  1. There were a lot of positives from this match in all imo, we matched Arsenal the whole match to be honest and were let down by a moment of poor marking. We have to be looking to get 3 points from West Brom as Man City will be a big ask.
  2. That's the point, put a ball in there and it can go off anyone, trying to smack the ball into where he did would have took a perfectly precise shot as well as Szczesny making a complete hash of it. He had to shoot across goal in that position, for what it's worth I like Ben Afra a lot and would start him but he deserves criticism for his bad choice the same as Gouffran and Remy deserve stick for bottling going for the ball.
  3. Disappointing result, I think it should have been a free kick as it was a foul on Anita before their free kick. Very disappointed with the players wussing out of some things, think Gouffran could have dived in but took a step back and Remy also moved backwards as when the ball flicked back it was in the area Remy should have been in. Ben Arfa was good when he come on but he needs to be told to fucking pass, shooting towards the near post was pure fucking stupidity and greed if he was going to shoot it had to be to the far post but he really should have been putting in a cross as the 6 yard box was packed. Debuchy was class again imo, Anita was disappointing, Remy was anonymous again, Cabaye started bright but then faded a little and sat too deep when we were pressing them.
  4. I won the league my 3rd season with Southampton, Clyne, Shaw and Ward Prowse are all class acts now (Ward Prowse in particular). Got some Romanian lad called iancu as Lallana has been getting injury prone recently, Danny Welbeck as another option up front/on the wing, and Balanta in defence (he's a monster Madrid, Monaco, Barca etc all tracking him but I'm financially sound so no need to sell). Picked up a lad called Ryan Ledson from Everton and he's becoming a canny midfielder in my rotation. After winning the league my form took a nightmare dip and I started getting grief from everyone (including Gordon Strachan the cheeky cunt ) but forms picked up and I'm top 5 now coming into December. I'm considering starting a new game, maybe a smaller league like Croatia or Ukraine as I really enjoyed the one I had with Boca Juniors on FM 2010 (Where I took a shine to mussachio and now I buy him on every FM game I play, he's worth £15m now on my Soton game after buying him for 2m). The only thing putting me off is I sometimes like to move up to a stronger league after making a name in a smaller one but on my FM I don't seem to be getting offered many jobs, anyone else noticed this? normally by this point I'd of been offered every job going but I've had nowt apart from an interview for AC Milan (it always bugged me how quickly the game had top teams offer you jobs but this seems the opposite atm).
  5. Aye Ozil is top class tbh, glad we have Tiote back to track him around the box.
  6. At least Ramsey is out, Flamini and Wilshere are dangerous mind.
  7. Are Wilshere and Ramsey definitely out for this? Big boost for us if they are. We definitely have a good chance I reckon as Arsenal have looked tired the last few games and they had to work hard to beat West Ham, whereas our lot had it quite easy.
  8. Borini has collapsed and been taken to hospital apparently. They look dreadful, another of their more winnable games results in no points.
  9. They're probably all out on the drink before it.
  10. Aye I was expecting us to pick up for the 2nd half. We usually have one canny half nowadays, mind we were shocking for that first 40 minutes and it's a good thing Stoke are an utterly shite team.
  11. I'm chuffed with the result. Aye it was only against 9 men and they were the better side with 11 but I fucking hate Stoke. Whelan was actively looking to kick Cabaye I reckon, he'd gotten chippy with him for his first yellow (which was probably a soft one for kicking the ball away) but his 2nd yellow was for a petulant kick to the back of cabaye. The 2nd sending off was fair tbh Remy was denied a good chance. Aye the ball did go out for our 2nd goal but we only got 2 out of 4 penalty decisions. Stoke lost today because they're dirty twats and it caught up with them.
  12. We've been very poor tbh only level thanks to Atkinson. Sissoko has been making some odd choices in that more advanced CM role, I'd prefer to see Cabaye there and have Sissoko in behind him. Remy is struggling being alone up top so I'd like to see him and Gouffran switched. We have to win this now tbh.
  13. That's the toughest thing, I don't think anyone deserves dropped but he deserves a start. Good to finally have these sort of selection issues.
  14. Cracking performance that, we could have really run away with that one but 3-0 is great. Think Ben Arfa deserves a start now tbh he's looked dangerous every time he's come on last few week.
  15. I once saw him playing badminton with his mate in Eldon Leisure when he was supposed to be out with a knee injury, scandalous stuff. Good on the bloke for doing this mind. He provided a lot of laughs over the years and was a canny player, the whole West Ham bother took him down in my estimation at the time (coupled with the aforementioned badminton incident) but he's a canny bloke.
  16. What's happening there like? Bloke seems a very good manager tbh, that Tan blokes a fucking loon like.
  17. Moyes will put the first team out in all tbh, he'll be desperate to win a cup.
  18. He's class tbh, I think he just comes on here with a completely made up assumption in his head reads nowt and then laughs about how he assumes we're acting. Not sure I see any envy or hint of meltdown tbh, winning a quarter final in the Carling cup means absolutely naff all.
  19. Cup for sure. Even if we did qualify for the CL Ashley would just pocket the cash.
  20. Aye I've found them useless at placing my accent I've had Australian, South African, Scottish, Irish, welsh etc.
  21. Aye he's comfortably their best midfielder now. I wouldn't be opposed at all because he's class, but like rolling stone said there's nee chance.
  22. Mine once looked at some daft map of countries biggest industries (or something along those lines) and declared that New Zealand's was movies, I took a look at it she had assumed India was New Zealand. She's a yank mind Geography isn't their strong point.
