The 1st goal conceded tonight!

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.

:barscarf:
Based on what I read here its a much higher level other than the over moderation and thats not saying much as its pretty piss poor. Wow you can say c**t, suddenly the forum is amazing. c**t off.
No, people on here can make coherent arguments, backed up by relevant facts.
I think you been drinking if you believe that.
I can show you evidence then...and show you your posts in comparison.

But I guess it doesn't fit into your general wind-up nature on here.

You need to learn to be polite.

So a WUM is someone who supports the team and defends the players? No wonder you think this forum is so great where you get to do the opposite of that every day.

Is that real?

If rumours are to be believed (the Sorenson bid in Jan, the 'chest infection', Amy Lawrence on arseblog saying Wenger had lost faith in Almunia after the Chelsea home game but couldn't find replacement), then I think we are maybe seeing the back of Al this summer (god willing). Even the stats that Wenger loves don't support him.

How many times have I seen Gallas, Sol and Sagna shot him death stares this season? I can't believe Wenger is completely blind on this issue. Last night he said "Almunia didn't see it" which seemed like a thinly veiled criticism.
Hmmm, yes it did somewhat, the thing that really worries me about the Almunia situation is why Wenger persists in making him captain in the absence of Cesc? :?
I think at first it was a confidence boosting thing. Now I think it is for lack of better options/ too late to change. Gallas won't take it, we know. Sol isn't a guarenteed starter or permanent player and basically captains when on the pitch anyway. TV5, an obvious choice, is probably too young in Wenger's eyes. I think RVP actually gets it in Cesc's absence usually.

Clichy? surely a better option than Al, in the absence of Cesc and RVP. I do agree though, it probably was a confidence thing giving the armband to Al in the first place. :?

No, did I say that? No, I didn't so again you're wrong. :roll:

Everyone supports the team and players and there are differing views. That's what it should be. But you would rather make outlandish statements with no evidence in realtiy or fact, regurgitate your own threads at first opportunity, and have a go at people who are making assessments of our players. How about defending them with reasonable arguements and opinions, it would make this a better place.

This is your reply, to yourself, in your almunia thread...

Almunia our number one future England number one and the worlds best.

I rest my case.

What about Tommy V as captain? He captained Ajax last season... Below average Al is here to stay i fear or why would Wenger make him captain?

Agree T.V. would make a great captain for us, (in Cesc's absence) but too soon imo, especially in his first season here. :?

In Cesc' absence i cant think of anyone in the team better suited than Tommy V. Lets face it Wenger make Almunia captain, the worst number 1 keeper for us in years, so why not TV in his first season?

Yes, true, just thought with him being in his 1st season and all, it maybe prudent to give the armband to Clichy, when all the others are unavailable. I have to admit, it breaks my heart when I see Almunia flipping the coin. :cry:

Seeing Almunia as captain proves Wenger doesnt care about or rate the role of captain anymore, how can this instill confidence in the rest of the team?

I dont call other players *word censored* and threaten to attack them or want them killed. I did not say where my least favouriteplayer lives trying to get people to damage his car and property which I saw aimed at Almunia on this very forum which you think is so great.
I could defend him rationaly but what would be the point? There would be to many people just saying *word censored* so all I have done is just go down to there level.

I said this on the main thread last night. The amount of goals we gift to the opposition is ridiculous. Nearly every big game we handicap ourselves with idiotic mistakes. Well people may say in most of our games we have been convincingly outplayed by the top sides, and yes i would agree to a certain extent. But ask yourselves do you remember any side scoring a 'screamer or well work goal' against us. Where you could say that player error weren't at fault?

Man United away earlier in the season. Gifted two goals.
United at home this season.
Liverpool away.
Chelsea away.
Birmingham away.
Barca at home. Destroyed for the first 20 mins, manage to keep it 0-0. Beginning of the second half we gift them the lead.
Last night.

I'm sure they're many more...
