Where's the link, Ernest?
I'm a Liverpool fan, by the way
I guess I'm the only Letter Of The Week winner that never gets his letters published anymore because of Bugs Bunny and Daffy Duck reasons.
Go on. Say 'Nobody likes you q-s,' 4 years ago that ang-moh girl who said that to me, I made her confess she loves me in a chatroom. Try me, I won't make you famous. I'll disgrace you.
I'll post Friday's topic when I feel like it.
Liverpool Vs Chelsea.
Chelsea already drew 2-2 with Fulham and Reading.It also lost to Middlesbrough and Tottenham Hotspur by 2-1 margin.Therefore it will be Liverpool 3 Chelsea courtesy of Petr Cech and John Terry who missed giving X'mas gifts to EPL teams.
Arsenal Vs Manchester United
Emirates Stadium, home of charitable organisation Arsenal, contiune to give 3 points to Manchester United.Therefore it will be Manchester United 2 Arsenal 1.
From : Chester Low
On Liverpool vs Chelsea
Chelsea will be without its "untouchable" defender -> John Terry.Without Him, it will be much more easier for bellamy and crouch. Liverpool need to keep lampard and drogba quiet. It will be a low scoring affair as cech is rumour to be comming back.Therefore 1-0 to liverpool with Gerrard scoring the winner!
Arsenal vs Man U
Arsenal will be without gilberto, but that wont make Arsenal weak.Arsenal has all the talented young players.Man u has been playing very well for the past few weeks.So i feel its going to be a 1-1 Draw for Man U vs Arsenal Match.
Mitsukake ->Liverpool fan
I'm not good at predictions.
Anyways...
Liverpool 1 Chelsea 2
Arsenal 2 Manchester United 0
I'm Chelsea fan.
Goooo Arsenal!!!
=)
i think it's gonna be a draw. :P
Arsenal to win. 2-1
Chelsea to win 2-1.
Goodnight.
>>Chelsea already drew 2-2 with Fulham and Reading.It also lost to Middlesbrough and Tottenham Hotspur by 2-1 margin.Therefore it will be Liverpool 3 Chelsea courtesy of Petr Cech and John Terry who missed giving X'mas gifts to EPL teams.
Alternatively, we could look at it in another way, Liverpool lost to Arsenal 3-1 and lost to Arsenal reserves 6-3. Hmm. Man Utd can only score one goal at home and you think Liverpool can score 3 past Cudicini.
I'm a 100% Liverpool fan.
Although the Reds have not been at their very best this season, losing so many matches away from home, but they have put on a consecutive winning streak in the Premiership, and hope to be able to beat the likes of Chelsea this coming Saturday.
Will be supporting from my workplace in Ontario, Canada rooting for the Reds to beat the Blues at Fortress Anfield.
You'll Never Walk Alone, all Reds supporters!
I'm a diE hard MAn uTD fAns..
This seasons will be a big year for them in the League and domestic cup for them.
they will win the treble again. because they have been consistant.if a club who have not been perfoming well but have win the league i think is not fair at all, like what eveybody is thinking..
this Saturday will be a revenge for manutd 3-2 win for them..with a last minute goal by super-sub solskjaer.
and as an anti-chelsea fans, i dont think liverpool will beat them, they will found themself lucky if they can manage to draw.2-1 drogba the winner.
THe Gunners is here...
This weekend i pray that C.ronaldo and vidic is injured,schole also and solskjaer not in the super-sub list..if not i dont think arsenal have the ablilty to win them.
Arsenal have been passing and passing but too much passing cant score so stop passing better.If i the coach keep on shooting better right.
I hope baptista will be on form like the game he did on liverpool matches, like the WWE Bastista crazy..
BUt my feel is if ARSENAl best 11 vs MANUTD BEST 11 ResUlt will bE , Arsenal 1-2 MANUTD Solskjaer last min winner again...
Chelsea's most likely going to win. Liverpool seems to have some sort of problem, judging from the 6-3 match with Arsenal in the Carling Cup. That was some really bad defending.
Meanwhile, over at Man U, I seriously hope Larsson will score. It's not everytime we see legends play in EPL.
With Arsenal picking up their form, the match might most likely end in a draw.
my predictions :
Liverpool 2 Chelsea 1
Arsenal 2 Man Utd 2
liverpool is as desperate as chelsea for that 3 points, but with the fans at home as the 12th man, i'm rooting for liverpool.
as for arsenal, they will either run out winner or hold the leaders to a draw. arsenal will be more desperate for the points, and they have henry.
I think Liverpool might just get one past Chelsea finally in the league.With the Blues greatly depleted in defence and the Reds great in front of home fans bar the past 2 matches against Arsenal,the best time for the Merseysiders to beat the Londoners.
Arsenal have been inconsistent so we don't know which Gunners side will show up this Sunday.As a Devils fan,I will love to see Man U win the match and get a tighter grip on the trophy.Always a tough call to make between this 2 sides.However the Devils seem red hot right now so a slender victory will be enough for Sir Alex but who knows Mr Va-va vroom will steal the limelight once again.
What a weekend for fans!
Cheers
Gooner here.
Arsenal will win 2-1, with the winning goal from a set piece.
Arsenal Supporters Forum
Singapore Gooners come on in!
Arsenal Singapore
Chelsea will go to Anfield like the lion on their crest and TAKE the 3 points.
Arsenal has beaten the Red Devils at Old Trafford. The Gunners will gun down the Red Devils at the Emirates.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Oooh to.
Oooh to be.
Oooh to be a Gooner!!!
Big hi to Ah Tiong & the rest of the Gooners...
Get In There!!!
haha ideal result is of course Chelsea to win Liverpool & Man U to lose to Arsenal. Obvious that I am a Chelsea fan right??
anyway, Chelsea will boosted by the return of Cech (even with that protective headgear). Let's hope no accidents to him back on the first match. Actually, both teams have been in their bad patches -- Liverpool especially after their humilitating defeats.. & if rafa countinues with his tink~tinkering.. haha Mourinho and Co will have an even easier time ;p
Henry is back, the Beast is finally performing.. However, man u seems on a roll too. The previous encounter saw Arsenal winning Man u. Let's hope for a repeat. Even if that doesn't happen, I would definitely not want RONALDO to score.
United gotta be the treble season again!!!! you Gunners dont fool by your win against liverpool, we will will crush you at your own ground.
John Terry And Peter Cech are back but lack of match fitness and sharpness will be Chelsea's down fall.
I dislike Liverpool which is responsible for all English Teams being expel in all European Cup Winners Cup, European Cup and UEFA Cup plus death of Juventus fans due to murderous Liverpool fans.
Liverpool didn't apologise and offer monetary compensation to Everton that suppose to be following season 1985 -1986 European Cup, Manchester United in same season European Cup Winners Cup and other English teams taht qualiified UEFA Cup.
That is the reason why I love to support teams playing against Liverpool.But this time, facts and reality tells me it will be Liverpool victory courtesy of John Terry and Petr Cech who missed giving out gifts through injureis.
Arsenal have lost to Manchester United by big margins like 2-6 and most recent 2-4 that ended Gunners EPL Throne.
Emirates Stadium, where Arsenal lost most of their matches, will be a happy hunting ground for Manchester United.It'll be another victorious massacre win for Manchester United.
From : Chester Low
First of all, I think Arsenal are still unbeaten at the Emirates? Correct me if i am wrong.
Liverpool playing at Anfield where they are still unbeaten in the League will go all out to get the 3 points since 1 point will be of little use in their chase of Man U. But Chelsea boosted by the return to form from the previous game will hold firm. It would be tight and decided by that moment of genius or mistake by either team. 1-0 win to either side, probably Chelsea since they are more suited to grinding out results.
Arsenal V Man Utd
These 2 sides are playing the most attractive football in the league at the moment. 1 point to Arsenal will not do itself any favours hence it will attack Man U. Man U seems to have gotten the edge with many goalscoring options. Gilberto's suspension will be a blow to Arsenal. The onus would be on Flamini/Rosicky/Fabregras to step up against the rejuvenated Scholes and Carrick. Having also lost to Arsenal earlier at Old Trafford, I bet Fergie will not be letting this go easily. Few teams do the double over Utd. Let's hope it doesn't happen on Sunday. I take Man U to win, 2-0 the final score.
liverpool to win chealsea 1-0 n man utd 2 draw with arsenal 2-2...
how i wish jose mourinho would leave chelsea tis moment n lampard,drogba,robben and all their centrebacks 2 get injured or food poisoning??den liverpool would thrash them at Anfield..
lols
Yup, I'm quite sure Arsenal are unbeaten at the Emirates, though I didn't really check it up... From what I recall, they only often get DRAWS there, but don't seem to remember any losses.
Anyway, unlike others, I don't think I'm all that psyched up for this weekend's matches! Think I'm more concerned about Singapore now... hahahaha, alright, I'm going off to the National Stadium now... I managed to secure some free tix. :P
I'm not watching Singapore Vs Indonesia at the stadium but I'll be watching the semi-final WHEN Singapore makes it. Because my future wife is..........
arsenal fan
yes if fergie's forehead is black this sunday. its gonna be Arsenal winning. haha. predict 2-1.
no gilberto but fabregas can make things happen. henry's back. i think we can manage a win. if almunia is still the keeper... *keep my fingers crossed*
Liverpool 3 Chelsea 0
Man U 4 Arsenal 0
COME ON SINGAPORE. THIS TIME I'M WATCHING FROM HOME. BE THE GROUP B WINNER. I WANT YOU TO BEAT MALAYSIA IN THE SEMIS. STAND UP FOR SINGAPORE. COUNT ON YOU SINGAPORE. WE ARE SINGAPORE, SINGAPOREANS!!!
go for it, Singapore! you can do it, grab a draw at least!
anyway i was the recent winner of the letter of the week, and the tnp hasn't call me to get the prize. hais, so happy. they only called to confrim my name on Monday and that's it?
young man,don't panic.tnp will call up all the winners for the month to collect the prizes at a later date.the postman won't loaf on his duty and forget about you.rest assured about that.
Saw the NewPaper today? Big 4 playing during the weekend...but no coverage of Arsenal!!
Arsenal Supporters Forum
Singapore edged past Indonesia. 2-2 Final Score. Thrilling match. Quite a few poor refereeing, first the off-sides against Singapore were wrong (most of them), then Alam Shah lucky not to get sent off for elbowing, then the Indonesian guy lucky not to get sent off too for a two-footed challenge. In the end, the difference was, Singapore had a better defense than Indonesia and had the best keeper in Asia, while Indonesia were better at attacking than Singapore. Singapore lucky to be through on goal difference and if the goal for Vietnam wasn't disallowed we would have been out already.
Liverpool to squeeze past Chelsea, Man Utd to tear Arsenal apart.
Oh man,poor Laos got hammered again.Can't imagine whats going on in the players' minds right now.
Chelsea fan.. Chelsea should hav enugh to beat Liverpool even though liverpool r the form team in the epl n hav kept clean sheets all the way during their good form.. chelsea hav the best striker in europe now n we can hopefully score against liverpool.. why nt another cracker by drogba n a much-needed goal for sheva (if he plays) against the team he scored for his first chelsea goal??
arsenal to win cos united will n should drop points.. arsenal r unbeated at emirates n henry is back wif his best form of the season.. 2-1 to arsenal n henry n fabregas (he needs an EPL goal this season) will get the goals.. perhaps larsson will get the consolation..
went to watch singapore's match n i must say today's crowd increased mainly due to the TNP's coverage.. imagine the drizzle n yet singaporeans bother to turn up for it.. the referees n asst. referees are abit kelong as there are so many wrong decisions.. example, wrong offsides, some pathetic dives (by both singapore n indonesians) n a 12th man for indonesia (no. 3).. bt the bottomline is singapore finishes as group b winner n indonesia goes home with peter withe sacked..
laos have conceeded 20 goals in 2 games.. wat a joke..
cheers n lets enjoy the EPL weekend of the season!!
SHUT UP MALAYSIA, YOU'RE NEXT.
I have a confession to make. I switch clubs.
The first team I supported was Aston Villa in 1993. Because I like their jersey.
I switched to Arsenal in 1995 because I like Bergkamp and Platt.
In 1996, I support Liverpool because of the cool lifestyles of Jamie Redknapp, Robbie Fowler, Steve McManaman, Jason McAteer and David James.
When Jamie Redknapp moved to Spurs, I supported them too.
I noticed Chelsea got Jose Mourinho, CLAUDE MAKELELE, Frank Lampard, Joe Cole, Arjen Robben and Ricardo Carvalho. I couldn't resist but supporting them. They rewarded me by winning the League Cup and Premiership.
When I look back at the days of Hoddle, Zola, Vialli, Ranieri, Gullit, I ask myself, 'Why didn't I support Chelsea earlier. I always like things with class,'
Oh my god, you're a Johnny Come Lately. Tsk tsk tsk. Shame on you, boy. If United wins the treble, I'd expect you to support them then. Shame on you.
First up, Liverpool Vs Chelsea.
Liverpool to win 2-1. Despite being booted out of 2 cup competitions in a row, Liverpool have been boosted by their 3-0 win last weekend, and will certainly want to get their season back on track, and fight for a Champions League spot. On the other hand, Chelsea are in tatters. Sure, they beat Wigan 4-0, but take note that Wigan practically gave away the 3 points and handed the Blues the victory. Unlike Liverpool, who fought for their win. Liverpool are thus in better shape than Chelsea. Don’t forget the Reds fans too, who will turn up in full force to be the 12th man on the pitch.
Next, Arsenal Vs Man Utd.
This will end 1-1, with Man Utd scoring first, and Arsenal equalizing. Man Utd are playing extremely well at the moment and will want to avenge their 1-0 defeat to Arsenal at Old Trafford. This motvation will spur them on to score. On the other hand, Arsenal not only have the services of hitman Thierry Henry, but also, their young guns are maturing fast and will cause trouble for Man Utd’s defence. Therefore, the two strikeforces will cancel each other out.
Haha, it was really nerve-wracking yesterday. Ahh, and for once, I actually didn't want to sit at the grandstand section but that was where my free tix assigned me too. You see, the other end at the East section looked to have more "atmosphere". And even though it wasn't my first time, it still felt weird not to have commentary, replays, etc. But well, watching at the stadium still beats watching on the tv as somehow I tend to be more emotional and noisy. I just wished those people in front didn't kept turning around everytime I went, "NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!" which was quite often.
Moving on to this weekend's matches, well, why I'm not all that psyched up for this weekend's matches is because this time the results would have little impact on Liverpool... In the past, a Liverpool v Chelsea match always served as a chance for us to bridge the gap between us and Chelsea. Well, if we FINALLY win this time, the gap between us will be closer, but it'd mean little if we helped our arch-rivals Man United in their title quest instead. Of course I'll still be overjoyed if we get to beat Chelsea, it's just that the match isn't as significant this time as in the past. After all, everyone else will be wondering if the gap between Chelsea and Man U can be narrowed after this weekend, and no one really cares about the 3rd and 4th.
Chelsea has beaten your team, your team, your team, your team, your team, your team, your team, your team...
just visit purplefootball.blogspot.com and you know who i support. =p
obviously, Liverpool are being humiliated in the Cup games against Arsenal. No excuse for the FA Cup, but excusable for the League Cup (in my opinion).
Definitely they are not gonna send out the likes of Paletta, Peltier, Warnock in defence against Drogba & Co. Although i fancy that Drogba might score some "specials" again.
I still think is a good time to face Chelsea; with their inspiration captain Terry out and defense unstable at the moment. Liverpool strikers are starting to take turn to score in games now and that is a good sign. Let see if the Blue's defence can hold up against Kuyt, Crouch and Bellamy.
My prediction? 3-2 to Liverpool. Unlikely to be a goals-less match!
This is gonna be six pointer! nine-pointer if Arsenal do their part also... The league is getting interesting... might not be a 2 horse race afterall... =p
Singapore Vs Malaysia
Look at the way Old Lions concede 2 silly soft goals against Indonesia.Old Lions are just plain lucky not to give away 3rd goal to receive rotten tomatoes and smelly eggs like their Italian 1966 World Cup buddies.
Malaysian Tigers did devour Old Lions 4-0 in their previous encounter.I won't be surprise Strong and Healthy Tigers will eat meat and throw out bones belong Old Lions.Likely be 5-0 and 5-0 in favour of Malaysian Tigers.
Old Lions.You'll Never Walk Alone With Another Defeat To Malaysian Tigers.
From: Chester Low
at least the lions proved me wrong. they got through the group stage, and i'm rooting for them all the way! go singapore!
hey q-s, no offence but, why not support all twenty teams in the EPL. that way, whichever team wins the EPL, you'll be happy.
nvm, whatever. anyway i'm sorry postman. i guess i was too impatient.
Whats up with the nicknames to every club, Chester?
Anyway, I would disagree that the goals conceded by Singapore were soft goals.
The first was the error of the wall, which I believe Lewis had little time to arrange. It got the help of a deflection and Ilham was already one-on-one with Lewis at 2 yards. Name me one keeper in the world who could save that shot comfortably. Even Petr Cech would have struggled.
The second was a lob so beautiful, I thought it was a wonder goal. Lewis at full-stretch, he could not even reach it.
QS, are you serious?
Chelsea? Class? Surely you're being ironic?
Liverpool all the way man.
YNWA.
Liverpool will come out as the only winner when the Big Four clashes..
Liverpool 2-1 Chelsea
Arsenal 0-0 Man U
Manutd!!!
Odds are level for Arsenal vs ManUtd.
Emirates isnt the home for Arsenal yet.. so i will buy $50 1:2 as the actual score at singaporepools which the odds is at 8-9 dollars.. hopefully can win big here hahaha!!!!!!!!
Liverpool to win 2-1.
I just read The New Paper Sports section. Question Of The Week is about David Beckham's move to the USA.
GUNNERS!! ((:
Man U ru|es..! ;p
Likely situation of post mortem matches for -
Liverpool Vs Chelsea
Liverpool fans, singing 'You'll Never Walk Alone', having witness Steven Gerrard superb performance by scoring a spectacular goal and 3 other goal assists in 4-2 win over Chelsea.Liverpool players leaving the field with smiling faces while Benitz shaking hands with each player saying 'Well done.We can finally take over 2nd Place.'
Chelsea players, angrily accusing each other who's who responsible for Liverpool's goals, broke into camps with one standing by Jose Mourinho while the other support Roman Abramovich's decision to bring in new manager.
The situation worsen that finally Mourinho said 'I quit.'
Arsenal Vs Manchester United
Monday morning. 26 guns salute at Emirates Stadium with Arsene Wenger's apologies 'Sorry for 2-6 loss to Manchester United.Sorry for another failure to win EPL Title.'
From: Chester Low
Die hard Liverpool fan. Liverpool to win 3-2 and Manchester United to win 2-1.
Always a liverpool fan...
Liverpool 2 Chelsea 0. Man. Yesterday was probably the first time in my life I backed the scu-, er, Scousers to win something.(Man Utd fan, btw.)
Well, Gilberto is gone for tonight's showdown at Emirates Stadium, leaving Wenger with only Flamini, Rosicky or Fabregas to handle Man Utd's seamless midfield axis of Carrick and Scholes. This will be rather interesting because for the first time in Man Utd/Arsenal history we witness two attacking midfield axises pitted against each other. I will say that the loss of Gilberto will disrupt Arsenal's play as the intercepting and playbreaking options offered by Gilberto will have to be shouldered by someone less capable defensively, something Scholes can exploit with his troublesome runs and insightful passing.
Hnery and Van Persie as usual will be lining up to threaten Rio Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic. I'll be praying that Rio's amnesia doesn't strike, leading him to think it's Christmas and gift the ball to either of them. At the other end of the pitch, Rooney has been playing well recently, except that he's not getting the lucky break he needs to score. It is notable, though, that Rooney is the man who has always wrecked Arsenal's dreams. On his debut for Everton he halted Arsenal's unbeaten streak with a 25 yard stunner, and later on brought their 49-game undefeated run to a standstill with an assist and a goal. Later on, he pushed the Gunners out of the title race together with Cristiano Ronaldo with a comprehensive 4-2 win. Hopefully, he will combine again with the red-hot Ronaldo to devastate Arsenal.
Chelsea has been leaking goals although Petr Cech is back. John Terry is still not back...Carvalo is down with fever. So, let's be realistic in your predictions.
The Chelsea, Arsenal and Man U are the same team we saw 4 months back. So our predictions should be better looking at the changes.
sorry, The Chelsea, Arsenal and Man U are NOT the same team we saw 4 months back.
