Arsenal Thread

i know they are not but with over 11 kids all looking good, i doubt they will all turn out to be average players. i beleive that 5-6 will become world class players and to have that amount in your team is a good thing.

i sure wenger will be 2-3 good experience players in the future and that that to the alreadt 5-6 established players and there you have it, a team equaly has good has chelsea/united

ICEMAN was spot on:

WILLIAM GALLAS last night blasted his Arsenal team-mates as ‘stupid’ over their Champions League flop.“It was not an error of positioning that saw us knocked out — the mistake came earlier.

“We conceded the goal as the result of a completely stupid and needless foul.

“The ball was in the corner and all we needed to do was to wait. It was simply a mistake that was down to youthfulness. But we can’t be angry with anyone as we know we have a young team.

something tells me Helbs eating lunch alone for abit

“Situations like that make you learn and improve the most. We lacked finishing skills — plain and simple. We created far more chances than PSV yet failed to convert a single one.

Not something you see alot ...I like it that tells me he`s truly gutted or he likes pointing fingers(blaming others)

Also Henry`s out... rest of the season. :(

There's no point raising anything in this thread for fruitful discussion, as it's snipered down by red goggle cunts. We were shit as i said before.

Funny how everyone sits up and realises the wrongs when Arsenal players actually come out and spot the bloody obvious.

Thanks for the backup Beboq. At least you critize the team when they need a boot up the arse. Others and uncapable of doing that, or are too proud of a failing team.

We were crap and I have to agree Iceman, Henry is annoying me at the moment. He thinks he can just stroll around the pitch and everything will be ok. As captain, where is his encouragement of his team mates? Where is his willingness to drive the team on?

I have to say that I have enjoyed watching us more this season when he isn't playing. Shocking I know but thats how it is. By his own standards he has been poor overall and he must improve a lot before the seasons end. He looks very ordinary at the moment and whilst all players go through bad spells you have to show the right attitude to get through it. His body language is all wrong.

I said the above a couple of weeks ago and thank fuck he is now injured! Maybe we can string some results together and finish as high up as possible.
 
Can't really say with Henry. Has flashes of brilliance, but this season has spent too much time walking around and shaking his head at other players.

One thing for sure, we need to give the captaincy to someone else. Whether this was Wenger's carrot on a stick to keep him from moving is up for debate, but i would rather see Giberto or Kolo with the armband.

We need a proven CF, CB and GK.

I have been saying this for a long time now, Henry is not captain material. Personally I would give it to Kolo. At least when he is on the pitch he would lead by example.

I am not sure we really need a CB though, I know you are not Senderos's biggest fan but I think he will come good. We have Kolo, Billy, Phil and Johan (who I rate highly). We defo need a top, top CF. Mad Jens is leaving, I don't think there is any doubt about that, I would like to see us buy Shay Given.
 
True Clockender! you have been saying this about Henry . I realize he`s been playing injured all season long and taking shots not to feel the pain. I remember AW forcing him off to rest. How long has Henry been hiding his pain? Can Baptista score goals? Will Walcott start as SS?
 
Walcott may get a run in the team now although he needs an operation too! Looks like Baptista is joining permanently but Reyes is coming back! I really hope we can offload him and get some of the cash back we splashed on him.

Can't believe it's the same Big Phil from the end of last season. You don't keeep 9 clean sheets in the CL by luck. Something is not right. His confidence seems shot. You know we're a good ball keeping team, so why not hoof it clear. Most goals seem to be from us making mistakes at the rear when a simple hoof would at least give our team a rest-bite. I think i'm a bit harsh, so will change the signature. :) Agree with Johann though - the boy is quick, and strong. Maybe Wenger needs to bring the 'hoof from defence' into our play?

I'm praying for Eto'o, and Van Persie looked like our top player this season, until he got injured. Wenger won't pay silly money, so it'll probably be someone we've not heard of. :lol: I heard Baptista going to be made permanent, but i'd like to see his first touch improve. Reyes is going to be back, but i think we'll sell him to another Spanish team as he's been shite for Madrid, and their not interested neither.

I heard the keeper is going to be Yohann Pele, but i'd like to see Shay as well. Great keeper.
 
What birds have been singing to yous...this is all news to my ears.I fancy Reyes return he should realise he`s made for us .There`s a Spanish saying "It may look ready ,but doesn`t taste ready". Look at Hernan Crespo he may also return to Chelsea knowing his heart lies elsewhere and his performance is top notch.

AV tomorrow!

I think tomorrow's game should tell us what positions we should really be concerned about, after dropping out of the CL, lets see who bounces back and who makes the mistakes again... Although, I too pray for Eto'o... maybe Barca will take Reyes off us eh? :wishfulthinking:
 
Reyes is committed to staying away from Arsenal, so we will sell him, but who will buy him? He's been off form for us, though admittedly, he played a blinder against Real in last season's CL. Reyes for £11mil... i don't think so

I remember seeing him in Southgate Tesco, and he just looked well out of place, shopping with the whole family. I said Hola, que pasa amigo, and Jose was ¡Tengo morriña! (homesick).

I just thought his family was behind the home sick drama routine.I would love to live in R.D. but not enough money there. The older the harder to adapt I say
 
not Limpar, there was another bloke. like steve stevensen, john johnson something like that... or maybe I dreamt it? He was big with loads of hair

just remembered. He was Danish - John Jensen.
