Good morning.
The second wave of the weekend’s Premier League pickings. Yesterday’s hunches were a mixed bag accuracy wise. Laudrup’s remark about bungs to encourage teams to win matches was clearly a cry for help. I was closer on the Cheatski game who struggled, dived and dived again to nick a goal against the Potters.
I was pleased to see Southampton get back on the their feet. Villa fans will spend today on the settee eating ice cream, watching Bridget Jones’ DVDs. The Baggies ground out a goal in what looked like an uninspiring business from the bits I caught. I got the West Ham game wrong and the Fulham win panned out.
Liverpool vs Manchester United
Whiners vs Gloaters. Brendan Rodgers is looking for his first Premier League win. He’d be better off putting a ‘Missing – Have You Seen My…’ card in his local newsagent’s window than asking Sluralix for it. I don’t like either of these two, a nil nil draw would be the best outcome for the table but I’d like Liverpool to get beaten. Prediction? Away win by two goals.
Newcastle vs Norwich
Tough gig this for the Canaries. I’ve a soft spot for Delia’s mob, their fans are a decent bunch and they will travel in number, brightening up Tyneside with their old school scarves and crazy vowels. Pardew’s gang will quite possibly destroy them. A home win, maybe 3 0r 4 nil.
Manchester City vs Arsenal
City’s performance against Real Madrid was seriously uninspiring stuff. They remind me of that army of brooms marching in Fantasia. You raise your eyebrows, but it’s not enjoyable viewing. Arsenal’s form isn’t as rock solid as they might have you believe. So far they have beaten Liverpool and a self-combusting Southampton.Home win, 3-1.
Tottenham vs QPR
The longer the wait for kick off has gone on the more cautiously optimistic I am becoming. My ‘win by a goal’ mantra is edging out into thoughts of a cheeky 2-0. Could we get three? I really have a good vibe about Dempsey and whatever happens it would be great to see him get on the score sheet.
He’s not ” Pele ” ! . He’s ” Dembele ” ! .
Not sure how to say this but it’s lose, very lose……..and there’s always a bit of blood…
Well,when you find it,let us know
I just found it….
In one bag was some marbles and the other was a bright shiney trophy with the words – ‘Spurs tough is a cock 2012/12. Mum slept with a smurf 2011’.
Clever lad ;-)
It’s all those lattes you’ve been drinking.
Wow you’ve got a good memory Spartacus (damn you spell checker!)
I didn’t know how yo tell the Dr either. But as the ad says ‘it doesn’t matter how you tell the Dr, just tell him’.
So I sang ‘I got blood in me pooh what am I gonna do?’
I got blood in me pooh what am I gonna do?’
UB40 stylee.
Or, there’s a rat in me anus so what ya do, there’s a rat in me anus so what ya do, I gonna dat rat, I gonna shoot dat rat yeah……
Time to lift the shackles and give the hoops a good battering. Spurs 4-1 dem-pele man of match.
Van persie Whoa, Van persie whoa, he had to the scum cos wenger touched his son…
I knew there was something missing from the blog. A bit a peadophilic taunting. Ah everything feels right again.
We have been solid at the back and fluid in midfield at levels increasing with every game …all we need is more creativity up front,which i’m hoping Dempsey will provide today
Was hoping to see Hugo debut in Premiership but read elsewhere Brad will start today.. is this confirmed ?
Pretty much-but what exactly has Brad done wrong that warrants dropping him>
Not leaving his line, thus putting pressure on his back four. This costs us goals. So he’s got good reflexes? But then so has every other keeper in the league. Overrated, overhyped, and over here.
Lloris looks class.
Being born over 41 years ago?
Brads (a true gent & pro) aint done nothing wrong, but the future awaits…. And the future’s Lilly Bright White….
