See what happens, don't really believe it myself. He's been great for us so far this season too.

How good were we yesterday? Not often you can say you should have beaten Manure by 2 or 3, but that is the case today.

Gutted we didn't get the three points, but hell, we looked bloody good!

Gutted that we've been playing great and I'm missing it all hehe

Glad we're playing well though, we just need to play as well as we do against the big teams against the teams in and around us in the league.

I'll have 6 MOTD to watch when I get back, should be entertaining biggrin

So where abouts are you then fella?

At times we look bloody good - just need to get that consistency so we look like that every time we turn out...

Edited 'cos I can't spell, doh....

I'm currently in Denmark again, it's the only place I can get on the internet. We've been going between Denmark, Finland and Sweden but the longest we're in port is usually Finland frown

I don't think Bent will start, I'd like him to get more than ten minutes though, at least half an hour.

Well I hope you were back in the UK for yesterday's game? Maybe our luck is changing, as I think we were lucky to get all three points, but hey I'll take them from anywhere!

Big one next week!

I'm not back in the UK till the 11th of November, so I miss next Sunday's derby game with the scum unfortunately, I think I'll miss both of them this season! I heard Gyan looked good when he came on, although we were lucky with a Richard Dunne own goal. I see our defensive record is the second best in the league, Titus Bramble has made one hell of a difference!

Indeed, we're looking difficult to beat - Bramble I think has made a huge difference - and the allegations/potential charges he was facing were dropped this week so that should keep his mind on the important stuff!

Glad to hear Bramble has been cleared, keep his mind on the football!

I hate missing the derby game, perhaps a broken leg this week would get me home sooner scratchchin

Got to be happy with that result. Turner played very well I thought.
Gyan despite not seeing much of the ball is a class act.

Can't wait to see Bent/Gyan up front.

To right - although the ref did have a 'mare - making poor decisons in both directions - but picking up the odd win and a bunch of draws away from home should give us a decent foundation to build on our home form.

It's a shame injuries prevent us from fielding our consisten best eleven....

Well I'm home, so I can finally watch some football. I watched the Stoke game and thought we had a bit of luck, same with the spurs game, but we were due some IMO.

Chelsea are our bogey team though, I can't see us winning (despite putting that down in the prediction thread) but defensively, apart from one ... ehem... minor blip, we've been a class act, we just need score more goals so hopefully Gyan can cause a nuisance of himself in the Chelsea box biggrin

Henderson in contention for the France friendly too, chuffed for the lad, wish I was in his position!

I hope Bruce really has a go at Chelsea. I know he will go for a 4-5-1 again but I'd really like to see a 4-4-2 formation.

Saying that....it would probably mean a Welbeck/Gyan partnership up front.

Anyone know what's happened to Angeleri? Does he exist?

Fitness is an issue with Angeleri, as far as I'm aware anyway.

With Chelsea losing Ray Wilkins we could have a bit of a mental edge going into the game.

Chelski haven't conceded at home in something like 9 games -so it's about time someone scored there - step forward one Mr A Gyan... hehe
