wow
This 2nd half is different oooooo[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=449342.msg6078286#msg6078286 date=1274557825]Stop lying. . . . .It was United that went gung ho in the first 15 mins forcing Barca to defend.[/quote]What ??
Some speculative shots by Ronaldo
what happened after then?
You were pegged back and chased the ball throughout the game.
One of the most one sided CL finals ever.
It was too easy for Barca
[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=449342.msg6078286#msg6078286 date=1274557825]Brazil did not go gung ho against Germany in 2002.
It was the most cautious final ever. . . . .Ronaldo didn't find the net until the 67th minute or so.[/quote]Very funny
and Brazil had up to 6-7 shots on target in the first half
[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=449342.msg6078286#msg6078286 date=1274557825]Arsenal went 1-0 up from a dodgy freekick after Eboue dived. . . .
Until then, [b]Arsenal offered nothing cos Wenger played 4-5-1 formation([/b]U need to really do something about your AMNESIA).[/quote]Yet, Henry had two shots on goal in the first few minutes
I wonder who needs to do something about  his selective memory

Dayo keeps screaming about Muller
He's missed from 5 yards with the Goalie stranded

jalether:
What's the purpose of attacking footie that has yielded no end product for the past 5/6 seasons?

and obviously, for you, football just started some 5-6 seasons ago.
It's your first double ever.
Ask cashley, he's won the double before at Arsenal

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=449342.msg6078205#msg6078205 date=1274556778]So only moves that resulted in goals should count as attacking football.
What about attacking moves that were stopped by both defences. . . .
It's a FINAL match. . . . .U shouldn't expect any of the teams to go gung-ho. . [/quote]What are you saying.?
It depends on the footie philosophy.
Barca went gung-ho against Manure last season's final and it was total dominance from start to finish
Brazil went gung-ho against Germany in 2002 World Cup finals and we know the result

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=449342.msg6078205#msg6078205 date=1274556778]. Arsenal were more negative in 2006 against Barca.[/quote]Yet Arsenal went 1-0 up with a man down.
That was the wrongest line in the world to put up to support this your arguement
[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=449342.msg6078205#msg6078205 date=1274556778]So Wenger plays more attacking football than Louis van Gaal?
HNIC, go and swallow Valium.[/quote]I have watched Bayern and Arsenal this season and I can tell you that Arsenal plays a more attack minded formation compared to Bayern.We are not talking about results here, we are talking about formation

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=449342.msg6078153#msg6078153 date=1274556234]I thunk you said Inter aren't going all out attack. . . .
U chat bollocks sometimes.[/quote]How was the goal scored?
It wasn't a great attack build up play
It was route one footie, Goalie whacked the ball up in the air
Dont get me wrong
All i said was both managers are not the type who play attacking football all through.
I didn't even criticise them at all
I was just replying bges who said it was drab at the moment

Howard Webb
So far so good

Now the match has just started,
Bayern have to come out
Would Robben be the saviour again?

Milito scores!!!!!
What a goal
Inter in front

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=449342.msg6078103#msg6078103 date=1274555701]Are you watching another match?

Jose Mourinho(4-2-1-3)
Louis van Gaal(4-4-2).

If those formations ain't attacking footie, i don't know what is. . . .[/quote]Those are the formations on paper.
Its been cagey so far.
Most of the action has been in the midfield, with the strikers dropping real deep.
How many attempts on goal have we seen so far.
Neither team is ready to gamble with more players going forward

Just how old is Zanetti?
He runs faster than a lotta players I know

bgees:
its kind of drab at the moment.

Neither one of the two managers favour all out attack footie like Barca or Arsenal

Was that a goal attempt by Robben??

Looking one sided as we speak
It's Inter doing the attacking

Wasteful shot from Maicon

Inter are the team attacking

Akolawole:
@HNIC

Can we send somebody to watch the game with Dayo?

I am really worried.

@Akolawole
Naah
Dayo will be here watching but won't post.
If Bayern wins, he will post at the end of the match
But if they lose, he will be on exile for at least 3 days minimum.
When barca anhiliated bayern in last season's CL, he disappeared for about 2 weeks.

Bayern have tried to get to this stage.
The Florentina fiasco and the sending off of Rafael.
End of the road,Inter would win comfortably.
Muller and Olic vs Lucio and Samuel=Mismatch

A repeat of the 2004 finals in which Porto beat Monaco
Inter 3-O Bayern Rubbish
Etoo with a brace

It's official
Chamakh is a Gunner

dayokanu:
Even a blind man would see similarities between the last 3 posters.

They are fans of trophyless teams. They havent won any thing in 5 seasons. What Bayern won over the last one week is more than what you have won since the creation of NL.?

And football started same time NL was created
Bring Bayern to the EPL to come and win a 'double'. . . . let's see

Que'st que c'est?

It has to be Daniel ' The Bull' Amokachi.
He was what a second striker should be in a 4-4-2 set up.
Strong, aggresive,pacy and, he had a never say die attitude.
Westerhof said he was one player that gave 110% on the football field.
Those are my kinda players.
Football can be likened to a war and Damn, Amo was a Warrior.
Wish we had players like that in the present set up

ritchboy:
but HNIC, i think PEREZ was sold released signed by Villareal in his prime at 32. . . Or was it 33?

Don't mind the guy. . . . .
Perez ko Neves ni

dayokanu:
UEFA is a bunch of Assholes, How can they allow Howard Webb to refer a CL final?

is this Faggitsons way of getting back at Bayern? Expect Robbens leg to be axed without as much as a caution

Excuses already

well, Mr Fabregas, answer the question!

dayokanu:
Meaning its the below world class players are the ones in the EPL. Dont you notice how CR7 and Fabregas upon seeing that they are better than this crap decided to move on

Pray,
Has Francesc Fabregas left Arsenal?

asscend:
Arsene sold Anelka, Henry, Perez, guys who were at their peak.

Ha ha ha
I love the internet(freedom of speech)
Anelka sold at his peak
Henry
Pires

Krayola:
Wenger won't let fab go unless he gets some ridiculous deal with jara on top.

Heard the Barca officials have departed London with the speed of Bolt and Johnson combined .
I can imagine AW,Gazadis and Hillwood all saying in unison:'Tell Laporta, its 80m or 30m+Messi and Iniesta, otherwise f*** off'

Rubbish list

akinalabi:
Maybe he'll take a masive pay cut

Definitely, a massive pay cut

Eastbay:
New contract for doing what?
Sitting on the bench after those 55 year-old legs can't carry him on the pitch any longer?

Una dey yab Kanu too much,Kanu can't be that old joo
Even Pompey fans sang that 'he was 62 years old'

eldee:
I call B.S . . . France 98 team had Lebouf and Petit in the final's starting line-up.
Their players even came to England after the World Cup to step up . . . Dessailly, Guivarch and Barthez, about half their team has played in the EPL at one time or the other.

Only one World Cup final has featured less than two players from the Premiership since the EPL started.

Patrick Vieira was introduced with a few minutes to go and he laid on the pass for Manu Petit  to score the 3rd goal for FRance

FBS:
Yeah right. . .if? Fact is you did not. and he is leaving because he desires to be a WINNER.

The If is to let you know that whatever hapenned to him at Arsenal, he will always return to Barca one day.And we Arsenal fans know that.

FBS:
What did you do with the money made from Ade's sale?

Are you by any chance suggesting we haven't done anything with Ade's money?
16.5=Arshavin
10= Vermaelen

Money well spent, if you ask me!

slimshay:
HNIC, Fabregas should not be sold, I cannot come up with any permutation that is to our avantage on the matter.

Hasnt it been our biggest stick that all we care about is money and have no ambitions, when the truth is that we were cash strapped. Now we have said we have some money to spend to add to our ambitions. So how does selling our NUMBER 1 performer, and club captain factor into that equation.

We are not selling Cesc.

@Slimshay
It's not my desire to see Cesc go.
No way.
But if his mind is made up and wants to leave , why not.
I don't believe in keeping a player who is not happy playing for the club.
Read earlier that we have placed 80m on him
Good
Laporta and co, show us the money!

nateevs:
Need I remind you dude of a certain gent named Ashley Cole. . ?
He's won 5 trophies since he left North London. . .
And currently the best left back in the world and playing in the best side in the PL. . .

How do you explain "never get it right again"?

@Nateevs
You Chavs never cease to amaze me
For most of y'all, the EPL started some 5 years ago.
What has Cashley won in Chelsea that he has not won at Arsenal?
Is it the 'double'?, he won it  earlier in 02.
Is it the EPL title? he's won it before in style.(38 matches, no single loss).
So, what new trophy has he won at West London?(and pls dont mention the milk cup).
