Mario Balotelli starts for leaders Manchester City at West Brom.

 

[Gackt]

Foul on Torres, blatent.

 

[syke]

^ he didn't get the ball, but I don't think he even got the player - Torres just fell over.

What a great couple of saves by Stockdale there.

 

[Swordfish]

What a miss by Malouda

 

[BaZ87]

Nearly an incredibly run by Ruiz there.

 

[Azza]

Carroll starts for Liverpool.

 

[joxang]

Drogba to save the day.

 

[Swordfish]

Far better game this half.

 

[SideWinder]

Torres and Drogba on at the same time...Surazezez/Carroll on at the same time, hmm.

 

[syke]

The more this Frei plays the better he looks - really good to see Fulham of all teams to have such young players good enough to play.

 

[Swordfish]

I can see Fulham nicking this.
