It is now time to switch to a new Money AM football blog as the world cup is now over and we all look to the future.....World cup 2010 is over, Bravo Espana, and Forlan, once again and bring on the new season !.....I never expected the last thread to be such a success...thanks all.... so this new one might go on for years without the need to edit the title...we shall see...

If you saw how bad Burnley were you'd be in hiding too , we scored 4 and hit the woodwork 3 times :-)

Arsenal ; 4-0 down...can't see Arsene Wenger lasting much longer.....much respected manager but it has not been great for the last few years....lack of british players to me...it's all very well having all these foreign players but do they blend into a great team ?...not really......

4-1 now....

4-2...4-3...4-4....There..now didn't I say I knew he could motivate people.................................................................................................................................................strewth.......

4-5......I just don't believe it.....

I don't think think this has ever been done before...not in the league cup anyway..........4-4...Germany-Sweden...not long ago.....that was amazing enough....

Magic potion at halftime.....

Well..if the Gunners win this ...hats off to them.....

5-5 now 116 minutes - I bet there is one hell of an atmosphere at the game.

7-5 :-)

Amazing!

and what excellent prediction skills demonstrated by RF

Oh...cheers Joe Say......it is time the Gunners won something otherwise I fear AW will get the chop !....but that game just shows how poor the defensive play is in this country...

"....but that game just shows how poor the defensive play is in this country..." Will people stop going on about defenses around here.. Some of us are rather sensitive about such things -):

.. Right, where is he?

Blimey Stan - did you walk home? :-)

No way should a good side let in five goals....it should not happen.....anyway...going for a Juventus win.... naaaa...

It's easy enough getting into some of our colonies Skinny.. but not so getting out -):

Got a bit of a shock on my return, pleasant in ways but it has needed time to attend to.

"No way should a good side let in five goals....it should not happen"

We didn't RF, Only let in 4 .. 3 lucky breakaways and 1. own goal -):

lol

welcome back Stan

Chelsea seem to have a habit of shooting themselves in boh feet.

No idea if Clattenberg is guilty of the alleged comments, if proven true he will no doubt receive the appropriate sanctions. But it's clear referees are subjected to abuse from players during matches, which in the good old days was regarded as dissent and the player booked. Now it seems to be accepted and ignored. (I'm afraid to say). So from where I'm sitting the Chelsea claim is very much pot calling kettle and smacks of sour grapes. I doubt they will be getting any favours from the rest of the Premiership refs that's for sure.

I thought the decision to send off Ivanovic was 100% correct. I couldn't see how he could be sure Torres dived, so to book him was probably wrong. Mind you, Torres should have received a red card for the assault on Cleverly. As for the winning goal, offside, but Clattenberg had to rely on the assistant so couldn't be blamed for that.

All in all, another mess that Chelsea are once again at the centre of.

Chelski players falling over for sweet fa has been part of their game for years , tough bloody crap if it's come back to bite them for once.

As for the ref I really don't give a sh*te what he said cos if some of those over rated over paid foreign tw*ts who "grace" the EPL with their presence ever came up against a ref from another sport the foul mouthed gits would be down to 5-a-side by half time.

Hope they throw the book at Chelski wen he gets cleared.
