Anderlecht at home

OK, understand, thanks.

Not always easy to infer what another poster means on here.

Quartz, you misunderstood.In my opinion,voiced here a long time ago, he has been a bit off/shit for a long time now.I have grown to hate him, and he sums up all that is wrong with the club.I don't care where you play him,if you have no pace,no attitude and can't hit a barndoor,it probably won't work out.He will be one of the first out the exit door if we get a decent manager.Sky commentator said 2 weeks ago that it's amazing Cazorla has never scored in Champions league.It doesn't amaze me.[/quote]

Footballs a fickle strange thing, but the difference between the manager of the Great Lincoln City and us is that they will learn from it- the hairdryer was on so full we could hear him in the stand next to the dressing room. I just cannot see our manager doing that, and thats whats needed, some passion, die before you let in a 3rd goal.

Grrrrr..... so maddening, but the thrills and spills of 2 3-3s in a week is too much for me. :oops: :oops:
Another good point there. As we were under pressure at 3-2 we were backing off, not putting the work in to stop their momentum. When it got the 3-3 they were absolutely throwing themselves into tackles at any given opportunity (often giving away fouls to break up any forward movement of ours), doing anything they could to hold on to what they had got. It might frustrate the crowd but it is the professional thing to do.

I absolutely hate it when Wengers bangs on about our spirit and desire, the evidence never backs it up.
I don't always agree with Merse, but he was spot on last night. Clueless defending, no leadership from players that should be able to take command of the situation on the pitch. Anyhow the slim chance we had to win the group has gone,so we can now await our fate in the next round. The final curtain.......... :cry: :?

I would love the boys & Wenker to prove me wrong mind! :barscarf:

its the same night as Forest V Brentford mate, and the Bees are offering free coaches.....a packed ground, two teams playing attractive football with attacking flair, good cheap beer, and all for 22 quid - no competition is there ?
It's not easy to make this game seem attractive but compared to a midweek 5-6 hour round trip to see two mid-table teams in a league full of cloggers slug it out in a pretty ugly stadium I think you've managed it!
oh ye of little faith - Brentford are 3-0 up at Forest. BBC Radio describes the Bees support as "noisy" :barscarf:

Straight from Pravda

Amid the disbelief there was a tinge of relief. If Arsenal were to squander a three-goal lead at home for the first-time ever, better to do it when a draw was not fatal. Champions League progress is still well within reach.

And the bigger picture looks brighter. Three straight wins and two straight clean sheets preceded Tuesday's episode; a bad half-an-hour should not cloud a couple of solid weeks.

FIVE GAMES....FIVE GAMES UNDEFEATED......FIVE GAMES....FIVE GAMES I SAY......FIVE GAMES...FIVE GAMES UNDEFEATED.....LETTING THREE IN THE ARSENAL WAY

I beg your pardon......I never promised you a rose garden......

Clearly not True - Wenker flaps his arms, he wrings his hands, he tries to do up his zipper and he berates the nearest official about anything and everything, unfortunately there is no time left to actually manage the team, change tactics according to how the game is playing out, or outsmart his opposition manager.
