3. Many times I come and just read and get put off by 5 pages of abuse between two people or a long love letter to Adepaymemore by Dr Kituan[/quote]
Adepaymemore
Too too funny

dayokanu:
People are talking about World cup, Euro cup, CL finals you are talking about confed cup

WHy not challenge cup or beach soccer since its also organised by FIFA Gayyners never change Lil wonder they were climaxing when they won Amsterdam and Emirate cup

Very funny
So, Confed cup is no cup.
Yet the entire Brazillian team celebrated like they have won the World Cup!
What i wanted to bring out was what's the justification of excluding the Confed cup from the list.
Must a player score in the finals of a competition to justify anything?
Henry didnt score in the 06 CL finals, yet in the run up to the finals, he scored one of the finest goals you will ever see scored at the Bernabeu.
At the 2002 world cup, Rivaldo scored some stunning goals, enroute to the final, but Ronaldo scored twice in the finals.
does it rubbish rivaldo's contribution to the team?
In the 1994 ANC, Amuneke played in the finals and scored 2 goals and Rashidi Yekini didn't score!
Does it mean that rashidi yekini was not the chief goalscorer in the team, because he failed to score in the finals

Some logic we have here!

BinghiNya:
back to me when Henry scores in a final of a tournament. Don't mention the crappy 2001 confed cup.

Why shouldn't it be mentioned?
Was it not organised by FIFA?
Or was it Organised by 'Thierry Henry fans association'
Why should we exclude it?

BinghiNya:
A lot of folks chat gibberish on this site. Wish we could see eye to eye and thrash footie out. Lets organize a footie contest/quiz and end opats wey boys been dey yarn. Ruud is  a better striker than henry.


Henry was so useless in Juve where trezegol achieved. He had all the chances in this world to bury barcelona and man u in 2006 and 2009 respectively but goofed if not for eto'os opener.

And Ruud was so useless that he was made to sit on the bench while Louis Saha played!

BinghiNya:
Ruud left United and made an instant remark at madrid while it took the bojans,geovanni's to make henry wake up temporarily.

and a few years later,Ruud became so useless that Madrid wants to flog him for as low as  1.75 m pounds and at a time Spurs and B'burn were interested!

Who is  chatting gibberish

@DK,
he didnt get to play the final because he had an injury that he carried thru the prelims.
Trezeguet too had injury problems.
Are u saying Stefan Guivarch was better
You are puting it as if he was  some 3rd rate striker

Anyways, beef all u can
He's a world cup winner
They don't buy it in the market!

dayokanu:
Goals scored against South Africa were actually scored by Pierre Issa. If Henry's goals were that important why was he benched against Italy, Croatia and Brazil? I guessed Saudi and SA were more fitting matches for Henry. when the going got tough they booted him out and brought in tested players in WC 2006 he scored 2 goals against Togo imagine!!!!

Obviously, you are joking when you wrote the above.
You must be the only one that didnt know that the French had a striker crisis at the 1998 world cup.
Guivarch started in the Final against Brazil
Henry got injured was why he wasn't played in the knock out stages!

dayokanu:
Dont you guys love it when Assanal are winnin the "August league"? It makes all the roaches cretins and twats come out. Watch out by January they would be back to their holes.

Check the table again and see who is leading
No basis for your post at  all

So there you have it,he could be ack for Saturday's game,which is good news as there is no muscular strain.[/quote]Really good news
Heard rozzi trained and Theo will be in the squad also!

These Obertans should leave our thread na
Don't worry, you will lose to Burnley, Birmingham, Wolves
In fact, you will lose 10 matches and still win the league.
Now can you all disappear and get a life!
Scummie logic all the way.
It's been happening before and it will happen again!

I was talking about a few moments ago  
I was embarassed when we lost to Hull at Home
and talking about digging up posts
i went on and on that day, pouring invective on the entire team
I wonder where I described it as 'some temporary glitch'

don't you think you are channeling energy into a wrong project?
Why not let the train stop before you get in??

wait till January and let's talk.
Keep on losing to the likes of Burnley and co and let Fleet street keep deceiving you guys about how you have done it before
Even with the ref's help as usual, let's see what happens.

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=303740.msg4418566#msg4418566 date=1251203038]But your team lost to Hull at the Emirates. . . . .Were you embarrassed?
What a flaming Arrow!!![/quote]why just jump in and draw a conclusion?
Looks silly
I answered Presido that when it happened last season, i was embarassed.
Have we lost to Hull this season?
I will hate to lose to Burnley, so that i don't start ranting like you guys!
Lord, hear my prayer, amen!
Obertans!!!

presido1:
It halted your quest for a single trophy but our lost did not/will not halt our quest for EPL. Spot the diff. Last season we lost abt 4 games but by may we celebrated the 18th title. Some seasons back i could remember we lost to Sheff United and Everton @ the start of the season but went on to win the title with 10 points diff. So i won't lose sleep for the game against Burnley.

Time will tell, whether there won't be more losses like the Burnley type.That's why I said you guys brought out statistics as soon as u lost to Burnley.Don't say, u were not told.

presido1:
Yeah itz MILK cup which is far more better than EMIRATE cup you guys celebrates every other yr. Mark it, the day Arsenal will win the MILK cup they will go on open roof tour of london and demand OBE from Elizabeth cuz the trophy drought has gone for a long time.

I wonder who you saw celebrating the Emirates cup year after year and why y'all behave like Arsenal has never won anything before.If we never win the Milk cup for a 100 years, I won't be bothered.Wonder how many people were disappointed when we crashed out of the Milk cup, last year.

presido1:
Why did u skip ma question? Dude don't be cocky i need your sincere answer. Answer Pls.

Look at my earlier posts and see if there is no answer there.
I am highlighting the difference in the competitions being played.
the 3 points u lost last wednesday will come back to haunt you in the long run. . . MARK MY WORDS
But our loss to Burnley by a 2nd string team doesn't matter.The MILK cup isn't taken seriously by us, because we use
It to blood our youngsters
I will be embarassed if my team loses to Burnley in the league, not in some MILK cup
**I sincerely hope I dont have to repeat myself***

@ Gooners,
Heard Rozzi trained yesterday and that Theo too will be named in the squad to face Celtic
I wonder how long Rozzi would be around before the next. . . . . . . . . . .
I declare that he is healed in Jesus name, amen, alleluia

presido1:
You went on the media to tell us how Randall forget to take his nappies to the training ground prior to the match.
How "wheelchair" forget his sweet/feeding bottle @ the convenient store near emirate b4 Burnley fed them McDonald and how useless milk cup will be in your trophyless/dusty cabinet.

Trying to be funny

This was culled from the net.

10 things we learned from watching football this weekend

1) Contrary to perceived wisdom, Dider Drogba and Nicolas Anelka CAN play together. Next week: the Pope IS Catholic!

2) Carlton Cole was as stunned by his wonder goal as everyone else at Upton Park. So much so, in fact, he momentarily thought he was dreaming and playing in the all-white of England. How else to explain that pass to Jermain Defoe for Spurs' equaliser?

3) Burnley are this year's Hull. So expect boss Owen Coyle to be delivering his half-time team-talks from the burger van at Turf Moor by Christmas.

4) William Gallas is attempting to score off every part of his body this season. Celtic should pay extra attention to marking his nipples in the return leg of their Champions League qualifier next week.

5) Pity poor Roberto Martinez' wife. The new Wigan boss' wedding celebrations couldn't have been much fun - his honeymoon period only lasted three days.

6) If Nani spent half as much time practicing his shooting as much as his goal celebration then we might see the latter a little more often.

7) We always knew Louis Saha was injury prone, but the colour of his Barnet yesterday suggest he's the first footballer ever to go rusty. (Or is that just his penalty technique, ?)

David Moyes was right to hold out for £24million for Joleon Lescott. If his Everton team do end up relegated because of the upheaval caused by the transfer saga, at least they won't notice the drop in television revenue

9) "You can only beat what's in front of you". Actually, we knew that already, but the chances of Alan Shearer saying ANYTHING on Match Of The Day that you haven't heard before[b] are receding faster than his hairline[/b].

10) Wor' Alan's alma mater Newcastle aren't nearly as much fun now they're actually winning games, and stuff.

presido1:
But they lost to Hull and Stoke of last season. Whatz the diff btw Hull/Stoke of last season to Burnley of this season.

and who said i wasnt embarassed last season
We didnt go on a media circus saying, em , em, em , we always start slowly, we will bounce back, carrick lost a penalty, bla,bla,bla

presido1:
AW rotated his squad with the players he had so ARSENAL FC lost to Burnley and not Randall and co. stop giving flimsy/already made excuse.

Rotate ko, Mutate ni
I have told you already, we use the competition to blood our players! who cares about the Milk cup?
Ok, lemme help u, Manure's loss to Burnley was because Fergie was rotating his players,he rested Valencia for Park,Gibson for Giggs etc

presido1:
Is Ando on his way out of OT?
http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/news/Manchester-United-bust-up-will-see-Anderson-quit-Old-Trafford-article129305.html

I am not surprised at all
dude is already missing CR7.
The orgies the trio (Nani, Ando and CR7) host in Manchester is geting dull.

http://www.mirror.co.uk/sunday-mirror/2007/09/02/our-orgy-with-man-united-aces-98487-19722284/


He will move to Athletico since Real won't dare look his way.
and then Nani too may follow during the winter Period
****Hiss****

presido1:
Last time i checked they(Burnley) were among the clubs that made you trophyless last season. We lost to them like you guys last season but the only diff is that they can't make us go trophyless just like they did to you guys last season. Remember McDonald is not good for KIDS caption of sun newspaper.

When you field the likes of Randall, Hoyte,Wilshere and co, you will know that the Milk Cup is just a competition where we blood the youngsters.RVP,Arshavin, Fabregas and Gallas won't lose to Burnley even if the match was played at Onikan waterfront.If they did,I would be thoroughly embarassed

presido1:
How we did it will always remain a mystery to you guys. Don't try to copy United you will get burnt along the line.
Perfect your own way just like United did be warned.

Yeah, we are perfecting our own way
and certainly won't replicate what you did last week.
Naaah
We won't be BURNT to ashes by Burnley!

slimshay:
seriously why do guys keep saying this stuff, its just the first game, its still early in the season, the games against the smaller teams matter more than against fellow big 'fours' dont matter, last time i checked three points in early august remains three points early may. yes premiership is a marathon, but you want to imagine what would have happened two season ago if we had taken extra 3 points off each of the big four at any point in the season?
i'll give the Arsdhavin advice: The focus is always on the next game.
Its the red and white army!!!!

Of course, every match is important.
What I am saying is that if any side should lose on saturday, it doesnt mean they are out of the title race.Isn't that true?
I am stressing on the fact that, it doesn't make sense beating Manure home and away and then lose to Burnley, Stoke and Villa
Of course Slimshay, I would like us to beat every team and by end of March we are crowned champions with 6 games to spare.
But that is a tall order.Isn't it?
Look at Manure last season, they lost to Arsenal and were beaten blackish blue and bluish back twice by Liverpool, yet won the league with a game to spare._{They only picked maximum three points, once against Chelski}
How did they do it?
they beat all the 'small' teams, both home and away, not drawing with Boro, Fulham and Sunderland or losing to Hull or Stoke.
That's what I am saying, give every of those 'small' teams, the Everton treatment. . , .
Beat them home and away
So that when you play the other big 3, its just about the bragging rights, not necessarily the points!
What do you think?

BinghiNya:
Wetin u for talk. So referees aren't human, moreso u were playing at the emirates. How many sending offs have u suffered in the past at the emirates.
Wait till someone gets murdered. Gallas tripped Utaka as he outran him. Your punishment is on saturday.

See this man still insisting that Gallas tripped Utaka when the whole footie fraternity is showering praises both on the ref and the linesmen.
Do you know more than them?
Talking about red cards,where were u when Adebayor was sent off at the Emirates against Liverpool last season(rather unjustly)?
how many manure players are sent off at OT?

debosky:
but the important game is not slipping up against Celtic. Whether we win, lose or draw against Utd, it will not tell much of where our fate will lie this season. Beating the lower echelon clubs is and must remain our primary focus - once we do that, I am confident we have sufficient quality to overturn the 'big boys' when the occasion calls for it.

Would love to repeat the feat of the 06/07 season by beating the scummies at Old Toilet, but the most important game this week is wrapping up qualification for the CL.The result on saturday may have no bearing at all on the EPL race.
I mean, of what use is it if we beat the Scummies and get burnt by Burnley
I would like us to give the Everton treatment to all the non-big 4 sides this season.
That's how we will challenge for the trophy.
We've always done well against the other big 3, but cup up useless draws against the others when we need to be taking the 3 points at stake.
Come on Gunners
It's time for the RED and WHITE army to SHINE.

So many away victories happening this season

yep, an extra attacker in for a midfielder
23 minutes to go

presido1:
its not getting funny anymore FACT

Hope there are no Scousers around you
Or  else. . . . . . , .  ,
Take a look at Torres's face.
I won't want that to happen to you!

2-0
Curtis Davies header
Can the Scousers turn this around?

Did u see those skills from Lucas

Is Johnson a right back or a  right sided midfielder?
dude has improved a great deal

This Lucas na liability
own goal villain

did anyone see that
If I were a scouser
i would have had a heart attack!

So much blasphemy on this thread
CR7 better than Henry
Keano better than Vieira
Vieira was in the team of the season for every season he played in the Premiership
He was the king of the midfield
Off to watch the scousers play Villa
