That was an absolutely insane game of football!!! :D

4-4.. could've gone either way till the last sec.. when we went down 2-1 I tht thats it.. but Russian Pele had other ideas.. makes AW looks even more stupid now for not starting him against Chelsea.. hope we do the same to Chelsea and Man U where ever and whenever we meet them this year.. but only with a clean sheet :p

Good game by both teams (Y)

Would you rather me say: "I feel like rolling my eyes at that post, so there!?". Sorry, I'd rather use the emotes that are there for that reason.

News flash dude, I've argued/had great convos with Liverpool/football fans for years on this forum. I don't have to say anything to you.

The Arsenal game last night sure was a cracker. It was a brilliant free flowing game of football, perhaps good for the neutrals but not for my heart.

The pace of Walcott and Arshavin leading up to Arsenal's 4th was unbelievable. If I pushed my granny off a cliff she wouldn't go that fast.

You haven't though have you :laugh:

Great game for us :) We should have won it at 3-2 or 4-3 but we have a weakened back 4 and Fabianski doesn't have the experience, brilliant in the 1st half but lost it in the second half as usual. In a kind of weird way I didn't want a result from the game before hand as I'd rather Liverpool do the league than scummy Chelsea with no history or Scum Utd but once the game was on it was there for the winning!

You must have been watching a different game to the rest of us because Liverpool fully deserved and should of won the match. It could of been 8-4 easily but Fabianski pulled off some good saves.

Stats show Liverpool had 15 shots on target while Arsenal had 4.....which is the goals they scored.

Liverpool also had 12 Corners to Arsenal's....0 so the match was dominated by Liverpool only for careless defending really which gifted Arshavin two easy goals. I would say right time, right place of those goals really and just because he scored 4 goals in a match doesn't make him brilliant.

just because he scored 4 goals in a match doesn't make him brilliant.

I think Arshavin is class to be honest. Some of the technique on those goals of his last night was just brilliant.

A few words of praise should be put Fernando Torres way as well, having missed most of the season through injury he is only two goals behind Anelka in the goal charts.

What I loved most was that it was a clean and fair game.. almost no diving and only 1 yellow card.. thats great to see.. especially after Wembley :wacko:

Torres is class.. I wanted him to join Arsenal when Henry left us and he is showing his class now.. I don't know if he is better that David Vila though coz Vila still hasn't played at a top club while his Euro outing was superb.. Yossi is getting goals too now and thats coming in handy in Stevie G's absence..

I think Man U and Chelsea will win today.. but you never know.. lets go Pompey!! :p

I'd rather have 4 shots on target and 4 goals than 15 shots on target and 4 goals, doesn't that surely show that Arsenal took their opportunities a lot better than Liverpool?

Again, 12 corners and 4 goals, 0 corners and 4 goals :)

4 goals doesn't make him a great player but he is anyways, he proved that before he moved to Arsenal and throughout his time at Zenit and the Euros. He is pure class and it's just a shame we don't have him for champs league. God knows why Wenger didn't start him for the FA Cup game.

But it does show they attacked better than us. It was the finishing (and some good saves from Fabianski) that led them down, which is actually the story of our season really. You have to agree with this though, all the goals yesterday were due to defensive errors.

Ever since I saw Arshavin at the Euros, I thought he was pure class, and couldn't understand why some fans didn't want him! All this while we've been bemoaning we lack a player with experience and when one comes along they moan. 6 goals and 7 assists in 11 games speak for themselves. And he will only get better. It begs an interesting if pointless question: where would we be in the league now had Wenger bought him in the summer?

Pity he wont be there to destroy Man Utd in the UCL.

Man U can really secure the premier league by taking 3 points today, if not i'd take a guess that Chelsea makes a late run and Liverpool falls flat. If it gets closer between Chelsea and Man U there should be a good CL final/ Premier League race going on between them.

Yesterday's match was about as exciting as it gets, Great Game even though the defensive was missing for both sides (or maybe the offense was too strong?)

You haven't though have you :laugh:

Here is a perfect example. Why the hell are you so god damn dense Martyn? Apparently 2006 isn't years ago in Liverfail land.

Congratulations for answering your own question. By the way, 'God' should be capitialised, maybe that is just me being dense though ;)

As for the thread you posted, those were the days, but forgive me, I cannot be assed looking though the whole thread for a post of yours. I do miss the likes of deuz, L3thal and geek_rohit though :(

I don't believe in organized religion. I could careless if it's god or God. By the way, how does improper grammar relate to someone being dense?

Tied today... sigh.

    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
