No is the simplest answer, not a thing, apart from the shots on our goal it was like watching a replay, and when will he learn to make changes earlier.
I don’t really know where to start with this report… it’s only half time… you can’t write a team off at half time can you? Especially when the second half is 90minutes long and at home!
Tonight was woeful, my brother summed it up quite nicely.
‘That could have been a helluva lot worse’
Wise words, from the wisest of 21 year olds…
If you were to ask me to express my feelings about tonight’s score using a picture… I’d use this one…
Not Guilty
The Mancs missed two open goals from 4 yards, hit the bar from 25 yards out and mostly dominated possession. Arsenal were lost, we lacked fluidity in our passing, leadership in our back line and any sort of creativity.
Some will point to the 4-5-1 being the root cause of the problem… but I’d point to our Russian maestro being out. He gives us so much as a player, it’s not just his creative genius though, it’s the work rate… he will keep persevering regardless of the situation… tonight’s squad don’t always have that same drive and desire to make things happen.
Arsenal’s big names didn’t show up, our experienced players failed and some of our fringe players showed the coach why they are fringe players.
So, what do I think about next Tuesdays game? Well, I believe Arsenal can turn this around… I believe we can keep a clean sheet and I believe we have the talent to unlock ManU. I think we could be in for a magical night at the Emirates…
However, certain players need to ask themselves an important question: How much do I want it?
On tonight’s evidence… not very much.
Player Ratings:
Almunia: Man of the match tonight. He managed to keep out three dead cert goals with some top drawer saves. There was nothing he could do about the goal. 9
Gibbs: If Almunia said he wouldn’t be able to take my MoM award due to personal reasons… I’d give it to Gibbs. Security stopped him on his way out of the ground pointing to suspiciously large pocket with unusually large object in it… it was ok though… it was Wayne Rooney. 18 year old Gibbs kept the beastliest man in England quiet all night, which for me is an extremely powerful achievement. 8.5
Kolo: Carry on Kolo… starring Fish Face… What a nightmare those two have become, they’re defending is laughable at times. I can’t understand how Kolo can look so solid next to Gallas, yet so poor with Silvestre… it’s not a good sign is it? 5
Silvestre: Slightly better than his leading man, but still very dodgy. Taking ManU’s fall guy on as back up was a poor idea… most didn’t even need the benefit of hind sight to establish that. 5.5
Sagna: Not the worst performance of the evening, but not great either. He hasn’t replicated last seasons form by a long way, but I’ll take him over Eboue any day of the week. 6.5
Theo: One second… just checking back… oh right, he did definitely play! A quiet performance from young Theo… maybe he had something on his mind? Maybe young Mexican Carlos Vela sneezed without covering his mouth on the team bus? Theo looks like a worrier, doesn’t he? Jokes aside… what a luke warm, blind alley runining, poor passing performance. 5
Cesc: A pretty quiet performance from Cesc. He is a captain who leads by example… not through man motivation skills… so when things aren’t going well, if his feet can’t do the talking… his mouth can’t. Playing in the hole again… it really doesn’t work does it? His lack of pace is so apparent that far up the field, especially against great teams. 6
Nasri: Played centrally this evening, and was a bright spark in our play… maybe a bright spark is a little too generous, he was more like the light on an old skool casio watch. Nasri looks good in the middle when he has Arshavin out wide… sadly, Arshavin can’t play against united. 7
Diaby: Firstly, someone needs to have a word with Diaby about that beard… truly awful. Not as awful as his overall play yesterday. Diaby is slow to distribute the ball, he tries to over ellaborate even the most basic situations and he is infuriatingly sloppy with his passes. A terrible performance, not helped by the fact that he has never been any good being played out wide. Round peg… square hole. 4
Song: Our best midfielder by a long way tonight… I don’t like saying that, not because I don’t like Song… but it says a lot about the team performance when your stand out midfielder is the holding midfielder in a 5 man set up. He really was good tonight… I particularly like a turn he made in the second half. 8
Adebayor: I think I preferred him when he had a point to prove? A real nothing performance from him tonight… refusal to chase down lost causes, inability to get on the end of anything… running offside… a big night for the anti-Ade brigade… and based on tonight, how can I defend him? 4
Subs:
Nik B: Brought on to replace the invisible winger… which was an odd decision. Nik is cumbersome and lacks pace… why he was going to trouble United from out wide on the right was beyond me? He managed to misplace 50 % of his passes, smash a header wide and contribute zero shots to our unimpressive tally. Surely Rambo or Vela (He has two feet before you start) would do more damage coming on for Theo? 5
Eduardo: I would have had him on earlier… It was nice to see him… nice to know he’s alive. 6
Conclusion:
A pretty typical first leg semi final. Arsene will be hoping he can gee his young team up for the return leg. I really feel this year could be our year… lets make sure if we go out out, we go out all guns blazing in a 4-4-2! Let’s pray the Boy Wonder comes back!
Have a good day Grovers, and don’t forget to e-mail me your ManU pics if you have any!
you think a size 9 will be big enough for that head?????
ok, how about waving a red and white bra?
Faceman… I have the same thing! I have the flag as well!
BBK, it’s a good idea… I think you have to stop being so down on everything… clinically, it will shorten your life.
Fuck Manchester United and their fucking luck with injuries. Rio Ferdinand will be available against us. We are fucking done. Vidic is shit without him, but like always, United have no fucking injuries. Those cunts always dive when they’re not touched and roll around for ages. You’d think they’d have some injuries with those antics on the field.
now that is more like it lollllll
what flag?
BBK, why reinvent the wheel?
Flags work… no need to do anything else.
What would your idea be?
and did you get the orange DB10 t-shirt or a white one…i got the whitey.
pedro if things continue the way they are it will only get worse,someone needs to stand up against this.
I got an orange one… it’s sitting in my cupboard… I’ll get £20 for that one day!
hey pp, just wanted to say that we’re going to loose to frikin’ away goals imo!!!!!!!!!!
bollox, i wanted the orange one, more in tune with DB10/dutch etc.
wanna swapsie?
BBK, how will they get worse?
You’ve been waxing lyrical about United all season… now you are complaining because we lost against them?
They are probably the best team in the world and we only lost 1-0… I fancy our chances.
Honestly, I’m starting to doubt Wenger…again. We’re never going to win silverware with these fucking average kids. Why can’t we sign good defensive players?
Facemam, I forgot they did the white one!
We’ll sell them as a package when the time is right…
pat – i fancy a few defensive signings this summer, this sakho kid from psg looks mustard, rapid fast and tough as an ox.
right you are, pedro.
Pat, it wasn’t the kids who let the team down last night… it was the experienced ones…
Silvestre, Kolo… Ade…
Pedro, do you see us scoring 3 against a 100% fit United backline? i don’t.
Our boy Justin Hoyte should help us out and injure a few of those cunts, specifically Rooney or Tevez.
Imo, we got dominated b/c of the workrate in that team. SAF played Anderson, Rooney, Tevez, and Fletcher. Those 4 players run as much as Flamini did and we don’t get any time on the ball. Tactical genius.
c’mon only arsenal get the most injury’s pat you should know that by now
‘Mikael Silvestre and Eduardo have been ruled out of Arsenal’s Premier League clash with Portsmouth’
So that is why Eduardo doesn’t start.
It was everyone. The midfield especially let us down. Nasri, SOng, Diaby, Theo, and Cesc. Thats what our game is based on and they were all lazy cunts yesterday.
What the hell is wrong with Eduardo? Clichy is out against United and RVP is a huge doubt. Our physios are shit, and so are Wenger’s predictions when he tells us they’ll be back soon.
i think playing cesc in the half striker role is more criminal than playing that lunatic diaby out wide left.
Pat Vidic is shit without ferdinand? thats not a fact. vidic is the rock in that defence
Pat, I see us keeping a clean sheet and nicking a goal… then taking them in extra time.
SAF didn’t beat us with work rate, we lost on nerves and tactical naivity…
We need to go back to basics… play the right players in the right decisions… and take a fucking gamble for once…
with that defence pedro
Sagna, JD, Kolo and Clichy…
We can do it.
clichy won’t be back
No one gave us a chance in Madrid…
‘They’ll be happy if they keep it to 4′
We can do it…
Franchise, just check United’s defensive record without Rio. e’s much more important to them especially against a team like Arsenal. Vidic is amazing in the air, but his positioning is suspect on the ground. Nasri’s 2nd goal was evidence against that. Also, the whole Liverpool team targeted Vidic, not Rio. Vidic cannot read a quick, passing game.
Playing Nasri as a holding midfielder might be the dumbest thing Wenger has ever done.
Not a problem BBK… Gibbs has been excellent.
How about this scenario lads…. exactly 10 years on from that semi final replay at villa park, dennis missing the pen, the hairy welsh fucker scoring that goal in extra time…..
WELL
robin makes it 1-0 in the 60th minute, therefore 1-1 on agg….. rooney gets a penalty in the 92nd minute, which ronaldo takes and is saved with a magnificent outstretched hand by manuel.
extra time, theo grabs the ball in our half and dazzles past 6 manure players, a la anfield 2008, and bangs in the winner… takes off his top in celebration and reveals one fucking hair on his chest
they haven’t kept a clean sheet against the mancs at the emirates with this defence its not likely to change
No one gave us a chance in Madrid…
‘They’ll be happy if they keep it to 4′
We can do it…one problem,no arshavin
Right iv calmed down from last night had a
good nights siesta and now on to tuesday i
can see us trashing them 4-0 and fergie having
a heart attack and getting a helicopter to take
him to the brompton. dream on!!
No one gave us a chance in Madrid…
‘They’ll be happy if they keep it to 4′
We can do it…two problems,we had a far better team then we have now.
Pat in united’s clean sheet run vidic was almost present in all the involving fixtures whilst ferdinand was in and out with his back troubles. vidic hss been the best player this season IMO
Franchis
Even mancs say vidic is no good without rio.
come on did you all fall for the trick of thinking rio would be missing,we really are clutching at straws now eh????????
BBK-Did i see you suggest steve bould to
take over from AW with glen hoddle as his no 2
yes you did reggie
the player fergie lost in stam he has found in vidic
We had the best player in the world against Madrid, and those were the Galacticos. One of the weakest madrid teams.
Faceman, I’d rather it go into Extra time without the 92nd minute penalty. Too much emotion!
Eboue Kolo JD Clichy
kept a clean sheet at OT in 2006/2007.
Lehmann was the hero in 2006, Almunia can become the hero now.
Almunia
Sagna Kolo JD Gibbs
Theo Cesc Song Nasri
Ade RVP
Theo gets license to run whereever the hell he wants, especially diagonal runs to expose Vidic’s positioning. And who the hell knows how Evra will play. He’s been awful and still made the team of the year.
nutter
If rio is playing. One good dig in the ribs and he’ll be off again.
is rio any good without vidic? thats why u play with 2 cbs not one. and my manc friends think he has been their best signing in 5 years. its a matter of opinions
bbk – why not go the whole hog then?
get venables and gazza in as the new management team?
Glen Fuckin Hoddle are you on the gear or what.
face-fuck it,why not
lollllllllllllllllllllllllreggie
he aint on no gear, he is on fucking another planet that hooks up to earth’s internet.
reggie calm down im only joking gheez
Next you will be saying John Gorman will be no.3
Who have United signed in the past 5 years? Nani, Anderson, Berba, Da Silva brothers, Evra(i think)
vidic
Gibbs is filling in for Clichy much like Flamini filled in for the cunt in 2006.
So obviously Vidic was their best signing in the last 5 years. Those other players aren’t that good.
If we don’t make it, I hope barca fucking destroy them, i really do.
Didn’t they sign Howard Webb and Mike riley?
Gibbs is going to be a great addition… he looks so assured on the ball.
if we are to go to the final.
2-0 .. requires a clean sheet.
if they score 1.. we need 3 goals…
a tall tall order…
They count as free transfers GM!!!
the phrase they use is ‘vidic has been our best signing since ronaldo’
hey g.m did you hear about howard webb throwing his shirt in the crowd last week after they beat tottnumb
he’s due a champions medal aswell
Wenger needs to spend this summer. I’ve put up with Song(not Denilson), but its a fucking joke now. Our midfield is such shit and Nasri is still inconsistent as ever like he was for OM.
That’s funny bbk. He should have had player of the year over hairy cunt Giggs. He’s done more for the cunts than giggs
c’mon pat he’s only young he will get better
arshavin has been our best signing since pires IMO
If Rio is out, then Vidic will not be as effective.
he was nominated by most of the manc team for the c.r.a i heard
Evans is suspect
Franchise, Arshavin has been our best signing since Bergkamp!
arshavin has been wengers best signing
Nik being his cocky self and talking the talk but not walking the walk. He missed our best chance of the game and he’s still talking shit.
If Rosicky doesn’t get fit for next season, I would love signing Ribery. Lets all laugh at my delusional dreams of signing a world class player. Ship out Diaby, Vela(since AW refuses to play him). Get the Sakho kid, along with Senna or Alonso
why sign another inexperienced player its getting us no where
Rio is not out though. JUSTIN HOYTE, put in some dirty rooney-like tackles against the Mancs!
IMO the reason wenger doesnt sign obvious ready made players is cos of his desire to unearth players and take the glory. wenger said that ramsey was meant to be sm1 who would be an option this year he hasnt played since God knows when. Pat like u said nasri is still inconsistent. why dont we sign players like arshavin on a regular basis?
because franchise they don’t like spending the money on ready made players
I also noticed our players talk too fucking much. Who the hell do they think they are? The United players, for the most part, were pretty quiet before the game. Whilst we have Toure, Ade, Cesc, Nik, Nasti all talking before the game. FFS, shut your yap and play football you bunch of sissies. You got dominated like no other and you’re STILL talking. I’m really sick of these softies and I’m getting rather sick of Wenger’s obsession with this beautiful football shit. Manchester United play the same way the invincibles used to. We are soooooo damn slow now and easy to read.
pat- i agree with you 1000000000000000%
I’m sick of this whole fucking club now. I’d be okay if we at least showed some fucking effort and heart. The stadium is fucking silent, with the rich snobs going to the games and sitting quietly. The only thing the board cae about is saving fucking money and getting rich. Its a joke and I hope Gazidis will sign some world class players. I don’t believe, for one minute, that Wenger was behind the Arshavin signing, I really don’t.
to many of this lot talk the talk,but can’t walk the walk
pat be carefull before someone tells you to go support another club for being negative just a word of warning there m8
Franchise… I spoke to Geoff about Rambo this morning… why wasn’t he put on to replace Theo?
He is fast, tricky and can shoot from anywhere… it makes no sense?
Wenger flogs the average kids to death… but buries the good ones…
I read a comment on another site earlier that said something along the lines of,
‘I can’t believe it has taken till now for people to see how good song is playing… because he’s been playing well all season’
I wonder what some people see… even Wenger acknowledged he was poor…
whatever, not my fault this club shows no fucking ambition anymore. I do hope Cesc, Ade, RVP all leave. Maybe its the only fucking way things will change. The baggies put up a bigger fight against United than we did.
I wonder what some people see…Hmmmm
Pat, don’t knock the people in the Emirates… 38,000 of them were at Highbury.
Plus… just because you are rich, it doesn’t make you a snob.
BBK, I wonder what you see… you hate everyone.
At least you are consistent.
pat i was thinking the same thing,i just don’t see the players in question being able to step up to that mark,its a bit like wenger and the european cup it’s just something he will not win……
Our away support is fucking great, but at home its a whole different story.
Ahh, give me a few days. I’m just sick of going another year without silverware. There is no way in hell we’re scoring 3 with Rio/Vidic playing. There is also no way we’re keeping a clean sheet.
Next season cannot get here any quicker.
pedro i hate the way things are going at the club right now that’s what i hate
here.here pat well said m8
Pat, of course our away support is great… it’s a bunch of mainly young kids getting hammered in a different city each weekend.
If we were all like the away support, there would be a banning order in for the whole ground due to racism, drunk and disorderly and abuse.
I don’t see any reason to defend Wenger anymore. He rebuilds every fucking year. Chelsea dn United were both shit at the start of the campaign and this has been one of the worst seasons for the top 4. It was really there for the taking.
But I’ll tell you what, I’d love the scenario someone suggested earlier. A repeat of the ’99 FAC semifinal, but Arsenal coming out on top in similar fashion. I’d fucking love it.
Why do I hate United so much? Maybe cause half the fucking world supports them. yes, maybe that has something to do with it.
pedro how long have you been going to arsenal?????
first game I was 3?
pedro-19????
21 years
Well then you’ll have another loud supporter joining within 2 years. I plan to study abroad. London of course. Not sure if they allow 1st year students to do that though. Any universities close to the Grove?
To be honest, I’ve been a bit spoiled compared to the older Gooners. I’ve lived through the good times. But damn, 4-5 years without silverware already feels like an eternity!
London Met is next door.
pat-being a man united fan is being spoilt
Agony for Rio: Ferdinand misses United run-in after horror injury
However, he could return in time for the last game of the season at Hull, as well as the Champions League final in Rome if United make it through.
Ferguson faces another problem after it emerged that Liverpool are ready to exploit the deadlock in negotiations with Carlos Tevez and United by making a move to snatch the unhappy striker.
Tevez has indicated he is looking to move after a season in which he has grown frustrated over his lack of opportunities.
Who to believe?
exactly lolllllll
it’s a load of bollocks he’s going to play
Daily Mail also says Cesc is gone if we don’t get past United. Apparently, Ade is also gone and Roque is in.
I thin I’ll trust the Guardian over the Daily Mail.lol
Lehmann
Lauren Toure Campbell Cole
Ljungberg Gilberto Vieira Pires
Bergkamp Henry
What i would give to see that again.
Pat, that same team now? Or just watch that team again?
They are all so old and worse now…but i get what you mean. That team ad such great class.
Arshavin Cesc Flamini Rosicky
What i would give to see that midfield play together week in week out.
Greetings Arsenal fans.
Supppp BBK you manc loving twat.
only kidding
lolzzz.
Pedro how many goals have you seen Arsenal score?
Just asking!Lolzz
Nice one Pat, just telling thes truths
sum on here dont like it.
lolzzz
Many Turk, many…
Not being negative just telling it like it is.
most on here cant handle thne madd skillzzz when you bring it truth style to their Arsenal non undertstanding ways.
you feel me irish!!!!
lols!!
I hates teh arsenals.lolsss. i love the arsenal. most on here cant take that truth. lolzz.
pedro whats the first letter of the word “Arsenal”? just asking mate. sum on here need to face some truths. just saying! lolzz
Santa cruz is the answer and until teh Wenger understands that we aint winning nothings!!!
LOL @
nice one Stu!
Just looking on youtube has made me realise that i still miss Flamini. He was one of my favourite players and now that he is gone i miss the fuck out of him.
His energy, enthusiasm, drive etc etc But i know he is gone and all so i will have to move on.
Whatever the reason he left or the circumstances i still love him as a player.
I also found this on youtube. And it isnt at all funny. Just dumfounding….
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EWs5q9s7Sjk
Who can’t handle the truth Turk… tell me… what is the truth?
What are your mad skills?
Pedro, you cant handle it. He aint gonna tell you.
Stu, I definitely have mad skills… no doubt in my mind.
Kyle Maynard also has mad skills.
You aint gotta tell me Pedro. I belive in your skills.
The Turk is doubting you tho
….and Maynard has no skills. If i was the other fighter i would be ashamed for letting it last 1 round. But then again, how does one go about hitting a physically handicapped person. Lose lose situation.
Stu, there is no way I would have entered into that battle…
How did Maynard think he was going to take him out?
Pedro, you want the truth? you cant handle the truth!
lolz
nice one irish!
pedro how long have you been going to arsenal?????
pat-being a man united fan is being spoilt?
here.here pat. well said m8
lolzzz
God only knows Pedro.
Watching it i pondered myself how he could win. Cant knock anyone out unless they leg him, cant submit anyone without any hands for grip or legs for leverage and cant win on a judges decision because points are awarded for strikes to the opponent etc etc. There is no way he will ever win. Yet he believes he can.
Not letting a disability stop you from achieving your goals is one thing but being dillusional is another matter all together.
Turk, you must be on some strong stuff.
Turk, I can handle it… question is, do you know the truth?
I do…
Stu, I was thinking he was going to bite him…
Have you ever seen the cage fighter who was really tiny and he’d lock onto the other guys legs and make them submit?
Fucking amazing….
Oh… 21 years…
LOL!!!
nice one STU m8! at least you can accept the truth!
just saying.
nice one irish!
Nice one pedro!!!
look at some of my old posts m8!
yull realize i’m actually a man u fan!
just saying!
nice one irish stu!
lolzzz.
No Pedro. Never saw that little guy. Unless your talking about Ken Shamrock. He is the only one i know who locks onto legs…but he is a bit thick the way he does it.
The only way i see Maynard winning is if he shits himself and the stench knocks the other guy out cold. Otherwise he is in for a career of losses.
I might have guessed… your IP address is from Crawley… about 240 miles from Old Trafford.
Right, I’m off to bed.
Sleep well Stu… Turk, I hope your quest for the truth is successful…
Pedro
lollllll kunle.can somone confirm thr reports going around that ronaldo was in gibbo’s pocket?
PEDRO can you really see united not being able to score?
our motto has become the same as the spuds one NEXT YEAR!
another fuck up from wenger not signing yaya up.
yes irish lol
im with geoff i’ll back you up m8,wenger is a cunt
what about the past 3 seasons?
at the end of day there has been nothing to show for it’s all well and good getting to the final straight its the execution that is lacking,to me that show he has fucked up…..
look the tie is over people need to move on,the biggest game of the season is beating pompy on saturday now,the next two games in the league are chelsea and united we could easily lose both of them!
don’t worry rob we still got djourou and bendtner to come back!!!
lolllllculd you imagine bartley and ayling against crouch?
liverpool have won two trophy’s in our barren years and another appearance in the european cup final.
Nice one irish!
Ken shamrock?
over 24 hours later and I still can’t believe how bad we were. Let’s face facts we have one world class player and he can’t play in the champions league. United have three in their back line, one or maybe two in midfield and two or three at forward. I love Arsenal, but I’m so tired of us expecting to compete with 1/10 the expenditure of our rivals. Money buys class, look at Arshavin. Also, I just need to say that Adebayor making 80k a week in this economy is the best evidence ever that god is either indifferent or non-existent. Really.
Mad skills ?
yes id say a lot on here would qualify as having ‘mad skills ‘
in fact i would go as far to say most have mastered the skill of madness !
especially the ones who see something in ade and think he adds something to our team ..
You dont rate Ade Ethan?
blocked?
Some might call me negative , some might say im not a true arsenal fan , well i think the reverse!
a true arsenal fan should not defend the diaby’s ade’s and eboues of our world .. to do so only sets the club back further ..
get rid of the bad apples and accept no substitutes other than quality EXPERIENCED replacements ..
im sure 4 years of no silverware is long enough for a club like us , and the above average players , plus some poor management decisions are the direct results of our clubs failings ..
Ill fucking cheer when theres something to cheer about , when we have turned the corner ..
when we can look the manc’s and chev’s in the face and whip there asses 3- 0 on there own turf !
anything else is just 3rd or 4th place !
some might accept it and think we are the dogs bollocks for it .. well fuck off your not true fans .. the idea of football is too WIN !
TO BE A DYNASTY !
not to lose gracefully or show potential for years ..
if you like to lose gracefully watch fucking golf ! or if you want to watch potential watch the X games !
We play at the highest level of competition in the world , in the best league in the world !
we can compare apples with apples .we know where we stand .. if you have trouble following
where we are on the pecking order and its too hard , well feck off and take up knitting !
Imagine you are playing football manager. Would you voluntarily sign any of the following in your first choice XI?
1. Silvestre
2. Diaby
3. Song
4. Denilson
5. Adebayor
6. Eboue
Yet 5 out of the six were in the starting line up in a Champions League semifinal!!
We are confusing an easy draw to the semis with achievement in Europe.
Those six players will be never be first choice for any top flight manager other than Arsene.
The root cause is Arsene Wenger. It is time someone gave him a bollocking or replaced him.
With a new manager, I will have hope. With Arsene, I know what I will get.
ethan, you are consistent (something this team can do with). There is no shame in wanting to win.
I would rather win dirty than play gracefully.
A club reflects its fanbase. Our fanbase is full of AKBs. Full of softies who admire Adebayor and Nikki’s pink boots!
We deserve to have Arsene as our manager.
PDT
thanks , and i dont care how we win as long as we do ..
that’s why a lot of people accept , ade .. he is fine when he is getting TOP SERVICE , but then again wouldn’t any striker who can kick straight ?
Arsenal hit the highs because we used to have the top striker in the world ! Henry in his time was untouchable .. with the exception of AA , who still hasn’t shown us enough to really say he is a god , we have no one near the caliber of TH14 or bergkamp . viera, pires ,freddie on fire etc..
we cant match up against the quality of man U and the chev’s , debate all you will but id rather have deco and ballack on the bench than eboue and denilson !
and anyone who cannot see it , i just laugh at you in silence ..
this team needs QUALITY .. not potential …
because potential takes time to arrive ,
id rather have 11 players on the pitch on the same page than 50% of them being potential .
and whilst the other 50% wait for the potential to rise , there heads will turn !
its a revolving door of pain and i would like to be alone with wenger in a concrete bunker for 30 minutes and beat some fucking sense into him !
ethan say what you want about Ade,
But Pinkboots missed our best chance of the Game.
PDT
A club reflects its fanbase. Our fanbase is full of AKBs. Full of softies who admire Adebayor and Nikki’s pink boots!

———————————————-
totally agree , its like we owe him something ?
or the wanna be players …
maybe 4/5 years ago we did ! but to have it all and then lose it is nothing shy from a fall from grace ..
its embarrassing as a football fan ..
Geoff pin pointed wengers plans fairly accurately yesterday ..
if we lose RVP or ade he will just replace the leaving party with simpson or some other youth player …
Lets face it if we didnt shout blue murder in october/ november /december would we have got arshavin ? Arsene had to be pushed into buying .
thats what the fans can do ! so dont start being passivises and get fucking angry.
Also , would we have got AA if he wasnt a bargain basement special compared with his caliber ?
So even though arsene finally bought a top flight player , he only did so because he was
cheap and heading into the end of his career
more so than starting to peak in it .
A lot of people said at the start of the season they will pass judgment on wenger after this season is over ..
WELL NEED I REMIND YOU !
IT PRETTY MUCH IS !
Funny enough i dont think it was Wenger that pushed for the signing of Arshavin…Infact…If that was the case then he shouldve bought him in the summer. I think it was someone on the board that pushed for it.
I just find it funny how we have 2 billionares on our board and we deal with such a joke team.

pink boots wasnt on the pitch for the 1st 75 minutes !
and maybe if ade actually could stay on side or keep the ball at his feet without scoffing it he might of created a chance or 2 for himself !
its a fantasy we will never know the truth too because ade simply CANNOT stay on side ! EVER !
he doesnt know how !
also ade had a great strike in space which he kicked 4 foot over the top for the bar .
that IMO was the best chance of the game .
It would have been the best chance of the game if he was renowned for scoring further out than 6 yards .
