i was at the city game but in with the city fans who were so quiet it was beyond belief - was itching to join in with our outstanding supporters but self preservation won out in the end and i kept shtum.

great support all you lot who were in the away end on saturday, made me proud to be a gooner ...

im too young to remember lee chapman (im 22) but nik reminds me a little of john hartson stylewise - thing is id rather have big john over pink boots prima donna every time cause the guy worked hard!

sorry to start another thread about the man - id totally forgot bout the pink boots - says it all really, get him outta here!

although there is certainly a general malaise about the squad at the moment, Nicklas Bendtner is driving me bloody crazy. yes I know that our midfield is shocking and he isnt recieving the service that Arsenal strikers of previous Wenger years have recieved but that is no excuse to be such a lazy ...

good - an excuse to rest him, hes been poor this season, this gives diaby the chance that hes been waiting for - as a CM proper, not just behind the striker

thats the easy target though, blame the club

since when have they prevented you from breathing?

never prevented me from breathing - but heavy handed stewards with the whole 'no standing' issue (when the away fans get to stand unmolested all game), no flags, to my memory no initiatives to boost ...

to be fair, its very hard to say that X isnt a 'true' fan if they dont sing, the 3 guys who sit behind me havent missed a home game for upwards of 30 years, they are ARSENAL through and through and know their football inside out but ive never heard them sing or chant because its obviously just not ...

couldent have put it better if i tried

they played pretty well in the 1st half then reverted to long ball - and guess what, we cant fucking deal with long balls or anything in the air and it WORKED for them.
We on the other hand carried on pottling around with the ball, playing 20 passes to allow villa to get back into the box before ...

villa were the better side all game - curtis davies, hes a player we could use, committed, good in the air, good on the ball - worth spending 10-15 mill on IMHO.

Bendtner is awful , thought he was poor vs united and couldent make any impact today. Simply not enough pace, especially to be playing up ...

its on sopcast as well....

same team as against united - come on you reds!

cant sack wenger - weve had plenty of successful managers before ut him and HC are the 2 greatest y a fair distance i the venerable history of our club

HOWEVER he certainly has fucked up this season by not buying what we need and tbh even if he was going with the youngsters strengthening the squad ...

on the money there augie - almunia doesnt have the botle for the big games (yes this def was 1 even though theyr at the bottom). ade is a bloody disgrace at the moment, yeh he got us 3 points on sunday but went missing today - mr 'im as good as thierry henry' is an arrogant bottler

Yeah maybe for sure he looks knackered but its the refusal to go all out to buy someone experienced and solid in CM this summer as well as a centre back (as everyone keeps saying) that was our prob tonight - if this season is abject then cesc going to barca is def more a matter of time than anything ...

giving cesc shit is definately not the answer - wenger should build the team around him not build it on faith on denilson (who was very good for 89 mins tonight ) well played arsene - you stick to your guns play beautiful football right up to the final whistle, doesnt matter how many we concede as ...
