Own Goal

1 Leave a comment on verse 1 0 Unbeatable by all
but your own

2 Leave a comment on verse 2 0 Near invincible
a beautiful double-save
on 43 minutes proved that

3 Leave a comment on verse 3 0 A display of sheer brilliance
that counts for nothing now

4 Leave a comment on verse 4 0 Now that a moment
of sheer stupidity by
Lucas Neill
means Villa 1
and West Ham 0

5 Leave a comment on verse 5 0 Who is the villain here?

6 Leave a comment on verse 6 0 It’s not a fault by you
but you will feel
the torment of conceding

7 Leave a comment on verse 7 0 Unbeatable still,
by all but your own.

Notes

Written about Robert Green against Villa. Sublime performance. And surely the strangest own goal so far this season.
