Since Arsenal are not an attacking team, can you name an attacking team in Europe besides Barca?

debosky:
A minor drop in the main league standings and keeping my position in H-2-H. . . .safe to say I dodged a bullet this GW.

To top it all, I am still above those useless Borokiri Boyz.

medjai:
I think Schalke are the first BL team since '02, apart from Bayern to reach the CL last 8.

debosky:
Those 'six seasons' cannot be blithely lumped together - different factors were responsible for the performances in those. It is a lazy and dumbed down version of events that I would expect astute observers to be able to break down. The analysis is the equivalent of comparing someone failing SSCE at 11 and someone who failed at 17.

More lack of understanding - I have simply said that the board cannot be expected to issue a query outside of the set out expectations for the manager.

Setting those expectations at the right levels is another issue entirely, and cannot be addressed mid season, especially not when the club is still in with a chance of winning two trophies.

Did I deny Birmingham beat us to the CC or are you sniffing your crayons again?

If people were ‘perfectly happy with it’ there would not be the level of analysis and commentary experienced on this thread. Your error is wrongly assuming that support of the manager equals happiness with the success level. It seems anything beyond 1/0 is beyond your comprehension.

Arsenal FC as gone through much worse runs in its history - it is not your place to tell Arsenal supporters what they should/should not be content with.

Right now Fergie has won nothing this season, just like Arsenal - for a simple 1/0 processor like the one you have, that should be comprehensible.

Wenger is the second most successful manager in the domestic league after Fergie - if Wenger has no reputation then no other manager in the league has a reputation.

duduspace:
What business of yours is it? turn on Wenger becos we lost 4- 3 to a team rated as the best on the planet with a dodgy ref call. Are you on drugs?
Why hasn't Mourinho been sacked after losing 5-0 to them with a team of proven stars with over 250m investment in players?

I pasted a picture of Abidal strangling RVP
Comments please

How long before you guys turn on Wenger?

soon it'll be a decade. . .

The young squad and new stadium excuses have imo become white noise. . .

You guys are nearly always "almost" there . . .

After being almost there several seasons and lacking the ginger to make that final push, isn't it fukn obvious your squad just doesn't have the GINJAH!!!

I know. . . debosky and co will come and make some well reasoned and articulated arguments about how everything is great and given the circumstances, Arsenal is just where they need to be. . . .  problem is that logic and argumentation expired like 2 seasons ago. Now it's just, as they say in naija "ALL TALK NO ACTION" , or "Story storeeee". or as they say in my village  " alooo?  alooooo"  

Wenger is a  team manager first, this one that he is using financial state of the club to boost his managerial credentials is nonsensical. Win trophies then come and make mouth.

See them calculating lost revenue from CL exit and how to make up for it from FA and PL and bla bla bla. . . . Analyse how u will get wenger reprimanded by the board, at least. The guy is selling y'all a dream, and delivering a fukn nightmare. season after season same ol story. . .

U think Man Utd is goin 2 surrender the PL to y'all. U think SAF will let that kinda nonsense happen under his watch? U must be high on freebase. SAF don't play games, if he did he'd have players like Denilson, Diaby, Rosicky and Bendtner to rely on when his best players are injured.

It's another trophyless season for y'all if u don't manage to win the knockout competition u still have left. Forget the PL

The end.

Guys,can we just quit talking about that match? Pls, Its giving me stomach upsets to keep readin about the same topic on a thread I so love.

HNIC:
I will tow your line.
Some chaps here have the ability to read a player's body language in a nanosecond
and the R.R here did not see any Arsenal player being kicked.
Quoting stats like it was a boxing competition!
We would never know how the match would have ended, if RVP stayed on the pitch.
The most useless refereeing decision ever seen was a game changing moment!

Anyways herad Fab4's hammy has flared up again and TV5 may just be out till next season

4llerbuntu:
his body language? u mean u saw all that in a 2 sec time frame? wow!

there is no use discussing with y'all, enjoy your moment in the sun.

at the time van persie was sent off, who was going out of the CL?

in the first leg @ emirates, was the match any different from this one in the first half as per possession, stats etc

if the thought did not honestly cross your mind when the equaliser went in, that arsenal could win the tie, raise your hand up.

its very convinient to cite stats now, when usually arsenal gets ALL the stats, and the bloody twunts get a dying minute goal. nobody talks about how if it was a boxing contest at the 80th minute then.

that i could and probably would, given antecedents, won is not in doubt had the match stayed at 11 aside, and the dumbass ref tried to be even in his calls.

anyway, its all in the past now. weekend looms, onto the next one

chocobunny:
Age Range 20-24, thats all you are going to get. Lol. These are very particular questions,

freezy:
DK, no musicians invited? Let's celebrate small na. At least an English team went through. Even na Karaoke if musicians no gree come.

But his crusade to educate English football's 'ignorant' majority about the value of wholesome football has been consistently undermined by his failure to claim trophies. For the past few years, Arsenal fans and football onlookers alike have had to sit and listen to the same stale rhetoric from Wenger. How his players are finally ready to step up to the plate; how they have matured and learned from their disappointments, and are both physically and mentally ready to move onto the next level. The trouble is that Wenger's faith in his players appears totally misguided.

HNIC:
@Dayo
You obviously didn't watch the match.

All your silly questions must have been based on u reading some silly Barca blogs.

Why should RVP have been sent off earlier?

Koscielny also?

Messi penalty?

I think the next question should be. . .Why didn't I (DK)just be ref at the match?

Alves kicked Nasri all night, ref turned the other way.

Wilshere kicked all nite, he turned the other way.

Messi did same thing RVP did, trying to score from an offside position(he even handled the ball)
No warning talkless of cards.

No Barca player was warned talkless of a booking

Now negroes are bringing stats all ver the place like footie is some BOXING match.
FFS, footie is decided by goals, if stats had been used in the past in footie matches, we would have won titles in the past few seasons.

Some negroes asking what was Robin's contribution before being sent off?
Damn! do you guys know anything about footie?

What was RVP's contribution before scoring the equalizer against Barca in the 1st leg?

Rubbish!
I am done with this match.

Like Glenn Hoddle said 'Referees should use some common sense'!

Someone even compared this sending off to Piquionne's sending off!
NL no go kill me

BinghiNya:
@dayokanu,

How market dey go. Wetin we go dance today. Abeg play me til shiloh by buju banton.

You must be the biggest foool on earth. . . Read what i wrote again then explain why you are asking me these idiotic questions.

So Arsenal were defensive at the Emirates last month?

So if Arsenal have played conservatively a few times over the last 5 years, you overlook the 1 million other games they've played in that same period?

Since Arsenal are not an attacking team, can you name an attacking team in Europe besides Barca?

Your school fees shoulda been put between a stripper's bum-cheeks. . .
