Summerbee for those who missed it.


Is James McCarthy playing, Bandage

Olympic West Ham fighting back at West Brom.

He is indeed. They were doing nothing other than sitting deep and keeping a defensive shape for most of the half so he wasn’t standing out at all. They’ve had a better spell in the last ten minutes and got the goal and he’s been more prominent on the ball.

West Ham level now.

Just saw West Ham’s second goal today. That’s possibly the worst defending of a set piece I’ve ever seen. West Brom forgot to mark Piquionne and the one defender who could intervene between Piquionne and Cole managed to fall over himself.

Some amount of shit about Rooney’s goal on motd. If it was Hugo Rodallega there wouldn’t be a word about it.

Barely passable impression of Hugo Sanchez

D+

It was absolutely class. Not many guys would have the ability to get it, and certainly not Rodallega.

Rooney’s goal wasn’t even the best volley of the day

Some guys try too hard to go against the grain.

Take your own advice Kev, more people will take you seriously

Fuck you Bandage, you’re constantly at this shit

Good to see MOTD2 aren’t dedicating too much of th show to Rooney’s goal :rolleyes:

Berbatovs goal against Liverpool was better but Rooneys is always going to be hyped up more because hes English*

*I am part of the hype.

Some goal from Rooney. Only saw bits and pieces of it but felt at the time that if a winner was coming it would be City. The deflection on the cross wrongfooted Kompany who was superb but some finish in fairness.

City miss Nigel de Jong badly when injured or suspended. They tend to drop a lot of points when he is out of the side.

I’m considering doing a Bandage on it and withdrawing support for the Villa until Houllier is sacked. Gabby left wing, Downing right wing, Young at striker - doesnt make any sense.

Ciaran Clark had a nightmare at left back too worryingly. Ashley Young has morphed into a McGeady type player. Zero end product and just a general prick on the pitch with his ridiculous snood.

great goal by Rooney alright. great technique and it ended up in the top corner.

but my God there is some amount of overhype about it. talks about it being the best goal ever scored. bloody hell. I actually thought Meireles goal against Wolves was a better goal, but I suppose because a) he isnt English, B) it was a shit non event game, and c) it was Liverpool who are shit, it wont get goal of the season. The amount of fawning over Rooney now, and he after being shit all year. as good a goal and all it was, if I was a Utd supporter I’d prefer him to be scoring ten shitty goals to his one spectacular goal. He has been shite enough since his contract got re newed. Prob just coincidence more than anything, as he has been struggling with injuries too.

:rolleyes:

Rooney is the best player in the world bar none…FACT!!!

:angry: godamit. I could have argued with you there, but you had to go and say FACT. The end of any debate. <_<
