Arsenal shit? We jump above you with a win tonight. If we’re shit what does that make you? :lol:

Ha you wish. Clarets to sit proudly above both north London ‘giants’ come tea time Sunday. :lol:

I’m struggling to think of two bigger under achievers than Spurs and Arsenal considering the size of both clubs.



Ok, so I was a fortnight early. Lol
Clarets sit proudly 4th in a CL spot tonight looking down on Liverpool, Spurs and Arsenal

:lol: :lol:


Terrible game tonight. Terrible conditions for both teams
Never going to be pretty in that weather but once we’d soaked up Stokes opening pressure we were never threatened. Stoke are just rough and tumble, a typical Mark Hughes team. They played direct and long looking for Crouch, (37 and still going in the EPL, fair do’s to him too. Good honest player and perfect for Hughes’ style of play). Some of the tackles were a bit OTT from Stoke considering the wet conditions and the ref compensated for it.
Great strike from BARNES finishing off the best move of the night.
Another 3 points, another step to safety. 100/1 now to be relegated from 5/4 at the start of the season.

Workmanlike win for Spurs with a nice fluke goal to kick things off. Liverpool and Arsenal only managed draws so we jump back above them but not for long as we have City next.

City were very good but they were made to look better by a woeful Spurs effort who seemed more interested in trying to do as much damage to the City players as they could.

Having said that, there were some shocking calls today. When the hell will they allow video and 3rd refs and challenges like in cricket and gridiron. Huddersfield’s goal was so offside it was a joke.
Both sendings off in the Watford game were a nonsense and how many penalties were awarded for dives. ******* nonsense.

Just watched the 8 minutes when 4 goals were scored, very entertaining!
Liverpool look like road workers in that kit.

Your defense was actually set up quite well. Your LB had no awareness of Sanchez coming from behind. Second goal was a ripper although not sure why Mignolet didn’t go two hands. Third goal cut apart by brilliant run and back flick by Ozil and Lacazette.

Arsenal on the other hand defensive shambles

First two goals were terrible, Gomez asleep at far post and as good as Xhaka's hit was, Mignolet should have saved it ... Most Liverpool fans (biased or not I dont know) thought we should have been 3-zip up at the break.
