Administrator sir..
1) Dawson's never played leftside-CB before.... remember when Terry tried to play rightside-CB against the Germans ??
2) you'd really rather play King against Stoke than possibly our most important game for 49yrs ??... can't see him being asked to play both..
3) Modric is injured.... and anyway...at Stoke away ??!!
How BoutI like the look of this team and i think a draw would be a good result there...but i been thinking that maybe Harry is blowing a smoke screen and maybe keane is going to play some in this game....i think Keane will be on the bench and maybe Gio also???
Gomes
Corluka Dawson Bassong BAE
Kaboul Palacious
Huddlestone
Lennon Bale
Crouch
:nods:
I bet you lot a veggie somosa and a bag of chips that Rose plays 2moro... :P

I want my veggie somosa and a bag of chips please :P
I dunno Wilson, looked like Gomes got a shove to me. I think justice was done tbh, it probably was over the line but if you watch it back, what the Stoke guy was doing with his arms stretched towards Gomes if he DIDN'T shove him, I dunno...
And lets be fair, Bale's volley is worthy of winning any game :D :dance:
swings n roundabouts..
Citeh game we deserved to win.... we drew
today's game we deserved to draw..... we win
looks like the defending was pretty average again... Gallas will be in te team soon enough..
Sandro will still be on holiday so right now im looking at our cm options. Only Ohara is available for sub.
the defending was not well at all.... everytime the ball came into the final third, they looked like they could score.... the fact that they didnt was just the chance factor working in our favour.... as opposed to last week..
we didnt exert enough CONTROL in the match in the 2nd half as much as we could have.... it seems that the CM appears to run outta steam in the 2nd half abit (2 games running now) and couldnt screen the back4 enough...
thats a rather old cliched article youve dredged up therre Ugs... do try to keep up..
and yes, it looks like Jenas will soon be moving on... to some club called Juventus..
you may need to 'google' the name of the club..

Sandroman.... youre right about Huth's foul on Gomes for the 'goal' incident..
but did you not also notice how everytime they had a setpiece into the penalty-area how Huth was SYSTEMATICALLY fouling the goalkeeper time after time after time... I counted at least 4 setpieces where this happened from the 13mins of highlights I'd recorded...
I think that Huth and 1-2 others are told to stand near the GK during corners, freekicks, Delap-throw-ins, any setpiece really, by the manager Pulis, as a way of gaining advantage by cheating.... Huth especially has become quite expert in this and didnt go punished once..... Arry was absolutely right in highlighting the foul prior to the disallowed 'goal'...
Referees need to look at previous videos of Stoke matches and see for themselves how they use this rogue tactic to garner advantage from the numerous set-plays they seem to use as their primary offence-plays...
and that freak Pulis had the temerity to cry foul !.... I'd like to purse my lips and wag my finger at him..
Actually Auburn I didn't see it as a systematic attack as you have provenSandroman.... youre right about Huth's foul on Gomes for the 'goal' incident..

Mauling in the box is a major issue. Refs seemed to have decided to just ignore it.
Jenas played the best outta the midfielders defensively, shutting down space and blocking the best of all.... he also made at least 2 very telling moves (1) great weighted 40yd diagonal thru'ball for Bale to get his 3-trick... also played a good 1-2 with Bale to get into the box and nearly score (the keeper saved)...
still wont be enough to not be the scapegoat tho...

We expect teams to play hard ,but calculated player intimidation and interference of this sort must be stopped
I'm sure Harry will be on to it as most teams will target Gomes from now on
reckless, malicious = same freakin difference.
I truly believe its time for players as individuals and clubs as commercial-entities threaten to sue individual PLAYERS for very dangerous and reckless fouls which endanger the livelihood of a fellow-pro...
with all the video-evidence that can be collated from numerous angles, cases can be made and litigation sought if/when te situation warrants it..
I'm sick and tired of the consistently casual acceptance of physical violence that goes on on a football-pitch... and to those that say its 'a man's game', I dont think its that manly to go in to cripple someone when his attention is on controlling a football rather than in defending himself from physical attack..

Let's re name the game instead of football let's call it ...........um netball um no tiddlywinks !!!!
How many tackles are made in a game and how many end with a SERIOUS injury FFS it IS a man's game(although nowdays I do wonder with all the primadonnas about) but with calls for court action here and court action there the players will be wearing slippers soon and have to do a risk assesment before each bloody tackle !!!!
Like WilsonJet says grow a pair or watch netball
>:(
if you willfully break that duty, you pay the price for any damage, loss of earnings for player and/or club..
you really are very naive aren't you.... theres been plenty of footage already in games where a player is so obviously 'going for the player' as his eyes are not remotely on the ball evwen but trained totally at the player and the part of his anatomy targeted for damage....
in those cases, I think malicious undue regard can quite easily be proven beyond reasonable doubt.... thats all you'd needf in a civil-court prosecution, as opposed to a criminal-court case..
you are an ostritch if you can't follow the logic of the argument so far.
Shin fetish?

What if the guy just has a lazy eye? Dirty contact lens? Shin fetish?
like any other civil-court case, all relevant information will be admissable and a studied verdict will be made... I think its now only a matter of time before a club goes down this route to seek recompence and also to send a signal to other teams in future that they had better watch their step and not target players for 'special treatment' ....
perhaps dearest Arsene could be a pioneer yet again... :coolsmiley:
