apart from costing me points in the prediction league, i can't stop smirking at that result

Dean Saunders quote on the BBC.

"I haven't commentated at Anfield for a while, and I was really pleased to hear the fans singing You'll Never Walk Alone before kick-off. You used to feel like you could beat anybody after hearing that.
"Liverpool are playing a 4-3-3 formation, while Hull have got three at the back. Hull could be weak down the flanks but Liverpool could be weak up front with Mario Balotelli marked by three centre-backs. He really needs a goal.
"When you are not scoring there are certain things you do not do, as a striker. One of them is you do not turn up at training in a Ferrari, and you do not swap shirts at half-time."

you have to laugh

Suarez to Neymar and it's 1-0 Barca.

 

[Nando]

He's having some season.

 

[NorwayFB]

Benzema hits the crossbar twice!Massive chances for Madrid now.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Really not sure what is going on at Dortmund. Another home defeat, 1-0 to Hannover.

 

[pavlosmacwolf]

Meanwhile down at Swansea it appears Leicester have queried the height of the goal posts and the ref is up a ladder measuring them

This from the Grauniad

Erm, how on Earth do you come to the conclusion that the goalposts aren't the right size? In the warm-up, have a few shots at goal, see them all go over. "These goals aren't tall enough." Maybe it was a keeper. "Ball keeps going in, goals must be too big". Extraordinary. Players in the tunnel.

 

[NorwayFB]

Penalty to Madrid,Pique hand ball.

 

[NorwayFB]

1-1 Ronaldo.

 

[Nando]

Just the 16 in 8 league games for Ronaldo.

Madness from Pique.

 

[Nando]

Superb header from Pepe.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Good header, no marking at all though.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Real are absolutely brutal on the counter.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Really not sure what is going on at Dortmund. Another home defeat, 1-0 to Hannover.

It's bizarre.

100% record in the CL too, not even conceded a single in that tournament yet.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Mannone's having a good few days:

Problem for Sunderland is if you drop him, the back up is that massive freak Pantilimon who is one of the worst top flight keepers I've ever seen. Why do some PL clubs have absolutely terrible back up keepers? Liverpool at the moment can't drop Mignolet because they have Brad Jones as their only replacement. Everton can't drop Howard because Joel is the sub and he's a nightmare.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Burnley just don't fight and scrap enough for a low end PL team. So easy to pick through them.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Shocker by Lukaku, 1-1.

 

[Alan]

He's been unbelievably poor this season.

 

[andyc225]

Burnley are a really poor team playing poor football. If Everton tighten up and concentrate they'll take all 3 points.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Rank bad defending all round so far.
