chump!! I wasnt talking to you.So dnt get me started.

Pack your sht to the barca thread if you really aren't 'talking to me'. '

@A40
Its true that our chances are smaller with the injuries to our defence,but If we can score more goals than we concede in at least 7 of the remainin games,we could still win the league. But then RvP must be fit,nas fab and song all must rise up to the challenge. One thing's sure,next season will be worse than this one. So we win now,or stay Fuc.kd

@eyoniggar.
If the thread isn't closed,try smashing your pc on the ground. Then see if you'll see any thread.



As per the manure-arsenal game,I didn't even watch the game. I have learnt to stop watching arsenal games where denilson and diaby start. totally lost confidence in the duo,especially diaby. Now that the epl title is the only trophy in view,I hope arsene never plays those two. I'll rather have a ramsey even if I haven't seen him play in ages. The teams' confidence is on a terrible low now and it'll be a miracle to win 3 straight games. Manure will still drop points,but we too surely will. If vermalean,song schezny rvp nas n fab can shake injuries off ,we could still win the league. If not,we are back in circles. There won't be any trophy next season cos manure,chelski will wake from the sleep we have failed to take advantage of.
Anywishway sha, na jus ARSENAL for mi. If you dey vex,go fuc boiling ring

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.

If no be say u be mumu,u for know say barca and ac be two diff teams to play against

If arsenal got a goal WITHOUT any shot on target,its laudable. Compare it to many shots on target with no goal

@ tocdee.

Silly is relative and this 'no shot on target' thing is claptrap. Arsenal went to nou camp with a goal advantage and wasn't the team that needed to score. Even without a single shot on target we got a goal and hence were on course as to knockin barca out. We did it all well before fab made a mistake. Without a shot on target from arsenal,the game was 1-1 into the second half before the ref spoilt d show. In other words,before the ref gave RvP a card and effectively killed the game,we were OK defending and waitin for the chance of a counter. If the ref didn't give that cruel card,the game would still have been balanced and any of both teams could have won. Only a biased referee gives a second yellow for 'time wastin' in a crucial tie with any team at all not to talk of Barca.
Its near impossible to beat barca one man down at camp nou.

@ hannie.
I find it annoying that you include diaby's name in your list of arsenal players that should be shipped off. I remember vividly gettin insults from you simply cos I said diaby is useless and you thought he should have been brought in in a match we failed to win. To me,sayin puttin diaby in ur list is plagiarism.

@ all.With barca only scorin a goal in the first half,and bosquet scorin a equaliser,the ref knew that barca was on their way out of the CL. So he took it upon himself to push barca thru. I have never seen a striker collect a second yellow card for being offside,or 'wasting time'.
Everybody except fools know that that single ref decision is the reason barca went thru. 
We arsenal fans have nothin to be ashamed of. We have shown that at full strength and without any bias,we will knock barca out over two legs.
Arsenal all the way!!!

@ddippset

So you saw pique on the field yesterday. I am not surprised. I bet pique was ur MOTM for not even allowin a shot at valdes

^
Pep really said that? Wilshere sh*ts on bosquet.

Mhen,dis is becoming scary!!!! Dat was a valid goal not counted.

But how did we not score a goal in the last 5 mins?

Oooooh God. Charmakh plus Bendtner again?

Rambo, First blood

BinghiNya:

Arsenal 1 Gyan Asamoah 2. The beginning of the end for the gunners

Sunderland humiliated  chelsea 3-nil and chelsea's end began. I see why you think like u do,but this is arsenal,boy

Ancelotti's only hope right now is to win the UCL. its an herculean task I don't think he can achieve. As it is it would be an achievement for chelsea to finish 3rd,and they just might even loose that spot to citeh. Considering their position at the early stages of the season, this is nothin short of disgraceful. I hope they don't eventually go down liverpool lane anyways. And by now,they should appreciate that being a contender every season like arsenal have done isn't a mere feat. Chelsea is out of the contention, arsenal will always still be a contender and is bound to eventually win by virtue of being a contender

The donkey spends more time here than in the desert. What a odd donk!

Mi o shakomo,mi o densigi. Padi mi,shayo lawa yi o oh,

Arsenal don't cross the finish line first,but ALWAYS has good runs in every competition. Therez gotta be a reason wenger is recognised as the best coach in the last decade

Dayo,u still dey talk arsenal. It must feel torturous that no one cares that bayern got beat at home. Mhen,arsenal is truly great.

^^
Need I say that £1M or less is just a meagre part of profit the club will be making? We have a squad that can win,and thus bring money. So therez d potential for a better report at the end of the season

@amumex
Was so brain booting all these while? Everybody has moved on to something else by now. Ask even the manure or chelski fans

Lol, Djourou has been very good. Kos hasn't been bad either. Together they aren't a bad pair. Kos's mistakes are the reason why I may not say he is our best defender for now. So I guess Djourou takes the spot for our best defender for now.
Btw what's happening to vermalen now? Am I the only one expecting him to be training by now? Oga o.

1025:

the most shameless ppl i v seen in my whole life are arsenal fans.
how can someone gather here in the name of arsenal fans.
the team of the moment is brimingham. how can chelsea, liverpool, man u, man city, spurs all allowed arsenal to win something yet arsenal refuse.
this is a shame of a club under the leadership of the best coach in the world who has nothing to show for it in 6 yrs.

'how can someone gather' So SOMEONE can actually gather? All these anti-arsenal grammar school alumni sef

HNIC:

Diaby ke?
We are four points behind Manure because of Diaby's 60 seconds of pure madness!
His Shrink should sort him out before he returns to the field
We needed a winning goal
The 2 Birmingham defenders were slightly injured, Gaffer sends on two strikers.
I can't blame him for that.
Just wondering why AA23 was subbed, unless he was tired or injured, I thought he was having a great game.
Rozzi should have gone off
We were battering Birmingham until the devil entered KOs and Szezny
tough luck

Abeg no mind hannie jare, He just let his dissapointment cloud objective thinkin. Diaby plays well once in three games,and that's when he is fit o. Not to talk of when he hasn't played since forever. The presence of diaby alone is enough to make wenger look unserious and make the other players play badly.Suggestin diaby shoulda played is nearly as unbelievable as the Kos/chesny goof itself.

@HNIC
Thanks for that true commendation for Kos and Chelsny. Those two really have indeed had 5 star shows for us. It feels good to know that someone still recognises their prior effort.
What I fear now is if Fab won't go afterall. He,like RvP,deserves to win trophies every year,but too many other players look like saboteurs

hannie:

Think boy . .think!

in cup final there is nothing as suicidal as bringing in 2 dud strikers when your midfield lacks creativity and is supposedly anchored by Rosicky who has the band . . .bringing in a Diaby would have been better plus Diaby almost always scores when ever he returns from injury . . .the records are there . . .moreso he would have cooled down the tempo of the game just like he would have when FAB4 and the rest couldnt against Newcastle . . .no be rocket science!

Kosileyin is a f#cking Arrow I REPEAT! his schoolboy errors are ever phenomenal, see how Sagna and Clichy have shaped up their season, DJ20 is regarded as the best defender and when push comes to shove KOSILEYIN DUMMIES HIMSELF INTO OBLIVION . . FREAKING HELL!

Mr Brainbox, how easy it is to conclude that an other option should have been taken since a first option failed. I won't be surprised if u say we shoulda started Al in place of Chesny.
We had enough midfielders who like holding the ball longer than necessary i.e rosicky and Nasri. Bringin in Diaby woulda been DUMB, Plus does it make sense to have wishere,song and diaby in a match? Especially when we don't have a stop stiker? Bendtner started last season from the flanks and put in a good shift. Chamakh is rather experienced and was expected to bring in the urgency attitude required in a final,but somehow he too failed. Wenger brought them in as subs to disturb b'hams defense and create aerial theat,but without walcott,the right flank was ineffective. I don't blame arsene,he did what he thought would win us the game.
And Its a shame you guys cant get over Kos's error. Very unfair. He was puttin in a good shift b4 he goofed. We were all here singing his praises when we played against 'best football playing team in the world'. His mistake was disastrous,but not unforgiveable. No one here feels more hurt than me that we lost a final,but I can't bare all shots targeted at Kos. Why was rosicky playin like an hediot,why was song playin like it was our first game in the epl season? Why can't chamakh add more grit,directness and urgency? Bar song,these guys aren't good for arsenal. Kos will outgrow his mistakes,it still his first season at real top flight, For me,he is wonderful and except TV returns he should play every game.

^
First of,Kos isn't a dolt,its only rosicky who is. Kos made a mistake and I already forgive him cos he was simply overambitous in tryin to be a no-nonsense defender.
Plus why are you sayin we shoulda brought in Diaby? Is there another diaby from the one I know? Guy abeg,bringin on a diaby that hasn't played since forever would have been suicidal

The game was as tough as a final ought to be. I give credit to these players: schezny,the back four,nasri,arshavin,wilshere, and rvp.
Song and Rosicky were the culprits today. I dunno why Song chose this game to perform to bad in.
I give credit to AW,me thinks he did his job well but the lads let him down.
And congratulations to B'ham who thoroughly deserved their win. They played with the attitude required to win a final while our players played like there is a second leg,
I forgive Kos for his howler. He should just shielded that ball from any oncoming b'ham defender and allowed chesny to hold the ball.
Shit happened,but we gotta move on. It really hurts to loose a so-much-awaited final. But we must put this setback behind and continue to fight for the league. We should will the epl title this term.

Arsenal till I rot!!

Wahalai, I no fit chop my food again

I think we lack the 'final attitude'. The gunners aren't playin like it a final. So far only wilsher and RvP are showing the urgency we need to win dis match.
Maybe the yellow cards we have received is the reason we are defending so awfully

@revomind.
Nice one. Birminham also brought their A game. Its a final. Its not meant to be easy. But arsenal and b'ham are a class apart. I remain confindent that arsenal wins. Here we go again, set piece.

Dayo,simply cos rooney or torres aren't having a great season don't mean we don't know their class. Shut up and stop talkin like u don't have a functional brain
