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.
I'm surprised nobody's mentioned the worst moment of the lot - giving the ball away, leading to a Huddersfield shot on goal, and then laughing once it had gone wide. What's so fucking funny, you disrespectful *word censored*.

Highlights include:
- 4 times trying to shield possession on the near touchline, only to fall on his arse losing the ball in a laughable fashion
- Careless backpasses
- Leaving the defence wide open throughout the match (part of the reason Squallaci saw red)
- Having a great chance in the box, only to fall down claiming injury. Lying down looking like a serious hamstring injury for several minutes leaving the team down to 9 men. Only to sprint on a minute later, faster than he moved all day.
Have I missed much?
Only that he's key against Barcelona imo. Just to put the cat amongst the pigeons. Don't think Wenger will start him tho.
Along with Almunia and Bendtner, Denilson is in my top three for an immediate exit. They will never be good enough.
Best way to prove it is to put them out on loan where they can get a regular starting spot and put it beyond doubt that they will never make the Arsenal grade.

Unfortunately, his only competition is himself. I didn't think he could play worse than he did against Ipswich but for the first time ever he exceeded my expectations !
