WHAT THE?…THE PREM, ROUND 11
Posted by Toeball Tyler
WHAT THE? is my weekly Premiership review with only the interesting events that should not have happened in the first place.
The weekend games during Round 11 more than made up for the lame midweek games. Where to start?
- While the final score is not a surprise, the game was. Manchester United needed all of their 4 goals to beat Hull City 4-3. Hull City would not give up as they were down 4-1 to keep Man U on their feet. This was a tough week for Hull City as they played Chelsea and Man U in a four day span. Hull City is now in 6th place on the table and Man U is 3rd.
- Arsenal is really having trouble with “easy” teams this year. Arsenal lost to new boys Stoke 2-1. How do you ask? Well, off of throw-ins to be honest. Do not be confused, these throw-ins are more like corner kicks and Rory Delap now has 5 assists off his throws this year thus far. The first goal honestly looked like it was just thrown into the far corner of the goal. Arsenal has now lost to Hull City, Fulham and Stoke, all teams that most would consider an easy 9 points. The lost left Arsenal 6 points behind the leaders.
- Tottenham (last in the Prem) had to play Liverpool (first in the Prem) at White Hart Lane. I know that Redknapp has performed miracles with other teams but Tottenham beating Liverpool is a pipe dream. Liverpool scored in the first 3 minutes. I turned off the tv. Then Tottenham decided to come back and beat Liverpool 2-1 (Liverpool did hit the pole half a dozen times). So let me get this straight, Tottenham could not beat anyone, literally, then Redknapp takes the same team and ties Arsenal and beats Prem leading Liverpool. I don’t even know what to say.
