The Ox is also playing strangely enough.

Gotta love the text commentary - Goal for West Brom - An in-swinging free kick is headed beyond Mannone by Adil Nabi.

Conceding from set pieces all the way down to the U-6's. :lol:

Lard arse Santos has made it 1-1.

I too thought, fancy that, a goal conceded from an in-swinging free kick. It's bloody inherent throughout the club!

P.S. 50 minutes gone and still no injury for Diaby.

He's been subbed off :barscarf:

65 minutes without spontaneously combusting , it's a miracle of modern science.

Keep me posted on developments chaps. Nice to hear the Great Man back out on the field again - managed to get a freebie for the cup replay against Swansea so hoping that the twinkle-toed genius might be in the squad

I notice that Rodders and co. forgot to include this part of the live update

GOAL FOR ARSENAL! Diaby's pass is expertly dummied by Frimpong into the path of Santos, who confidently slots past Daniels (45) 1-1

...and this

Diaby has settled in well to his first game since September. He's been calm in possession and strong in the tackle (41) 0-1


So in 45 minutes the Great Man is already doing what he does best i.e. being the most inventive player on the park, setting up goals with slide rule accuracy in the pass and driving his team forward to another comeback. The modern day invincible is back !

Another reason to be proud to be a Gooner

At least we'll be unbeaten for that month - something we haven't managed for a while. 45 mins and already an assist :barscarf:

It gets better too...

Arsenal have started the half the better of the sides, with Diaby continuing to orchestrate proceedings from midfield (50) 1-1

Arsenal make their first change as Diaby makes way for Conor Henderson. The Frenchman has impressed on his return from injury (65) 1-1

ABOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUU

Frimpong has just been sent off for a second yellow!

Some things never change.

So the black Messi "impresses" against WBA's stiffs :lol: Get him to sign a contract extension fast before all his fingers fall of.

I love the fact that Diaby is 'Like a new signing' in probably 3 or 4 of the past windows. I am just waiting for Wenger to say it to the press.

I am thinking in the last week of the window when it is clear that we won't be signing anyone. :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf:

Is that from Pravda? :rubchin:

I'm reading that as:

"GOAL FOR ARSENAL! Diaby miskicks the ball, it spins off Frimpong's shin and bounces into the path of Santos, who miraculously scuffs it past Daniels (45) 1-1. Diaby pulls up with what looks like a slight strain (45+1). Diaby is on a stretcher (45+2). A team of Paramedics has rushed onto the pitch (45+3)."


:-P :wink:

Now when that day comes mate there will be a massive SteveO celebration BBQ. The Wenger extension BBQ will be like a trial event before the main one

The Modern Day Invincible has risen once more :barscarf:
