Hammers are in freefall, so I would expect a comfortable home win :shock:

The Big Useless German will be out jumped by Carlton Cole at every set piece, and Wenger will complain of a non existent foul on Shezney which allowed them to score.

It's fat Sam, believe me it won't be non-existent and it will more than likely be from Nolan. He is one dirty :censored: in the area during set pieces. Still no excuse for drawing this game as they've got no defenders and only one decent player Diame.

Joe Cole is in retirement so he doesn't count.
Cue Cole scoring a world class goal against us :roll: :oops:

we need to actually start playing from the 1st minute in this one rather than the 45th minute like we have done most of the season :banghead: :banghead:

I don't see this being a walk in the park at all. Allardyce loves trying to wind Wenger up and one thing you can expect is that he will be working hard at set plays in training. I remember when he was at Blackburn and they targeted Samba on Fabianski at corners....from which they scored twice.

Unless we're 3 up and coasting there will be more than a few nervous moments in this one

I never thought I'd say this but hopefully Jenkinson starts ahead of calamity Sagna.

It don't really matter what happens. Spurs are a much better team than us and will finish comfortably fourth.
To pretend that this result could kick start a run of good form is laughable. We can't string two results together.

Even Liverpool, who the media keep slating for their start to the season, are level with us now! Christ knows where we will finish this season.

They stopped slating them ages ago, Sturridge is now the e
English Falcao after a goal against the mighty Mansfield and a poor Norwich. Their season is no different to ours from last season average team, leaky defence and wholly reliant on one man. Suarez pulls a hammy for a month or so and they drop to 12th-15th.

Yes, it is looking that way :?

I genuinely thought finishing 3rd, and claiming CL football, ahead of Sp*rs was significant. I thought we couldn't be any worse next season, and Sp*rs would struggle to cope with losing Redknapp, Adebayor and Modric.

Amazingly, we've fucked up yet another summer, regressed even further, whilst they've managed to keep on an even keel.

For the first time in years, they have what we don't - a genuine world class match winner. :( and I'm worried that, after years of regression, we're finally seeing the inevitable happen, and it still amazes me that the club have done fuck all about it.

In fact, our fate was so predictabe, and the warnings so bloody obvious, that it reminds me of that scene from 'Austin Powers' with the steamroller... :roll:

We'll fail to score in the first twenty minutes, it will be a nervy game, unless Wilshere or Theo does something we will proceed to draw 0-0 or lose 1-0 to a shit, scrappy goal.
