Arbeloa

[Jack D Rips]

Candidate for stupidest thread ever.

Hindsight at the highest level. Did you see Finnan play against Fulham on Saturday. He was crap. I like Finnan but Im afraid hes finished

by the way did any of the people here criticising Arbeloa submit their teams prior to the match

bull****, why? Did he tell or physically force Riise to head the ball into the net.

I've never understood why Arbeloa is given a hard time from supporters he's done nothing but a good job here. It's funny how so many people will get on someones back for when it's a player they aren't fond of but make excuses for the same mistakes that players which are proffered do.

Kalou should never been allowed that much time and space, especially in the 94th minute! If the stupid cross never came in, then Riise would not have stupidly headed the ball in. I ask you this, how can a professional footballer not know the rules of football? And I say this because he was playing the offside tap on a throw in. watch it again. It's painful seeing someone make such a stupid mistake.

Arbeloa didn't have a great game but he wasn't poor by any stretch. As for changing the defence around, it's clear that Hyypia always struggles with Drogba, thats why he didn't play - and to be fair to Carragher and Skrtel they coped pretty well with the big, cheating scumbag.
