You seem very staunch on that point! Are you a fan of "phone fun" too Tom?
I do really apologise for my aggressive attitude, i was on the sauce and not really too sure why i decided to come on the forum - i got up this morning hoping i hadnt done something stupid, so please accept my humblest apologies :oops:
As for the phone fun, i quite happily watch it indulge in a tommy!! :wink:

Cant believe you have Andy Linigan in your team.Have you forgot the job he did in 1990 when TA went inside.Also what about his part in the cup double of 1993.Have you forgot about Blockley,Mancini and the worst player i have ever seen in an Arsenal shirt Igos Stepanovs.And what about Jeffers and Hankin(all 18st of him) upfront.


My best eleven is Seaman

Dixon McLintock Adams Winterburn

Pires Vieira Petit Brady

Bergkamp Henry

I understand your hatred of Stapleton he really did shit on us.At least Brady won titles in Italy when he left and O"leary eventually won the league with us.Stapleton never won a league title(Ha Ha)


Picked my worst eleven Wright

Mancini Stepanovs Ceasar Blockley


Helder Hillier Carter McGoldrick

Hankin Hawley

I have pick 4 centre halves as i cant think of any bad full backs.We always seem to have had good ones.Can anyone think of any bad full backs we had?

TS, in response to your questions re my team selection I have to admit that mostly my decisions are based on my personal view of the player & not his stats - eg

Seaman - arrogant c*nt who named himself "safe hands". Should not have reclaimed his position from manninger after the outstanding contribution the young austrian made in our double season. Finally refused the 1yr contract on the table with a promise of a coaching job at Arsenal for life & went to citeh only to be retired in 6 months anyway and expects that he should get the coaching job now anyway. I'm led to believe that wenger would not want him back now under any circumstances and that makes 2 of us.

I do like big Pat & willow but have to say that I do like mad jens especially since he is/was in a team with so few "strong personalities".

As for henry I have always gone with the motto "dont believe the hype & judge on what you see". I have always argued that to be classed as a great player you have to show it in big games and henry cannot honestly claim to have done so anywhere near enough to qualify either in an Arsenal jersey or france jersey. I know he is our record goalscorer and I agree that he was a great player for us but never imo world class like a Brady or Bergkamp and in the last few years he began to think the team was all about him. I also know that anelka is not popular amongst gooners but I honestly believe that he is & was a much more natural goalscorer than henry and this is an opinion that has been endorsed by no less a genius that DB10 so 2 great minds cant be wrong eh ?

Lastly how the f*ck did hillier not make anybodys worst 11 ?
