match reaction v brighton

[Ollie the Optimist]

I wasn't watching it to be honest, the sun came out and I was washing my car

so you are arguing that you would rather watch the big teams in the fa cup like stoke v city then arsenal v brighton because there is more chance of an upset, yet then admit you didnt watch it because you washed your car? so therefore showing it wasnt a big enough game for you, therefore completely destroying your own argument

....and they were, and they so were knocked out by the likes of Bradford, Swansea and a Ball Boy/Man in the League Cup.

You can't beat that tbh

Swansea have shown they can beat top sides, they're one of the few sides who have good enough technical players to play football and beat better sides (they also have a man who can score goals at a drop of a hat).

Bradford had gained a lot of belief from victory over weakened teams from a higher league in earlier rounds, sometimes this belief helps them go on a run in a cup. I think the fourth round is a bit early for a team to have that, they've only realistically won one game against higher placed opposition.

No I'm arguing that Stoke vs Man City is a bigger game than Brighton vs Arsenal.

I didn't watch it as I don't support those clubs and thus if I have something else to do I'll do it.

Ollie, I could have sworn Zimm is WUMming you ...he must have a satisfied grin on his face right now

That's subjective, they're organised, efficient, hard working and committed all desirable qualities in football and that's why the do so well. Team like Reading that try to play pretty football with sub standard players get thumped regularly and shown up for what they are, not good enough.

Not every club has the players to play expansive football, you play using the method most suitable to achieve relative success at your club.

And nobody wants to see that dirge.

How did Ox and Rosicky play?

I'm glad our big guns got a rest.

Fucking crap. They were anonymous.

[Niall_Quinn]

Why is everyone having a go at Santos? Just seen the goals, neither Brighton goal was his fault far as I can see.

Are you serious or are you WUMming?

That is the type of one liner that should be in the newspaper ratings. I reckon that works out at a pair of 3s.

and by half time you could tell he had no fitness as was compeltely fucked. then it came out that about 4am this morning he was liking pictures on instagram. hardly a professional attidue there

I can't understand how things have got so fucked up in football so we can't sack somebody so obviously negligent as this Santos bloke. He couldn't give a flying fuck what's going on on the pitch. He's out of shape, has an attitude problem a mile wide and plainly doesn't want to be here. Or at least he doesn't want to be on the pitch. In any other profession those would be grounds for sacking. But we have to put up with this guy and who's ever going to buy him having seen him playing? If Wenger hadn't made such classics blunders as Chamakh and Park it would be easy to say this our worst signing ever.

The rest of them bar Podolski, Giroud and the subs should be fined two weeks wages for today's performance, the waster bastards.
