itt liverpool not winning things; sandbox i love football

IK, you are right about Fellaini, he was by far the best Everton player. I was really underwhelmed by their defending attitude, but thinking about it again, I just don't think Everton can do any better.

Damn, RVP's goal was magnificent.

It's funny, but when Everton took Saha off and replaced him with Distin they suddenly began matching Arsenal. They'd been defensive 'til then, but by pushing Fellaini from a Lucas role to an Adebayor role they became far more threatening. Maybe simply because Fellaini can win and hold the ball - Saha did nothing.

EyeOfTheGuy on Twitter: "Alex Song must surely be recognised now as the best in his position in the league? World class again today."

didn't know sam was on twitter.

i am but i only at 2 in the morning, liveblogging wrestling, so this isn't me.

tbh he didn't do much today. well except the ball for rvi for the goal.

i agree about fellaini. he's a remarkably odd player tho, 'adebayor as a defensive midfielder'. i think the only place he wld suit, if he were to make the step up, wld be united.

Benitez in the Sky Sports studio

this better be good, i'm in sick all weekend and i need some excitement.

coyf

valdes ffs

I think I defended Valdes at some point and I would like to apologize.

waht

looooooooooool

i know it's only gone three minutes but so far this is terrible football

Real still tried to fuck it up

GOALFLASH: Real Madrid 1-0 Barcelona (Benzema)

2100: Captains Casillas and Puyol have shaken hands, and so have Mourinho and Guardiola, with the Portuguese kneeling down theatrically at the entrance to the tunnel to greet his rival. We have lift-off...

i cannot find 1 bloody stream that works.

I guess you can't use Sopcast? It really is the way to go

Messi has only scored once a away from home this season. Big game bottler?

i was using sopcast!

Bloodzeed is what i use. All Sky streams, really reliable

someone mentioned a website where you could download games the other day? if they want to say it again, i'll dl it tomorrow.

Yeah that was me. Don't know what it was off hand but i'll find it for you

in case you missed it alexis just made it 1-1 thanks to a beautiful messi assist

this is good.

can't help but feel barca could do with a target man up front. they lack a 35m presence from free kicks.

That's better from Barca!

That's better from Barca (again)!

WTF...POMO? anyone watching on sky?

Barca aren't even playing near their best and still are 1-3 up. I expected more from Madrid tbh

Iniesta was great again though

to clarify my earlier comment, when benzema scooped that shot wide past higuain (i think) the sky commentator said to gerry armstrong: "pomo, gerry, pomo!" which sounded like "homo".

then he said "position of maximum opportunity" and gerry armstrong didn't raise any surprise at thsi, and his tone sounded like it was a stock phrase that everyone knew.

Yep, both me and my flatmate thought he said homo. Bizarre

I assume it's a regular catchphrase on Sky's Spanish coverage? Fuck knows

likewise, really one of the weirdest things i've ever heard watching a game.

when zlatan retires, ppl gonna finally cotton on to the beauty they missed while too busy complaining about him

think you're making a diff point? basically my flatmate and myself just had a lol during the game at how amazing it'd be to see andy carroll in a barca shirt.

would love Riise's free kick to have been on target just to see if Vorm would have saved it

al-habsi's save from brunt's booming shot was p cool

alexis sanchez's goal was class start to finish

ineista was amazing, lass reduced to wrestling him to the ground at one point

mourinho losing will never fail to fill me with joyful contentment

oh, and ronaldo was shit

still heart Mourinho, he just needs to drop these losers and get back in charge of a proper club

mccarthy out?

yes please

Don't be so fickle, NV. You can't suddenly start hating on Mick just because of one defeat.
