Other matches weekend of Dec 8th/15th

IronHerb

The surprise has been the eloquent response by Sterling, not that it happened.

I would imagine that Sterling's eloquence would only be a surprise to those who bought the Daily Mail portrayal of him.

MrsGrey

Domingo Quina, who left WHU in the summer to go to Watford, gets his 1st PL appearance tonight.

Vorselaarhammer

Personally any footballer that shows eloquence surprises me...

;nonono

Are you forgetting Sir Trev (and his 10 O levels)?

SuzanneClaret

Hislop was a rocket scientist.

IronHerb

I very much doubt that Grey.

Herb

Then I don't really understand your point.

To me, Sterling comes across as a thoughtful and modest young man.

It will be interesting to see how he does.

Shocking miss by the lino, as Everton take the lead.

Walcott offside when the ball was played, then had a touch in the build up.

grey_til_I_dye

If only there was some way we could use technology to help in that kind of situation...

Vorselaarhammer

Buy him a pair of glasses to start with....

grey_til_I_dye

Watford, who started the season with 4 wins on the bounce, have 21 points, same as us, who didn't...

grey_til_I_dye

And Everton really should have had Mina sent off.

Thing is, while I'm 100% for VAR, in this particular instance, anything that grinds Deeney's gears is fine by me.

grey_til_I_dye

Everton imploding.

Ship 2 quick goals and miss a pen.

thornburyiron

Drops us town to 12th.

Lukerz

Much better Everton lose

We aren’t far off them

thornburyiron

Stoppage time equaliser

grey_til_I_dye

Top result from our POV.

MrsGrey

Not watching, just following on the Beeb's texts. Sounds like Hoffenheim don't have the word 'defence' in their dictionary.

SuzanneClaret

SkysSuperSunday

Just finished our Sunday roast and are now settling down to watch Liverpool v ManUtd.

Hoping Liverpool give ManUtd a right shellacking ;biggrin

IronHerb

So Allison, the greatest keeper the world has ever seen, drops the ball. ;lol

PrestonHammer

I wonder if the same supporters who gave Karius and Mignolet so much stick are going to give Allison the same amount?

BubblesNeverDies

Typical that Southampton, who we would have expected to get at least a point from if Sparky were still the manager, today end Arsenal's 22 game unbeaten run, just a week and a half before we play them away.

Cuz1

Although if we put our chances away we be home and dry

Better they get that performance out of their system against another team, than do it to us.

Arsenal's defence was shaky when we played them, and better finishing would have seen us get at least a draw, and they had several defenders out against Southampton.

MrsGrey

They had Xhaka at CB. And Bellerin went off injured at half time (1 point, just sayin' ;angry ) and they switched to a back 4.

ASLEFshrugged

I watched MotD2 last night, Man U had a goal disallowed because Lukaku was offside but if you watch the replay Sadio Mane gives him a shove into an offside position as the free kick was being taken. Cheeky.

IronHerb

If Lukaku allows himself to be shoved by Mane then he deserves what he gets.
