@ Chack: Cool stuff to you. However, winning Arsenal 4-0 gives you no silverware. And I like seeing manu beaten, no matter who does the beating. Delicious. Fresh.

Cassiel, I'll recognise your particular brand of humor anywhere. Interesting to see you now support Man U.

What can we say? United fought valiantly, United fought Gallantly, United fought beautifully.





And united lost.

The last team to beat Manure at the theatre of dreams nightmares was Arsenal. Lauren played. Sol Campbell too played. Not sure about Kanu though

Chacal. I agree. You guys had a rough run in that game. I personally wanted a draw, but I'll accept a win. But I'm an Arsenal fan, and anything that goes wrong for united makes me happy. Nothing personal, as you must know, just supporting my club


Doyin, na true, we stammered. Now it's their turn to stammer.

What a great game. Manchester United dominated the game from beginning to end. Naturally, they got the result they deserve. They'll win the treble now for sure.

What?

Oh.

Jam on our chins lads, jam on our chins. Finally the boys decide to play. And when they decide to play, they win. We haven't played this well for a long, long time.

Debo, if you were sitting there in the cold, wearing an oversize coat, and losing feeling in your more tender regions, you would not think that dive was funny. I think we booed louder from the fans area than the mancs did. They clapped for us after the dive.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only (Old) by Banderas(m): 5:58pm On Feb 17, 2008
Christiano Ronaldo. End of story.

We used to have a proper diver in times past who could compare (in diving). Alas he's now left. His name is Bobby Pires.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only (Old) by Banderas(m): 5:53pm On Feb 17, 2008
4play. With all due respect, it was a blatant and shameful dive. He realised just as he was going down that he wasn't going to pull it off, so he raised his hand to "pretend" that he wasn't really diving.

Ade's not a real diver, he couldn't pull that sort of thing off. If it were a skilled diver (Ronnie/Roonie), he may have made it look more convincing.

By the way, do you remember Ferguson complaining about our fans abusing him? You should have heard the unspeakable songs that Man U fans were singing yesterday.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only (Old) by Banderas(m): 5:46pm On Feb 17, 2008
Debo, help me tell them o. And where is this "Respect Man U" coming from? Even now, a good number of pundits are still tipping Man U for the title. EVERY TEAM IN EUROPE RESPECTS MANU. Stop begging for respect.

Those dives man, those dives. I wished I could leave the stadium when Adebayor Dived.


But then again, Rooney used to dive, Ronaldo, Scholes still kicks. Welcome to the real world.

Actually The high point of the game was when Benjani pointed at the manchester faithful and gave them his three gun salute. One was amused. The Man U fans weren't
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only (Old) by Banderas(m): 5:40pm On Feb 17, 2008
Hahaha. Okay, I see. Well, let the season roll on. At the end, when all competetions have been played, then we'll take stock again.

At least arsenal weren't beaten at home in our local Derby. tongue

Texas, come on man! I have said in EVERY post I made - MAN U WAS GOOD! When did I say they didn't play well? I will however say that the 4-0 margin is as much due to our horrible play as it is due to Man U's good game. Take from that whatever you like.


Arsenal looked ordinary because they were ordinary. Look at the game at the emirates and the desire that Arsenal showed. Look at how intense it was, how strongly they battled. Now compare it to yesterday's game, and tell me it was the same amount of desire you saw.

As an Arsenal fan, I would say this - if yesterday's team had played to their full potential, Man U would still have won. Fact. But they wouldn't have won by four goals.
SportsRe: Nani's Showboating: Great Or Unnecessary? by Banderas(m): 4:13pm On Feb 17, 2008
The showboating is looking for trouble. Watch how he gets tackled in his next few games. It's not professional, and not necessary. Showboaters have the highest number of injury in professional football.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only (Old) by Banderas(m): 4:08pm On Feb 17, 2008
Men, I won't quite call that game a true measure of Man U's ability. If they think they are that good, they'll be disappointed soon enough. Sunderland would have held man U to a 2 goal difference in that match. Man U was good, but they were not great. Arsenal didn't show. That game in my opinion isn't an indication of ManU's excellence, it's an indication of Arsenal's total capitulation on the day.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only (Old) by Banderas(m): 3:22pm On Feb 17, 2008
Let the truth prevail.

I took the journey to Manchester yesterday. Unlike my previous visits, this time I got a space from another member who pulled out - I don't have enough travelling member points to "win" a seat in such a high profile match. As a result, instead of my usual "luxury" trip in my friend's BMW (he didn't go because he doesn't have the away points either) I went on the coach. The geezer besude me drank himself to a stupor and puked all over my boots (Timberlands). That was just the beginning. We got to Traffy, and the coach was INSTANTLY surrounded by the usual idiots, yelling and singing obscene songs, and looking like the scum they are (I was particularly interested in one fella, black guy, he looked Nigerian. If he had tribal marks, I'd have known it was I-man, and would have lamped him instantly). The police came and restored order. Manchester was deathly cold, and windy as well. Within minutes, people were shivering in a mixture of anticipation and the rather unfriendly weather. This apparently was the high point of the entire venture.

We were totally out-played and out-gunned for 90 minutes (plus extra time). I didn't see a single player that played properly. Manchester United deserved to win, definitely; but 4-nil is a nightmare. I watched in absolute disbeleif as the guys on the feild showed a total lack of disrespect to me, and my season's ticket. Towards the end of the match, the Manchester United guys in the row next to us stopped making fun of us, and started offering to buy us drinks. We couldn't leave the stadium because we came with the fecking coach, and had to leave together. After the match, we the travelling fans dragged ourselves into a pub nearby that apparently was usually an Arsenal stonghold. It was full of mancs. They were hugging us and consoling us. Even the crooked bloke I'd seen earlier, turned out to be some jamaican guy. He offered to buy me a drink.

This, my friends was a horror show, a nightmare. ManU fans have every right to jubiliate, though I must say - Manchester United didn't play very well yesterday. Birmingham and Derby would have beaten us the way we played yesterday. We deserved to have conceded at least 8 goals. It was a total show of shame. On match of the day this morning, I saw Fabregas dispossessed by Carrick/fletcher (I always mix those two up), and not chase him down. Good heavens!

No true supporter of Arsenal should dare try and take a positive from this performance - there was NONE. Nothing positive, nothing good. We were awful yesterday.

Okay, mebbe there was one - after Nani did his showboating, the next time he got the ball, Flamini went after him. Why, oh why did the boy pass the ball quickly?
SportsRe: Super Eagles Squad At Ghana 2008: What To Expect? by Banderas(m): 11:02am On Jan 30, 2008
Ruudie, it was a risk for C-i as well. If they played for a draw, Mali could snatch a win and then lead the group, leaving CI to play Ghana. And NOBODY wants to play Ghana.
SportsRe: Super Eagles Squad At Ghana 2008: What To Expect? by Banderas(m): 7:13pm On Jan 29, 2008
At this moment, we have C-I leading mali by 2-0, and Naija being 1-0 up. If these scores remain, we'll go through, though God knows we don't deserve it.
