The defining moment has arrived! You’re on your own.

by & filed under Uncategorized.

So Arsene Wenger has said his team cannot be regarded as kids anymore and it’s time to show what they can do against the likes of the chavs, he said last years mauling was the nightmare week of the season, well has a year made a difference? We’ll soon find out, what will he do if we lose, give up the experiment?

The thing that worries me after that comment, is we sold two top players and bought in an unknown, yes he is world class, our very own Martin Keown again, but considering we were already 2 players short, it was an odd decision, because in my book and DB10′s book, we are still 2 players short.

Ok forget that because I think this team will win, I just hope we do it by playing football and not by matching their kicking lumps out of us, I also hope we do it in style and make them look like the mugs they are, it’s time someone put the bully boys from west London in their places.

Not sure what the team will be, but I’m going to have a guess here.

Almunia

Sagna Gallas Vermaelen Eboue

Rosicky Song Cesc

Walcott Eduardo Arshavin

Or

Almunia

Sagna Silvestre Vermaelen Traore

Nasri Song Cesc

Walcott Arshavin Rosicky

Let me say this would be the team that I would pick (the first one), and I put Song in there because I think we need the aggressive type of player in midfield, and as far as he’s concerned, the players he’s up against are the real enemy, Ghana and Ivory coast, he will have an African point to prove and I’m backing him to do it, this is where we will all see how he matches up against Essien, I think he will want to prove something here.

I have a feeling though we’ll see the same midfield as we did midweek and Denilson will be in there. The opportunity for Wenger to play Song, Denilson and Eboue all at the same time may be too overwhelming.

It’s also time for the forward line to prove just how good they are, Walcott was supposed to be the saviour of England, now’s the time to prove it Theo, don’t forget your first ever Arsenal goal came against this shower of shit, we need to get down the wings and open them up, something we didn’t do against Sunderland or Liege, I’m surprised Wenger didn’t tell them that at the time.

Tomorrow they’ll be no hiding place, tomorrow we show how good we are, or far behind we are, tomorrow he’ll either see he has enough to win the league or not enough and has to buy.

The great Dennis Bergkamp has said two new players would do it, that’s all many of us have ever said, still if we beat the Chavs with the team that the boss believes are good enough, then I will start believing, and indeed consume a few helpings of humble pie, and I really hope I have to.

Alex, I’ve picked you ahead of Nasri and Ramsey who are flair players and Denilson, who for me is a defensive midfielder, I hope you show me why I was wrong to doubt you, I hope you kick lumps out of Essien, but save a few for Drogba, don’t forget a bit of African pride here!

Only a day to go Grovers, let’s hope the Villa get a draw against the spuds.

    Forlan doesnt really count as a manc…simply because he was sshit for them. Had he won them trophies and such then he would certainly be classed as a cunting ex-manc.

  4. Mayank

    Geoff I’d like us to get a striker too but i don’t think our season is going to be decided by our attacking prowess… If our defence holds we still have enough players that can score goals…

    I remember RvN was on fire when Man U had their you score 3 we score 4 phase…

  8. Stu

    Seeing as its the close season there now i think shopping in the Russian League would be a smart choice. They play decent football over there and would be used to the bad weather. Zhirianov, Anyukov, Denisov and ov’s we can get hold of really.

  13. ManGoonian

    I think RvN would be a good shout as he is surplus to requirements at Real, he needs to play for his wolrd cup place, he would be free, or very cheap, he has bags of experience of the Prem and can score lots and lots of goals…

  14. Mayank

    type 14 into google and see the suggestions…
    There are too many paedophiles in this world… Or they might be 14 yo boys…

  20. ManGoonian

    As a player for the mancs, I effin hated him, that game where he punched Freddie in the stomach and raked his studs down Cashley’s ankles summed his cunting cuntiness up for me…

    BUT, lookin at the bigger picture, ie, our hopes of winning matches and therefore trophies, he COULD be a good option… Although, its just an opinion and he may well be too much of a crock to be relied on…

  21. ManGoonian

    Yo yo Zorr0! easy there fella, all good!

    I am finally over my lurgy, so work on Monday for me! Hooray! And I mean that! You should see the foxy babes who work at my place! And its xmas party time!!

  23. reggie57

    Hes a fuckin cheating manc cunt! hill-wood said “we dont want his sort around here” and il agree with the fat etononion bastard ha-rah!!

  24. Stu

    Im sure there is someone out there that is a real poacher and hasnt played for the mancs that would be available cheaply. If Fulham were able to get Montella a few years ago when they were a relegation team then im sure our vast scouting network knows of someone.

  29. Mayank

    That won’t work Stu,
    We have that in Eddy, I think we need a winner who been there done that… Also we need someone who’s on his way out…

  33. Stu

    Well if we already have that in Eduardo then whats the point of getting RVN?

    I dont have RVN because the majority of his cuntingness was before i was really a football fan and i was a fan of his when he actually played for Madrid but i just dont think its a good idea to get him in. Especially with his injury record over the last few years.

  34. ManGoonian

    If Wenger has a player that he likes, that he sees as a long term player for us, who he was gonna go for in the summer who would cost a fair few quid, then he oughtta sign him in January…

    If he doesnt have a player in mind for long term, then we need a short term stop gap signing…

    Henry and RvN are the 2 bestest ideas I have seen…

  35. zorr0

    All good lads. Nice 3-1 win today against a fairly solid team. Keeps us top!

    So we talking about rvn coming as cover in Jan? Can’t see it, rather get numbnuts or spend a decent amount on a top quality striker. Unless Nik comes back soon as I would like to see him get the job in the middle.

  40. ManGoonian

    Well, hopefully Bendy will be back in a week or 2, that will give him a good few games up top and if he does well, the nI am sure, the job will be his…

    goonermichael;

    I’d love Simpson to come back and do a job for us too…

  41. Hig

    What about signing makelele til the end of the season, to cover when song goes to the african cup of nations and as backup for the rest of the season. i know he’s old but he would do the job

  42. Stu

    Bendtner is gonna come back, be fucking brilliant in the CF role with goals and even more assists and VP wont be able to get back into the team. Then we will sell him to Madrid in the summer for 50m. I have inside info on this.

  44. Stu

    Van Nistelrooy? Makelele? I know they were brilliant once but surely there are more players out there than old rivals! How about we go for Dietmar Hamann next.

  45. ManGoonian

    Stu;

    Yep, that is definitely whats gonna happen man…

    Hig;

    I was thinking of Makelelelelelelelele, not sure how he’s doin in France though…

    At this rate, we will have a team full of cunts from our rivals!!!

  49. Samir

    Nistelrooy is 33.
    Could last a season or 2.
    If we are going to buy that bugger then I would want M.Diarra aswell.
    5M for the both of them please?
    Them two along with one of Richards,Sakho,Subotic or an another Vermy type would be quite nice.

  52. Mayank

    “Thank God. A New CF is coming in January now. Surely.”
    DOn’t want to dig you out but was the message to god because of RvP’s injury?

  58. Samir

    Wenger needs to get to work A.S.A.P. and find the right player’s.
    I have a feeling he will surprise us all!!!!

    February interview with Wenger.
    “I believe we have enough quality in this squad, that is why I did not buy. Yes we had money available but we have youngsters coming through. Buying players would just kill them” BLA BLA BLA….
    You get my drift?

  60. ManGoonian

    Larsson did a job for barca at 35 or something, RvN could do a similar job for us for 5 months… Don’t get me wrong, I would really love a different player to come in instead, but I can’t think of anyone else?

    Fucking hell! Lennon dives, gets the free kick and he was “fortunate” to get the decision, while the spud commentator doesnt even mention it… Wankers.

  61. Gunnersmith

    gooner786 its as ManG said the season is very unpredictable

    And add this to that

    Spurs stuffed Wigan 9-1
    Wigan beat Chelsea 3-1

    :-)

  62. Pedro

    I reckon Eduardo or Vela could do a job.

    We can’t all moan they never get played… see them in a couple of games and decide they’re shite.

    RVN would work because he knows the Prem… but Chamakh… well, he’s not prolific anyway and he’d have to bed in…

  67. ManGoonian

    Pedro; Bendy, Vela and Eduardo could all work, but they all can be played in different front 3 positions too, so a short term signing could work. I’d be against signing CVhamakh in jan, I’d rather we waited till the summer for him… If at all.

  69. Pedro

    You’ve spent most of the season telling us how RVP isn’t good enough David… and I’m pretty sure you threw a street party when Nik picked up an injury.

  70. Stu

    Clearly i just asked the question. I never said you were happy with it. But saying thank god because now we will but a CF doesnt exactly make you sound upset about it.

  75. David

    I have always re-iterated we needed a striker RVP Injury or NO RVP injury.

    Whether RVP is good enough to win us tittles is yet to be seen.

  79. David

    RVP is great if we’re playing Pompey or Wigan.

    But we have failed in just about every “big” test we’ve had this season.

    So it neither proves he’s good enough or not.

  83. David

    Well Stu

    Tell us about how We’ve tried to Sign Gignac in the past but Wenger reckoned he didnt have the extra 50p to make the deal go through.

  84. Samir

    I agree Chamakh would deffo take a while to bed in. He could be amazing for us but we don’t have the time……

    Out of our next 7 EPL games (Until January) 4 are at home.
    We have Liverpool,Burnley and Portsmouth AWAY.

    We should be able to keep up until January at least!

  85. Stu

    Not to mention we have a record number of goals this season with VP playing and his first game out we fail to score. If that doesnt show how important he is for us then nothing does. It may be just 1 game but it was against a shit team and we created next to nothing.

  87. Stu

    Well David, i wouldnt know anything about that. And anyway it seems that you just told the whole story. Even if i knew what you were talking about i wouldnt be able to expand on it.

  104. BayGooner

    The only reason not to play Denilson is if he is unfit to play twice in a week yet. Otherwise, he will provide additional steel for a midfield that will have to work extra hard for the adjusted back four.

  105. ManGoonian

    David;

    We are playing a different syatem this season, RvP is THAT striker, he has been involved in almost every goal, and was just getting to grips with a brand new position. Not every player could do that, they wouldnt have the skill, talent, intelligence to do it, but RvP did and quite effin brilliantly, if you ask me…

    Sheeesh man, your hatred of bendy is fair enough as it seems most Gooners need a scape goat or a pet player to hate, but your views on RvP are quite bizarre, if you ask me…

    I really do not know what you see, or what you want… Something that doesnt exist, probably…

  108. ManGoonian

    Baygooner;

    I would play Denilson, if fit. Depends though, he looked pretty jaded by the end of the game vs Liege… If not him, then I imagine Nasri, or Ramsey even…?

  109. David

    What are you people on about?

    I love RVP.

    Is he good enough to win us a tittle? Or a trophy?

    If we play Chelsea in a cup semi final. Or the Mancs in a final?

    Did you not see how Mancity kept him quiet till Button head mistimed a tackle.

    Hatred? Really?

  110. Samir

    Denilson is an important player. Against Liege he played behind Song allowing him to push up and dominate the midfield higher up.
    Denilson used his intelligence to intercept balls etc.

    I hope we make the same sort of start we had against Liege.
    Loads of pressure in their half.
    Get an early goal.

  111. David

    Bendy doesnt come into the conversation when we’re talking bout strikers.

    The fuck we going to place our tittle hopes on a consistent fuck up.

    Seriously?

  114. Pedro

    David, of course Robin can score those goals.

    You can’t ask whether he can do it in big games, then told he has done it in big games, make a crap excuse as to why it doesn’t count.

    He’s always going to be quieter against better teams… because better teams have better defenders!

  117. ManGoonian

    I know I am goin on about this John Champion commentator dude, but I remeber watching an Arsenal game last season…. Him and that scot cunt Burley were slating us, relentlessly, EVEN David wouldve had a problem with the abuse we were getting… I expected it of the Burley twat, but couldnt work out what this twat Champion’s problem was… Untill recently,when he was outed as a spud…

    You can’t ask whether he can do it in big games, then told he has done it in big games, make a crap excuse as to why it doesn’t count.

    ========================

    RVP + Big Man = Score Goals

    RVP – Big Man = Ineffective.

    Thats the gist of the Argument.

    Crappy excuse? I think the prob is that most gooners are not being honest enough with themselves.

    It why Wenger has the most Secure Job in football even if we dont win skint next 5 years. Its why Arshavin is a breath of fresh air.

    We got smashed by the same CHav team 4-1 at home that Featured RVP and Bendtner.

    And by all accounts Tomorrow is a must win.

    So crappy excuse or delusional. I think the latter is a fair assessment.

  120. Pedro

    He’s scored against Fulham, 3rd best defense last year. Man City, Spurs.

    Last year he scored against ManU in the champs league semi, quarters against Villareal, Roma in the last 16, Liverpool, Chelsea… what more do you want!

  121. Pedro

    David, RVP – Big man = 8 goals, 8 assists and the most team goals ever at the start of a campaign.

    I think your problem is you’re always looking for problems.

  122. ManGoonian

    Erm, I think Robin has done quite well in goals and assists this season. Even though he had a fairly slow start where a few were saying he was wasted up front (cough, David, cough!)

    And when I say wasted, i dont mean he was off his nut, either…

  123. Stu

    This season is proof that you are wrong. VP minus a big man this season has had a direct influence on 16 goals.
    And all those without a big man up top.

    Also when we lost to the chavs last season Bendtner didnt come on until we were 3-0 down so i dont see how you can blame him for the score…but you wouldnt be David if you didnt.

  124. David

    Give me RVP stats. I’ll give you Denilson Stats.

    Who makes the difference when it matters?

    And by when it matters i mean when we play the big teams and Silverware is on the line.

    I think its hilarious we’re having this discussion and RVP cant even seem to stay fit long enough to win an argument.

  125. ManGoonian

    David;

    You keep coming up with ridiculous arguments to priove your increasingly bizarre arguements mate…

    We lost 4-1 to the chavs at home and we beat em away. You cannot take games in isolation… I would even suggest that 4-1 loss was a bizarre old game anyways…. We were all over the,m shouldve been 3-0 up at half tim e but were 2-0 down! Plus it was right after the CL semi 2nd leg, when our season was basically kaput!

    As Pedro says, I think you are looking for issues and problems way too much…

  126. Pedro

    David… what sort of a dumb statement is that?

    Goals and assists are tangible stats… that’s what you judge attacking players on because you can’t really argue with them.

    We’re not talking about completed passes or shots on goals here.

  128. ManGoonian

    RvP is a forward, his assist and scoring stats are kinda improtant… Denilson’s attacking stats are more a bonus as he has other jobs to do, you know…? make the tea, fold the shirts and iron the socks…

  129. David

    What sort of Dumb statement is what?

    What do stats mean when we play to win Silverware or to beat the top teams?

    Seriously. Read. Then Understand. Then Post.

  130. Stu

    Oh so all that counts is trophies and not a players stats. In that case Djimi Traore is better than all of our players because he has won the CL. Lets get him on board.

  131. ManGoonian

    Again David, you are moving the goal posts to suit your argument, IMO… You say RvP is shite without a big man, that has been disporved, so you change the criteria of your argument…

    Lets just leave it, I reckon its for the best! :D

  132. Pedro

    haha!

    Read: David says goals and assists aren’t important

    Understand: I can’t, it’s a stupid statement

    Post:

    David, dumb post. What are you talking about?

  134. Confidentgoner

    For Chelsea

    ==========Alumina============

    =====Gallas=========TV======

    Sagna =====================Sylveste
    ==============Song========

    ====Rosicky=========Dennilson
    =============Cesc============

    =======Arshravin=============

    =================Vela========

    ————————————————-

    =============Drogba=======================
    ===================Anelka================

    ==Malouda=======Lampard===============J.Cole

    =============== Essien==================

    Cole======Terry=======Calvarlo(Alex)====Ivanovic

    ===============Cech==========================

    Notes:

    Chelsea attack will come mainly from the left, via Malouda with rebound shooting opportnities for Lampard and Essien.

    If Anelka is allowed to roam, he could end up with some shooting opportunities, especially if Gallas is still injured.

    Chelsea may prefer Alex for spot kicks and heading opportunities and for pace against fast paced Arsenal attackers. My personal opinion is that they are better pairing the two rather than the distraction of John Terry, who will be the weak link.

    For Arsenal Midfield and defensive strenght ARE importantg for this game, with the ability to shoot from distance as the Chelsea defense will be tight. This would have been RVP and Bendts game.

    Would not recommend too much overlap for the full backs as Chelsea are good at exploiting this once we loose possession upfront or in the midfield. I would prefer Sylvestre to Eboue who is far more attack minded as Left back.

  135. David

    ManG games in Isolation?

    Did Ade not play when we won at Stamford Shite?

    Did he play when we lost at home?

    RVP works well with a big man…Bendy is too shite.

    Ahem…Your Witness.

  137. David

    Pedro Says:

    Toushe. Never said that. One dumb post deserves another.

    ==================

    See post at 19:24 :cool:

  139. ManGoonian

    confident;

    Yeah, Sagna should curb any desire to over lap on the right, although I think Traore should be able to get forward OK, as he has pace to burn and a good engine and the chavs dont really offer much on their right as Bosingwa is out…

    A very nervy 2-0 to the Gooners!

  140. Pedro

    ‘Give me RVP stats. I’ll give you Denilson Stats. ‘

    What does that mean then David?

    Or were you literally going to give me Denilson stats?

  141. Stu

    Us play a diamond too Confident?

    And we shouldnt have to worry about verlapping fullbacks is Silvestre is playing. He can hardly run as it is.

  142. ManGoonian

    David;

    My witness is this season… Where have you been? What team have you been watching? RvP as the main man has been a revelation!

    Please, desist! Leave it, its way too weird for me!

  143. ManGoonian

    confident;

    I think Traore will start fella.

    Something like;

    Almunia
    Sagna – Gallas – Vermilli – Traore
    Cesc – Song – Denilson/Nasri
    Rosicky – Eduardo – Arshy

  144. David

    Also Eduardo and Vela are both left footed attackers that are similar imo.

    If one plays as a winger like what Vela was doing against Standard…

    Where does this leave Arshavin?

    Hmm.

    Big CF needed. ASAP.

  147. ManGoonian

    I think the 4-3-3 means we dont really require a big lump of a forward, instad the fliudity of the play and interchanging of positions allows for lots of attacking threrats from all over, we can basically have a front 5 at times…

  148. David

    It means Stats flatter to deceive when it matters.

    ManG

    I hear you fella. But to bang on about goals scored against poor especially lower half and then before we get a chance to blink he gets injured is stretching the truth abit about this season.

    Come now fella. Surely you understand what im trying to say.
