Who brags about the CWC?

I can't blame JM for bragging about community Shield
[quote author=dayokanu link=topic=294608.msg4414044#msg4414044 date=1251132649]Did Henry win all these in the EPL? Typical Gayyner who turns logic upside down

Who cares what he achieved in France sitting in the shadows of Zidane.

When Zidane left and Henry had to lead we saw how well he did in Korea Japan and WC qualifiers.

Hmmn
So when Henry won the Euro Cup and Confed cup, he was playing for Bayern abi
and when he played the 2nd WC finals, he was in Koln
Your friend sauron talks about how at age 18, Rooney was ruling the world with England and making the team of the tournament
So why not Henry
Is it because CR7 hasnt achieved anything on the intl stage?

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=294608.msg4413993#msg4413993 date=1251132304]This HNIC is notoriously daft. . . . . .Are you aware the CWC is a FIFA-organised competition?
Are you aware the matches were part of the 66 competitive games United played last season?
Wazza went to a tournament, scored 3 good goals against Continental champions and you are here bleating nonsense.

This is not Emirates cup or some obscured Amsterdam tournament. . . . . For RVP to play in this competition, he must win the UCL first.
Now think about it. . . . . The competition's pre-requisite is so tough Arsenal WILL NEVER  play in there.
Think about the number of world class players that have played in this competition. . . .All WPOTYs have graced the competition.

Hahahaha. . . . .and yet he has won what most players in the Arsenal squad hasn't won.
Matter of fact, the most decorated player in the Arsenal team was bought from Man Utd.
It sums y'all up. . . . .Buncha useless outfit.

Not when it comes to a winger outscoring all the strikers in Europe.
Winning his league, winning his domestic golden boot, winning in Europe, winning the golden boot in Europe.
U have to be daft to ignore Ronaldo's contribution in 2007/8. . . . .No winger will ever match 42 goals in your lifetime.

U don't rate awards. . . . . .Do u rate 42 goals scored by a winger?
Do u rate his 8 UCL goals? Do u rate is 31 EPL goals.?? A number Thierry Henry didn't match in his 7 seasons at Arsenal?
HNIC. . . . .Head Ninny In Charge.

After 7 seasons, i woulda been surprised he didn't score against all the EPL teams.
That is hardly an achievement. . . . .Ronaldo scored against all EPL teams between May 2007 and May 2008.
12 months!!!![/quote]we will continue going about in circles.
*Shrek scored less than RVP*
*Berbatov is f**king useless*
*TH14 was far better than Ronaldo on and off the field of play*

dayokanu:
Henry won 2 EPL. 0 CL, 0 Ballon D'Or. 0 World footballer of the year.

Henry's incompetence made some unfortunate fans believe FIFA was biased against the EPL. But when a player gets to the final and messes up like Henry does regularly.

Henry is a star playing against Southampton and co
But check games that matter like
UEFA Cup final vs Galatasaray 2000
Euro 2000 finals when he turned out to be an additional defender for Italy till Trezeguet came in.
FA cup final vs Liverpool 2001
CL finals vs Barca 2006

Tell us something

France's all time top scorer!
Arsenal's all time top scorer!
Has won the world cup, euro cup, CL, Confed cup, bla,bla, bla
Will RONALDO ever win the World Cup, never mind the Euro Cup?
Let's wait and see!

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=294608.msg4413845#msg4413845 date=1251131151]Rooney scored 20 goals last season. . . . . .Stop displaying your ignorance on a forum
Wazza scored 12 goals in the league, 1 in the FA cup, 4 in the CL and 3 in the CWC in Japan(winning a FAT CAR KEYS).
You are suffering from amnesia.[/quote]Dont make me die of laughter here

I am still shocked
Why would you be counting the goals Rooney scored against teams, that an Ajegunle 11 would beat
So if he had scored 12 goals in the CWC, his goal tally would have been 29 !!!!
Come on.
thats the funniest stuff I have ever read
Maybe it's only on Manure's site, that his goal tally at a meaningless competition was added
If RVP had been there, he might have scored 6 goals blindfolded!
You might as well add the goals he scored in training also
[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=294608.msg4413845#msg4413845 date=1251131151]His debut season? Show us Van Persie's stats in his debut season at Arsenal.

He scored 9 league goals and copped the highest assists for a striker in the league from OPEN PLAY.
His goals got him 2 titles. . . . .Pray tell. . . . .what did Bendtner/RVP win last season with their gazillion goals? [/quote]write what you like.
Even tell us that he has stopped smoking.
Berbatov is a waste of space!!!

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=294608.msg4413845#msg4413845 date=1251131151]And he played 2nd fiddle to Shevchenko and Ronaldinho in his prime when the awards come calling.
His best finish was 2nd. . . . . .Ronaldo won all the awards any footballer can grab in one single season.
You are daft comparing the 2 players. Ronaldo is 5 times better than Henry.[/quote]We have both agreed here before that awards are highly subjective
No matter what Henry does next year, he will still be in top 50
ditto Ronaldo, Messi etc
I dont rate awards.
Highly subjective
BUT TITI is still the best to grace the EPL

dayokanu:
This was meant to be a joke right?

CR7 3 EPL tiltles. 1 CL title. World footballer of the year, Ballon D'or

Can you write what Henry achieved in the EPL?

Nothing.
He didn't win anything. . . .
He just came and disappeared like Forlan did
Google it and come back to us

Berba has scored 15 league goals in the PREM. . . . .something RVP is yet to achieve in his entire career. [/quote]We are talking about his goals with Manure, my friend
8 league goals last season for a 30 million pounds player
I will rather have Bendtner in my team, who actually scored more!!!

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=294608.msg4413681#msg4413681 date=1251129894]CR7 is better than any player that has ever played for Arsenal.
No need bringing his case here.[/quote]We have talked about this before.
TH14 is still and will remain the best player to have ever played in the EPL
He was an exemplary character both off and on the pitch!

How can a striker of RVP's quality yet to score 12 league goals in his entire career?
He is the number one taker of penalties/freekicks for Arsenal and yet he cannot score 12 league goals? [/quote]RVP only became the number one penalty taker last seaon.
Prior to then, used to be Henry, then Gilberto and he shared with Ade.
Meanwhile, for a player injured most of the time.
I doubt if anyone has a better goals ratio than him, maybe CR7.

tkb417:
Pool and Chelsea people can still talk
who is your best striker?
RVP?
dude is a dud when it comes to goal scoring

Yet, last season
he outscored
*Shrek*-Your best player in the world
*Berbash*t-30 million pounds waste pipe
and
*Apache*-Your best footballer ever from s-america, better then maradona(until he left for citeh )
Only CR7 outscored RVP.
Never mind
For the purpose of this arguement
Goals dont matter!
****HISS*****

@Omo Ibo,BD et al
It's pointlessa rguing with the mancs
They just bring out stats and argue to suit their purpose.
We were once told here that Berbatov was rubbish(b4 Fergie forked 30m to bring him)
It was a debate btw Klass and Berba
Apache was the best thing since God created the earth.
Manucho. 'the african Pele' was better than all Arsenal strikers
Nani will be better than Ronaldo.
Now Shrek is better than Torres+Drogba.
When it's Shrek involved, dont look at the goals scored. look at the assists.
When it's Ronaldo, he scored 42 goals in a season as a midfielder
No one will ever do it till JESUS comes back.
Forget it men.It's a waste of time arguing

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=294608.msg4412688#msg4412688 date=1251123109]He copped a place in the team of the tournament despite getting crocked in the Q/finals.
It says a lot about a player at 18.

So what has RVP won for club or country?
Rooney has won the biggest prize in club football at the age of 23. . . . .He has been instrumental to United's EPL victories.
What has RVP done single-handedly for Arsenal apart from Emirates cup and the Amsterdam tournament(which Rooney has won too).[/quote]What has rooney done single-handedly for Manure?
Nothing!
For the records,RVP has an FA cup medal!
Both have won NOTHING for their country
Just my opinion though, RVP stands a better chance at the int'l level!

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=294608.msg4412620#msg4412620 date=1251122644]At 18, he was starring in Euro 2004 and outperformed tested heads like Henry, Trezeguet, Ibrahimovic, Makaay, Larsson and Ruud.

NOTHING!
and he may never win anything in international football till his playing days are over!
Even Stelios has a European cup medal!

Vidic is left facing trial by television over Rodallega slap

Manchester United have suffered another blow to their defensive plans as the FA decide whether to charge Nemanja Vidic with violent conduct while Jonny Evans continues to struggle with an ankle injury.
Vidic is facing trial by TV after appearing to slap Wigan centre forward Hugo Rodallega on Saturday.
Tempers flared when the striker clattered into United keeper Ben Foster in an attempt to win the ball.

Last night the FA confirmed that they will look at the incident and Vidic could face a three-match ban.
Meanwhile, it is understood that United are considering whether to send Evans for surgery after he limped off with a recurrence of an injury that has bothered him all season.
United can ill afford to lose either player as their other main central defender, Rio Ferdinand, is out with a thigh problem.
Referee Howard Webb did not see the Vidic incident at the DW Stadium but will be asked by the FA what he would have done if he had.
Rodallega certainly made the most of the incident and may even face sanction himself after appearing to shrug off Webb a little too vigorously as the official attempted to calm him down.

slimshay:
at the third or is it fourth goal he didnt exactly join in the group hug, just touch and go,

Maybe he had a quarell with his missus before the encounter

Ha ha ha
Way to premature to start comparing total goals scored by Tev and Rooney
It's just three matches played.
Or else Spurs are justified for wild celebrations going on for topping the league in Week 3

I think Mark Hughes bought players he knows would do some talking for him also
It isn't only Tevez talking, check out what Ade too has been saying
Even Toure started talking rubbish as soon as he saw 'Arab money'

BinghiNya:
None mentioned Gallas's trip on Utaka . If it were United shouts of FA would have come to mind.

Go and watch the replays again and decide for yourself who tripped who.Thank God, the linesman wasn't blind!

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=29783.msg4407582#msg4407582 date=1251061036]Look who's talking. . . .
Man Utd(3 league titles in a row) + 2 UCL finals(including one UCL title) + Carling Cup, + CWC in the last 3 seasons.
SPURS can also boast of a Carling Cup win in the last 2 seasons.[/quote]It's convenient to include the final matches u played and not include the ones we played.
Talk about cosistency!

Calum Davenport injuries could be career-threatening after West Ham defender stabbed in legs
By Matt Barlow

Gianfranco Zola led the messages of support for Calum Davenport, the West Ham defender whose career is in doubt after a knife attack left him with wounds in both legs.

Davenport's condition has stabilised since the stabbing in an incident at his mother's house in Bedford early on Saturday.

His life is no longer in danger but doctors remain concerned that severe artery damage may stop him playing professional football again.

'It will become more clear in the next few days,' said Zola. 'Now, the most important thing is that he is all right.
'We are very sorry about what happened. It is a terrible story. We are close to him. We have to try to imagine what he is going through at the moment and hopefully he will get better.'

Supporters from both West Ham and Tottenham applauded the former Spurs defender Davenport, 26, before yesterday's London derby at Upton Park.
'It's really sad,' said Spurs boss Harry Redknapp. 'I had Calum at Southampton and you couldn't wish to meet a quieter, more laid-back lad. We send him our best wishes.'
Zola said Davenport's injuries would not impact on the future of centre half James Collins, targeted by Aston Villa and Stoke.

Villa boss Martin O'Neill was at Upton Park to check on him yesterday and the Hammers need the money from the sale of Collins to finance the signing of Marouane Chamakh from Bordeaux for £7million

nateevs:
Hey Why are we not making a change yet?
WE should put this game to bed and not risk a draw. . .

Draw for where
even if u had not scored the 2nd,Fulham wont have had anything from this game

Good goal by Nic
Ade had exactly the same one on one against Wolves yesterday and. . . . . . ,  
Never mind. . . . .u know where the ball ended

big father:
What are these burnley guys up to sef ?
Beating dem senior brothers !

I dey fear this Burnley ooh
At least when Hull came last season
we knew Geovanni,Cousin, Boateng and a few others.
In this Burnley team, there is absolutely no star player!
and please dont mention Bikey

BTW, in the other match, everton vs burnley, Saha just played his penalty wide.
Is there some kinda jazz at Burnley?

why did Lamps pass to Malouda who was clearly offside

This Chelsea jersey sef na wa
e be like say e get shoulder pads

@Kit
For how long would we keep talking about Ade?
he isn't as big as Vieira, Henry,Pires,Ljungberg and co that have left Arsenal.
We have wished him the best in his quest at Citeh.
Arseanl isn't going to resign him so pls, let's move on.
I wonder what will happen when Ade goes on a drought(not a curse, because it will happen)

About yesterday's match.
Wasn't opportuned to watch but saw the highlights later on.
How does Diaby do it?
Fantastic in a couple of games and absolute nonsense in others
Hope he can keep it up
Worried about the injury to Fab4.Hope it's not that bad!
All in all, 2 out of 2.
Good start
We visit Old Toilet next after we should have booked the ticket to play CL midweek against Celtic
BTW,the Good fortune smiling on Gallas should please continue, esp. against Manure on Saturday

At times
I wonder how it feels coming to a thread and posting the same thing o'er and o'er again.
IMO, If I were the one, I would feel like an unimaginative Dolt
****Pity****

presido1:
I think this is another achievement. Whats the diff in winning the league in OT or in Riverside. Did they give you 2 trophies for winning it in OT.?
Gayners SMH

Makes it sweeter when you win the trophy at your rival's ground.

FBS:
and are you?  

Meanwhile DK, update your sig. Germany aint the U-19 Champions.

are you minding DK?
He kept hiting his head on the wall, whenever Arsenal scores a goal
and he has a large bump there!
I bet the head would scatter by mid september, because the Arsenal is on the way up!

FBS:
and what should they be doing?

They should be weeping

I love derbies
especially the London ones
Form books thrown outta the window.
Fulham should nick this one.
It's their own world cup final_{West London final}

Nothing much to add!
Burnley has Burnt them to ashes!!!

presido1:
Whatz the diff btw Burnley of this season and Hull/Stoke of last season?

No difference!
but I was ashamed when we lost to them last season.
Not trying to blame a penalty miss or exonerating my Gaffer from the disgrace!
