Yeah, I'm not 100% sold it's real, but I know the last one they did with Rooney was real because there's another video that shows the making of it where he put his first 2 attempts through the small opening right above the camera.

These guys have amazing accuracy. When Chelsea was in CA, I was watching Drogba during practice just put every ball in the same corner of the goal. When there is no one defending them and they have time to shoot, they can be pretty accurate.

............and we go top again. The scouser scum is 5 pts behind even with two games in hand, since they have a propensity for drawing, I'm now confident it'll be between us and the arse for the league this year

well, ManU certainly wasn't going to only score one goal every game for the whole year.

Could be longer than you think, as Sunderland seems to fancy 5 or 6 themselves.

Second half was a good game could have gone either way, Arsenals class showed in the end. But very happy with the performance and bodes well for the season, have been to Old Trafford and the Emirates and havent had a kicking like Derby had.

Jones is looking a decent buy as well plus talk of us getting Evan and Simpson form Man Utd in January I do feel we have enough to stay up.

Can't believe Liverpool got away with that Robbery yesterday at Anfield....

Still not so bad from the Spurs...they need to play like that every week...

We need Robinson to get some confidence again.....its amazing how much the team panics at his extreme lack of confidence in his ability at present !

Sven was a great club coach, did better than I expected for England, and is once again a great club coach. Not his fault that British football fans are crazy fickle.

His England record:
2002 World Cup - loses in quarter finals to eventual champion Brazil
2004 European Champ - loses in quarter final to host Portugal (on penalties)
2007 World Cup - loses in quarter finals to Portugal (on penalties)

One deserved loss (to the 02 Brazil squad), and two coin flips (the PK losses) - and for this he's a crappy manager? In 5 years in charge of England, he lost 5 games. Like I said...British football fans are off the chart. So saying, they're right about Paul Robinson. He's crap and needs to be dropped.

'Great' is debatable. He's had mixed success overall, he also had ridiculous amounts of money to spend at Lazio.

Whilst not the godawful England manager some peope would have you believe, that's simplifying it a great deal, he had plenty of flaws.

2002 we just went out so limply, didn't even manage a shot on target against 10 men. Gave him the benefit of the doubt at the time after what he had achieved previously.

2004 scored early and tried to defend a 1-0 lead against a skilful team by continually handing the ball right back to them. The decision to bring on Vassell instead of Heskey if all we were going to do is hump long balls forward for 80 mins is baffling.

His tactical decisions in the middle of games were pretty weak and his inability to drop any big names regardless of form was just infuriating. It just felt like the last two years were a total waste. 2006 we played [censored] football throughout, never looked like beating a big side and went out as soon as we met one.

Not being English, I still have to agree with everything Medgar said. Under Sven, England were basically Spain with shorter hair.

Robinson is garbage, plain and simple.

I saw a game from a few years ago when he was with Leeds. He looked so much more fit then he does now. Spurs backline would probably play much better with someone else back there. If Jol is still there in January, he should move for a keeper ASAP.

Looks like the Hawks missed their wakeup call as well.

Anyway, in the Tottenham/Liverpool game, why was Tottenham forced to play 10 men in injury time? The announcers were stating "what a stupid rule" etc., but I didn't catch the ruling.

Anyone?
