The other worrying thing, as others have mentioned, is just how bad Squillaci is. Just WHO recommended him? I'm kind of assuming it was Grimandi as he is the scout in France and although Squillaci was with a Spanish team I wonder if Grimster is responsible for all French player scouting? Anyway, the recommendation of buying him was clearly a very bad decision and if it was Grimster, then he may well be Wenger's no. 2 in a few months time. That's something to look forward to.....NOT.

Well done to leeds though. They gave us more of a game than Man city and still got the draw. Shitty should be embarrassed.

Louder you make me laugh. You really do. I thank you for that. :lol:

I'll tell you what your senseless optimism reminds me of... It reminds me of New Labour. Wenger is the shining Tony Blair, elected on a platform of 'things can only get better'. His initial success was startling and the country glowed in the reflective pride at our achievements. But then things began to wane. Questions were asked by the more pessimistic members of society, but these people were told that they were mad. Eventually, as disaster after disaster unfolded everyone but Blair's loyalist supporters could see what he was really about - a massive ego out to promote himself to the detriment of everyone.

Which brings me to you. You are the Blair supporter, 5 years after everyone else woke up and smelt the coffee. You're the left-wing sycophant who wants benefits for all, mass immigration, non-selective education and a promotion of the arts. It's not about results (you can make those up yourself by either de-meaning A-Levels and GCSEs or using an effective spin doctor... :oops: ). Everyone is 'equal' and everyone should be earning serious coin for not doing an awful lot. Nobody is a 'failure' because it would hurt their feelings, and we can't push people too hard, because it might hurt their feelings, or cause stress.....

What does the picture I paint above remind you of Louder?

Sometimes people need to know the truth about how good they are, and people need to be paid what they are worth. Not in the world of Wenger though. The man's a fucking philanthropist, not a football manager.

Keep following him blindly Louder. Someday you'll realise what a pratt you've really been.

I wasn't at Wigan end of last season, where obviously the frustration would have been palpable, what with Flappyhandski giving the game away. But today, wow, I've never seen a crowd on the back of so many players. Eboue, Denilson, Bendtner and Arshavin: I'm not sure if any of them even want to play for Arsenal.

And the question is would any of us really care ? Seriously most of these players should be nowhere near our 1st team anyway so who gives a fcuk if they want to leave ? Lets all help them pack I say 8)

Right now if I had a voodoo wenger doll I would be sticking pins in it all over the place :x The man has dragged down the standards required to play for this club to a level not seen for 25 years and the fact that this is deemed acceptable by any fan or shareholder absolutely defies belief and both saddens and embarrasess me tbh :cry: :oops:


I DON'T WANT THEM TO PLAY FOR ARSENAL! THEY ARE A FCUKING DISGRACE!

OUT WITH THE FCUKING LOT OF THEM

Spot on with every word Frank (especially the bits about Blair- the smarmy bastard!) but why do we bother??

If you were in a pub near the ground and someone started talking to you, offering up the nonsense that this bloke serves up - you'd drink your pint in record time, go to the bog and climb out of the window just to get away from him. Even if the bog was on the 14th floor!!

Or if you pulled him in a Soho bar and woke up next to him but he was still asleep leaning on your arm, you'd eat your own arm off rather than listen to him all over again.

Not sure what bars he goes to but I bet he can count Duncan Norvelle, Dale Winton and Louie Spence amongst his entourage . . . . . . .

Oh look - now I've done it too!!

What a frustrating game, we got lucky to escape with a replay, a replay we really don't need considering our busy schedule.

Wenger needs to understand you can't play two of the same fucking player (Bendtner and Chamakh) simultaneously, it just doesn't work. Not to mention Vela as a sub, another guy who is ineffective on the wing. Again his faith in Arshavin was left unrewarded, and Denilson proved how defensively useless he is - only get to encouraged by seeing Song taken off.

Just ridiculous player management today. Our "second team" is absolutely terrible and have no chemistry with each other. Just a ton of overpaid nobodies. Rosicky, Denilson, Bendtner... can we just offload these guys already?

On a lighter note, want to go to the replay but checked out trains not a chance of getting back after 10pm especially if the game goes to extra time......after today the chances of that are high.

Any chance the club will lay on a train there and back. They did it for Wigan so surely they can lay one on for this. :?

I thought that too RNT, Cesc knows what is required to win at the highest level and when he looked at the starting line-up today he could not see that it had that.

Baffled as to how Wenger thought Chamakh and Bendtner would combine to any great effect?

Denilson just has to go, I usually try to find the positives in a player but he scares me.

Maybe in a 442 in they could work to some effect, but nik out wide? Whats the sense in that? Denilson fucks me off so much, when song went off it showed how exposed our back line was with him on the pitch.
You dont need to be a talented footballer to perform this role, you just need to be disciplined and have desire. I dont think denilson has either

I'm not going to go into what I think of the lower classes who claim dole and every incapacity benefit they can, while they pay minimal rent on a three/four bedroom house they were given because they have more offspring than they can afford. The type of people that have two cars and won't walk their kids to school because they're idle, overweight and will continue to be so due to habitual laziness. They don't feed the kids proper food as it's easier to buy takeaways with my tax money. I voted conservative.

Just calmed down now. Wenger really needs a kick up the hole. How can he leave the worst two players on for 90 minutes? Denilson and Arshavin were appalling - worst I've ever seen either of them play ever. Denilson is not good enough and needs to go, Arshavin has the ability but seems obsessed with trying to do the dificult things instead of just keeping it simple and accurate. He is also fucking student-level lazy.

Comedy Eboue is a whole different case. Dirty fucking diving, cheating, whining fucking arsehole. PLEASE FUCK OFF AND STOP EMBARRASSING MY CLUB YOU FUCKING MORON. :evil:

And IF what Walcott is supposed to have said is true then he needs to be fucking punished by both the FA and the club. And he needs someone to take him aside and beat into him the fact that he doesn't have to try and get in the fucking papers and on the cover of HELLO every week. :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

hmmm... maybe I haven't calmed down... :x

Another thing that winds me up about Arshavin is when the sub board goes up, he practically sprints over to the touchline. Yesterday he did it at least twice, the second time Wenger had to shake his head to tell him it wasn't him coming off.

Doesn't he want to play that bad?

I really hoped that AA23 at Villa away would turn a corner, he showed his odvious real talent, put a lot of effort in and seemed to be enjoying his football....... but l was wrong, and worst of all opposing teams probably realise he is a lazy player who does not track back, Theo is so far ahead of him now it is scary, and even Mr Wenger must realise this? :barscarf: Oh well.
