Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [9th - 15th December 2016]

[The Running Man]

ImAgine we had a winger with pace who could dribble and cross the ball..

 

[Cosimo]

Get in, Fabregas, 0-1.

 

[doodah]

Hazard injured? Few more goals from Eriksen please (FF) .

 

[Shamikebab]

slick passing but 0 penetration and no shots really.

 

[Fulax]

Playing 4-4-2 with zero pace in midfield or out wide doesn't look like the best idea Pardew has ever had.

 

[ThestigGT999]

cabaye diving

 

[doodah]

That's a stat; Mark Hughes is the 5th person to play 400 league matches and manage 400 matches. Who are the other 4......?

 

[Mark1989]

Mane and Origi both unlucky there! could have been 2

 

[Shamikebab]

Rooney has just been woeful, literally standing around making up the numbers tonight.

 

[mmj_uk]

Rooney with the first touch of a trampoline and Hoddle tries to say it was a ball to Zlatan.

 

[Shamikebab]

and Rooney gives it away again. I love it when we make things hard for ourselves

 

[The Running Man]

No mention of Pogba passing..

 

[Calpol]

Can I just express how much a loathe Robbie Savage. Never got over being rejected by Fergie. The bloke is a complete <insert expletive>

 

[Fulax]

I genuinely miss Michael Owen. Savage, Hoddle, and Hargreaves are all unbearable.

 

[Shamikebab]

Great chance for Rooney. Wonderful pass by Pogba.

 

[The Running Man]

Rojo just awful. He's so rash and an utter liability.


Look what a bit of pace and trickery can do to a defence. We have no players with either lol.

Spoiler

A very punchable face

 

[Shamikebab]

Zaha is ripping us to pieces, had to happen.

 

[Robbo]

Rojo is mental.

 

[drunkenmaster]

Still one of my favourite moments ever in league history is the ref elbowing Savage.... which I want to believe was on purpose.

Jesus christ, Rojo should have got a straight red last week, should have done something about him after the game, just done it again. He is absolutely going to break someone's leg and maybe end someone's career and it will be as much the ref's fault for refusing to give him what is the most obvious red cards of the season tbh.

There was a time that if you ever even looked like it was two footed you got a red even when sometimes it wasn't as bad as it looked. These are clear as day obvious reds and by not red carding they are just telling him it's fine.
