I wouldnt be surprised if i'd cried most times we lost when i was a sprog but i do distinctly remember the 94 cup final because the state my dad was in as well, with my mother trying to console us both. Since then however the only times i've got emotional from games have been when we beat Arsenal in the champions league a few years back, i still watch the Bridge goal from time to time and get goosebumps each time. When we won the league at Bolton as well we had a lock-in in one of the pubs in town with the supporters club and everyone drank themselves into oblivion that was a great evening! a few tears of emotion shed from everyone! Was distraught after losing the CL final, as mentioned above i also had a sick feeling in my stomach. Ended up drowning my sorrows that evening. Was more incensed after last years CL exit and just really wanted to murder that ovrebo c**t!

Forget the trophies, the winning goal in the world cup final, My dreams of playing professional football now culminate in me having a 50-50 lined up with Mascherano and breaking both of his legs.

I'd like to see a few of our senior players rested as they looked rather jaded last night. So out would go Lampard, Anelka, Malouda and Cole. Does anyone know when Bosingwa is likely to be back? I'd like to see him get an hour or so perhaps, assuming otherwise id have Belleti starting there and have Ferreira playing at left back. Id also like Matic play in place of Lampard, with Mikel, Zhirkov and then Deco behind the strikers (assuming we go for the diamond.) Then perhaps Sturridge and Kalou up front with Drog on the bench to come on just in case. I have serious doubts as to whether this will be the line up as i dont see Lampard being left out, despite him suffering a big dip in form recently...

then has the cheek to have a go at the referee after the game. Gerrard should have been booked for diving and Arsenal given a free kick in the first place so i dont know what he's complaining about. How many poor decisions have gone their way over the course of the season anyway?

Sarcasm surely?

True, i think the whole team tonight deserves criticism for the performance barring Cech. The word lacklustre springs to mind when describing tonights game, and is a word which has seemingly associates itself with most of our away performances this year.

As soon as they started putting any pressure on us we didn't really look up for it. I think the players were overjoyed with the fact that for the first 20minutes Everton did very little pressing and thats why we picked them apart, but after the goal we seemed to drop off the pace and let Everton come back into it. Could sense that they were going to score for a good 10 mins before they did. The second half was not very good at all and im wondering what was said at half time?? Seemed to let Everton completely control the game after the restart...

What a bitterly dissapointing performance. Our away form really needs to be sorted out as we cant keep relying on United to drop points if we want to win the league this year. We've still got to play United, Liverpool and Spurs away, and given their home form this season i don't see Blackburn giving us much joy either on this basis.

i agree he hasnt really offered anything at all today, and every time he does go forward he ends up checking back, i would prefer to see sturridge running more directly at players and causing everton a few problems on the break, as that seems to be the way its going...

Dont know what everton had to do to get a free kick in that second half! I dont think ive seen such biased officiating ever, the ref was definately trying to make up for the earlier sending off but if you're going to do that at least be subtle! God i'd love mascherano to break his legs

Wayne Bridge vs Arsenal- Just for Ranieri's face afterwards

> Arsenal- hate the fans, hate wenger, and hate their players > Spurs- Joke of a club, bored of hearing about how its their year (see Arsenal) > Liverpool- not a good/big side despite their fans believing otherwise. Hate benitez, hate gerrard. hate all of their team in fact. > Leeds- generally dislike the people there > West Ham

Mutu- after the first few games for us i thought he was going to be brilliant. Turned out the only thing he was good at was racking up fat lines. Like everyone else in here as well im going to say Lampard, thought we had paid far too much for him but with hindsight, what an absolute steal that has turned out to be. Kalou- thought he was going to be similar to Robben in terms of ability and again, how wrong i was. Still, cant fault the commitment sometimes...

I love Wengers perspective on things. Can guarantee that had that tackle been the other way round we wouldnt hear the end of it and he'd be calling for the player to be banned from playing again. Arsenals players are dirty little c**ts themselves but as soon as the shoes on the other foot all we have is their players running around after the referee and Wenger fuming in the press. w**kERS. Make the most of being top of the league you wont be there for long! Nice to see spurs bottling it again as well, with some help from a classic anfield refereeing performance.
