Agree. There is too much emphasis on attack, and not enough credit is given for a good defensive performance. I wish Utd could put one in.

Stats can lie, or perhaps a better description would be mislead. If you looked at the stats for the Barca game in isolation without knowing the score, how many would've predicted such a close scoreline?

I think Celtic will do well to hold onto Wanyama...

Who will be this weeks coupon buster?

I reckon QPR, after Arsenal decide to fly to The Emmirates from their training ground, thus suffering the effects of jetlag again...


Aston Villa 2 Norwich 1

Arsenal 1 QPR 2

Reading 1 Fulham 1

Stoke 2 Sunderland 1

Wigan 3 West Ham 2

Man City 3 Swansea 1


A proper Super Sunday...


Everton 1 Liverpool 1

Newcastle 2 West Brom 1

Southampton 1 Tottenham 2

Chelsea 0 Man Utd 1

...as an aside, happy that I am there's a fair few of us on here, I'm still a bit surprised that the EDF Football Focus has more Irons regulars (EP, Maxxi, Rhinestone, 'bout now and me) than any others (Arsenal gets a bit close)...we must like it down here in bandit country :)

It's where all the nice ladies bints live...


or maybe we just have more bunny* because banging on about the footy is our substitute for winning a trophy (would explain why the last comment in the 'life outside the premiership' thread was back in May... and was about the Irons' promotion!)



*Returns to lounging outside Dagenham Heathway Shopping Centre saying "Cor!" and shaking head at the shocking repointing above the charity shop.

      Major Incident?

      > could be related to the three arrests yesterday. > Without knowing, it is just speculation Perhaps they'd been warned of a Spetznaz squad  planning to rescue them and were taking them to Croydon nick for security's sake. https://news.met.police.uk/news/three-arrested-in-london-under-the-national-security-act-502493

      Major Incident?

      By David Peckham · Posted

      It was a bit of a jump by me from Cyclemonkey seeing a similar presence at London Bridge. Larnaca wouldn't have brought a huge amount of fans, but it was the first time Palace have hosted a competitive European tie. There's the issue of Northern Cyprus and heightened media interest around footy because of the Villa Maccabi game at the moment, so that may have had a bearing on the scale of the operation. It does seem unlikely if it was at four o'clock, though.
