OtherBrotherDarryl: desertgeek: Call me crazy, but I've never seen a guy get stretchered off with an oxygen mask on and that bag didn't seem to be expanding or contracting any.

Airplane O2 masks also don't inflate.

Oh yeah. It's early and my brain isn't fully working yet.

Arteta looked like he just took a knock to the temple, hit that nerve cluster and knocked him out.

You're the guy playing words with friends while flight attendants give you safety info huh.

/me too.

No, Angry Birds.

/shameful, I know.

OK, let's Bellamy up.

Hell, I may even take Carroll to get some offense going.

The sad state of soccer demonstrated by Suarez, described by Ian Darke.

Darke is sadly right that any striker would go down there regardless of contact.

Even with last week's performance, Walcott is one of the most overrated players in English football. We could easily sell him for at least £15 million this summer, and we should.

what did happen arteta? he was not moving at all - not even twitching or seemingly breathing

Szesz MOTM

Another injury. Verminator. Fark.

Oh Kelly, needed an extra step.

He got up, looked at the situation, then went down. Just as bad as a dive.

/both sides are bad

bimgooner: what did happen arteta? he was not moving at all - not even twitching or seemingly breathing

From what i saw and from the touch line reporter a 'pool player was going to give him a bit of a bump to let him know he was there and Arteta turned into him and got a shoulder to the jaw, left him with a concussion.

That... wasn't a dive. Oh, there's acting there, but it's not a dive.

What was Carra thinking there?

Time to start thinking about substitutions. Who do we bring on?

The midfield continues to belong to Liverpool. Arsenal are terrible in the middle third today.

dietbubba: Time to start thinking about substitutions. Who do we bring on?

Maxi and Bellamy

dietbubba: Time to start thinking about substitutions. Who do we bring on?

Bellamy on, Kuyt off
Shelvey on, Henderson off.

Dammit Kelly, you have to slot that

Kelly ufark.

the ox needs to come on

That was seriously a tap in. That's. It.

Reina is queen!

expobill: Reina is queen!

Bazinga.

Cinzano coming on!

Yossi getting the clap-off, good servant to Liverpool.

Wow, Downing is so bad.

Seriously, Steve McManaman is a twatter

Boooooo

Dalgish to the assistant: Fark off!

Where was the foul? Bad call.

Early highlight from the Guardian's MBM report:

"35 min: All a bit scrappy at the moment. Spearing catches Rosicky on the shin, and is lucky to get away without a booking. "If I ever find myself up against the wall facing a firing squad, I pray that the shooters are all wearing Liverpool shirts," writes Justin Kavanagh, in an email entitled "Poor execution"."

for a chippy match, i tip my hat to the ref and players for keeping things under control, and not losing their cool -so far

Downing, you had the space, take it down then shoot.

Omg so many poor passes today. COMPLETE A PASS. We might be surprised how quickly that could put that in business if we could complete. just one. farking. pass.

Lo and behold.

Balotelli starting with David Pizarro, Aguero on the bench, no Tevez.

Anybody else catch RvP do the jerk off motion in Kelly's face?

Diaby injured again? Damn, sucks for him.

A sub for a sub? Not good.

Whoever guessed 80th minute, collect your prize!

SmackLT: Suarez has the most punchable face in football.

I've hated him ever since that deliberate handball against Ghana. Technically within the rules, but too douchey for words.

Billy Crystal Meth Lab: expl

Those of you that had the 80th minute, come and collect your prize.

Kenny, where's the farking subs!?

How many corners are going to flub. It feels like last week all over again.

Does Kenny not believe in substitutions?
