TFoA Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 How the hell does that happen? I thought Arsenal's shredding of Everton back in Matchday 1 was crazy, but this is ridiculous. 9-1, what did Wigan just bring their reserves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saintsfan Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 How the hell does that happen? I thought Arsenal's shredding of Everton back in Matchday 1 was crazy, but this is ridiculous. 9-1, what did Wigan just bring their reserves? I'll talk more about it in my weekly round up, but winning 9-1 is crazy. Wigan are very inconsistent, especially away from the DW this season, and Spurs really are a serious contender for a Champions League spot. 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saintsfan Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 ***Saintsfan's weekly round up***Performance of the week- Spurs become only the second team to score 9 goals in a game in the EPL era, and Jermaine Defoe becomes the third player to score 5 on a game, and the only player to score 5 in a half. Wigan's only goal came from an Henry-style handball. Generally a satisfying week for Spurs fans as Sunderland get a win over Arsenal. Manager most annoying Saintsfan with post match comments this week- Arsene Wenger. Arsenal lose, apparently Sunderland didn't trouble the Arsenal keeper. Hey Arsene your team didn't score, can't win a game without scoring.Dissapointment of the week- Arsenal beat out Wigan here, because if the Gunners have got title aspirations going to Sunderland on a cold, wet, windy day and winning are the kind of results you need to get, sometimes more than the impressive 4-0 wins against teams in the relegation zone. Managers under pressure this week- Rafa Benitez has a big week coming up with a possible Champions League exit and a Merseyside Derby. Who knows what 2 defeats might mean. Gary Megson's Bolton are on a bad run again. Megson isn't a charasmatic enough guy to keep the fans onside for long on a bad run. (Phil Brown and Paul Hart might be more secure than they should be, both being with clubs in financial trouble.)Power rankings will be back next week. 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jkrdevil Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Liverpool has basically been knocked out of Champions League at the group stage. After Fiorentina beat Lyon 2-0 that puts Liverpool in a situation where they have to beat Fiorentina next week, hope Debrecen somehow beats Lyon, and somehow in those 2 games make a up a 6 goal differential to advance. Probably not going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saintsfan Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 Before we move on to European matters, P h have sacked manager Paul Harthttp://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/p/portsmouth/8377374.stmAnd Liverpool are out of the Champions League. The tiebreaker in the Champions League is not goal difference, but results of the games between the tied parties, and Liverpool came of the worst against Lyon, and cannot catch Fiorentina.

Don Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 Barcelona won El Classico thanks to a fantastic finish from Zlatan, great build up from Barca as well, that's why they're my favorite team to watch in Europe.It was a beautiful cross in from Dani Alves. The whole team played their asses off. When the man from Real got sent off they just gave up. Barca clamped down when Busquets got sent off. Great match to watch.

Saintsfan Posted November 30, 2009 Share Posted November 30, 2009 ***Saintsfans weekly EPL round up***Performance of the week- Chelsea winning 3-0 at Arsenal. Chelsea are beginning to look like the class of the league. If they can get through the African Nations Cup spell without too much damage, they must be the team to beat in the league now.The most annoying post match interview award is retained by Arsene Wenger for protesting about a disallowed goal after a foul on Chelsea keeper Petr Cech. The decision may have been 50/50 but if it had gone the other way, Wenger would not have seen the incident, guaranteed.Dissapointment of the season- Everton. Last years success story is this years plummeting stone. Managers under pressure- The hot seat on Merseyside has moved from Anfield to Goodison after Liverpool's Derby win. Megson and Brown saw there teams get needed victories. Some pressure on Mick McCarthy at Wolves after the drop down the table.Saintsfans EPL power rankings1 Chelsea2 Manchester United3 Arsenal4 Tottenham Hotspur5 Aston VillaBottom 520 Portsmouth19 Wolves18 Hull City17 Bolton Wanderers16 Everton 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
