I'm old enough to accept defeat by fair means or when we are clearly the inferior team... But today was so surely self-inflicted it makes you wonder how seriously some of our players are taking this!
Yes we've done remarkably well to even be in this position in March, but any more of THAT defending and we'll be repeating last year all over again....
Last season still hurts like fuck, I don't wanna go there again, even if the likes of Walker, Ekotto or Defoe couldn't give a shit if we do! Both mistakes were the kind of moments you only see when Asian Syndicate money is on it, but I'd rather focus on the other 8 players who did their best to get us from 0-1 down to 2-1 up... THEY don't deserve to lose out on CL Qualification AGAIN due to some dipshits who can't concentrate for 90 consecutive minutes!
Aw fuck it, rant over, let's shut up shop on Thursday, and fucking Rape Fulham Sunday.... let them feel our wrath!
Still trying to understand why AVB picked the team he did. Only reason I can think of is that he wanted more defensive qualtities on the pitch and decided Livermore would be safer than Holtby. Still strange because it meant playing Dembele out of position. AVB can be too cautious at times.
Suarez has such a ... punchable face
Afters from the tangle they got in during the game.... Dembele also involved, but I don't think it was anything Evra'esque... Just Suarez being a general cunt, and someone having the CHEEK to point it out I guess!
Didn't even wait to get home, managed to hold off until 20 mins from home and haven't stopped since
Only concern for this game is the fact that Pool with have 11 men behind the ball
I'm a-okay with that. He's still young, but Walker seems much more passionate about attacking than he is about defending. We're probably hurting the team in the long term -- and harming his development -- if we don't consider advancing him up the pitch at some point.
