I know that it is only a friendly (as BFG has just said) and I don't feel that this qualifies as le cock finally beating moaninho c.unt, but I do think that it is important to beat a team that we haven't beaten in a long time 8)
at long last the players might finally believe in themselves,time will tell :barscarf:

One thing which pleased me, and it may be only a minor thing but Ozil looked a lot happier, even when things didn't work out for him his head didn't seem to go down he kept plugging away.

Happy with that. 8)

Today showed Theo's limitations though. The game passed him buy when we needed him most. Chelsea were getting on top and we had no outlet as Theo isn't great at holding the ball up and was never going to win balls against Terry and Cahill.

And in the first half when he was in full stride, running at the Chelsea defence, he took the wrong option, played a poor pass and we lost the advantage. It was typical Theo really.

He makes good runs and will score goals, but you need more from your lone striker. We instantly improved with Giroud up front... but then again, we lose the option of the ball in the behind as he has no pace :(

We need a striker.

great performance though :barscarf:

Pretty much spot on, Theo can't hold the ball up (or even win the initial challenge) Giroud can't run with the ball

Wenker said it was either or. depending on opponents ( at last - take the opponents into account when picking your team / tactics)

Giroud last season was hopeless against terry and cahill as well. Terry loves playing against strikers like giroud.

Yes, we desperately need a striker. Could make all the difference.

Agreed. Kudos to Wenger for snubbing that horrible fucking bastard at the end there. All the shit that prick has said personally about the manager and the attacks on the club and he fucking stands there like the ego maniac he is looking for a handshake? Fuck off.

I'm 100% anti Wenger but if hypothetically he were ever to read the shit I say about him on here and he were to meet me someday I'd hope he'd tell me to go fuck myself.

Delighted. Fuck the dirty chav vermin *word censored* :barscarf:
