What a performance by Drogba. Also watched the A. Villa Wigan match, very entertaining. I do like Wign's LB Maynor Figueroa, the kid can cross has a good pace, and delivered some amazing long balls in the box which Molinaro will only dream about. Where are our scouts, players like this won't cost alot and they are so effective. I'm watcging the Arsenal Everton match, good game

Really garbage defending by Everton.

I mean, people say that the Prem's defending is just as good as Italy's and better than Spain's, but I still can't agree with that.

I don't know about Spain, but the defending in the EPL is a joke.

Everton's third and fourth goals were identical and both dreadful.

You have to work so much harder to score goals in Serie A, which is part of what I like about Italian football.


Arsenal are looking impressive, but I think that has a lot to do with how bad Everton have been.

All the goals came from defensive errors. Bendtner waltzed around Baines like he was Ronaldo or something; totally dysfunctional.

The defending in La Liga is not as bad as this, that's for sure.

The big mistake on the first goal was that three or four defenders went to close Fabregas who just moved it sideways to Denilson who was left in loads of space.

I watch very little La Liga these days, but from memory it is/was worse than the EPL in general.

Bundesliga now? :D The league where they score crazy numbers because they never looked up the words defence in the dictionary? :lol: Saw today Dortmund and Hamburg, 4 goals in 12 minutes, hehe, and thats VERY common occurance in Bundesliga :D

I don't think I can agree with that. Probably the same level.
You need to watch La Liga more :D


But the difference is La Liga dont really try to play defensive, basically whole league are quite gunho philosphy and leave space alot. But EPL teams try to play tactical and organised defence, but too many headless chickens that it can get rather embarrassing at times.
