Jaysis, bad keeping by jussi jaaskelainen

Mars Bar

I couldn't see this thread and was gonna start one with a title relating to kids being back to school.

1-0 Swansea! Jussi has had better moments in goal...

Paully D

Another Premier League gameweek, another goalkeeping howler, this time from Jaaskelainen. How the likes of him and Rob Green continue to get games at the highest level is beyond me.

Paully D

Did Michu even touch Tomkins there?

lol pass

Mars Bar

Michu is tearing it up!

What was Collins at?!

markie29

2 poor goals defensively from West Ham...but Michu looks like a bargain at only 2million

nice save from vorm.

Professional Griefer

Great skill there.

double GG

All aboard the Swansea train, Michu-chu-chu!

Mars Bar

Swansea are so much fun to watch! Lucky to have not conceded at least one here

Hammer Archer

Should have at least one back. Swansea look awful from set pieces. Two mistakes have cost us. Apart from that, Swansea haven't really had a chance.
Cannot understand why Allardyce is playing Tomkins in midfield
Should see Vaz Te before the start of the second half.

Mr.Crinklewood

Sunderland - Reading in doubt due to water in pitch.

MATCH OFF.

:eek:

How did he miss that one

Professional Griefer

Poor Collins is having a nightmare.

Schism

Collins hasn't turned up today at all.

Hammer Archer

From MOTM last week to this. Tomkins and Reid had great seasons last season. Dunno why Sam didn't persist with those two.

Looking like we're going back to our usual routine of being useless away from home.

Roger Sterling

Like seeing West Ham struggle. Game raisers.

markie29

that was a classy goal by Swansea,made West Ham players look like statues the way they passed the ball around them.

Jaaskelainen is just too old really, he was a very good keeper a few years ago.

Duff and pieenar put Fulham and everton 1-0 up

QPR losing to Norwich. Get in.

Watching Villa for the second week in a row, they are poison.

Truly. When I looked at their teamsheet it seemed to me like I'd never heard of most of their squad. I assumed I was just out of touch and had a look around some forums where there seemed to be some optimism, some hoping for top 10, etc. Not to write them off too early, but they'll struggle to get 30 points playing like this.

Playing at home, 3-0 down, 33% possession and one pot-shot on goal in the whole half.

Jesus Shay Given has been shîte

Yep and it was pretty much the same against West Ham. They've gone 4-4-2 this week and it's making zero difference.

The problems obviously run a lot deeper than McLeish.

IvySlayer

Clark sent off for Villa now.

Xavi6

Lol, Clark sent off for Villa.

everdead.ie

Assou-Ekotto puts spurs 1 up

Xavi6

Villa pull one back, good strike from El Hamadi but another one that should've been saved

Professional Griefer

Anyone know if Miralles was on the bench today?

IvySlayer

West Brom equalise at WHL!

Yeah he started on the bench, came on after about 75 minutes. Looks good, had one disallowed, offside by inches.

:pac:

Mr.Crinklewood

Just seeing Torres' goal now. Fantastic footballing move. He might do well this season.

Looks like the swagger might be back alright.

Confidence could be back. When Liverpool played passing football he was top notch, he last few months were plagued due to the tactics he was forced to play. Hate to say it, but he is now back in a footballing team at Chelsea. Just needs to build on his confidence.
