There is a possibility arsenals back 4 could become frances back 4 this season

Only needs silvestre to get back in the international frame

Sounds like WH are getting a lot more possession at the moment (about 20% improvement)

personally think Utd need a 3rd to be safe (esp after the Everton showing)

edit - Hull got to half time without conceding a 2nd!!

They had one move in our half, we're still heavily on top of possession.

Nothing to be proud of.

Gomez strikes again! What is it with Sours and dodgy keepers?

(That's not a good thing). I'd rather none of our team were internationals

Fair enough - BBC's possession has Utd gone from about 56% to 41% lol

edit - out of interest are Pompey playing out of their skin or are Liverpool being wasteful?

Liverpool game's not great. Portsmouth look absolutely hopeless in defence, midfield and attack and are obviously playing for a draw.

Don't know why we're only playing one in attack because Portsmouth are here for the taking.

one of those games huh - thanks for the info

Don't think Keane is fully fit, he had to play with a pain killing injection vs Cheslea. Would've like to have seen either Riera or Benayoun play instead of Lucas (he's not done too bad tbf to him) though.

BaZ87 · 29 Oct 2008 at 20:57

LOL @ Redknapp

I think he's going to start crying soon

FrankJH · 29 Oct 2008 at 21:00

Anelka for 2-0

Raymond Lin · 29 Oct 2008 at 21:01

Lampard's goal was a beauty. Bently's was better though and Berbatov's touch and turn is awesome, Cantona would've been proud to have done that.

CliffyG · 29 Oct 2008 at 21:02

But gutted it's only 1-1, Bentley goal was a bit out of the blue and we've been all over them apart from that. Ah well a whole half to go yet, there's more goals in this game.

SoliD · 29 Oct 2008 at 21:03

Redknapp getting a bit heated at half time, good half from spurs keeping the pressure on but will be tough to keep it to 1-1 will be tired by 80mins thats for sure.

I mean seriously that's three matches where teams have scored goal of the month/season contenders against us. What the hell?

Having just seen the goal Id suggest you get a better keeper. It was a fine strike but he should have done a lot better.

I agree. It's going to be a good second half. COME ON ARSENAL!!!!!

As said above I'm quiet annoyed that this is the third time this season we've had goal of the month/season contenders scored against us. I guess thinking about it positively would be saying that it'd be worse if e.g. the other top three teams scored those goals. Much harder to come back then.
