I is telling yas awl that there is nuffink ,nah nuffink,like taking the piss at the lane !
Although one would have preferred if they could have let us out a bit earlier, might have saved their pathetic Banners !

Flamini was ace and showed he cares if nothing else took both chances superbly !

Greedy brainless mercenary he is but a goal at Stamford Bridge in a big game in 2008 and now two at the Scum. And he was rewarded for busting a gut to get on the end of attacks, the sort of dynamism that we seem to miss too often.

Ospina was superb too. Can't remember the last time I saw an Arsenal keeper come and take so much responsibility in the air. He was coming miles to catch crosses and a great punch near the end - I like the bloke even though he isn't good enough to be number 1.

It was a piss-poor game quality-wise - the only player who looked a cut above for me was Chamberlain although unfortunately he couldn't do anything with it. That said he had no help whatsoever - Giroud can fuck off back to whatever tinpot French holiday resort ball club he came from - if they'll have him. Anybody who thinks we can win titles and CLs with this bloke as our #1 striker needs their brains dashed against a brick wall.

Debuchy was scarily bad - not just getting skinned but over-committing so much that he was letting Rose in behind time and time again. For the goal both full-backs just stood off their men as they'd rather let them get an unchallenged cross in than roast getting skinned - complete lack of confidence in their defensive abilities. Don't blame Chambers really.

This Ramsey farce has got to end. Whatever you think of his ability and whether he can ever recapture his form of 2013/14, he has been playing so poorly for as long as I can remember yet somehow remains an automatic starter. The best thing for him and the team is for him to spend some time on the bench.

Sanchez coming on changed the game. It was embarrassing how much better than anybody else he was, looked like he was playing against Sunday league players.


Apart from the game being piss poor quality wise, it was a game that lacked any intensity and that shocked me tbh :shock: Before the game henry and redcrapp were bigging up the rivalry/hatred between the two clubs and spoke about the passion and intensity in the game, but what was on display was a poor showing from 20 players (I'll exclude the ox and ospina) who didn't seem to give a fcuk :oops: As you will all know I am anything but a flamoney fan, and I normally hate his stupid fouls/bookings, but at least last night his booking for clattering rose showed some proper determination - maybe I am just feeling that way after some of the ridiculous/stupid red and yellow cards we have accumulated of late, but I felt ok about it coming as it did just seconds after Campbell got clattered in over the advertising hoardings 8)

Re giroud, it is a sad state of affairs that see's him as our number 1 striker - even alan smith acknowledged during the game that he is our best striker (when surprised me given that his rival is his compatriot wally) but it is also a sentiment that I agree with :oops: People defend le cock on the basis of the huge transfer kitty also has to pay for wages, but fcuk me there is a bountiful amount that would allow him to go out and buy a benzema/cavani/lewandowski or some other top quality striker, and the fact that he hasn't should be a sackable offence on it's own :roll: Tbh I would rather have Charlie Austin or papiss cisse leading all line than giroud or wally :oops: :oops:

Shouldn't you be in court, as Arsene's fluffer to cheer him up for his divorce case?

Fantastic result. Just what we needed and a performance from Flamini that goes a long way to repairing the damage he done when he walked out the club in 2008. Feel a bit for chambers, not going for him at the moment but I think he needs someone to put an arm around him and coach him.
Gibbs goal line clearance won the match, same in the cup final 2014. How many times does Nacho do that? Never, Not once Gibbs is a better defender, needs to play more often. Quality of the game was not great but beating them was more important.

What a night, our box was right next to Ledley King's. Allan Mullery was also there.

We also had two spuds in our box, one was ok the other one a bit of a *word censored*. We where restrained when we scored the first goal but when Flamini volleyed the second we went mental. The looks from Ledley King and Mullery will live with me forever!

Even though we didn't wear our colours we stuck out like a sore thumb, both in and outside the stadium. You tell the diff between a casual spud and a gooner, it's just like having that sixth sense!

Giroud absolute shite again.As for Campbell how is he still at the club


He plays for the ££££ and don't be under any illusions thinking otherwise - a quick look back at his employment record will show you the importance/priority he has given to money in his career
In general I agree with this. However, a quick look at my employment record would show a similar thing. Whilst employed by somebody though I always do my best for that company.

Really pleased with this result, always good to beat those wankers at there shithole

Only sour point being 10 Arsenal lads arrested for ripping up bits of cardboard in a light hearted way.....

Outside the ground there was thousands of scum breaching the peace, and committing all sorts of offences, including threatening behaviour, did not see any of them getting arrested

if one Arsenal had reacted guaranteed he's nicked.....the old bill......total disgrace

Well the nice people of N17 got a shock when 120- old age pensioners got off at Bruce Grove and started marching up the high road and growling at the natives who panicked like stampeding wildebeests at the Zambese river .
Afterwards wtf was was that wait all about , complete shambles from their OB .
Your Choice is blend in with the spuds and hope u dont get sussed or wait in the ground for 40 mins .

When you say damage do you mean feelings for him? that I am not sure about, one cameo does not a hero make (Unless you are a Spuds fan :wink: ) anyway I doubt we will see him play too often again

Re Nacho I remember him volleying off the line at home V Marseille 2 seasons ago- cannot agree that Gibbs is better. His injury prone big time and doesnt quite do it as well as Nacho now- Nacho is deffinately better in most ways than Gibbs at the moment.
