Drogba - what a finish. C'mon on Villa!!

homerjay2005

drogba goal very sloppy, ball barely kicked over the line, any thoughts on the challenge on villa keeper? i have seen them given as a foul before, but this looked ok. close call though

Royale with Cheese

Did drogba put it in or was it the defender behind him?

wheres me jumpa

Bad decision by the linesman. Will he be punished by the FA at all for that decision?

Bolton worked so hard today, terrible team to watch but you have to admire their effort. Pool created zilch today.

Roddy23

Nice goal by van Persie, makes it 1-1. Darren Bent had earlier scored, after Eboue and Toure went walking at the back post.

Lovely build play by Henry and Helb setup van Persie.

How dare you use logic and facts to pick apart his arguement.

Agbonlahor scores for Villa, similar to Chelsea's goal.

Baros should have made it 1-2, good spin off the defender but poor shot, Villa are still in it. Chelsea always look like they loose interest when they go 1 up imo.

Up the Villa

Baros built a career around that sentence while at Liverpool.

Emm Chelsea score from the keeper dropping the ball and Drogba miskicking it in over the line from about 2 feet out.

Villa have a corner, its cleared, Ridgewell peels off to the back post, Davis picks him out and he heads it back across the goal where Gabby gets up and heads it down into the bottom corner.

Simalar?

Well he did well to create the chance and has only made appearances from the bench this season. He scored more league goals than any Liverpool Striker last season, he has ability but like some other good strikers (e.g. Andy Cole) he needs a few chances to score.

I also wouldnt bet, even with someone elses money, on him to score when 1 on 1 with the keeper. Him and Cisse are the kings of missed chances.

Similar in that both were created from good crosses, then headered on, giving the opportunity. Ye'd get a pain in the arse round here with some of the comments.

Raskolnikov

Drogba looking like the player that Shevchenko used to be in the first half. Lots of neat knock downs and flick ons, supplied Lamps and Essien with two shots on goal, made a couple of excellent clearances from Villa corners and of course, scored Chelsea's goal. I would have to say, Chelsea's best player today. Shevchenko not even in the game, awful.

Villa wholly deserving their goal. Sorensen has been brilliant in goal. Petrov playing well too, breaking up Chelsea at some key moments and surging forward. He'd be Villa's best player after Sorensen in my opinion.

Raskolnikov

Anyone notice how Robben and Cole don't seem to be interlinking on the left at all? Cole is constantly overlapping Robben on the wing but never even gets a look in.

Well I was just asking but if you want to be like that about it fine. Also going by your logic I'd say a large number of goals are simalar.:)

Roddy23

I'd say a large number of goals are simalar.

-they all end up in the back of the net.

Roddy23

- what a goal from van Persie -sweet strike. Arsenal lead 2-1.
lovely volley.

when drogba first came to these shores everyone thought he was total cack but mourinho stuck by him, he adjusted to the league and now hes banging goals in from everywhere and having excellent games everytime he plays. Its gonna take Shev a while to get used to the pace and style of the english game and once he figures out how to do it there's gonna be alot of people around here with a very very different tune!





Not picking apart your post in particular raskolnikov, just kinda pointing at everyone who says shev is ****e or whatever

Cole was screaming for the ball from Robben a moment ago and he just ignored him and played it back to the keeper.

Pepe LeFrits

Van Persie with an absolute stunner apparently. I finally acquired a feed and it cut out just before the goal. Oh well, MOTD I guess.

Roddy23

That Champions League goal from Helb, seems to have done him wonders. He's having a great game here. Pepe i just posted my stream there, cut out once so far, but grand now.

Villain

Villa game is great stuff to watch both teams had chances in the last few minutes.

Lovely link up play with Petrov and Angel, if anyone wondered if Petrov is good enough for the Premiership I think he has answered them, he is a class act.

PHB

Shevchenko is too good for Chelsea's style of play. He needs the ball passed into him, like he used to get from Kaka and Pirlo, and because he doesn't get it, he needs to drop deep and gets nothing done. He hasn't adjusted to boring football yet. Luckily Poll is just giving everything to Chelsea

Roddy23

Rosicky on for van Persie. Very good game from Robin today - and two lovely taking goals, with the second one a peach of a volley.

Villain

What a game, what a game!

Villa hold the champions at Stamford Bridge!!!!

Martin O'Neill really must have something special, I mean apart from Petrov he hasn't got any more players than Villa had last year, infact we had Milner last year. The man has something special I just hope we can build on this point and start winning away from home against lower ranked teams.

Super Super Villa.

Guy:Incognito

You better hope that the "something special" isnt just new manager syndrome, cos that usually doesnt last more than 7 or 8 games.

New Manager syndrome has played its part I'm sure but I think that has probably worn off and don't forget we have millions coming in January. Although I think one of the big factors that has helped us is the way Martin keeps the same team, everyone is working hard, I mean Gabby made a great tackle in the 6 yard box right at the end, not many wide players would be working that hard after 90 minutes.

Roddy23

Good win for Arsenal, ye'd expect them to win a match like this, but they went out and did it. Was good to see Wenger and vanPersie at the end, celebrating between them. Hopefully now this will see vanPersie really kick off, and fulfill his obvious potential.

Call Me Jimmy

Is the united match on the tele? or on ppstream or anything like that?

growler

frustrating afternoon at the Bridge, chelsea paid the price for their 1st half complacency and then had 10+ decent-ish chances in the second but just couldn't put it away, one great shot from Sheva well saved by Sorensen, other than that he looked slow and sleepy.

Cracking game to watch though, fair play to villa, your scorer (won't attempt to spell the name) made Cashley Cole look like a chump on more than one occasion, his tactic of lying flat on the ground when someone runs at him seems a bit strange, still can't take to him in a blue shirt.

jank

Good win by arsenal. Van the man could have had a hat trick!

f@!k me Roeder is trying to be clever by going 4-5-1 dropping Martins and bringing Butt back (does anyone still remember his disgraceful performance against the Mancs last time he played against them for us?). Oh God...

Necronomicon

1-0 United (Manchester that is ) Solskjaer from inside the box, assisted by Ronaldo.

evad_lhorg

it did hit the post yea? picture went a bit dodgy just ronaldo shot

Spurs 1-0 after 45 seconds!

kinaldo

Depressing stuff. Instead of trying to win we seem happy to play for a draw or just damage limitation. I hate you Roeder.

Necronomicon

2-0 United, Solskjaer again, although he knew nothing about it! A Vidic shot deflected in. Straight after Ronaldo blasted over from close range after a great move. United really are flowing.

Aquos76

Man U 2 Newcastle 0

evad_lhorg

should be 4!!
cant belive Ronaldo missed and cant believe scholes chipped.


and POST AGAIN#!!!!!! arghhh

Necronomicon

Joy to watch. Ronaldo has hit the post 3 times :eek: My FF team weeps!

PHB

Thats such a peno its unreal

Necronomicon

Deja vu! Taylor saves Fletcher's shot with his hand, goes over clutching his ribs. Reminds me of last season, was it against Villa he did that and got sent off?

Stone wall penalty denied.
