Lloris saves, twice from Pikachu or whatever his name is.
Oh no not in terms of creativity but in terms of solidity.....we looked about as stable as one of my feeble attempts to cook an omlette
When you buy three or four new players like Spurs have done it takes a while for them to bed in and that's why they aren't the finished article but considering the sloppy mess we were yesterday i still stand by my statement.
Pika Pi
Certainly they're going down the power route. Not sure that's a great idea really, teams will park the bus routinely. Granted we're not in a great position to judge right now but I'd be very surprised if we didn't finish above them - I am expecting we will buy some randomers that will do a job of some degree.
0-1 FT. Parry points out they are ahead of us in the table, which they were at kick-off.
Mata benched.
Time for him to come home.
FFS Mata is my FFL captain
Fuck off Mourinho
but the thing is when you bed in new players you normally find yourself grinding out results even against poor opposition until the new players have settled and you start having the confidence to start attacking teams.
What we totally failed to do at the Emirates yesterday, as soon as we scored Villa were using their pace to try and force their way back into the game now if Wenger could get over his hubris and delusion and had any kind of tactical nous he would have encouraged the players to drop back for a bit and take the sting out of the game and a side like Villa which isn't great at possession football would not have much joy against our back four if it sat back deeper....and we could have been patience and looked to kill the game off second half.....wouldn't have been pretty but it would have been the best way to deal with the current situation.
But in Wenger's mind the team are world beaters and we can simply try and impose our passing game on anyone at home and come out victorious and this is why we were made to look bloody stupid.
Lampard and Terry playing
I thought Mourinho was meant to be intelligent
