Will be a tense second half unless we get a second. Our 2nd half performances haven't been brilliant recently...

Eh? How is that not a corner? Offisde? But he didn't touch it?

Riding our luck at times but can't complain too much! Cisse nearly made it two there...Really is a battle of who can turn the chances into goals. Both defences are shaky.

Carroll, he dives when he wants, Carroll Carroll he dives when he wants!

CISESSEEEE!!! BEN ARFA I LOVE YOU!

2 Yellows in the first 16. Ugly ugly Liverpool...

Not the best of starts...nervous about these corners!

Hahaha, fuck off Carroll!

They certainly don't have the strongest of teams. Defence aside, we look stronger in midfield and our strikers look more than adept at tearing apart their defence. It is just that worry that we drop some goals and the heads drop.

Nervous as hell for this. Definitely going to be a lot of goals. Glad that Pards seems to have decided that we might as well go for it. May well be a case of just scoring more goals than them (which always helps ). I'm going for a 4-3 win...

I didn't think it was possible to like Tiote any more than I already did. Knowing he is a Viv Westwood fan has confirmed his god-like status. Got to say, he doesn't strike me as the type...

Great goal, that. I got myself relegated to Div 5 to see if I could come all the way back up with Santos. Got back to back promotions to takes me to Div 3, although not playing as well as I would of liked. Want to find a team I actually enjoy playing as. Santos are great going forward but their defending leaves some things to be desired...

Also everyone has a dip in form every now and again. Happens to even the very best players, and in terms of goals alone, it is happening to Ba. But then his play otherwise has still been top draw. If we can find a way to get Ba and Cisse firing at the same time then we are really onto something. Add Ben Arfa into that mix and we do really have 3 great forwards, as everyone is pointing out.

Would prefer to stick Santon at CB with...well, with who I don't know. I think what Colo does back there is keep everyone organised and focused. Could stick Tiote at CB? I know Pards won't, but we need someone there to keep everyone organised and I don't trust any of our other defenders to do that...

Perch having a stormer? Everyone on Twitter seems to be saying so.

7!? Well, I can't comment having only just turned on, but does that sound right?

This defence looks very very shakey. Hope Colo doesn't have a bad injury.

Looking at a much wider social phenomenon. Seems very odd to me that this is how people react to these things, even if said people would never normally be religious. Lets talk about it through the medium of song.

The fuck is Williamson playing at?

That makes up for it!

Oh Papiss...

Passing on this game is fucking ridiculous.

Did anyone notice how very few of our players wanted to pass to Obertan last night? After his first few fuck ups he was screaming for the ball at times but instead people like Tiote would turn and look for another option. Really get the feeling that every other player at the club realises how shit he is as well, and look to not involve him as much as possible. Still can't get over how he didn't set up Ba at the start of the second half...

With a throw in up there why not let Ben Arfa take it to the feet of Shola or Ba in the corner and just hold it up for that last minute? Just as ridiculous as Obertan not passing the ball to Ba at the start of the second half.

Where did that 5 minutes come from anyway? What a load of shit.
