Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [24 - 26th August 2013]

[The Running Man]

Owen is a bad commentator he just gets lost half way through a sentence and trails off .. on live tv...

 

[Purdy]

yeh I get the gist, just.

What a horrible noise though!

No worse than Neville to be honest. Owen is easily the worst though, suicide inducing

What do people reckon for the Villa - Pool game later? I reckon Villa should just edge it. They've played well the last two games , bad luck against Chelsea.

I've got a bet down for Villa to win but I have Coutinho in my Fantasy team. Oh the heart bleeds

Villa, we don't handle pace or big players well and we will probably create 400 chances and score only once

Reckon Villa could pull off a shock defeat especially with Benteke scoring goals for fun...Arsenal should really have a look at him, offer £30mill to Villa and see what they say.

2nd half to begin, come on Arsenal lets try and nail this game shut and defend our lead

Fulham will probably come out all guns firing, good for us as we can hopefully catch them out on the counter attack.

He just seems so not interested and bored.

Really looking forward to the Villa game should be a cracker

No worse than Neville? This isn't a Man U v Liverpool thing?

Carra's voice is one of the worst I have heard on any man lol.


Anyways, only pundits - on with the game

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

No idea what Mark Halsey is doing there, though. Agreeing with every refereeing decision does not make for compelling commentary.

He's a muppet. In our game against Stoke last week N'Zonzi fouled one of our players and the ref booked him a few minutes later, after allowing play to continue, when Lucas tripped someone and play was stopped. Halsey immediately assumed it was for Lucas and said it was a definite yellow

 

[Yas786]

Oh come on Jenks stop giving away stupid free kicks :/

 

[Yas786]

Ramsey being a monster in the midfield, glad to see him back to his best .

I find the Mancunian accent rather unpleasant myself

 

[Huggie86]

Maybe Wenger will take this win as another reason not to dip into the transfer market

 

[mmj_uk]

What is the point in having Mark Halsey in BT commentary? all he ever does is justify the decisions of referees.

/edit: just noticed it's already been brought up. I'm not the only one who's noticed then.

Considering he was a crap referee as well I don't see the point either

I hope not, we need some players to add some depth to our squad as we are pretty thin.

Bent coming on for Duff.

 

[Huggie86]

Oh FFS cmon Walcott need them points!!

 

[Nate75]

not a Take That fan then?




anyways, on with the game......

He's already said several times now they need players in because the squad is too small. It's going to be a question of whether the players are any good though.

 

[Huggie86]

Yeah it's not a question of when he'll get someone in but what kinda player he'll dream up and bring in. Deadline day will be interesting!

 

[Nate75]

cracking goal

Indeed and i think they need to be if we really want to win trophies and challenge for the PL. But im really hoping this win doesnt mean Wenger takes his eyes off the ball so to speak.
