Gibbs fires us to the European Cup final and Theo, trust the force.

by & filed under Uncategorized.

That does have a nice sound to it does it not? and it was true, only it was Ingerland and not Arsenal, but Keiran Gibbs did indeed take the penalty that put us through against the dogged Swedes. You have to say we saw flashes of brilliance in Theo but mostly he was quiet, Gibbs though is growing with every game, Gibbs reminds me of Clichy when Cole was often injured, he is knocking on the door.

Fear not though Clichy is still the man and we need 2 world class players in every position to get us through next season, and Gibbs can always play on the wing if needed.

When people talk all that shit about most improved player this season, Gibbs wins that by a country mile.

All these home grown quotas are bollocks really because reading between the lines you only have to go through the academy to qualify, so players like Coquelin, Merida and Fabregas already do and given the dearth of Brits we have already we won’t have to worry about that little rule, Simpson, Murphy, Lansbury, Wilshere, JET, Ramsey the list goes on.

It’s one of the reasons Wenger likes to stock up his youth larder, but as we have said before we still need some older players and thats why I don’t think he’s going to sell Adebayor. I still think there will be another centre back, I hope Zapata and then he will let one go and I hope that is Silvestre, and I still cling onto the hope he will bring in a defensive midfielder, though the more I read about Melo, the more I go off him, but as I say, I still haven’t really seen enough of him to comment.

I would even be happy if we traded Eboue plus cash for Sackho, Eboue wants out, we need a centre back, why not? Get on it Ivan, you know it makes sense. Don’t buy Bassong though, he’s not that good, really he’s not.

Finally on the defence, and I know this may sound silly but with Sol Campbell available on a free, wouldn’t he be more useful at the back than Silvestre?

I read Tottenham are after Cana, now that would seriously piss me off if we let that one get away, almost as much as it pissed me off watching ex-Arsenal defensive midfielder Fabrice Muamba running the show last night against Sweden.

You all know I have long championed Muamba, he is English, 6’4″ a powerhouse, with a ripper of a shot, Wenger sold him because he said he wanted first team football so he had to let him go, piffle, he sold him because he wanted you-know-who to play instead, big mistake boss, I hope you were watching last night.

If you let players go because they wanted to, then why is Adebayor still here irritating us?

I have often argued with Pedro about Muamba, well Pedro, I hope you watched the Ingerland game from your piss ridden tent at Glastonbury last night and vomited your cheap cider over the bloke you are sharing with when you marveled over the talent we let go last night.

If we had kept Muamba, we wouldn’t be scouring the bargain basement world of defensive midfielders now, as we would have what we need already.

I expect if we have to wait for a youngster to emerge now it would be Coquelin, I rate that kid though and maybe he’ll be worth the wait, I wonder if Jay Thomas could work that role, I’m not sure if he’s not too similar to Diaby though.

The only good thing about this side is they will be a little older and a little stronger next season and 2 or 3 players may just do a Flamini and turn into swans, if they do I really, really, will be delighted, but if they don’t it has to be time for Wenger to give up the ghost and get rid.

I wonder if J Simpson will feature this season, he has Senderos, Bishcoff and Silvestre on the first team sheet but no Simpson, why have we still got Bischoff, he only made one appearance last term and Senderos, who he tried to sell? It makes no sense to me, it does explain why we have no money though, I guess we still pay their salaries.

Interestingly though he has Song down as a defender and Eboue down as a midfielder, mmmmmm!

A message to Theo, Theo I now guess you’ll get your wish of playing down the middle, I would think Stuart Pearce may well play Rodwell and Muamba together to make up for the lack of front men and play you as the lone striker, you need to let your instincts take over, feel the force, forget what Arsenal have taught you (no shots allowed outside the box) and think of what Thierry did, shoot on sight, let rip when you have a chance and you will score, if you score then we will win and you will then begin to fulfill your destiny, and my prediction, that one day you will be the worlds finest player.

Theo let the force be with you!

Have a great day today Grovers, tomorrow it’s Ethan!

  1. Mayank

    Haha loved the keane comment… I’d read it a long time ago i’d forgotten about it. Agree with every word. Can’t turn off the commentary though.

  4. ManGoonian

    Stu;

    Of course I am the better man, you know it and I know it and Im sure Bill will be honest enough to admith that too…

  5. Honest Bill

    Mayank, yeah but you can ignore them and formulate your own opinions. I’ve lost count of the amount of times i’ve heard idiots give me ‘their’ opinions on a game, by quoting verbatim, something Andy Gray said during the game.

    If it weren’t for the fact that they weren’t bragging about how good they used to be at headers, i could swear it was him sitting there

  6. Stu

    There was a commentators strike in NBA or something in america a few years ago. The people watching at home liked it so much more without the commentators that i think they all got fired (or something like that).

  7. Mayank

    Geoff maybe keane didn’t care about the money, maybe he just wanted that even if half the people come out to cheer the players they should do it with heart and not act as if they’re doing them a favour coming there.

  8. Geoff

    Ok Bill why don’t we have silent TV then with no opinions, unless of course it’s just to blow smoke up Arsene Wengers arse, oops sorry we already do, it’s called Arsenal.co and ArsenalTV

    Stu Keane had a go at Patrick and he was my hero, so I hate the cunt..

  9. Stu

    Well Mangoonian. Show me some proof and i will admit it and im sure Bill would aswell.

    Bill was kind and helpful so for the time being he is better. Its up to you to change that! Simples!

  12. Nick

    nice one kelsey gonna have a rec to see if i like it 1st never been to the main land,like the sound of northen Cyprus as well.gonna try and have a week there this year as well spondula permitting

  13. Honest Bill

    Geoff. I just advocate people coming to their own conclusions without Andy Gray telling them what to think. Of course for those who are unable to do so, a commentary option should be included.

    And so what if he had a go at Viera. You don’t hear Viera whining about it do you? No because Viera gave as good as he got

  14. ManGoonian

    The bit about nRichard Keys as well tho…. What a snide agenda driven clueless cunt he is! The amount of times he tried to create shit where none existed, particular remember Arsenal v Wigan game, when Kirkland was time wasting from about the 5th minute, and when Henry scored the equaliser (or winner?) he gave Kirkland the ball and was all pumped up, as you’d want and expect your captain to be after a comeback, etc… But no…

    Not that hairy hands twat! He tried to make out henry had brought the game into disrepute, and said he oughtta come out with a public apology and tried to get david platt to agree with him…

  15. Mayank

    I can’t remember the amount of times i’ve been arguing about a fowl for the conversation to be ended by “even the commentator said so”. Andy Gray for instance does what i think is a fair analysis but always adds his own twist to it like “He didn’t get the ball but it was an honest challenge”

  16. Stu

    MG, it was in fact an OG and Rosicky scored the late winner with a header.But i see your point. The ammount of leading, clueless questions he asks is amazing. He actually knows nothing about football.

  17. ManGoonian

    Geoff;

    How the fuck did we get from discussing the pros and cons of football pundits and commentators and people bloing some kinda smoke up Wenger’s arse??? :roll:

  18. Geoff

    Bill it’s TV without TV there would be no money, to say commentary should be an option is silly really.

    As for Vieira no whining, so what? I said that another reason I hate Keane, he’s a sneering little shit.

  19. Nick

    i dont listen to the commentary a lot sometimes they do talk utter shit and try to make it all about them “when i was a player i ran round everyone twice before id score a goal and got paid in luncheon vouches” now days……

  20. Geoff

    Because Bill was banging on about what Wenger has done for football in the same breath as having no commentators.

    He said they will still be talking about Wenger in 100 years.

  21. ManGoonian

    Geoff;

    Those were Keane’s quotes tho, fella!

    Funny, Keane being more supportive of Wenger than some of the Gooners eh???

    Boom Boom!

  22. Mayank

    Walked out? He admitted that he’d harm the club and left. Maybe if Southgate had walked out ‘Boro would still be around.

  23. Honest Bill

    Geoff. Why is it so silly, that i should have the option to turn off the inane drivel without having to turn off the sound effects.

    And your having an issue with Keane is blinding you from the fact that he was the captain of our biggest rivals. Of course He and Viera used to have a go at each other, who cares?

  24. zorr0

    Af’noon all!

    So we debating anture v nurture, paedos and commentators and Roy Keane being a cunt!

    That’s what I love about this list, lol, such variety.

    Lions look out on their feet unfortunately!

    Fuck me what a kick by Jones!

  25. Nick

    mayank he left coz he was a cunt and most players hated him and he wanted more money to spend and was told to take a jog and he didn’t like it

  26. ManGoonian

    Frankly, after his anti-Sky comments, Keane was gonna get pure shite from the media, if he had stayed at Sunderland, IMO…

  27. irishgunner

    Football would be boring about commentators we’d have no one to give out about and some are good in all fairness. George Hamilton is funny because he can never remember who is playing.

  31. ManGoonian

    Where would we be, if we didnt have Jon Champion and Craig Burley to slate??? Oh shit! We dont have em now, do we!

  33. ManGoonian

    Of course, he’s at Ipswich now, Im sure he is big enough to dela with any media shit…

    I think we are veering off the point here tho…

  34. Geoff

    MancGoonian it’s called biting the hand that feeds you and that’s what he’s done.

    Bill I’m going to leave you all to have a Roy keane love in, I’m an Arsenal fan and hate the bloke, I’ve watched him cheat us for years, I’ll be back when you want to talk Arsenal.

  40. Honest Bill

    Haha. well I’m an Arsenal fan and i like the bloke. But it wasn’t me who began veering off the topic of Arsenal. We’d all be talking about pop music and our childhood issues had i not interjected.

    But fair enough.. Let’s talk Arsenal

  44. Stu

    That fella Gabriel M……. the italian/american fella who said Melo is defo signing for us.

    The cunt was on chelski TV today discussing their season with the other chavs. What the fuck is that all about?

  47. ManGoonian

    Marcotti is a media slag bitch, in the pay of who ever will offer him the biggest meal ticket…Maybe?

  52. ManGoonian

    Erm, anyways Stu, we are sposed to be discussing Arsenal ONLY now, please, keep within the guidelines or else…

  56. ManGoonian

    I see what you did there Stu, and i like it! Cheeky!

    Right, here’s my team for next season then…oops, almost tripped over some tumbleweed then…

    Buffon
    Sagna Hangeland Vermaellen Clichy
    Essien Cesc
    Silva Arshy RvP
    Benzema

  58. Honest Bill

    Yeah was only talking crap Stu. I’ve never even seen Cana play. But yeah your guy looks good in that montage.

    ManGoonian… No David Villa?

  59. ManGoonian

    OMG! SSN are rehashing the Ade to Milan BS based on those Galliani quotes now! FFS! Its a slow news day for real…

  62. ManGoonian

    I really hope Theo signs off for the summer with a great performance in the U21s final on Monday…

  64. Honest Bill

    Me too ManGoonian, But i suspect he won’t if he’s played up top on his own. Although he still may, you never know

  65. ManGoonian

    Maybe Gibbs can play on the left wing or in the middle to give him a few quality npasses to run onto?

  66. Honest Bill

    I’d like to see Gibbs on the left actually. I think his talents may be a little wasted at the back

  70. Mayank

    “I am always comfortable doing the hard work in the middle, for me it is an honour,” the 32-year-old destroyer told FIFA.com. “It’s what I was made to do. For me it’s simple: I do my job in the best way I can and support from deep. If I do my job, then the other guys can do theirs and be creative, score goals. Look at the players we have – Kaka, Robinho, Luis Fabiano – they don’t need Gilberto Silva up there to help with the creating!”
    We need someone younger with that mentality.

  77. Stu

    Its a shame that there are no DMs that are both physically dominant and a great runner aswell. Its either one or the other.

  80. Stu

    What else is there to talk about tho…

    Potential signings has been done to death, as has arsenal players we want gone. There is nothing much left…unless we are overlooking something else obvious.

  81. Mayank

    Yup Stu same with defenders regarding pace and height more or less. That’s why arsenal have a hard time finding defenders.

  83. Stu

    Kelsey, how dare you question my intellegance just because i dont know about things that were relevant from before my birth!

  91. irishgunner

    Kelsey – if there is a village idiot here it must be me. I’m so into celebrity that I condone kiddie fiddlers don’t you know.

  95. kelsey

    At least you have got a sense of humour Stu, that’s worth a lot (I think)

    Irish,
    I will not be drawn into that one,but i understand what you meant.

  104. irishgunner

    Ha ha ManGoonian I’m far from a “sweety” when something or someone winds me up, the claws come out.

    Kelsey – Glad someone got it. What an awful thing to be accused of condoning and making excuses for child abuse. Then again our own manager has been accused of it and I have wrote several letters to no avail to the FA and other media but it doesn’t seem to cause too much of a stink with other people does it?

  111. ManGoonian

    Irish;

    Don’t get me started on the Peado chants Wenger has to endure, that the FA & media completely condone by ignoring them and letting the spuds and mancs fans get away with it…

    Funny, how they decided to jump on Arry’s Pompey player Sol’s abuse… Effin hypocrites…

  113. irishgunner

    ManGoon – I’ve wondered why it doesn’t bother Arsenal fans more. I’m sure it does to a degree but I don’t hear too much of anyone doing anything to try and stop it. Suppose in the last few seasons we’ve been more interested in finding a stick to beat him with.

  114. Stu

    Fine so Kelsey. I was at the gym yesterday and found out that my body percentage fat is 6.8%. Thats a figure to rival professional athletes.

    Now ye can all get jealous!

  115. Honest Bill

    Irish. The trouble is you can’t really stop the idiots all chanting shit. The best way to combat it, is to beat the shit out of them on the pitch

  116. kelsey

    isn’t Old Harry still on bail.Much more serious accusations there,but not a word about it in the press.

  118. Geoff

    Irish you need to let it go go and read your comment at 14.58 where you said you put a lot of his weirdness down to his dad.

    He was a pervert, that was down to him, if you want to carry that on fine, if I were you I would move on, don’t make this into a row.

    Kelsey what do you mean by, you understand what she means?

    I have kids Irish, you know that, I cannot see anything endearing in someone who sleeps with kids, nor will I hear excuses made for them as to why they turned into king size fuck ups.

  121. irishgunner

    Honest Bill – The Spurs fans got fined and banned for the chants they sang at Sol Campbell. This has been going on for 13 years and the FA from where I stand haven’t made any attempts to stop it. I’m all for banter at a football match but there is a line that shouldn’t be crossed and the Wenger chant crosses it for me.

  124. irishgunner

    If you go back to that comment Geoff I just said he was an oddball and eccentric, never mentioned the pervert stuff, you brought that into the conversation and then it snowballed from there.

    From where I’m sitting you are accusing me of condoning child molestation just because it happens to involved a person I greatly admire as an artist which isn’t the case.

  128. kelsey

    Geoff,

    i understood what both you and irish were implying,but i don’t want to be drawn into the subject, and certainly not into a row.i will say a lot of it is conjecture and honestly I am not sure one way or another regardless of what I have seen or heard.
    in Glitter’s case i believe it was proven without doubt,

  130. ManGoonian

    Geoff;

    I aint getting involved in a row here, but i think how people are brought up, particualrly extreme conditions and behviours will have an effect on the child as they grow up. I can, if you want get some research (Stu, you reading this?) about it as well…

    But, what i cannot get my head round is, the fact that the abused child who grows up to become an abuser, when they know full well that the shite they do is illegal, etc…????

    But let’s move on…

  132. ManGoonian

    HB;

    Hey fella, just my Facebook photos page mate… Or I just typed six pack in google??? Cant remember…

  133. Geoff

    Nick – I put down a lot of Jackson’s weirdness to his father who pardon my french seemed a complete bollix. What kind of man beats up a five year old for not dancing right and tells him he’s ugly. He never had a chance. That was your comment Irish.

    I don’t care if you admire him, I couldn’t admire anyone that thinks sleeping with 8 year old boys is Ok.

    Let’s leave it at that then.

    Kelsey MJ admitted he slept with 8 year old, what more needs proving?

    Leave it there and move on.

  135. Geoff

    I hear you ManGoonian, it’s beyond me, there is no degrees to being a paedo, I only slept with an 8 year old is like saying ‘I’m not a murderer because I only killed one person.

    Anyway as I said, best to move on. This is just stifling debate.

  136. Stu

    What i dont get about Peados is that they are all gay(generally) :???:

    More often than not its stories of boys getting molested. I dont get that at all.

  143. Honest Bill

    DOn’t know why RVP doesn’t use his talent more often. It seems as if he’s lost some confidence. If he can get it back he will be pretty special
