Defoe is lethal when he's in this form

FrankJH · 19 Aug 2009 at 20:34

Utd Strikers dont like taking penalties this season it seems (Community Shield)

Thats the last 5 I think where a striker hasnt taken it :confused:

Shamikebab · 19 Aug 2009 at 20:34

crap so far, got nothing out wide, we need to bring a winger on. We look so short of ideas up front without Berbatov.

lemonkettaz · 19 Aug 2009 at 20:34

Looks like Owen has some serious catching up to do against Defoe

Jono8 · 19 Aug 2009 at 20:34

United you muppets. What are you doing?

vanandjuanunited · 19 Aug 2009 at 20:35

Really poor first half
Anderson needs to come off and Valencia on

ScottehBotteh · 19 Aug 2009 at 20:35

3-1 spurs

Defoe again

Liverpool v Stoke appears to be a non contact game.

FrankJH · 19 Aug 2009 at 20:37

Slight hope is that its the identical score that Chelsea had 24 hours previously at half time

Anderson needs to join a mid table team

Thats not where its being lost, there is no supply.
Burnley are just waltzing by Park and Giggs, the defense is all over the place and the goal keeper some how manages to neither come OR stay for crosses.

Its a shambles, and it shows how weak the side is.

Burnley are a busy. half decent passing side, but thats all they are, and they are running United ragged.

lol what is it with liverpool players and head injurys so far this season? by the next game they'll look like a boxing team

Pigeon_Killer · 19 Aug 2009 at 20:39

Shawcross just nailed Torres

DOOOOOOOOOOOM!

However Park has been dog**** and Anderson is not a winger.

Wasnt Benitez saying something about Torres should stop argueing with defenders?

(I hope it isnt serious)

I'm liking the new Live Football page on bbc website, auto-updating scores, league table as it stands etc. Also when you view a specific match it always explicitly tells you who provided the assist which is good for FF.

Why the **** did Carrick take our penalty?

He had probably picked himself in his fantasy league team

Well with Giggs missing one at wembly I guess he stood down.

I'd have thought Rooney would have took it.

Who is your first choice PK taker with Ronaldo gone?

At least he had the balls to stand up.
