I like Swansea, lovely team to watch. Stuck to their footballing principles as a club right through the leagues.

Despite our Brenda being given the credit for it, it was in fact Roberto Martinez who revolutionised the club. From top to bottom when they came from the brink, as a unit Swansea have stuck by their principles

What has happened to Spuds?

What has happened to Spuds?

They are shit. Spent absolute fortunes and gone through countless managers to get precisely fucking nowhere.

Hate the twats

Newcastle also shite,another win for the rags next week.

Newcastle have not impressed but still in a better position than Sunderland based on what I have seen. They played a good Swansea team as well. Sunderland on the other hand looks like they have nothing but it is still early. Both teams at the moment do look like they will be fighting relegation but I think Newcastle is more likely to turn things around than Sunderland.

What has happened to Spuds?

What do you mean?

Indeed. It was a baffling question. That's what Spurs always do. As long as I can remember, Spurs always gave the impression that they could be got at. That they have a soft underbelly, if you like. Nothing new there.

How does Garth crooks still have a job?

He really is a patronising fat ****

 

[Worst Case Ontario]

Hahaha fuck of Spurs you big, big top4 club. Self-righteous pricks

 

[journolud]

What has happened to Spuds?

Right off the boil and well mashed. I expected them to be better seeing what the manager did at Southampton but I think he might have had his chips. They are a croquette of shit

I'm proud of us today with that comeback, and given diouf missed two sitters we really should have won.

We have shipped out Begovic and Z'nonzie, and Shawcross is out for months after an operation on his back. That is the spine of last seasons squad all out...yet we still show that kind of mettle.

Also, hughes made exactly the right subs ireland was phenomenal, and joselu tricky. Arnautovic started really showing his class last season, and again in that game he was fantastic. Found it laughable that shaqiri couldn't play because he was banned for one italian cup game(but was not banned from italian league games), yet is not allowed to play a league game over here? Why not banned from cup game instead?

Anyway pleased with our result.

I'd be careful with that logic. Spurs created two tremendous chances at end of 1st half (Eriksen with a ridiculous long pass forward and then Kane with a lobbed through ball as well) which easily could have been goals. Stoke were very good and Ireland was unreal for about 15 minutes there. I think Shaqiri will really make them a not fun team to play against,he's going to create space for Arnautovic. Who seems like a good player but he always wants to take a man on, sometimes to a fault. A simple pass and move would benefit him more, like the chance in the 2nd half where he flashed across goal.
