DIRTY LEEDS F.A. CUP 3RD ROUND THREAD
chesney- great save from the header but needs to work on kicking still
eboue- cheat,diver,disgrace,liability,embarrassment
djourou- really impressed by form of late,proper presence at the back
squillaci- whoever saw this guy and paid money for him needs sacking.backpasses to a rookie GK were shocking and he's clueless
gibbs- if, IF he can stay fit then clichy will never get a game again
song- starting to really love this guy, workrate is top class as is ball winning and charging forward.just wish you lot would stop laying into him as a DM, HE IS NOT A DM,HE IS A MIDFIELDER.
rosicky- was so excited when he signed.spent the WC that year scoring long range screamers but offers nothing for me
denilson- why keep giving him a game? clearly not even close to being good enough for us.Mr sideways who worries more about his pass completion % than cesc style thru balls
barry bender- absolutely shocking AGAIN.cant shoot,pass,hold the ball up or head even when unmarked 6 yards out.worst by a mile today even against a team a division below!
arshavin- lazy show pony who thinks he can backheel every pass and get away with it. disinterested pussy who can fuck off fot all i care.
chamahk- dont know whats happened to the guy? should be starting more games but on todays evidence can see why noy.needs to up his workrate like start of season.early days tho
wenger- just fuck off and take these flops with you.after all,you bought them and insist on picking them.you used to be a god at this club but are starting to undo all the incredible work you did.
to sum up.................Owen Coyle please
dosen't stand prima donnas,overpaid flouncey cocky bendtners and makes his players come into work with a smile on their faces because they are lucky to do what they do. new ideas,new players.and dont forget what fat sam left him with? a bunch of long ball merchants with sharp elbows that couldnt string 2 passes together without "lumping it"

This has angered me nearly more, what goes through his mind?RNTGOONER wrote:Walcott has admited in interview that he dived today !
Silly boy, I like his honesty but will probably get hammered by media now
Said he told the referee as well, "how didn't you spot it Phil" he said.
He changed the game today but I honestly don't understand how some of these players are so fucking dumb. I thought they done exams and continued education etc?
No penalties again now Feo, you fucking idiot...

I was there and Bendtner was shocking. Him and Eboue nearly gave me a fucking heart attack. As many have said, our second string are just not good enough. Please learn from this Arsene. (not holding my breathdvbrisgooner1 wrote:I see we've moved to the default setting of slagging Bendtner. Not his finest game, but to mention him in the same terms as Rosicky, Denilson and Eboue today is really not on. Perhaps it looked a lot different on the TV.

I have no idea what Wenger was smoking but taking off song and leaving on crap like denilson, bendtner etc was a joke.
Also to the guy who said we could do alot better than song, why? I thought he was fantastic, and has been playing fantastic recently and was fucking shocked why Mr Knows took him off.
Squid is fucking garbage and have absolutely no idea why we bought him.

AA23 is so uninterested, lazy not bothered it drives me mad, it is so frustrating someone with so much talent should offer so little in terms of effort- talk about living off the four goals at Anfield, people cane Super Nick, but the guy actually makes an effort, and do not forget peeps he is easing his way back from a long term injury

He is diabolical - can't pass can't shoot head control and his first touch is appalling. Super nick?

Was today a watershed moment for some of our players? I wasn't at Wigan end of last season, where obviously the frustration would have been palpable, what with Flappyhandski giving the game away. But today, wow, I've never seen a crowd on the back of so many players. Eboue, Denilson, Bendtner and Arshavin: I'm not sure if any of them even want to play for Arsenal.
Then they should fuck off.kg1794 wrote:Was today a watershed moment for some of our players?

There are some people that bemoan the fact that the same old players are 'picked on' but there is a reason for this - and that's because they keep producing performances not worthy of the Arsenal shirt!! Not the odd game here or there, but almost every time they play.
Those same people then fall back on the Alex Song example, claiming that because people are being proven wrong about his capacity to become the player he has, it means they're wrong now on this lot, and that the others will automatically make the same step up - conveniently forgetting that when Song was being called shit, he was shit!!! When and since he started playing better, most of the critics acknowledged his improvement.
All clubs through-out the ages have had players that for one reason or another didn't command the admiration or respect of certain groups of their own fans. Yet just how much longer do we give the likes of Denilson, Bendtner and even Diaby to prove that they are of sufficient quality to play for a team with supposed aspirations of being the best? How many more disappointing performances do we need to see before we can make an 'informed' judgement?
Similarly, why would fans want to pick on a clearly talented player like Arshavin, if it wasn't for the fact that his effort, attitude and body language were shockingly bad?
As for Eboue - I didn't think my disrespect and dislike of his down-right cheating, never mind his ineffectualness in defence, could plummet down any further but it does every time I see him in our shirt. It's absolutely shocking that no-one at the club as pulled him up about it and I've no doubt that now the refs have sussed him out, we will get unfairly punished by refs denying genuine fouls because of the reputation we're getting. I would personally drive him all the way back to the Ivory Coast in a heart-beat if there was a chance of jettisoning this joker!!

As long as we are paying them wages they dont earn they wont be leaving voluntarily.To think Wenger gave Denilson Bender and Eboue contract extentionskg1794 wrote:Was today a watershed moment for some of our players?

And the question is would any of us really care ? Seriously most of these players should be nowhere near our 1st team anyway so who gives a fcuk if they want to leave ? Lets all help them pack I say

Right now if I had a voodoo wenger doll I would be sticking pins in it all over the place



Rosicky was not the main issue today. He's a player in his 30s who knows he's no more than a filler player these days through injury & better players in his position. He hasn't scored in a year but mainly through lack of playing time.
Denilson & bendtner should be using these games to prove their worth and hunger and neither do. But bendtner on the wing is a joke - his touch and control are too poor to play so close to the touchline, he can't cross and he isn't quick thinking.
Squillaci proved today that it's he not Kos who is the weak link. His backpasses were woeful and he seems to lack confidence which is unusual in a player of his age and experience.
AA23 was shocking. There was one pass he let go out of play that Nasri, Sagna, Clichy, Theo would have been on and had pinged back in the box. Instead the Leeds throw in and regroup. The crowd are really turning on him and it seems Wenger has relegated him to second choice so I can't see him sticking around. A shame because if he only applied himself he'd be unplayable. A waste of talent.
No point analysing Eboue. We all know the problems there but Sagna is out and Eboue seems content to be back up. Too often he left Squillaci in the shit though.
But my main feeling today was an overall lethargy and team's collective poor attitude. Early kick off, second string team, championship opposition, carling cup almost sewn up...they just looked like they couldn't be arsed and expected to walk it or weren't driven as they are part-timers.
However I take comfort in the fact that this isn't our first team & those that are shone through. You can't have a brilliant 2nd team unless you are City and even then it creates issues when talent is on the bench. But Wenger should have fired them up more regardless. More kids like Lansbury & sczezsny & Ramsey and it might have been a more impassioned performance. Too many of these players know they will not be first choice again at Arsenal.
