Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [1st - 2nd September 2012]

De Gea dropped for making one mistake. Will do his confidence a world of good

Makes no sense, DDG has been brilliant since about February makes one mistake and is dropped :o

Fergie said he'd be back in the team in a couple of weeks so who knows if that's the next game (after the international break) or beyond (i.e. the League cup)

I wouldn't mind but it wasn't even a mistake by De Gea last week, he was fouled and Vidic hardly covered himself in glory either :mad:
 
Did neutrals find that game enjoyable to watch? (Excluding laughing at Liverpool's mistakes.)


I enjoy every game:)

Liverpool weren't that bad, but Arsenal were pretty comfortable tbh. At no point did I expect Liverpool to score really.

I like Joe Allen, looks like a very good player. Also I think Shelvey has looked pretty good when I have seen him this year as well(never thought I would be saying that!). Got a better impression of Sterling as well, he will be a very good player. As has been said countless times though, they desperately need a striker. Without a good golascorer I can't see them ahead of Everton/Newcastle(won't comment on Spurs just yet).

As for Arsenal, Diaby and Arteta looked good in the middle. Along with Carzola that could be a very effective midfiled this season. And they still have Wilshere to come back. Might be early days, but I am not sure about Giroud.
 
Have Drogba and Anelka officially left thon club they were at? Desperately could do with them both.
Anelka would suit the team but he'd want astronomical wages and at this stage in his career would he have the desire to work for a living or would he prefer to sit back and relax for the money?
 
Our confirmed starting XI and subs:

------------Lindegaard------------
Rafael---Vidic---Ferdinand---Evra
--------------Carrick--------------
-------Cleverley--Kagawa-------
Valencia-------RVP-------Welbeck

Subs: De Gea, Evans, Giggs, Scholes, Powell, Nani, Hernandez

Like the defence, like the midfield but not happy about the GK situation or no Nani on the left :(

I hope Powell get a run out, it will be interesting to see what he can do at this level.
