2-1 to Bolton at Wigan, half-time now. Own goal/Reo-Coker gave us lead in 4th minute, they equalised through Diame's long range strike with 40 minutes gone (I missed that goal because of crappy internet streaming lag), but David N'Gog restored our lead just before half-time, keeping his cool to finish after Kevin Davies had stolen the ball from Steve Gohuri, as it stands we're out of the relegation zone. COME ON BOLTON!
 
oh dear, Kevin Davies just missed the chance to shut Wigan down.

Now I gotta hope Begovic keeps his clean sheet otherwise I'm gonna feel bad for not playing Al Habsi

We won it 5 times!
 
Finally a victory against Everton at home.Was tired of the continous draws for 5 years.Sturridge the MOTM for me.Hopefully a clean sheet too,we haven't had one in a while.

haha, 3-1 full time, same as us, but ours was away so it's better.
 
a win against one of the worst teams in the division, well done!

relegation candidates rely on picking up points against other relegation candidates, i believe it's what they call a six pointer. it's natural he'd be pleased!

the undefeated streak gets it's biggest challenge tomorrow - newcastle vs spurs should be a great game but i'm reasonably pessimistic. offer me a draw right now and i'll rip your hand off!
 
There's a reason we drew with Everton for five years Bartman.Their defense is solid and hard to break.Even Man United could only beat them 2-0 at Old Trafford last season.No way yours was 'better'

EDIT:My memory is a little shaky so i'm not sure if it was 2-0 or 1-0 but I remember it was one of 'em.
 
hehe
liverpool do go on about thier history, past is then now is now, liverpool are winning nowt :P
and is the answer for who is going down arsenal?
 
Yeah Van Persie that's the way!

edit: What are these beautiful scenes I'm seeing? Walcott is playing in through the middle and Van Persie having a free role in the midfield! And he is absolutely unplayable right now, his first touch has been like Henry at his peak!
 
Superb free kick.Let's get it Sunderland.Trade your relegation fears to Arsenal while you're at it.
 
I'd take that. Much rather concede wonder strikes than comical own goals.

Positives: Van Persie looking very sharp, Rosicky looking like a little magician again, Gervinho unplayable at times. Szczesny world class goalie. Walcott playing through the middle at times! Also Gibbs looks very comfortable, don't think I've ever seen him make a mistake yet in his short career so far.

Negatives: Koscielny and Jenkinson are sunday league footballers and they've shown it again and again... Arteta looks like he hasn't got out of bed.

Overall the defence just needs to concentrate more and stop letting random balls over the top get through them. Should be a comfortable win if we keep playing the way we have.
