Have a West Brom attempted to get a man out if their own half during the entire match? Pulis is back

Pulis is well and truly back - the most negative football of the year so far. I think West Brom players completed more passed to the bitters than they did to each other. How easy could they make it? 

[Mojo]

We should make a cheeky bid for Mirallas.

And Baines

He just does the obvious things first, Park the bus away from home ,stop leaking stupid goals then build from there, Not inspired stuff but he does it well, 

[Megadrive Man]

17 points off 4th, 4 above relegation

 

But Martinez PROMISED he would get them top four?

[magicrat]

Naismith not exactly the worlds best liar

[Stickman]

Needed to draw first blood with that pen.

[Joe Strummer]

Did you see where Pulis had him playing?

In his defence fair enough. West Brom were horrific, Pulis doesn't give a shit mind.

 

Naismith talking shit there.

Martinez talking mega shit 

[Reckoner]

Everton need an escape plan, although the peno reaction was Over The Top. Plus something about 'a bullet to the head,' to me for these 'jokes' perhaps.

[stringvest]

I would have found it difficult to believe Naismith could talk more shit than he plays.  But there you go.  They were atrocious tonight.  None of that midfield wanted any responsibility, until that oviedo comes on, and he's just shite.  Miralis has shit the team bed there - he'll be off very soon, I would have thought.  

 

All in all a wonderful night.

[Faustus]

Kop Land.

[Anubis]

Luckily I have missed this game, but can anyone explain why Baines didn't take the penalty?  

 

Mirallas took it off him and took the penalty and missed. Naismith had a go at him and there were rumours of a dressing room bust up at half time. Mirallas didn't come out for the second half.

[manwiththestick]

They needed a win there to put some Daylight between them and the teams below them. Thought some of the booing at the end was Over the top.

[Mojo]

Martinez says Mirallas didn't come back because he was injured. Maybe he knows best because he injured him.

[Dr Nowt]

Mirallas just wanted to be in Stallone's video.

 

If they're going to pretend Tony Bellew is a world champion he can be forgiven for closing his eyes and thinking he's lining one up for the World Cup itself.

 

Just a pity he didn't wait until he'd taken it before he closed them.

[razor]

No escape from no victory.  For 6 games now.

[Tony Moanero]

Manchester City bore me.

[redinoz]

Goalless draws in the next few games nailed on then.

Hope not. I'm taking the kids to see Aus vs China on Thursday night.

Although a penalty shootout would be exciting, I think it will be too late for the little ones if it goes into extra time.

[Mook]

I didn't see the game but how the fuck did Spurs manage to beat Chelsea 5-3 the other week, genuine question?

Kane was excellent, just ran straight at Terry and Cahill and exposed their lack of pace. Caused them all sorts of problems. 

 

Neither Terry or Cahill are great players really. Good at all the ale house stuff, heading it away, jumping in front of shots, etc, and I'm not belittling that side of the game, but they're both slow and pretty shit on the ball. Having probably the second best keeper on the planet behind them, a top class holding midfielder in front of them, and playing for a very tactically astute manager, makes their job much easier if you don't get them out of their comfort zone. Kane did, and it worked.

As did Sterling for his goal last night.

Need more of it next week

[manwiththestick]

If Kane can do it Sterling is more than able.

[magicrat]

If Kane can do it Sterling is more than able.

Or maybe even Cain and Abel
