WEST BROM AWAY. CAN IT GET ANY WORSE?

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.

Our lack of pace could lead to a frustating afternoon of playing almost 100% of a football infront of their two banks of four, rarely threatening to get in behind them.

Having said that at least we won't have Diaby on the pitch slowing every attack down to a snail's pace.

This is the (or main) problem. D&D do not having 'counter attack' in their vocabulary. Taking them out will improve this team exponentially.

myprediction is if win tomorrow we will win league but difficult to seewinning tomorrow

my team would be spanish waiter( but i`d love to see mad jens in if fit)
clichy, kos, squid, sagna; jack, aaron, nasri, arseshavings, chamack rvp( widish right in his old holland role)

never want to see denilson diaby ever ever again and in summer they can bugger of with bentner eboue( an absolute disgrace to club`s reputation and not particularly good either) and spanish waiter.

looking forward to the good pubs we`ve selected more than anything

Was good against Villa away, and a goal plus an assist versus Orient.

Much more than Diaby & Denilson have done in the entire season I think.

Apart from the centrebacks I thought that looked pretty good. :oops:
I see where your coming from, but herein lies the problem. Names on paper.

Where's the backbone, where'e the strength, where's the balance, where's the leadership?

If we played man u on paper in the cup, we win. But in real life...

:cry: :cry:
If we're going to win this game, let alone the other 9, RvP is going to have to drag us through. He was the only one who looked remotely threatening at old toilet.

While ramsey and jack in the middle may lack some balance (who knows, it might just work :proudtosay: ) with very little pace on the wings we need players who can move the ball forward at pace and hit rvp/arshavin.

100 quid says Wenger plays the brazillian crab 8)

I think he will too.

I think that team listed above is very positive, looks like the sort of team that would create goals from every position.

I miss those days. :cry:

Its up to the players now to take some responsibility. No excuses.
