He really likes the sound of his own drawl, doesn't he.

I think the entire forum an agree that VDV would be the best partner for Torres.

Warnock pulls it back to 2-2, and gets a deserved goal, motm for warnock for me

2-1 to Fulham now, danny murphy penno for the first, which was perfectly taken (does he ever miss?) Also warnock's delivery for blackburn has been absolutely top class, shame to see him at blackburn when he is playing like that.

Great performance, bit off from momo at the start but even he played a blinder towards the end; we should have scored a lot more, fernando forgot his shooting boots though ... to be fair, the geordies were shocking too - Big Sam for England was the cry at the end

It is rather depressing to see a player pass the ball, then just sit there taking a breather as all the space is closed down, rather than moving into the next position, and this after 5 minutes - are we rotating players mid-game? have to recover some energy from the pass? I think something is wrong in training, in how we approach it, because the basics just aren't there. I should also change my sig to syn: Arsenal.

Fantastic news, now we can concentrate on the league, Number 19 here we come.

Jens Lehmann said it on his behalf.

I thought every game was a cup final?

We were the best team, and got robbed by Rob the F***ing Robber Styles; if he's not reffing in the championship next week something is wrong.

Any london orientated sorts know a good london pub showing the game? preferably somewhere where some pool lads will be congregating. Cheers. billz

And we actually get day-time pics, pretty rare for a new stadium, where most aim to dress mutton as lamb by showing it at night time like Everton. (I'm sure they'll be playing lots of Night time champions league games) Looks stunning for sure.

What's people's feelings on the Hicks interview in the guardian today? I ate wheatabix this morning.

Signed, have gone past the 9000 mark now.

Nothing going right for us at all, everything going right for the blues****

Just not happening today, apart from the few few minutes, goals shocked us out of our game

He's still got lots of growing to do...

Speedy on for luis looking to exploit the space they are leaving

Dirk decides to try and score with his first touch

last 5 minutes repeated would do me for the rest of the game

Fvcking get in! fantastic work from luis and cracking finish from peter

Probably bad to quote my self, but bugger me.... Agga doo doo doo

that feeling I had where I wasn't worried if we went behind as I was always confident we could score a few is rapidly disappearing, which sucks, especially as west ham look well capable of scoring again too.
