Plus Benayoun had a fine game yesterday, making crucial tackles to win possession and rarely giving away the ball stwpidly. I have never criticized a player for missing a sitter cos more opportunities will come if we can retain possession and attack as well as we are capable of

debosky: A lot of absolute rubbish talk about Ramsey here - typical.

Did Ramsey miss from three yards like Vermaelen did? Did Ramsey stop a goal like Vermaelen did? But no - Vermaelen is not useless for making those mistakes!

More blatant scapegoating when the favourites don't do well.

Did RVP score when he had a free header with Hart alone to beat? NO - he hit the post. Why did RVP stray offside in silly fashion when he could've held his run and gotten us a goal? No mention of that! But hey, they are exempt from critique.

What of the player that replaced Ramsey in the starting lineup? Benayoun? How come he couldn't score from 4 yards out? huh

No talk of all that, all the focus is on Ramsey!

Note - Ramsey's miss was awfully atrocious, no doubt - but only someone needing a brain transplant would think that was worse than TV5 or Benayoun's galling misses.

I thought Arsenal fans were immune from ridiculous claims and utter irrationality - apparently they are not.

Ramsey is simply suffering from trying too hard to impress - once he calms down a bit the quality will shine through.
This is Opata.

No one is picking on Ramsey for the miss but because we did win yet another game in which Wenger decided against starting him. All the names you mentioned have nothing to prove to us as they have risen up to the challenge more times than often. RvP, TV5 and Benayoun have all impressed far more than they disappointed but the same cant be said of Ramshit. It was glaring from kick-off of yesterday's game that we are far better attacking when Ramshit is not there than when he is. I am not writing him off but his form doesn't deserve a start especially when we are in the all-important run-in.

It was Arsenal from kick off. City was completely outplayed and I particular like the way the defence (especially my nucca KOS) handled Aguero.
Sagna was excellent too and showed why he is arguably the bes rightback in the league.
But why was Gervinho not even on the bench?

I honestly wasn't expecting Song to be back on the field when I saw that replay.
By the way, why was Yao Gervinho not on the bench? I hope Gerv isnt about to become Arsenal's latest flop

4llerbuntu: im very disappointed with the first half performance.
firstly im mad at wenger. not because his selection is bad but that its good. so he knows our first eleven and best selection does not include ramsey? that man is crazy.

that said theo walcott will never be a center forward, never. he is so stupid, he ends up central more often than not and promptly disappears behind lescott or kompany or is it hides >smiley mchewww

with the impetus and possession we dont have a goal and always look out of shape when the ball gets to balotelli im surprised we havent gifted them a goal!

we need to buck up our ideas attackwise and get balotelli sent off. i

btw I thot the refs instructions was to get man utd the title? how come balotelli is getting away with murder? smh. tongue
God bless you o, omo iya. The moment I saw the starting line-up I just cursed Wenger for intentionally gifting QPR that game.
And we played with that fluidity, energy and urgency that's beyond Ramsey's ability. I won't even go into the Ramsey miss - RvP's reaction says it all.

Balotelli should just be sold off before he destroy people's careers with his idiotic boot-raising tackles. He was brandishing studs for fun.

Koscielny got another red today. Seems he will miss two games or so sad. My best arsenal player cry

Djourou anybody?

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: The Red & White Army: 2025/2026 EPL Champions! by dipo1: 7:53pm On Apr 01, 2012
RvP will not score at any chance he gets meanwhile his shot at that one-to-one situation yesterday was good but the goalie parried away.
Is it not unusual that our main targetman had only one clear attempt at goal all game long when we are supposed to have an attacking midfield?
Vermalen had a stinker yesterday but I can't say same of RvP who simply didn't get enough of the ball. I reiterate that Wenger shouldn't have started Ramshit who has only played a negligible role in our run of wins. Ramshit is not an inspiring player and we should avoid starting him especially when Tottenham and Chelsea are breathing on our neck for ECL spots.
We are back on the square with the cocks on the league table while we face Shitty in our next game. angry

Paschal137: @Dipo+,
How far with ur application?
Its about exactly a month now since i applied and i'm contemplating whether to e-mail them for the status of my application. I personally have a concern about finances. My sponsor's acc reads about N3M meanwhile my tuition alone is about CAD13k leaving just about 6k for welfare and all other costs. My sponsor has a letter of introduction that reads a annual pay of about 5M though.
What do y'all think?

seriously, it seems too many students scored 225. I'm beginning to think some people are trying to cover-up a deficiency in the marking system.
First of, too many students passed 200 this year and then the common 225 score

We could have won yesterday's game if we had an attack. RvP only had a chance at goal and we never attacked well in

Lets ask ourselves why Wenger changed the starting line-up that has given him 7 straight wins. The sane thing to do is let that team continue but he had to bring in his son Ramshit to spoil everything. Vermalen had a poor game but I still like his attitude and how he nullified Zamora who tried to intimidate him with his size. We could have won the game if we continued with the squad we have been using of late

Correct. I can also say Arteta was the closest to a replacement for Fabregas that was readily available for Wenger's budget at the time

Papa Wenger isn't changing shitt. We are on the verge of finishing stronger than we did last season after selling two players the world thought we couldn't cope without. If anything, Wenger will feel vindicated. All the noise about signings is an effort to keep the most lethal striker in the world, RvP at Arsenal.
I think RvP will stay anyways
