For about 20mins or so i think.

Well this game will tell us whether we really are going to be challenging for the title this season. Good result takes us 2nd. There are no excuses anymore, no hard fixture list. Time to stand up and be counted.

What do you make of the team Al?

Come on Torres and the crow! F*** them up!

What do you make of the team Al?

I would have preferred Masher in for Momo but I like the idea of Voronin up with Torres. Looking forward to see Babel for a full game. Its an attacking line up (as best he can do without SG)

I agree, too many times we've tripped up in games like these that we are expected to win. They have to be won if we're ever going to win the league.

Im not overly inspired by that line-up it has to be said.

I like that lineup,considering the opposition. I would probably rather have Crouch on the bench than kuyt but no biggie.

I'm looking forward to this one I tell you!

Getting Austar and Setanta next month so no ****ing about reading match updates... I do appreciate the people who write them up though!

Has anyone considered using Twitter to broadcast written commentary? You can then download an app that has live updates. It's much like free broadcast SMS plus you can receive it on your phone too.

Black kit. Mmmmmm Not ideal in sunny conditions.

Who would you have preferred?

[RedSwede]

He'll ****ing well do what Rafa tells him to do. End of.

Id be pretty disapointed with crouch if he wasn´t fuming...

Masch played 90 min against norway on weds.

[Gaz]

1st chance after 35 seconds, we're going to batter these today

[Kenneth]

So close to 1-0 liverpool in the first minute.
