Mr N2A keep deceiving yourself. Wait till summer when Wengay would buy some embryo from Congo Dr and France to fill in the boots of Cesc |
| Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only by No2Atheism(m): 5:25am On May 11, 2009 |
dayokanu: 1. Yes you are correct, Wenger would never buy those players, cus it would expose the fact that he has been wrong all along and thus responsible for Arsenal's probs. 2. The list i made is just to show where the team needs to strenghtened, if Arsenal has the hope of ever winning a trophy again under Wenger. 3. If Arsene fails to buy needed players, then he needs to be replaced by either "Louis Van Gaal" or "Diick Advocaat" or "Lippi" (the only 3 managers good enough). |
| Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only by dayokanu(m): 5:33am On May 11, 2009 |
N2A, Wenger na scopeman. he would never buy such world class players why? Because he would not have any excuse to remain trophyless but when he uses his embryos He can always use the excuse that He has a young team that would mature before Jesus comes back |
| Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only by No2Atheism(m): 5:40am On May 11, 2009 |
Yea you are right , I have also suspected that: youth policy might also be his own way of protecting himself in case of failure. |
| Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only by dayokanu(m): 6:00am On May 11, 2009 |
That is the scope Wenger dey use |

'You can be very positive or very negative' WENGER SAYS!! On the nature of the defeat… “It’s very difficult. You can be very positive or very negative. We lost the game 4-1 which is a major disappointment but I feel going forward we had a very interesting game and created plenty of chances. That is never a 4-1 game, we should have been 2-0 up before they had a shot on goal. On the first free-kick we made a mistake and they scored. Today we missed seven or eight clear-cut chances and on every single mistake we made we were punished.” On his side’s poor defending… “It means our chances to come third are definitely over. The rest I don’t feel will have any other influence than that. We conceded four at Liverpool, three against Man United and four today. We have to improve the way we defend. “You wouldn’t like to come out when you lose 4-1 and say ‘listen, we are going to buy four defenders’. I believe we have quality defenders and it’s more a case of balancing the team defensively than the quality of our defenders. If you look at the second goal we could have done much better in midfield than at the back.” On missing out on third place in the Premier League… “We had a small opportunity to come third but three months ago everybody said we would finished tenth so I would have signed at that point to finish fourth. I don’t feel we have to be too disappointed with that but what is very disappointing for us is in the games that mattered in the last three or four weeks we couldn’t win. That’s where we have to analyse. But today there were a lot of positives in the game and we have to take a little distance from the defeat because it’s not a 4-1 game today.” On dealing with two heavy home defeats in a week… “It is difficult but this is a job for strong people. When you decide to live in a competitive world you have to deal with that – we cannot complain. It is a bit more difficult when you are young but when you are young you want to be challenged. That is a good opportunity to show we have the mental strength that is needed at this level.” On the free-kick that led to the first goal… “We live in a League now where the divers are rewarded. It’s not right but it is like that. I don’t think the free-kick should have been given but it doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t win the header afterwards. I believe we must live in our job where the referee makes some decisions for you and some against. But defending consequently you should clear the ball on the cross.” On watching his side miss chances… “I still feel I was more worried in February when we were drawing 0-0 without creating a chance. Today I feel we created the chances and had an interesting game. When you see that in a team it’s always easier to correct what doesn’t work defensively; if you don’t create chances you are always more worried.” [Sunday, May 10, 2009] |

No2Atheism: Whether he buys them or not,it still doesn't change shiit about the fact that my beloved AW is largely to blame for our failure to win silverware in four seasons |
| Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only by Emperoh(m): 10:47am On May 11, 2009 |
switch47:kai!! this is a team that went unbeaten three seasons ago! Won trophies and now is contented to be placed fourth!!! How the times have changed Anyway, Wenger, pls keep the youth policy intact while those with Men policy wins the trophy! At least it will reduce our rivals to two!!   |
| Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only by mukina2: 11:08am On May 11, 2009 |
Didnt watch the match, saw highlights, the selection was awful, match was terrible and the loss was humiliating, maybe AW will learn from it but on second thoughts don't think he will  |
| Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only by No2Atheism(m): 11:38am On May 11, 2009 |
It would take a lot of serious humility for Arsene to accept his mistakes , and considering the stereotypes of french men, i would be impressed if he does accept his mistakes and actually try to correct them rather than paper them over, |
| Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only by Ibime(m): 11:42am On May 11, 2009 |
@ Debo, I hope you enjoyed Alan Hansen's expose on Samir Nasri's inability to track players on MOTD last night. Hansen pulled up 5 incidents to prove that Nasri is a confirmed weakling. Later you will tell me that Nasri is tenacious and can play central midfield. |
| Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only by Akolawole(m): 11:50am On May 11, 2009 |
@Ibi How your monday be? Do you know that? # We inflicted on Arsenal yesterday their biggest home loss for decades # 3 seasons ago, we did the same to liverpool at Anfield in the league and # Until few weeks ago, we also roasted United by 3 goals to 1 at Old tratford. I hope i am right though. |

them send you  tell them say you nor meet me |
| Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only by Sauron1: 4:25pm On May 11, 2009 |
mukina2: Hahahahahaha. . . . . . GAYnners were given football lessons within one week. Wenger should sell Diaby, Almunia, Nasri, Song, Vela, Van Persie and Bendtner. |
| Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only by switch47(m): 4:58pm On May 11, 2009 |
I Love the arsenal Fc Philosophy, Common Those that does ot Own the club,Have stakes at the club or have meetings with wenger or the Proper Team FANS are leaving in a fools paradise here trying to love the team more than the owners? some teams that spent more than the gunner did not even qualify for UEFA cup and Aston villa now know that only the strong makes the first four. ARSenal/ AW is a unique set up and the Project Arsenal will yield Result in no time!! NOT BUYING PLAYERS IS WHAT YOU BLAME WHEN YOU LOSE 1-4 AT HOME, and you celebrate when you beat villareal 3-0, man united 2-1,chelsea 2-1 What do you want united to blame for their 1-4 loss?? arsenal needs to buy players but that is not exactly what will bring the titles. ASK chelsea what happend to them last season and the one before (NO TITLES), or does chelsea even have any chance at all during scolari time (even with the players) same overpayed players Hiddink is using to form activity with loads of near misses now. |
| Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only by debosky(m): 6:53pm On May 11, 2009 |
Ibime: Hansen can pull rats out of his ass for all I care. Nasri CAN play in central midfield - it's like showing DD missing 5 chances yesterday and say he can't play as a striker. Is that how you rate players? Based on ONE game?  Confirmed weakling my foot - he was NOT tracking back - is that a sign of PHYSICAL strength or disinterest? You should go and re-school yourself on the use of adjectives since you're obviously clueless. Two things - Nasri is NOT a CM by definition but he CAN play there - he had a poor defensive game yesterday (who didn't in the Arsenal team ) but that doesn't mean he's not tenacious. Go look at the build up for the only goal we scored or the best chances we had - all went through Nasri.No2Atheism: Wenger will not admit more than he has already - he made plenty in the post- match interview: On the first free-kick we made a mistake and they scored. Today we missed seven or eight clear-cut chances and on every single mistake we made we were punished We conceded four at Liverpool, three against Man United and four today. We have to improve the way we defend. I don’t think the free-kick should have been given but it doesn’t mean that we shouldn’t win the header afterwards. I don’t feel we have to be too disappointed with that but what is very disappointing for us is in the games that mattered in the last three or four weeks we couldn’t win.That’s where we have to analyse. If you look at the second goal we could have done much better in midfield than at the back.” Today I feel we created the chances and had an interesting game. When you see that in a team it’s always[b] easier to correct what doesn’t work defensively[/b] If you're looking for additional admissions of failure after such an extensive list, you'll wait till Wenger admits seeing his player dive or commit a bad foul or go offside. To people yabbing Bendtner - he has 9 goals in the premiership which is the same as RVP and just one below Adebayor - most from sub appearances and a few starts. Given the performance of the 'top 2' strikers, he is more than filling his role as the 3rd or even 4th choice in the team. Regarding players that MUST be sold, just two come to mind - Diaby and Silvestre. Kolo had a mare, but he can play better than he has in the past few games - Silvestre (frenchie who can't jump) will make Vidic and Carra look bad. |

Emperoh:No, dearie, a club. The team that went unbeaten no longer exists. What's left is even dimmer than its shadow. |

ARSENAL ROCKS!! Arsenal jo!! Arsenal Jare!!! Arsenal jo!! Gba sibe!!! |

debosky: Even right now, i feel for Debosky. What a week this devoted fan has experienced. . . . . . Lost 1-3 to Man Utd on tuesday, lost 1-4 to Chelsea in the battle of the 3rd place(automatic Champions League spot). Don't worry. . . . . . .there's light at the end of this dank tunnel. |
| Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only by MrCrackles(m): 7:30pm On May 11, 2009 |
~Sauron~: Who doesnt experience ups and downs? There is definitely light at the end of the tunnel! |
| Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only by Sauron1: 7:39pm On May 11, 2009 |
MrCrackles: I don't. . . . . . .I cannot even remember what it feels like in a trophyless season. MrCrackles: Why are you assuming y'all are in a tunnel??. . . . . .I sincerely think y'all are in a bottle. For Bleep's sake. . . . . . .4 years without a TROPHY. Y'all should as well turn the empty trophy cabinet at the Emirates to an aquarium. Goldfish will def'ly look like a winner's medal from afar. |
| Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only by MrCrackles(m): 7:41pm On May 11, 2009 |
~Sauron~: You are an idiot Sauron! There is no empty trophy cabinet at the EMIRAATI And you dont even know what a goldfish looks like We are a force to reckon with regardless of the shitty week and we will be reminding ya'all soon about it! |
| Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only by Sauron1: 7:49pm On May 11, 2009 |
MrCrackles: Stop this brusque behaviour, u silly hilly billy!!!! MrCrackles: Reminding us soon about 4 years without a TROPHY and 5 years without a league title. Shame on WENGER. . . . .Shame on Arsenal FC.  |
| Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only by switch47(m): 7:59pm On May 11, 2009 |
MrCrackles:BRASH FOR PRESIDENT!! WENGER KNOWS! jare ! Arsenal undoubtedly one of the best in the World!! Current WCR Top 25 (CURRENT WORLD RANKING) 1. Manchester United 2. Barcelona 3. Chelsea 4.

Real Madrid For a club using so called children It deserves to be in Guiness book of Records jare. it will only take one or two buys from wenger and the Titles starts falling in !! BRASH NOTHING DO YOU JARE!! ARSENAL JOOOO!!! GBASIBE!! |
| Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only by Moonstone(f): 8:10pm On May 11, 2009 |
Akolawole:And yet still 3rd place with such pride. So far Manchester United has never finished anything less than 3rd in the past 16 years (this year - will be the 17th) and we've won the EPL 10 times out of those last 16 years - Now that's something to be proud of. Y'all need to stop getting happy by records that don't get you trophies. |

A little digression here,Newcastle has beaten Boro by 3 goals to 1.It was quite an emotional match With this result,they have leap frogged Hull(who are on a confirmed journey to the championship) and are ALMOST safe in the premiership,all they need is just 3 or more points from their remaining matches and they'll be sure of the GBP 13Million next year for featuring in the EPL |
