Let's guess how many more minutes of competitive football he'll play for Arsenal this season, winner gets to tie SteveO up and beat him like a pinata for his continued optimism.

I'll start the bidding at 470 minutes.

Yep, that was about the time, then you spiralled from positivity to (apparent) negativity within a few months.. or finally woke up and smelt that coffee smell!!! :wink:

I reckon we were all alot more positive back in 07-08 because we hadn't yet encountered the true nature of the beast that is Wenger's single-minded stubborn failure. :(

As the Smiths once said "There is a light and it never goes out". The great man will rise from the ashes of our season once more and inspire us to the virtual trophy.

Can't win an away game in 2011 - who you gonna call? The Great Abou - boom, comes back and puts Blackpool to the sword

In trouble at home to Fulham, 0-1 down - who you gonna call? The Great Abou - boom, comes off the bench to inject the pace and skill into another dire effort and turns the game round

Need a stroke of genius for your first 3 points of the season - who you gonna call? The Great Abou - runs the show at Anfield and walks off with man of the match

You boys need to understand that once the light is switched off, days like these will be no more :(

For some reason SteveO reading your last post made me think of this....

When you can't win away
No matter how you play.
Who you gonna call?
The Great Abou!!

1-0 down at home
At the Wenger Dome.
Then who you gonna call?
The Great Abou!!

If you need 3 points
Or even cannabis joints,
who you gonna call?
The Great Abou!!

He can't help if he's sick.
Hope he comes back real quick.

I hear you Marky - but when he runs the show its because no-hopers like City or Liverpool "weren't interested" apparently. Our form's been fantastic since he's been out of the side hasn't it with Ramsey in particular looking outstanding.

He can never win the Great Abou - when he's out of the side with injury it's his fault, when he comes in and play well its because the opposition were crap

I'm still waiting for the list of other modern day Invincibles in our squad that have gone unbeaten since March 2011 (a run including three away games at Anfield and the Etihad)
