We Go Again! The 2014/15 Premier League Thread

[Liam]

First topic message reminder :

such a shame Strootman got injured before the world cup. Think he'd be at the club otherwise. He should have been here last summer along with thiago but we ballsed it up and ended up with fellaini.

[Soldier_Of_Fortune]

Sterling's great but needs to do something about that hair.  It's guggit.

It's the hair Cotton, feathered and lethal (sometimes)

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

I can't believe people think Townsend is good

[Dolphin Ziggler]

Thought Mario showed how he'll work in this team, I was impressed

[Ent]

Surely sandro and paulinho are better than what spurs have on the pitch?

[NickisBHAFC]

Phil Dowd another rubbish ref. Clear penalty. If that meant something I would be livid if I was Adebayor.

[Hulking_up]

The Liverpool hate on this forum is brilliant. 3 points bitches!

Henderson was great today. Allen was pretty good too.
Soft pen and i don't like seeing those given but everyone knows you can't put your hands on a player when he's running past you.

3 games against Spurs. 12 - 0.

[Crimey]

Balotelli certainly worked harder for the team than I expected, need a bit more sharpness, which will come with games.

My main problem is, and there were hints of it in this game, is that when things aren't going his way he has a tendency of sulking, compared to Suarez who would then just try harder. I want to see Balotelli, even when not getting things done the way he would want to, continuing to put a shift in rather than sulking as it can then end up being like ten men on the pitch.

[Crimey]

Great win after Monday's game. 3-0 away from home at a Spurs on a high is a very good result.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Any word spoken against Liverpool = "Liverpool hate" apparently

[NickisBHAFC]

Liverpool were outstanding today, no one can deny that!

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

I do enjoy watching Henderson and Sterling play a lot, if only England could use them like thay

[Dolphin Ziggler]

Good to see Tottenham brought down to earth. They were not good against us and then spanked a very poor QPR.

[westisbest]

Very pleased with our start going into the international break.

Teams we've played are the ones we need to be taking points off.

Needed it to, as we have a tough September.

[The Special Juan]

Any word spoken against Liverpool = "Liverpool hate" apparently

Absolutely. It's almost as if Liverpool fans feel they are victims...

[kingraf]

Arsenal
Szczesny, Debuchy, Mertesacker,
Koscielny, Monreal, Flamini, Ramsey,
Cazorla, Ozil, Alexis, Sanogo

subs
Martinez, Chambers,
Rosicky, Campbell, Wilshere, Oxlade-
Chamberlain, Podolski

Leicester
Schmeichel, De Laet, Morgan, Moore,
Konchesky, Mahrez, King, Hammond,
Schlupp, Nugent, Ulloa

subs

Hamer, Drinkwater, Vardy,
Albrighton, Cambiasso, Wasilewski, Wood

[Crimey]

I think Henderson is Liverpool's most important player, not the best but certainly the most important, think he's irreplaceable by anybody else in the squad which I'm not sure any other player can say they are. 

Do think England should consider playing the diamond with Sturridge, Rooney, then Sterling in the ten behind them. The quality of wide players is pretty poor right now for England and that would probably get the best out of the players in the squad as well as getting Sterling and Henderson playing as well as they do at club level. Just need to find somebody to play in the holding role.

[Fernando]

Something odd is going down. The Arsenal owner has turned up for todays game. I think ive seen him about 4 times in the last few years at our games so very odd...

[Crimey]

At least Wilshere has been dropped.

[kingraf]

Maybe he has free time?

[kingraf]

KR about to print some money with a bet on Ramsey to score.

[Fernando]

Maybe he has free time?

I doubt it he owns a lot of sports teams and rarely ever turns up unless something is going down

[Crimey]

KR about to print some money with a bet on Ramsey to score.

Which celebrity to die then?

[Crimey]

On Raheem Sterling: "He was exceptional today. But I had to laugh when he almost scored the fourth. He dribbled through the Spurs defence like Ricky Villa, but his finish was more like Ricky Gervais."

I made no secret of my dislike for Rodgers, but he is definitely winning me round. A big part of that is he's become much better in the media, has stopped saying the bizarre Brent-isms.

[kingraf]

Isn't B-list celebrity/plastic Joan Rivers in a bad way? Ramsey to finish her off

[Dolphin Ziggler]

Sanogo is a truly horrendous player

[NickisBHAFC]

Laughable defending by Leicester there.

[kingraf]

Would have been a beautiful if Sanogo didn't act like a cow on ice

[NickisBHAFC]

Ulloaaaaaaaaaaa! I love that man so much!

[Dolphin Ziggler]

Awful defending by Koscielny

[Ent]

Where have all the defenders gone.

[Soldier_Of_Fortune]

Ulloa has now scored more Prem goals then RvW

[NickisBHAFC]

Awful defending by Koscielny

not much he could of done Tbf, when you put in a class cross and Ulloa is around, it's hitting the back of the net.

[kingraf]

This might be the.most aesthetically pleasing Arsenal side of them all. Pity about the lack of penetration

[Dolphin Ziggler]

Awful defending by Koscielny

not much he could of done Tbf, when you put in a class cross and Ulloa is around, it's hitting the back of the net.

No, Nick, no. Awful defending, no positioning, no awareness, no command.

[NickisBHAFC]

So basically he could walk into the West Ham team

[kingraf]

Alexis hasn't been the same since he started wearing longer (read: regular) shorts

[NickisBHAFC]

Good first half. Very even game.

[mystiroakey]

Pretty sure he will bring Wilshire on who can get the ball from the back to the front quicker.

Arsenal not playing well at all.

[freemo]

been a poor half from arsenal...not helped by the fact that if they get it into the box, then Sanogo defo won't finish it!

[NickisBHAFC]

So unlucky by Ulloa did superbly well until the finish!

[kingraf]

did Podolski sleep with Wenger's niece or something? How on earth can he be behind Sanogo in the pecking order?

[Ent]

Leicester look done.
Only a matter of time here.

[hampo17]

did Podolski sleep with Wenger's niece or something? How on earth can he be behind Sanogo in the pecking order?

Wenger doesn't see him as a striker.

“He is not a real centre-forward,” said Wenger. “He is a striker on the flank or behind the striker, but he is not the target man. He has a role to play, but he likes to come to the ball, he is not the guy who likes to go behind. I see Sanogo and Sanchez as players who are really good at going behind, not Podolski.”

[J.Benson II]

Podolski isn't very good as a CF. He's played there a few times and struggled. He's best on the wing and cutting in. Sanogo though is barely a Championship player.

I find Wenger a real enigma. I honestly have no idea how that man's brain operates anymore. And I don't mean this in a good way.

[kingraf]

Look, it's all good and well when you have The and Olivier, but when you're down to Sanogo...

[freemo]

Sanchez also isn't a centre forward, he's a better winger, but Sanogo is Frak awful!!

[Ent]

Sanogo is at least entertaining.

[Ent]

Looked like szczeney could have gone there.

[kingraf]

Points lost, but Arsene won't be too upset. Still early days, and at least he now knows what he has to about Sanogo

[Ent]

Fair play to Leicester, I thought they looked knackered but were comfortable in the end.

Arsenal, well - they've been pretty poor in all 3 games.

Defensively the constantly struggled with just bog standard basic attacking play and they didn't create much.

Sanogo, the less said the better.
