5:30 am here on the West Coast, so I'll definitely be getting up in the morning for that one, we need points BIG-TIME!!! Also, we need momentum going in to the FA Cup Semifinals against Wigan, so COYFG!!! We should pretty much go all or nothing on this one, and be aware of what Everton did to the soon-to-be-relegated Fulham last week at Craven Cottage, they never stood a chance, boy I feel bad for Felix Magath, he should be managing a title contender or at least a club with some Champions League or Europa League aspirations, like he did with both Bayern where he won a double-double, and also with one of my other boys at VfL Wolfsburg, he made them champions of Germany in 2009.
Saw that Everton have won 5 games in a row for the first time in 12 years. I doubt that continues, and I bet an ugly draw is the result, which is fine with me. 2-2.
Actually Fulham did quite well. They didn't take their chances and Howard had one of those ridiculous games he usually saves for us.
Anything to secure our unofficial trophy as we vie for a real one the following week . I'll take a draw
Thanks for keeping this renaissance going Maui. You HAVE to start the next one too. Anything less is completely unacceptable!
Apparently, Diaby back in training, starting today. AW not counting on him, but maybe we'll get a surprise at some point down the road.
Psychologically this is important, but looking at fixture lists this is not must win. Our run-in gets pretty easy after Everton while they still have to deal with some tricky games like City, United (April Fools), and a trip to Southampton. That said, lets go stuff em.
can't wait for the "...a returning Diaby is a like a new signing for us" quote, followed by the annual "Diaby is the next patrick vieira" article that espn likes to recycle...
Followed by the "Diaby has played well enough in these last two weeks to earn a three year contract extension", followed by "Diaby has had a slight kick and will be out for a couple weeks", followed by "Diaby will be out for a couple months", followed by "we don't know when Diaby will be back", followed by "...a returning Diaby is a like a new signing for us" . Repeat....
Cuz we didn't win at Dortmund or Sp*rs at all. Really, I'm so sick of this meme. The only thing that qualifies as a 'big' game according to this is one in which Arsenal are embarrassed.
