  1. Its seems a long time ago but I'm certain that under GH we often had the best record against the other top teams but fell down badly against the rest. In fact wasn't there a time when our away record was better than at home Perhaps the answer is a joint GH/RB management team
  2. There were a few dodgy decisions, but I thought the ref tried to keep the game moving and did ok overall
  3. aye, we did that too, it certainly is a conundrum
  4. we were doing a bit of an Arsenal today - too often trying to walk the ball in the net

    Mascherano

    Not many Ronaldos around though are there? (although we could put Stevie with his 20 odd goals back on the right I suppose )

    Pennant

    He is indeed a fantastic player in the making and ultimately I think he will end up the better player. As things stand at the moment, however, I would pick Pennant ahead of Lennon. Dunno about slowly improving, I think he's been one of our top three performers in the last half dozen games

    Pennant

    He may not beat his man as often as many on here would like but I think he's a very intelligent football player who can pick a pass and who rarely loses the ball. His tracking back has improved 100% and his first touch (IMO) is one of the best in the squad. In fact I seriously believe he deserves to be in the England squad ahead of Aaron Lennon.
  8. 1. Gerrard 2. Mascherano 3. Pennant
  9. Don't under-estimate a footballer's desire to play for his country just because many of 'us lot' dont care about the national side
  10. Looking on the bright side, our problems render the Barca ones null and void in the excuse stakes should we do the business at the Camp Nou
  11. to be honest I don't think our lack of games is necessarily a good thing
  12. It may be that this fiasco is centred around the Premier League, but you can bet your life there's frantic discussions going on with the FA as well.

    Riise

    I've lost count how often I've seen Gerrard sprinting back to help out his mate lately. Its a worry for sure.
  14. 1. Pennant 2. Agger 3. Carra

    Adam Hamill

    Hope they realise that 18 year old kids often lack consistency and cut him the slack he's probably likely to need during the coming months.

    FAO NYR

    Hmmm, a new pile of straws to clutch then
  17. Agger was wasteful in possession during the first 20 minutes but improved considerably thereafter
  18. I thought the players that were WORSE than Pennant today were - Alonso, Gerrard, Riise, Finnan, Crouch, Bellamy and Kuyt. Really think its time to stop the bashing to be honest.
  19. Think they'll be announced together if all goes well. If not the right back chappie will be announced alone as an appeasement
  20. Imagine being able to do all that for your own community. His mum must be very proud.
  21. No one except FIFA. From what I can gather most of the other instances where FIFA have bent this rule have been pretty low profile. If they bend it for us, our high profile ensures many more are able to gasp at the incompetance of it all.

    Boring boring

    Yup, and nearly as bad I've no excuse now not to do some housework and/or ironing
  23. OK, lets all brace ourselves, yet again, for the Gerrard to..........stories at around this time next year
  24. Hope he can be persuaded to stay but Rafa will not stand in his way if he wants to go. As someone said above, if he was to move on, I'd prefer him to go abroad rather than turn out for another team in the Premiership. Lets face it, though, he's earned the right to do whatever will make him happiest.
