Watch it and weep

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

Agree re getting behind the current team but NEVER forget your past! That's what sets us apart from much of the classless billionnaire playthings around today.

We are The Arsenal. We have no god given right to be successful but be proud of what we have achieved and believe that one day we will be great again!

Wenger out! (Is this a hi-jack?) :wink:

DB10 had more talent in his big toe than our entire squad have got now.

We can only dream of having players like him in our side now. Imagine having DB10 and TH14 back upfront, Pires and Ljungberg supporting from the wings, Vieira, Adams... the current team is complete shite compared to them and if that doesn't tell you how far we've fallen, nothing will.

Yeah, get behind Theo Walcott, Alex Song, Abou Diaby and all the other legends of the future. :roll:

Truly Great and Wonderful Memories...we will Never see his like again...it makes me both happy and sad to see film of past Arsenal Legends...how we could do with his genius now........I remember watching the Invincibles with my older brother (God Rest His Soul) and he said to me:

'Remember these times brother cos in years to come we'll all shake our heads in disbelief at just how brilliant they are'

I just can't look back at those clips of our glory days yet. It's still much too painful to watch without comparing how bad we are at the moment to how great we once were. :cry: :cry: :lol: :wink:

I thought this was the centre of your argument.......Wenger can't have lost it because he did so well for us a decade ago :? Now we aren't allowed to look at when Wenger was good... but you use this period to back up your own argument about the present coming good. You can't have it both ways. :banghead:

Yeah, because I'll never want to relive moments that great players like Bergkamp, Adams and Henry have had in our great shirt. I've got more reason to cheer and celebrate what those legends have done then our current crop of 'stars'. :roll: In a few years time out of our current bunch we will thankfully only remember the likes of Wilshere and Robin.
