The schedule has made it next to impossible for us to prepare for this one properly.

I expect Defoe, Ghaly & Mido to all come into the side today. Lennon & Zokora really should be rested.

2-0 Chelsea

Good job of damage Limitation .

I'm sure Paul Robinson would've recieved a firm kick up his (portly) backside if his name was Jerzy Dudek. That must be something like a dozen "speculative" long-rangers he's conceded. Otherwise we put in a very good away performance - Petr Cech is a monster.

Ferguson can moan about our poor schedule - but an evening game might've been too dodgy for security. United couldn't respond to the pressure, quite simply. Can't moan as they really haven't had to play after Chelsea in the run in. Edwin Van Der Sar is Over-rated. He fucked up for Juventus - and he's about to do the same for Man Utd. Choker.

Are Arsenal just going through the motions now? Tip us to do them next weekend. Bobby Zamora acheived the impossible of making a lob look ugly - only he couuld pull that off. Offside goal too . Well done to the Hammers regardless.

Colin's Blades are going down. Thank God.

I'd rather have Nelson than either of them - you'd have more chance of buying him too surely ?

Nelson who?

Young Benifca rightback, very promising apparently. We were linked to him but Roeder said he's not interested(fool!). All i really know is that he looks good on youtube.

I'm as stubborn on Zamora as I am on other players. A lob is meant to be an elegant piece of skill. I reckon it was a miscued volley that decieved Lehmann.

Because he's proven to be such a success in that area (Henry, Jeffers, Ca$hley)

He is as good athletically but better at defending and strikes a ball really well (a very underrated quality in a footballer).

Great win for pompey yesterday, shi*ing myself a little when united got a goal back but all is well. Coupe of united fans on the board, i'm sure the win was taken in good spirits

i wasn't expecting that from someone who think Lampard is sh*t.

When u say he's better at defending, do u mean one v one, positioning or both? Eboue is great at one v one but his positioning isn't that good, definitely something he has to work on. His crossing has improved a lot and is a very godd dribbler.

Did he use the old classic 'I haven't even heard of him' like he did for Tavano?

Tweedle wrote:Lampard strikes the ball well - its about the only thing he can do but you can't claim that he doesn't strike it well.

Sure, not every shot is a thunderbolt but he's scored some powerful efforts over the years and he also gets swerve on the ball which can make a huge difference

Darius Henderson wrote:

Better at defending as in makes some good blocks and on occasions I've seen him covers well when opposition are crossing from other side (something which A.Hole is v good at it must be said).

Lampard doesn't strike the ball that well IMO - he gets them on target but not THAT powerful IMO.

Sometimes if you can't break a team down with passing then a good hard strike with the laces on target can leave someone a tap in - eg Crespo v Man U in CL (Seedorf), Vucinic v Man U (Mancini) and now Taylor v Man U (Benjani).

Thanks for providing videos of the goals Agooner, much appreciated and I have to say I agree with you, but aren't these 2 the same?
