Well I am here with sufficient alcohol inside me for my now weekly flogging for being a Gooner. come on you scousers I deserve it after gloating earlier in the season.

And I am going to watch us getting stuffed on MOTD tonight.

I know Peter Crouch is an odd stick to watch, and does not look like a premiership player, but you have to admire his results. I think I like him. And he is impossible to mark against in the air. It's just he always looks like a baby giraffe when he is on the ball.

More drink...............

I share your pain Marino, only because we saw off a gutsy Watford display with a 93rd minute goal and I'd have to take no end of deserved flak if Watford had held us at 0-0
I bet Valencia can't wait for Wednesdays match!!

But you still won though.
I liked Jose comment about Arsenal this week, when he said he wished he worked for a club that took defeat so well.

Been a red it was some relief too see us lot beat the gooners! But too score 4 against them was delightful after the last two defeats against
them. 3rd and 4th places are still up for grabs still i think.

Good on Crouchie for he's hat-trick, England could of done with him in the last 2 games!

Your Gooners took a proper doing, power to the 'Pool.

And you deserved it- Arsenal are way too up their own 'Arse' at times, and far too arrogant.

Another London club who are almost entirely foreign, money-driven and totally uncharismatic.

Sorry, Marino.

Top quality bloke too is Crouch.

Unlike some of the overpaid primadonnas that are now in the Premiership.

He was quality when he was at Southampton too!

No need to apologise fudgeflaps. I don't take Arsenal personally.

I think you are right, I wish they would stop thinking just because they play a great passing and tactical game does not mean they can forget the first simple rule of football.

Which is to get the ball in the net. (However it goes in).

Oh my head feels a little strange today. Wonder what I did last night. Must have been a dodgy prawn cocktail crisp.

and Liverpool aren't?! Amazing, the two sets of fans who moan the bloody most about other clubs buying the league are Man utd and Liverpool fans yet both clubs have paid more out for players than anyone else in recent years for over rated crap!

Well at least our over rated crap looks like winning the Premiership this year. Awesome performance yesterday against Blackburn after a poor first half to really notch it up a level. I think we'll only win this year if Scholes is playing for most of the games though, he makes such a difference.

By the way, I don't think Man U have spent more than Chelsea in recent years.
