Bergkamp IS GOD! ..SO GO F*CK OFF!
Take that cock out of your mouth Ewok. The touch WAS "Bergkampesque". To disagree just because it is Giroud is churlish and petty. You Ewok ceeunt!
Tbf DB if he hadn't have been pushed in the back as he went for the ball he probably would have missed the ball altogether

Solid mature performance minus one little hiccup- 2nd half was really strong. What a pass from Verm to even find Giroud- those are passes we haven't seen much of since Theo got injured. Poldi was fantastic- He and Verm on the left was solid. Santi looked like the little magician with a big heart once again- never allowed even the largest swarm of defenders to bully him. Lots of forward passing, something that's been greatly missed.
As for the "Bergkampesque" comment- the bitchy folks need to understand the comment and just shut up already. No one is comparing Giroud to Bergkamp, and no one believes that Giroud is a world class player, or even that his contributions outweigh his liabilities. The comment is in reference to one touch and finish- ONE! That's it. Most players at this level can imitate that a least a few times in their career, and it is reminiscent of what Bergkamp did all the time- that's why the move was Bergkampesque, not the player- doing it once, whilst beneficial in this instance is fantastic, doing all the time is a different story, one of class, one that no one would compare Giroud as a player to. So stop getting your panties in a wad over it.

Yeah I saw it too, very curious... A lot of the team looked pissed off tbh.

hmmm... noticed Mert bitching at Kim too, not in a constructive "get your finger out" way either, it looked whiney and spiteful. Maybe the pressure of being also-rans every fucking year is finally getting to the pampered millionaires that currently wear the shirt...
Apologies if it was covered off earlier in the thread, but I wondered what the story was with the West Ham fans last night? There appeared to be virtually none in the ground for the minutes silence, and then all of a sudden their section was full. Was this a deliberate snub? And some of their fans - on the concourse maybe? - were making noise. I heard someone shout "Shut up c*nt" in response !

I thought I heard that on the telly last night, Mick, but then thought "Nah, couldn't have been". They are classless fuckpigs.

But they've got excellent team spirit and togetherness, so I don't know what the fuck you guys are talking about.

Similar at Everton the other week. BFG had a right shouting match with Sagna after the first goal (..or second, one hammering just seems like the last ) Know there should always be questions asked after a fcuk up but this seemed a bit too edgy. Any one think Podolski's goal celebrations looked very muted too, totallly opposite to earlier in the season. Loook's like Wenger has sucked the life and passion out of the man
