Fair play to the guy
I'm not a big gambler but 100-1 seems fairly shit odds to get on a 9 year old playing for manure in the future or am I the only one who thinks that ?

Btw to all the arshavin haters out there, can I just say that I would rather have arshavin playing on 1 leg than the fcuking gormless klingon that is currently in the first 11

IM only presuming but maybe when he was 9 he was already at utd at schoolboy level so bookies might have taken this into consideration if he had nothing to do with utd at that time the odds i presume would have been considerably higher

Re: LEAGUE CUP V COVENTRY CITY
At the time of posting I have seen nothing of this game. Giroud, scored one
MISSED a pen
Any striker worth his salt should rattle home a penalty
So how did he do
one step forward and two steps back......or what
Again, I saw nothing of the game

The highlight of this game was this post from BABA
I'd like to make a retraction and say I've been proven wrong over Giroud. Happy to see he's probing me wrong...

Re: LEAGUE CUP V COVENTRY CITY
As I pointed out twice, I saw nout, just hope the penalty hasn't shattered the lads confidence. Like you I have high hopes for Giroud.mcdowell42 wrote:green gooner wrote:At the time of posting I have seen nothing of this game. Giroud, scored oneMISSED a pen

Re: LEAGUE CUP V COVENTRY CITY
Just watched the goals on bbc ox scored a peach and have to say theos 2 goals were actually 2 quality finishes albeit against league 1 opposition
Re: LEAGUE CUP V COVENTRY CITY
Giroud's finish was quality and the penalty was actually well taken but the keeper guessed right and made a very good save.
Comical Wenger on Arshavin:
on Arshavin's central role…
Arshavin's best position looks to be behind the striker now because that's where his vision, the creative side of his game, can be very efficient. When he has to work on the flank it is sometimes working against him because he has to work too hard up and down. But when he's central he always had an influence on the game.
He realized it two years late.

Re: LEAGUE CUP V COVENTRY CITY
The Ox scored a lovely distance shot.
Theo's second goal was a good run and cut in from the left, with low curler round the keeper Thierry Henry style.
"1989" has often talked about how Theo was very good cutting in from the left for Southampton and England U21s and he was so too tonight.

Yes that is one of Feo's strengths - cutting in from the left. That's why it always baffled me why Wenger kept sticking him out on the right; if you aren't gonna play him where he wants to play (upfront), then at least play him on the left wing where he seems more comfortable.

Re: LEAGUE CUP V COVENTRY CITY
just watched the first half and thought coquelin was immense. if diaby mantains his erratic form i'd start the coq ahead of him
