Sunderland v Newcastle. seems like a proper derby with tackles flying both ways.
Larsson handled the ball on goal line after a corner, Webb & linesman missed it completely. should've been a penalty and red there.
Joey was furious and it looked pretty hilarious.

And apparently Nasri will start for Arse. Not that it means anything though.

[ashton287]

bad challenge that was.

The circus is back in town, joey and his clown friends always bring a smile to my face.

Interesting stat shown by Sky Sports ahead of the Liverpool/Arse game, net transfer spending for this summer, we're third with around 32m behind second placed RAGs (didnt catch their net total) and first placed Liverpool (somewhere around 50m net)

[Beefymcfc]

Twat's! Trust the Dippers to leave Saurez on the bench when I've stuck him in my FT; watch Carroll bad an hat-trick!

How's that work, we spent 38 on aguero alone then savic and clichy were 7 mil each weren't they?.

[ashton287]

Nasri starting for arse,

Switching newcastle off now and hoping for a good game here.

[Dameerto]

They didn't say. It was just a table with our three net totals in it (and they were focusing on Liverpool)

[Mark (Blue Army)]

Still can't beleave Arsenal have played Nasri, if he gets injured they can forget about getting 25M

[Dameerto]

Song must have got a retrospective red, he's banned for three matches (must have missed it if it was on here recently)

[Beefymcfc]

Not heard any booing for Nasri yet but there's still time.

Koscielny sick-note's been pulled out again. Looks like the Arse have real problems at the back.

Tuesday it was heard, I think.

[Dameerto]

they've got sodall defensive cover on the bench too, talk about threadbare

[Mark (Blue Army)]

Not looking good for Arsenal at the moment.

[Mark (Blue Army)]

Great header from Carroll, great save aswell

[Ted Hughes]

Good job Liverpool are shit.

How the fuck can a club like Arsenal have 2 injury prone CB's & only a 12 year old kid as replacement? Money is no excuse, they can afford several reserve CB's. Wenger is a wanker.

[aaron bond]

Arsenal doing zonal marking???

Despite the bad rep it got because of Liverpool's piss-poor attempts to implement it and the general media dislike towards it, do you think Wenger has noticed that the Prem's best defence does it and has decided to copy???

[Mark (Blue Army)]

What a run from Nasri.

[Esky]

That Nasri doesn't look half bad.

Seems odd that Arsenal would shift to zonal when they are two debutants in their back four (and their first choice right back is playing on the left).

[Beefymcfc]

Nice run and shot from Nasri, a yard wide.

How does Carroll get away with dragging players here, there and everywhere?

I thought only negative teams did that.
