Get's a penalty, without Crouch's head to aim at, Walters gets confused and hits it at Mignolet instead.

"In my career so far it's the most important goal. You score the goal in the last minute to win the title. You're not sure if that's ever going to happen in your career again. I wish I could tell you how I did it but I can't. I thought for all the world that Mario was going to have a go himself but he just moved it on one more and it fell at my feet and I just thought: 'Hit the target, hit it as hard as you can and hit the target.' And it went in."

Any 90 minutes would have been good, at least this game was entertaining and Liverpool look a decent side. Would like to see them play against anyone who decided more than 2 at the back would be an idea, but the bar hasn't been set too high for the next 379 games.

Before the penalty kick BT sport showed where Walters had hits his last 5 penalties. All to the keeper's right. So where would be a good place to take your next one given that keepers do prepare for having to face one and the coach does some research. As he's a scouser the question is is he a stupid one or a corrupt one?

Just watching Arse v Villa. Arse 1st goal, no Villa player actually took any part in trying to stop Arsenal from scoring. There was basically no defence. Awful.

Which shit-for-brains designed Villa's mostly-claret away kit? What's their third strip like, sky blue?

I'm watching it on mute because my wife is watching a shit TV show on her iPad. Was The Ox onside when the ball was played? Looked off to me but it might've been the camera angle. Actually, I'm only about 70% sure it was The Ox.

That was a bit naughty from Giroud. The other way around and we'd have seen a yellow given I bet.

Didn't see any problem. Some clown dived in & missed the ball, then Arse ran straight down the wing unattended, then hit a straight ball into Giroud, who Villa left completely unmarked to tap the ball in.

Arse defence as good as ever.

Nailed on.

I thought initially the ref did great by playing advantage, then giving the pen, but it was a red, deffo.

Sczezny (sic) almost chopped him in half there.

Big Bent has just bagged me my first meaningful fantasy points. Good lad.

I thought the new rule this season was if it's a penalty and professional foul, it's a yellow now.

I didn't think it was that bad a penalty, just an excellent save. At any rate it was better than Benteke's effort although the jammy bastard scored off the rebound
