Owen Coyle going nuts about the Arsenal equaliser. Bad tackle by Gallas that left one of their players out and Arsenal didn’t kick the ball out.
Uniteds turn on Saturday. 
Ankle breaker by Gallas there.
Jaaskelainen very poor for the first two goals.
Just saw it there on Sky. Nasty by Gallas. Over the top. Definite red card I’d say. Tough on Bolton that.
Arsenal’s next four matches:
Aston Villa (a)
Man Utd (h)
Chelsea (a)
Liverpool (h)
If MON plays the same X1 as he has for the last 4 games Arsenal will beat Villa easily.
[quote=“Bandage”]Rocko would be seething if he were watching 'Pool/Spurs with Gray and Tyler proclaiming that Defoe’s disallowed goal was legitimate as it was a new phase of play when the Greek hun touched the ball.
To paraphrase the nerd Rocko’s quoting of laws from a similar incident in a Spanish game a few weeks ago:[/QUOTE]
Whatever about him being on/offside, he fouled the keeper…
Apologies if this has been posted already:
could you provide the context for that “rant” & clarify the relevance of it
Could you?
could I what?
Exactly

Quality rant
Tevez cuts loose
[B]Carlos Tevez has launched an incredible fresh attack on Gary Neville, accusing his former team-mate of being an “boot licking moron” following their confrontation during the Manchester derby on Tuesday night.
The Manchester City striker described his side’s 2-1 victory as “revenge” and insisted that his provocative goal celebration was directed only at Neville and not Alex Ferguson or the United fans, joking: “Ferguson loves me.”
[/B]
Before the game, the United right-back had announced that Tevez was “not worth” the 25m it would have cost his club in the summer to keep him. Tevez was so incensed that he made a gesture towards Neville after scoring his first goal from the penalty spot, to which the England veteran responded by flashing his middle finger.
Speaking in a radio interview on ESPN Argentina, Tevez said: "My celebration was directed at Gary Neville. He acted like a complete sock-sucker [boot-licker] when he said I wasn’t worth 25m just to suck up to the manager. I don’t know what the hell that idiot is talking about me for. I never said anything about him.
"I will never show a lack of respect towards anyone. Just as I was running off to celebrate the penalty I had scored, I came across Gary and I said to myself: “Shut your trap, keep quiet”. I didn’t go overboard in my celebration and it was directed at Gary, not at Ferguson and not at the fans.
“I think he did the wrong thing because I was his team-mate and I never said anything bad about him. He was saying that Ferguson was right when he said that I wasn’t worth 25m, when he was saying this and that … I always respected Neville.”
Despite playing in England for four years, the Argentinian still has difficulty speaking English. His comments yesterday to the British media accusing Neville of being “disrespectful” were released through his representatives and had a measure of calm.
But speaking in his native tongue, Tevez made his feelings about Neville clear. "I was at lunch with the players in the team hotel and all the papers were laid out. I read them – well, ‘read them’, obviously I don’t read [English].
"My team-mates were telling me about it and asking what I thought. And I wondered to myself: what’s the tarado [moron] talking about me for when I never said anything about him, when there was never any [issue] with us. It was a lack of respect for a compaero [fellow footballer], aside of the fact that we had won a lot of things together.
“You have to do your talking on the pitch. I don’t talk much in England – mainly because of the language. I don’t like to get involved in conflict. I’m happy because I know what I am. Thank God I had the chance to get revenge with City, although there is still the second leg to come,” he added, concluding with a joke: “I know that Ferguson loves me, that’s why he always talks about me, ha ha.”
There was a warning for United too, as Tevez said: “There are differences between the two teams. Manchester United is a huge team in the city, everyone knows that. But City are making giant strides.”
The Argentinian also admitted that, while he is enjoying his football at City, he does not expect to be there for the rest of his career and is struggling with life in England.
“Things are going well for me; the goals are coming. I’m in good shape, I have avoided injuries and that really helps,” he said. "As a kid I would never have imagined that I would live in England for four years. I am very happy and contented that my daughter is growing up in a country as developed as this one. But the truth is that it’s very, very hard for me to live here, so far away from my loved ones.
"This is my fourth year but I’m not exactly an example of how to learn English; I just can’t get it into my head. I’m learning hardly anything, truth be told. I don’t go out much, I spent most of my time at home.
“My daughter just brought me a Boca Juniors shirt and she wants me to join Boca. I am a Boca fan and I know I’ll go back one day but I don’t know when.”

I can imagine his team mates winding him up alright. Ah man look what that cunt is after saying about your mother etc…
You think his team mates can read?
Villa being linked strongly with Kris Boyd. Looks like it will be a summer Bosman. Granted the lad must be a decent finisher and Villa will always create chances but this stinks of an unbelievable lack of ambition. Does MON realise that there is actually life outside the UK you would have to wonder? Chris Iwelumo was getting his game at International level ahead of this clown recently. If this happens expect Boyd to follow the route taken by Shaun Maloney. Come to Villa on a free and we will sell him back after about a year to Glasgow for half a million or so.
Maybe he’s secretly trying to fuck up Rangers.
