Promising thing is Everton is 0-0 with Bolton so far (HT), but none the less, they will gain a point on us unless we do something drastic or Bolton score (I know wtf?) anytime soon that we really cant afford to have.

Hopefully they'll nick points from Chelsea and Arsenal :).

Does anyone actually think Arsenal have a chance of winning the league?
Cause I really don't.

Well, at least we didn't get battered today. The best team won but we played reasonably well and did enough to give us a bit of confidence for the run-in. The only downsides were Webb's performance (contact outside the box - never a penalty), Carragher's constant hoofing, Lucas' awful passing and total anonymity from Gerrard.
All the teams around us have got to play each other and at least one more of the big boys so hope for 4th isn't gone just yet.
Just yet.

Does anyone watch any La Liga?

I started a few months ago just because of Barcelona and Madrid (even though the latter are pretty crap, but I suppose I'm like the stalkery ex-boyfriend wanting to look at Cristiano :P). And Messi, he is fucking ridiculous. You can't even foul the guy, he just either gets up or just runs off. I swear to God at the end of the Zaragoza match tonight that he wanted to get that pentalty just to give Ibrahimovic a chance to score.

Arsenal may very well be in a spot of bother when they play Barca in the Champs League. Messi is quite the little genius.

Indeed, Old Sol probably isn't going to have a very good night.
