Yeah I was joking, did you hear that Heinze is on collision course with Fergie cos he don't wanna play for you at Christmas as he is a devout Catholic and he would rather be praying and spending time with his family.

Yeah, I heard something - United should be his religion! ;) Question for you: Why is Bergkamp so scared of flying? I hate flying, but I would do it I was earning £40K a week and could sit in first class every time!!!!
 
Its to do with when he was playing for Holland at the 1994 World Cup in the states. He was on an internal flight that got caught up in a load of turbulence and it almost crashed. Its as simple as that. He has said he will never fly again. What I don't know is whether he got a boat back from the states when they were knocked out. Ha ha.
 
The FA have said Van Persie has no case to answer after reviewing the video of last nights "incident". Quite right too. My only surprise is that they reviewed it in the first place just because Fergie asked them to. Its a about time he concerned himself with his own players instead of bleating on about ours. RANT OVER. :)
 
I personally thought both Richardson and Van Persie overreacted simply because of the rivalry between the two teams.
 
GG are you OK in the head, mate? I find your obsession for that Peter Brock guy worrying! :lol:
 
Petit might be called in to cover over xmas fixutures?????

Right now hes a free agent and is working out in the Arsenal training camp.....


Would be an amazing return!!!
 
Not completely convinced with Almunia. He nearly did a Taibi! Also looked like Freddie was the only one up for it. There was a moment when he was screaming at his team mates to wake up. I also think Reyes needs a little rest as well as Cesc. What the hell is up with these dudes.. They seem to be in second gear! I hope rosenborg don't come to highbury with the idea to defend, cos i'm having that Ashley Cole 88th minute edge of the seat feeling when thinking about trying to open them up.
 
Seriously if we dont win tonite I wont be that upset, purely because we wont deserve to go through. Hopefully Saturday will have been enough to convince the team that we can actually beat teams other than Sp*rs, and remind them what a clean sheet is. Manuel looks set to stay in nets ahead of Jens, Justin Hoyte replaces Ralf, and Flamini for Vieria.

I think Hoyte could have a future in the 1st 11, he's got pace which is the key attribute for a modern day full back and while his delivery is not yet as sharp as Ralph's, he's a good option as understudy.

I met a girl on the weekend from Marseille, who said that Flamini was probably their most talented future prospect. She didnt seem to know that much bout football but she knew who he was, sounds like a versatile midfielder. I didnt know until recently that he played in last season's UEFA cup final.

You know the score, all part of the build up process :D

A tasty win, mind you they were awful. Makes me wonder how we only managed a draw at their place. Bout time that <---- scored a goal, and a good one too. BTW I think Freddie was rested in light of the Russian invasion on Sunday.
 
Fabregas was superb last night and it looks like we have got our passing and zest back just in time for Chelsea. Hoyte looked assured at the back and Flamini was everywhere. I feel a bit more confident now about Sunday, if we play like that we have a got a good chance.

I also expect Lehmann to come back in for Sunday, Almunia looks a good shot stopper but is in-experienced, so I would rather see Jens back in for the Chelsea game.

Freddie suffers from migraine and apparrently he had one an hour before kickoff, thats why he didn't play.

But to be fair mate, Rosenborg weren't exactly at the races. They give their gifts out before christmas. ;)
 
No they wers shite but for FFS you can only beat who is put in front of you. All the gooner haters out there talked up a crisis for Arsenal in Europe but the simple facts are is that we are unbeaten and we topped our group. Can't ask for more than that.
 
Congratulations! But I think that Panathinaikos should be also in the second round of Champions League, along with Arsenal. It's was a pity we didn't make it, because of that stupid draw against Resenborg in Norway ](*,) ](*,)

Migraine


Also on another note, notice the fishy scum's tactics. Send the second squad to Turkey, thinly 'guised as an attempt to not win the group. Come second. Miss Real/Barca etc...

As we say in North London, CONSPIRACY!!! lol!

Im just happy to be in the draw.
Well dun Liverpool coz now we got 4 English teams compared to just 3 Italian and 2 Spanish.

Werder Bremen
or
Real Madrid
or
Porto
or
Bayern Munich
or
Barcelona.
