Just watched Everton - Newcastle, amazingly dramatic game. Everton were robbed of two good goals by the referee, and a few other shocking decisions too for both teams. Amazing goals, amazing saves, great Everton play and Newcastle was route 1 + Ben Arfa but it did the job. Would watch again.

best game ive watched in months, would have been more satisfied with a tie but that ending was pretty sweet.
damn i thought i read xisco
Better then Lucas Moura as well.
Wow that is such an unfair result. Fucking Juventus.
No,Fuck Terry's bad positioning.Di Matteo's got a big job on his hands.He has to slowly turn Terry into a benchwarmer and make Cahill a regular starter.It'll be interesting to see how he does that.
Mikel fucked up the game for us and poor refereeing when Hazard was fouled in the penalty box. It really is a shame Meireles left.
Wilshere and Frimpong back in full training
Potentially our two best midfielders are back. Like two top new signings, it's so good to see!
Rosicky is still some time away, but with so many midfielders I don't know how Wenger will keep them all happy. I suppose there will be less playing pressure on Diaby and he can take things at his own pace. I feel for Coquelin though, he is a top player but probably will be playing second fiddle to whoever's playing second fiddle again... It's a shame, but I suppose there are 4 competitions so if Arsenal can get decently far in them then everyone may indeed be needed.

Very dull game.Lively performance from the Blues players and we'd have had more goals if it wasn't for Torres.I'm tired of all these false alarms and wrong signals from him.And Cole was there to save the game with what will probably be his only goal of the season lol.Funny thing is he's on my fantasy team along with Hazard and Torres who are supposed to be the goal scorers........ We really need some one else to bang the goals in.
EDIT:Almost forgot to mention how well Ramires played in the middle.Di Matteo should make him partner Lampard in midfield from now on,Mikel can go to hell.Ramires>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Mikel.I also liked how Mata and Hazard were played as inverted wingers with Oscar behind Torres.Any other striker would've atleast scored a double with the service they provided him with today.I think I remember reading some article that said Moses can play as a striker.......I'd take anyone over Torres right now;we won't be this lucky every time.
