@Debo, I doubt fabregas will play. We hav 'interlull' to have him heal properly. If we play him, Spain will call him up. And I agree re-arshavin for attack. I'm expecting your piece on the middle third. That is where we have to put in extra shift. |

E ma binu simi o, but I coudn't help but point this out, so you get a clearer picture of what Arsene has been fighting against. http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story?id=828829&sec=england&cc=5739 [Quote]It has been revealed that Manchester City lost an incredible £121 million in the last financial year and they spent more on wages than their entire income.[/quote] How can this be sustainable? How irresponsible is this? even if you win all the trophies in the world, how can you sustain this? How do you fight against something like this? How does this help the game? Na Abramovic and RM with their galacticos start all this nonsense in soccer o. If they are allowed to do this continually year on year, they will get it right someday and turn into the next chelsea, then we are back to square one. |

Andy Gray on Almunia: [Quote] Manuel Almunia gets hammered, but the so-called crisis with the Gunners' goalkeepers is a collective problem as much as an individual one on occasions. In fact, I don't go along with the view that they can't win the league with Almunia in goal. There was talk of Mark Schwarzer moving to the Emirates in the summer as a solution to the 'problem'. Is he really a better goalkeeper than the Spaniard? I would say categorically not. Almunia makes errors, of course he does, but he's a goalkeeper and that's what they tend to do. Petr Cech, Edwin van der Sar, Joe Hart and Pepe Reina have all made errors of their own, but in general they get far more protection than Arsenal's keepers. I have no concerns about Arsenal's footballing ability, and if Sunday's game was non-contact I'd back them to get a result all day long. But I just feel that power plays a huge part when these two meet, and there has to be a doubt that this side as a whole is better equipped than in previous years to cope with the Blues' physicality. [/quote] Finally, a pundit talks some sense, maybe Collymore's rant is having an effect on English TV commentary afterall, one can only hope. |

allboyz: I was referring to this, Arsene has confirmed he is out against Chelsea and barring a miracle of some sorts or some mind games which Arsene doesn't usually do, he is out against Chelsea. |

Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only by debosky(m): 2:31pm On Oct 01, 2010 |
duduspace: Patronizing comments from Andy Gray. . . his hair loss has affected his judgement as well. Just how many times will a GK like Reina make 3 catastrophic errors in a game like Almunia? ![]() This isn't about protection. . . .protection doesn't cause you to daftly rush out like Al did against WB, when two defenders were closing in on the guy. Protection doesn't prevent you virtually throwing the ball into your own net for the second goal. The fact is, our GKs are too error prone. . . .the number of catastrophic errors (often unforced and out of the blue) that they make is unacceptable. Anything else is simply avoidance of reality. Given played for a crap defence at Newcastle, but only a blind man would fail to see he was STILL an exceptional keeper at a poor club. Schwarzer might not be 'much' better than Almunia, but he has more experience in the EPL and has performed consistently for years. . . Almunia's clangers are always just round the corner. Why am I even posting about this? I've said more than enough about the GK's already. . . .we all know the facts except for some wishing to excuse the failings of the manager to improve the quality in this crucial position. |
Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only by debosky(m): 2:47pm On Oct 01, 2010 |
With Gibbs, Almunia and Cesc out, our options are limited. . . .but that means that we are likely to start with a midfield of Song, Diaby and Wilshere, with Nasri playing higher up, or Song, Nasri and Wilshere with Rozzi starting as part of a front three. We've got our work cut out for us now. . . .time for Nasri to step up to the plate and grab this game by the scruff of the neck, or will Wilshere announce himself on the biggest stage and run things? We are clearly under-strength for this game and will need EVERY PLAYER to concentrate for the entire 90 mins. This is going to be a battle, but we could be hurt badly by Chelsk considering the weaknesses in the side. |
Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only by yousouph(m): 3:06pm On Oct 01, 2010 |
The defence has conceded three penalties in the last two matches. Will Chamarkh win penalty on at the bridge? |

duduspace: I don't jump on anything. . . . .without boasting, I can say I've followed Arsenal long enough to be able to make up my own mind on whether an article is reasonable or not. Even a man from the Koma tribe in Nigeria who has never seen Arsenal play knows that Almunia is the worst goal keeper in the top 7 (at least, he may even be the worst in the top 10) as they finished last season and Andy Gray is here talking bollocks? ![]() Maybe he's suffering from hypermetropia from staring too much at his fancy analysis screen at Sky. ![]() |

debosky:I do agree with you. The pattern of our loses against Chelsea have been the same! We rarely get out-played but our bluntness in attack and calamitous defending always seems to hand the game to Chelsea on a silver platter. We just have to show some form of defensive discipline how we are going to get it i dunno but we just have to bring it for this match. Rozzy and Nasri have to come up grande especially Rozzy who i dare say has a lot to prove and is yet to deliver the goods consistently in an Arsenal shirt debosky:That is why i prefer Almunia and can live with him being in goal! I really don't buy into that Almunia is Arsenal's problem argument i think our defence and style of defending is a bigger problem! Our back-four is lacks discipline and would make a decent goalie look bad. Barca have shown us you don't need a fantastic goalie to win trophies By and large there is no result that can be more frustrating than the 5-1 rout Tottenham handed us on my birthday 2 years ago so no shakings chamotex:Bebeto! You don dey be abi |
