How old you? Nine?

So lets bring this thread back to life shall we.

Arsenal gon' Arsenal. Boruc being a dickhead was absolutely hilarious, Giroud keeps on plugging away, 7 from 12 in the league now.

Merseyside derby was awesome, could have been a lot higher scoring too.

Tottenham showing their title credentials

United too

Spurs were so unbelievably bad today . City were good but not even that great. FFS they had 3 shots on target in the 2nd half and scored all 3. Crazy

As for Boruc that was just so LOLworthy. Outstanding stuff really.

 

[Keith]

Pundits like that Spurs arse kisser Chris Waddle must feel like a prat now.

I always thought that they over spent and lacked balance. Their best hope for glory this season is a cup.

 

[Dale]

I wouldn't say they lack balance, they just don't seem to have that Bale like player who can turn the game on it's head.

Really thought Soldado would be great in the Prem, he was excellent at Valencia.

Turns out they spent £26m on a penalty taker. Don't understand why Defoe doesn't get more of a look in there.

 

[EffectsofRaven]

'cause he's British or isn't that flashy... Plus as MotD pointed out Spurs never get the ball into the damn box.

Sad looking at Man City not having a single Englishmen in the starting lining up, very disappointing and then wanting Victor Valdes to replace Hart is the funniest shit I've read all year along.

 

[CGS]

In terms of player power Spurs still have one of the best squads going.....problem is they don't really know how to exploit that power as a team yet and it may even take another year or so to figure that out. Last year they had Bale to really control the action, this year they don't and now have to rely on a team effort which they just can't see to muster up.

Very Happy with Villa's point last night epscially after the first half. West Brom maybe should have been out of sight by half time, but the subs came at the right time and turned the game, it was a good fight back. We now have a decent run of games starting with Sunderland at the weekend and have some key players back from injury. I do wish Bentake would learn to stay onside though..

 

[Prodigy]

Arsenal are going to win the League.

 

[The Cork]

Ozil was awesome today, cheeky passes all over the place.

Giroud was dire. Not gonna dog on the guy too hard as he bailed us out against Soton.

Enjoying the run so far.

 

[Prodigy]

Don't know how we managed to beat Arsenal to be honest.

Reckon we might lose to spuds as well.

 

[The Cork]

Spurs have 1 point and no goals in November, and just conceded 6 in Manchester last week.

Plus they struggled against a second division Norweigian side midweek. Dunno why you'd be worried about them at all, Rooney should get business done easy.

 

[Prodigy]

Still not convinced by our performances in the league though atm. Should have capitalised on on the scouse teams drawing last week, but instead drew..

We were absolutely amazing today, annihilated Stoke with a few second choice players out, loving Martinez's style so far
