I think its Time to back Eboue

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

He has moved up a notch, but that still only puts him on notch one. I would like to see him ditch the childs play, and put some aggresion in his game.

The best thing Eboue ever did was break Terry's foot.
Wow, you're opinion of Flamini was pretty low then? Even after he played at left back with the distinction that Eboue could only dream of.

Talking off dreams, judging by this thread, there's going to be few relieving themselves at the the "form" of eboue. :roll: :banghead:

There was a point when ever he came on he would get caught on the ball or make a half ass chalenge.

I used to dred him comming on. He did well when he played in the CL run but he used to be dreadfull in the middle.

One pass master, theres only one passmaster,
Diving along, tripping over Song,
Being useless in a useless Wonderland.

I like it as is. Only line I'd change would be;

One pass master, theres only one passmaster,
Diving along, tripping over Song,
Being useless in Eboue Wonderland

Although I'd never sing it. :wink:

I will just never abuse an Arsenal player during a game. Once they pull on the jersey they are part of us. I'll moan and give out about the likes of Eboue, Adeboy-all-about-the-money and Senderos but I'll never boo them or jeer them. The team comes first. 8)

was looking on the Carling opta stats someone said Eboue couldnt dribble earlier in this thread so it made interesting reading when Eboue's had 12 dribbles??/ and he's dribble success rate is 83% compared to Walcotts 63% but Walcott has had 19 dribbles?

I'm in no way saying or implying Eboue is better than Walcott though

What a great goal and first half from Eboue yesterday.
I know it was offside but it was good to see him score.
