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.

Remember Flamini a couple of seasons ago getting hold of Walcott's shoulders and plonking him in the box where he should be - great stuff. Hoping Cech will take command of his line and do some post pointing in future because he'll have a red mini bus in front of him from now on.
Oh God.
No offence, mate, but did you also think Song was a brilliant tackler? Captain Stupid Flamoney waving his arms and yelling at people never once stopped us conceding from a free kick or corner. The fucking idiot would be so busy giving it the large one he'd invariably forget to actually try and intercept the ball himself or he'd drift off the man he was marking (before we went to that zonal chaos shite). How many times did we see him pointing at someone else as an oppo player ran right by him with the ball? The fucking idiot.
I'm all for leaders on the pitch that lead and direct those around them (Tony Adams step forward ) but I can't believe there are still fans that think Captain Stupid waving his arms and yelling and pointing was in some way effective. It wasn't. It was all show.

Yanking DB10's chain, as BG once said
And quite the dirty little chain yanker he was!
Eh!? so you're admitting BG once gave you a hand job???
I would rather no FA cup next season and finish second but actually challenge and be near the top the whole year than win the FA cup and finish 3rd or fourth.
