Chelsea 0-2 Liverpool - Pressure would be mounting on AVB

Cardiff 2-0 Blackburn - Rovers woes continue


Who would seriously take on the chavski job if AVB is shown the door? Poisoned chalice to the max.

LOL at Rovers!

Reckon they will be seeing a fair bit more of Cardiff next year :lol:

Rovers boss Steve Kean has come out and said he "forfeited" todays game to concentrate on the league. He took a under strength side into the match hoping they would lose.
Im sure Rovers fans would be happy hearing that, could be their only chance of silverware this season

Rumour is that Samir Nasri was involved in a bust up with ex team mate Emmanuel Frimpong in the tunnel after the match

The overhead camera showed it to be nothing more than a game of "aerial Frimpong"

Bellers wears his heart on his sleeve, which always guarantee's something .. Obviously he's a fair drop in class on Torres, but I've always thought he gives something on the park and was disappointed to see him transferred last time he was with us.

I seriously thought we'd see the world class Torres this season, pretty happy that we haven't yet and hope we don't.

Doesnt work hard enough and is very lazy. Hernandez hasnt helped his cause either, Hernandez was brought in as a project player and backup but his great form has seen him push ahead of Berba in the pecking order. I reckon he will be gone in January unless we cop a heap of injuries

Cheers mate, about what I'd thought ... Such an incredible talent, but lazy and moody.

Pity, would make a cracker final.
The semis are over 2 legs so should be very interesting, hopefully you can bruise a few of them for us

Looks like Palace or Cardiff will be playing in Europe next season with the Carling Cup winner guaranteed a spot.
You would think City and Liverpool would both finish in top 6 so the other spot would be given to the Carling Cup runner up

Been brewing for a while. Frimpong tweeted some poor remarks about Nasri when he left and yesterday after the match ended their were some words exchanged and Frimpong was on camera with some one finger salutes. Then in the tunnel there was more heated words and a shove or two. Arsenal have denied any physical contact occured but a witness said there was a shoving match. The FA is not laying charges

considering when nasri left us and the comments made, i wouldnt have been surpirsed that all of the arsenal team didnt do something to nasri.
some of nasris words when he left were - Arsenal wont win a game without me (including fabregas if he was still there) and they will be relegated . i had my away shirt from last years season with Nasri on the back, its a shame i wasted my money on that money grabbing greedy little piece of work.
I dont have anything against his ability as he is a great player and played well for us when he was at arsenal, but his words when he left made me say good ridance and hope the non first team football at man city for you goes well :)

Yep I remember making a comment about how much class Fabregas had compared to Nasri when they departed.

Pretty happy with that draw, Cardiff have a good chance of getting smashed in the Final by City now. :lol:

Even though Liverpool vs Cardiff would be interesting with the two Gerrards doing battle.

Not that Palace will be a pushover...
