Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [7th - 11th February 2015]

[Purdy]

Lukaku well off there

 

[Nate75]

face palm..

Could have scored earlier as well :/

 

[Robbo]

Oh dear, great ball in though.

 

[Fulax]

From BBC Sport:

Breaking managerial news from Aston Villa - Paul Lambert has been sacked at Aston Villa

 

[Andybtsn]

Not watching the Chelsea game but seen Besic has been booked already, he seems just a player that goes in hard? I can't see him last the game

Yep. He was lucky to have gone so long before getting a booking in the Derby at the weekend.

 

[NeedAUsername]

Why can't United play with two mf's? no top 4 and sack him.

 

[Purdy]

Yep. He was lucky to have gone so long before getting a booking in the Derby at the weekend.

Looks like a **** too, his debut was the best thing ever

 

[Robbo]

Confidence has gone now, Evans doing his headless chicken impression (as usual).

 

[twist3d0n3]

WTF are we doing?!

 

[Nate75]

WTF are we doing?!

Imploding.

Burnley are feeding off the fear!

 

[Jimbeam3678]

Sounds like I should switch over to the Man U game

 

[twist3d0n3]

3 subs now pls LVG... rooney falcao and rvp off, fellaini, herrera and wilson on pls

rooney really needs to be benched, he can't even make a ****ing 5m pass...

Not sure you're allowed to make 4 subs

We've only got 2 subs left, even less likely we see someone like Herrera now.

Rooney, Januzaj and the strikers all invisible so far.

 

[Jimbeam3678]

Is it a decent game?

 

[Robbo]

Is it a decent game?

Not especially.

HA! forgot about that

Found this earlier, really perplexing why herrera isn't playing considering...

Not especially.

Nope, I'm back on FM now. Bored

late scrappy goal to give us 3 points if we're lucky.

 

[Robbo]

We need to get Herrera on for RvP, and stick Rooney up front. Would be a big improvement I think.

Rooney looks beyond hopeless doing whatever he's meant to be doing now.
