    Spurs are utter pants at the moment.

    They'll be lucky to finish top 10 at this rate.

    Hey does anyone know what channel has the champions league coverage these days? I know sky has TV rights for the matches but they were shared by ITV, does anyone know if they still share the rights?

    What I don't get about Sunderland is that people bum off them despite them being only one or two class players better than Derby. If Chopra gets injured they're screwed.

    Sunderland would be recognised more because this time last year they were bottom of the championship and looked pretty hopeless.

    Yeah, but in regards to the Premiership they aren't even a mid-table team unlike what a lot of people seem to think.

    For gods sake we need Saha back.

    A centre forward capable of leading the line is the only thing we are lacking in order to proper fuck a team up 4-0.

    Meanwhile, Chelsea can not only score goals but actually play.

    Lehmann needs to stop cocking up. We deserved to win yesterday and we probably would have if he didn't fuck up to the extreme. I'm a goalkeeper and I understand mistakes are made, but Lehmann has probably made more mistakes in his time at Arsenal than the keepers of the top 4 teams combined.

    I hope we can tie up a deal for Luka Modric soon, he would be a great signing as he can play anywhere in attacking/playmaking midfield and he is strong on either foot which means we could finally have a left midfielder who is actually good on his left foot. Only thing is that I'm sure Dinamo Zagreb would be more than reluctant to sell him considering he's probably their best player and we've already taken Eduardo from them aswell as Manchester City buying Corluka.

    Now Rob Styles has apologised to Liverpool for being a crap referee, let's have everyone to do with the club apologise to everyone else for the worst-kept secret in English football, eg the fact that Gerrard isn't much better than the usual suspects when it comes to cheating.

    After Petrov came off we played well and won after being crap in the first half. Shows how much his standards have dropped since his first two games.

    We had to work for our win today but overall I think we probably deserved to win. It was a great finish by Cesc and Hleb and Rosicky played magnificantly.

    One thing is for sure though, Kasper Schmiecial has the potential to be a world class keeper in the future.
