Interesting discussion on RTE, lads saying if we beat Fulham, then the pressure will be completely off Wenger :banghead:

Is it just me, or is Theo a cocky prick?

Podolski's work rate isn't the best tbh. But why he gets so few starts is strange. Not that strange though - Wenger's Alsacian, so half German anyhow :)

Hopefully (got positive hat on here) IF Wenger does try to sign players, the better ones will now reckon we're in the CL draw. Fenebahce were awful though but it's still a job well done and I'm pleased Ramsey got a goal as he played well.

So with CL qualification almost in the bag does it add an extra £20m into the war chest now, if so we're going to need a bigger swag bag to carry around.

Poldoski is a German (and Polish but forget that) and Germany invaded France, more than once.

Arshavin is a Russian and the Russians stopped the French under Napoleon taking Moscow.

I don't usually take any notice of conspiracy theories but this one might have legs.

And he only started speaking French when he was seven. So German is actually his first language.

That's enough trivia for one day :lol:

Apparently all is well in the Wenger Universe again! We don't need to sign any new players,the Manager knows exactly what he is doing,and any of us showing any dissent,or deviation from the true path should be excommunicated! Just for the record,I was at the "Villa" game on Saturday,and witnessed the shite that was served up in the name of Arsenal Football Club!!!

They were absolute dogshite but it was a very professional display. Should really have been a few up at half time and the fact we hadn't even tested their keeper before then is a bit worrying given how the game had gone but can't really complain much at the performance and end result! Hell even Szczesny had a good game (great to see somebody knock some sense into him!)

I will say that despite getting 2 assists Walcott was incredibly wasteful. Due to his limited technical ability he's never going to be a class act or even a constant threat every week but what he could/should be is far more clinical when he comes up against dreadful opposition like tonight. So often we had men streaming forward at pace with their defence all over the shop and the move broke down at him.

Apart from that I like Sagna at centre half - visibly organises things, reads the game well, doesn't overdo it trying to be a 'technical' CB and doesn't shy away from things unlike our normal pairing.

Yup, that makes up for the last eight years. 3-0 in a qualifier. Wow! Give the man a ten year contract right this minute!

Wenger's father was forced into the German army during WWII therefore hates Germans

Arsene Wenger started speaking French at the age of 7, that's in 1955/56

Morocco broke away from French rule in 1955 (Chamakh)

Also the Ivory Coast gained independence from France in 1956 (Gervinho)

Wengers mental problems clearly run very deep and for me it is all starting to add up :shock:

Oh please, so everything is perfectly fine after one game? Really think this squad will always win 3-0 against a poor side until the end of the season?
