Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [14th - 17th Jan 2012]

You forgot Song as well, but I still think Dyer's 'dead hedgehog on head' takes the award.

Anyway, HT 1-1, need to be more patient with the ball, painfully obvious Djourou can't play as a right back and Miquel isn't suited to left-back either, but it's not like we have any choice atm.We've been more threatening in the final 1/3rd than them, and looking at the replays, that penalty was very debatable!
 
Looks like chelsea are certain for 4th place this season as neither arsenal or liverpool can even string together a run of 2 decent games. Thank the gods :D

Fair play, can't argue with that. Miquel's looked very uncomfortable - understandably, given he's squillionth-choice - and the penalty was generous in retrospect. You've also pressed the central midfield quite well, as I've not seen our midfield trio look as hurried and mistake-prone as in any other game this season, with perhaps the exception of the Newcastle game.

But it's encouraging for us, even though it's the same old story: all the possession but with scant chances. Let's hope we can coax another penalty from the ref in the second half ;)
 
Er... you do remember we were hovering above the relegation zone after the worst start ever and have climbed steadily up for a couple of months? The manic end/start of year hasn't been great but has any other team cruised through it?
