First time all season my captain has done a job for me - well done to the ever likeable Luis [;)]

Right then - here's the plan.

Arsenal to score 4 this afternoon - 2 for Ramsay, 2 for Giroud and 4 assists for Ozil.

Oh and Everton to score 5.

Thank-you.

I like everything you said, except for Everton scoring 5. I think it might 1 or 2 all. Arsenals luck might be running out I'm afraid.

I don't think they have been lucky at all - I hate to say it but they play superb, quick, intelligent football.

I agree they have been playing very well this season. I just keep remembering the past few seasons. Plus I don't think the other big teams are playing as well as they have been, like Man City, Chelsea, Spurs, but mostly Man U. Props to Southampton for a well played half season so far.
All that being said GO Arsenal!

I was under the impression that *only foreigners* dived and cheated

How's Liverpool doing (the team I ALWAYS supported in the Premir League)?

Are you referring to the Nigerian international Sam Sodje - one of those arrested? [:D]

Question: If you always supported Liverpool why do you not know how they are doing?

I used to watch much more football than nowadays [8D]

When I first read the news I thought they were talking about Sol Campbell (a fine player I liked). I don't know this Dj guy.

The other five arrested are Nigerian scammers too?

I have no idea who they are apart from Sodje and at least one Englishman - DJ Campbell. I was simply playing along with your little wheeze.

Came to realize that very few teams "hold the 0", so a goalie is not that big a deal anymore it seems. Same with defence (apart from those that score the occasional goal), so focus on forwards and midfields, and then just fill in the empty spaces...

Well that was cobleaux (apart from the result of course) - 5 players (almost half my team) played and 18 points. Seven goals in the match and NONE of my players scored. I demand a recount.

EDIT: What The....? Make that nine goals - and finally one of my boys scored!!

They might have been better off with a 5 man backline!

Not too good a round here either (until Suarez scores 5 tomorrow that is [:D]), goalie - 1 pt, 3 defenders 12 points, 3 out of 4 mifielders - 14 pts, 2 out of 3 strikers - 4 pts...

Only Yaya Toure and Coleman did well. My goalie just played 45 mins [:@]

Didn´t made Suarez my captain this gameday, because I thought, they are playing away against a team with a strong defense. Boy, was I wrong. For the second time the Spurs got hammered at home. I only hope Warspite didn´t watched this disaster live. Only good thing, I benched Dawson...
