todays penalty

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.

Too right, some of our fans can never be happy, you will always get a few of them who would still be moaning if we were World Champions, people like that need to count themselves lucky it's not the mid '80s.
I understand their frustration. Actually, they are nicer to Eboue today :lol:

the stadium announcer is a joker :barscarf:
Is there anyone you are not going to whinge about? it was a 4-0 win, just enjoy yourself for once! BLOODY HELL!
1. please explain to me how that is whinging?

2. im not whinging, im just saying the stadium announcer thinks hes a bit of a comedian, hes only saying goal machine coz he scored last sunday v burnley. and yes i am enjoying the fact we won 4-0 and arshavin scored a quality goal, for the 1st time in a long while i didnt waste my money by going to a game, i actually saw some goals today, so im very happy.

In my opinion Almunia should have taken the penalty, he's never going to take an important penalty so why not give him the chance to score a goal?

I never thought of that either! But I still think it would be worth the gamble

When idiots are slagging players for scoring a goal, I've a right.

Sending up Almunia for a pen could be seen as disrespectful to the oppostion in a league match with still a lot to play for in the season.

An end of season game or friendly maybe. It is a very cocky thing to do when we haven't exactly been playing well this season.

Agreed. When I point out how stupid they look they get defensive.

We get defensive because you don't point anything out. You just say you can't believe we don't support all of our players.

We won 4-0 and it could/should have been more - be happy ffs.

I'm not an Eboue fan, but fairs fair, the bloke scored a corker last week and put two away in 10 minutes today. The only thing he did today that you might want to critique was the goal celebrations, personally I enjoyed both 8)

Lets hope that they can play as well or better against Hull in the week.

Good luck to the fella.

As most of you know I don't like the guy but while he is scoring goals we should enjoy it.

I must admit I enjoyed his celebrations and they were partly responsible for the relaxed and happy feel around The Grove after the game.

8)

Well said gusher - the few idiots are the the dicks who come on here moaning about everybody else's opinions without contributing any of their own :roll: This isnt the 1st time lately I have felt the need to knock another member for this shit and it really is a pet hate of mine - criticise the players/manager/board, praise the manager/players/board but for fcuks sake express some opinion of your own rather than sit back and knock anybody for being honest enough to share their feelings and thoughts and you might actually gain some respect and feel better about it :roll: :banghead:

Eboue was a selfish *word censored*. Arshavin thought he was on a hattrick (even if he wasn't) and was very pissed off about not being allowed to take it. How is it good for team morale if arguably our best player is robbed of a hattrick because some useless dick wants to show off.

I'm really pleased we won. First game I have really enjoyed for a long time. Been through loads of shit times as a gooner, so don't bother with insulting me.
