Weekend's 'Other' Matches

[Frogfish]

Chelsea 0-0 Burnley after 10 mins.

Burnley just spurned a GOLDEN chance to score (Lampard gave the ball away 20 yds out). However Anelka also fucked up a 1 on 1 so honours even in that regard.
I am going to support Burnley as my 2nd PL team this season in the hope they stay up - they really give it a go and I admire their guts.

Blackburn v West Ham
Chelsea v Burnley
Man Utd v Arsenal

Let me rephrase before you make something of that flippant comment ! ;D

I hope they stay up they are most certainly not a '10 man behind the ball' type team. They try to play good football and take the attack to their opponents whenever they can. They will lose this by 2, 3 or 4 but you've got to give them credit for their attitude.

 

[SaintGeorge67]

Agreed. There are certainly other teams I'd rather see go down, and it would be funny if they beat Blackburn.

 

[Frogfish]

Jenson makes another good save - he looks a bit 'beefy' but he's done very well so far. Ballack & Drogba pulling their defence all over the place though.

Chelsea 1-0 - Anelka

 

[Frogfish]

It had been coming but still rather bad luck on Burnley conceding in the 2nd minute of 2 mins injury time.

Drgoba burned them again on the right this time and his low cross was perfect, the CB couldn't get the ball clear as he slid in with Anelka who had the last touch.

 

[livvy145]

Bollock makes it 2-0

 

[livvy145]

Fantastic goal by A. Hole

3-0

 

[Frogfish]

Chelsea tearing Burnley apart now .. Anelka hits the bar / post. With almost 40 mins remaining this could easily end up as very embarrassing for Burnely.

Not many goals around...

Anyone got a stream for this game?

 

[Frogfish]

Evra into the book too (along with Song earlier).

Arsenal's movement and passing is causing United problems, Van Persie also had a great chance. Whilst United look dangerous on the break, Evra's pace especially is causing problems for Arsenal.

 

[HC]

It's been a dull match so far.

Fletcher half chance and one for Robin and Arshavin.

Sorry Bunny - I'm watching the Sky broadcast on Chinese TV.

 

[HC]

Utd had a great chance to break quickly and make something, sloppy pass allows gooners to get back.

 

[livvy145]

What a goal by Arshavin

haha

 

[HC]

Arshavin SCREAMER!

 

[dee]

WHAT A SCREAMER!!!!

Arseshaving 0-1

 

[FoxForceFive]

What a GOAL!

Arshavin. Brilliant.

 

[Frogfish]

What a goal from Arshavin !!!!

 

[HC]

Fucking hell, he thumps that.

 

[TheBunnyman]

Soon as I find a stream, Arsenal score! Yay!

 

[HC]

Seconds before that Fletcher made a very nice,hard last ditch tackle to deny him.

You clearly can't keep this Russian down

 

[Frogfish]

oooh Foster had both hands on that ... should have saved it. However you give Arshavin room to shoot at your peril.

Imagine our team with him on our left *cries*

Just seen the replay ... Fletcher didn't get within 3 feet of the ball ! As clear a penalty as you will EVER see.

 

[Paddy]

Foster should have saved that.

 

[HC]

Yeah, well at the time, I like everyone else thought it was clean.

 

[HC]

fucking hell Vidic, toe pokes the ball from 6 yards out, should've made better contact.

Fletcher strike Mk II
