[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=270819.msg4059204#msg4059204 date=1245448401]O'Shea? What passion has he got? How is he any different to Adebayor or even Bendtner?
JOS does what he's paid to do. . . . .He lacks the extra factor that players like Ade possess in abundance.
Passion is Wayne Rooney, Gerrard, Tevez and Gallas.[/quote]O'shea shows passion and  puts in effort without a doubt.Inspite of his lack of extra factor,he was an integral part of your title-winning squad last season,not with the way he was been pushed around.Thats BTW,there's a reason Ade's name is not on your list of passionate player,no?  

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=270819.msg4059204#msg4059204 date=1245448401]Cesc is the heart n soul of Arsenal. . . . . .He reminds me of George Hagi of Romania in em days.
When Cesc plays well, Arsenal play well and that is how important he is to the team.
If he had shown 60% of what he showed in the early months of 07/08 season, Arsenal woulda won one title at least last season.[/quote]You are right about Cesc having a a BIG ROLE to play in our squad and the reason why he failed this last season can not be over-emphasized.
The loss of his allies(Flamini & Hleb) in the mid-field was part of the reason(this also affected Ade too without a doubt) BUT dude, Ade was just piss-poor over-all.
Smiling when we are trailing behind,wandering off-side relentlessly et al.If Ade was like this 2 seasons ago,he would have been sold off.Wonder why no one his romanticing dude this summer like the previous one?

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=270819.msg4059204#msg4059204 date=1245448401]Wenger should be blamed. . . . . .A coach's nous can contribute to his team conceding 2goals in 120 secs.
It's called mental FATIGUE. Arsene believes in paper-thin squad and that means overusing one's resources unnecessarily.
Do u really think SAF is stupid for having 50 something players in his kitty? Macheda, Welbeck, Gibson, etc? It's a way of easing the burden of his prized players and this is why Giggsy and Scholesy can turn it ON when their services are required on special nights,[/quote]The match i  cited was played Oct 29 dude,what kinda of mental fatique are you talking about?
The type you experience in the first half of the season and recover from at a latter part of the season?
Enlighten me pls

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=270819.msg4059204#msg4059204 date=1245448401]So let Wenger buy Torres then . . . . .How much was Torres, how much was Ade?
Y'all talk as if Ade just strolled into the Arsenal team like a vagabond. . . . .Your gaffer brought him to Arsenal and he was not as expensive as Nando.
When u pay dearly for a commodity, u shall reap it's benefits.
Arsenal is getting what Ade's worth and i am bold to say he has given more than what y'all guys paid to get him.[/quote]If remuneration is directly proportional to performance and output,you remember one Berbatov?
Ade's take-home pay was even hiked based on his one-season wonder,yet he decided to give back a lesser performance and languid disposition.
You think he was paid to score wonder goal against Villareal alone?Bleep him  

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=270819.msg4059204#msg4059204 date=1245448401]But RVP is sacred. . . . . .How many seasons now that he hasn't scored 14 league goals in one season?
There's a reason RVP doesn't get mentioned as a dud. . . . . ,[/quote]This is realistically RVP first full season with us,and how many times did he bail us out this season sef.

Ade's SIN is his SKIN.[/quote]Leading a lost racist soul out of a self-induced labyrinth is not my forte.
Pardon me if i pass on this one.

To those throwing the race-mantra as an excuse for Ade being picked on,i am sure you do not surf around Arsenal fan sites and blog to see the way an erstwhile hated Song is being praised after he upped his performance.Even Eboue who was loudly booed found his way back into fans' heart.

Bendtner?Sunday league?

Ade is just a loquacious and garrulous twerp who needs his mouth braced and locked and the key fed to a big whale.

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=270819.msg4058980#msg4058980 date=1245445168]What passion are we talking about here?[/quote]The same passion that you see a tactless mule like O'Shea display week in week out inspite of his lack of technique and football-brain that the likes of Rio and Vidic have.You can't ever fault O'shea's gut and effort.

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=270819.msg4058980#msg4058980 date=1245445168]Adebayor was injured for most parts. . . . .How many games did he start compared to 2007/8 season.
Abeg, make we hear word. . . . . . .Cesc was the biggest culprit. . . .He was shit throughout the season.[/quote]Adebayor was injured,so was Cesc so i dunno what you are on about.

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=270819.msg4058980#msg4058980 date=1245445168]Someone must speak the truth. . . . . .Why ain't you dissing Gallas who said your players ain't fit for purpose?
His rants were swept under the carpet because he is not an African like ADE and yet y'all GAYnners continue to foam in the mouth.
If you are going to blame Emmanuel, please blame Wenger and other players.[/quote]Of course if Wenger did take the glory for all the trophies he's led his wards to win since he arrived,he must be blamed for the shenanigan that ensued since the trophylessness.That said . . . . . . . . . Is it a coach's lack of nous that will make a team a team conceed 2 goals with 120 secs to go in a match a ala our match against the Spuds ?Some of this players need to be sent to the guillotine really.And yeah,Gallas goofed and suffered the consequence(loss of captainship) but since then you can't fault his contribution too.Ade is a Arrow.It is no coincidence he's hated by all except Kit.

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=270819.msg4058980#msg4058980 date=1245445168]Since Henry left, he has been your most prolific striker.[/quote]It is amazing how y'all can forget Ade scored 30 goals and lost 30 begging chances.
Put Torres in his boots for that season and see his score 100 goals,with selfless creator like Hleb and Fabregas,you can not go wrong.

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=270819.msg4058980#msg4058980 date=1245445168]Eduardo? Nah. . . . .Bendtner? . . .Blah. . . . .Vela? Rubbish.
Until another player bangs 30 goals a season, ADE's balls should be licked by y'all GAYnner ingrates.[/quote]Vela rubbish?with how many playing times?Are you OK at all?
Until dude changes his attitude,his balls you be chopped and fed to birds of the air.

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=270819.msg4058852#msg4058852 date=1245442856]Y'all GAYnners are just using Ade as a scape-goat!
Arsenal failed to win anything this season because many of your good players failed to perform.
Cesc Fabregas was the biggest culprit. . . . .before his injury, he was shit!!!
Bendtner was wack, Toure and Gallas lost form. Denilson wasn't up for it and Almunia should be sold.[/quote]It's a no brainer that most of the lads under-performed this season BUT you can't fault the passion with which most of them played still.

Ade just seemed like a player that doesn't care and was GUTLESS.

Let's forget Ade's malfeasance for his club thus expired season,have you read his lastest regarding his national team?

Dude needs attitudinal re-adjustment really.

Dr Kitaun:
@Jackal

where were these guys in the days of;

HENRY VS RVN ?

GALLAS VS HEINZE ?

PIRLO VS RIQUELME ?

ETOO VS DROGBA ?

to name a few . . .

So because "these guys" weren't here during the days of your Methuselaric and stale argument meant they have no right to make contributions now?

Dude you need to come off your high horses and stop making narccistic posts everywhere

You've been registered in NL since the Dinosaur era,so what?

Abeg go sit down and stop riding on Ade's dick

Uche2nna:
Says who?  

It goes to show how much he cherishes his girl,,,,,,

I dont even see why the girl should be angry    She should be happy in my opinion.

As for Mr. disturbed,

It is human to be jealous about stuff we cherish but I have some issues on the way U went about it. IMO, U should have played it cool. U might be jealous but dont let her know that U are , at least not on that one count. Give her room to burn out her excitement. It is a good thing that she is letting U know that she is all gaga about seeing this guy,,,,, what U dont know is why? It might be platonic , it might be romantic and that's for U to find out. Do not assume or U might lose ur girl due to lack of trust.

Moreso, U would prefer that U know whats going on,,,,, I know most girls that would act as if nothing dey happen while secretly seeing the guy on the side. It seems ur girl has been honest with U so far and that is a rare trait in girls these days. The worst that would happen is that U lose girl to another guy but at least U will know whats going on.

Keep calling her today to see if she would pick up. At the end of the day if she does not pick up, quit calling her. Give her time to stew and let her call U if she will. if she does not, then brace up to losing ur girl  

I was almost giving up until you came along.

Nice one there  

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=285889.msg4052920#msg4052920 date=1245361258]I am disappointed. . . . .

Why can't men of these days hang on and win simple battles?[/quote]Blinkered first?

Battle in a relationship?

Sauron are you involved in a serious relationship at all?

I have nailed a babe like that in Naija before and she introduced me to her boyfriend before the nailing.
I can guarantee you by the time the OP discovers, Mr Singapore woulda shagged his babe at least a dozen times.
Never let your guard down when it comes to Naija babes.[/quote]Abeg stop all this fallacy of hasty generalization.
The fact it happens to you does not mean every girl practices that,no?

ElRazur:
Something scary I have noticed here is how people paint a picture of how easy one can lose their woman in Naija. Is this true? Lol.

Some of the stories on NL are mainly fables.
And you will be surprised if half of the gals in Nigeria decides to narrate their guys sexcapades  on here,
The male gender are worse off.

@OP

If you can't stand the heat,stay off the kitchen.
Some of your decisions in allowing your lady "mingle" could come back to bite you.

[quote author=TOPE2000! link=topic=285889.msg4052444#msg4052444 date=1245356412]I guess maybe she expected them to laugh abt it, like they usually do [/quote]Of course!

There have been precedents and all of a sudden she's been charged at for what's common place in their relationship.

I will be bothered by this unprecedented outburst too,especially if i have nothing up my sleeve.

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=285889.msg4052431#msg4052431 date=1245356307]What if she was using reverse psychology as well??[/quote]The smokescreen can't be maintained for too long honestly if that is the case.

I'll rather ther OP discover if there is any major development by waiting and watching rather than concluding based on her lady's gay countenance.

[quote author=TOPE2000! link=topic=285889.msg4052414#msg4052414 date=1245356104]I still dont understand why she is angry? you shud be the angry one [/quote]She's riled 'cos her man is angered by a routine gist.

disturbed:
The reason i got angry was the way she talked about the guy. It was different from the others.
When she was talking, i kept quiet because i didnt want to sound unreasonable. .and ofcourse jealous.

Are sure you are not the one that felt the difference in countenance based on the fact you feel there's something different about the guy.

I feel if she's upto something,she wouldn't even discuss it with you or rather make the meeting seem irrelevant as much as possible.

disturbed:
Now she's angry. I dont want to call her. I want her to call me. And she hasnt. Calling her would mean i'm admitting missng her and that i was wrong being jealous. although i really miss her.

Do not let your ego lead you astray  

You can call her to set things straight.

An album that has Free,Down there,Flex,No ordinary love(with Mellisa Briggs),Free and other good songs is wack

You can argue that 2face has set a higher standard with his first and sophomore solo efforts in terms of dance-able and radio friendly tracks embedded in them,but to call Unstoppable wack is preposterous.

Oh Lord . . .

to faithful Gunners . . .

I dont like the idea of Arsenal playing Chelsea,MANURE,L'POOL all in Jan/Feb 10. . . .why? its African Nations cup period and we tend to loose about 4 - 6 players during that period . . .i pray i pray i pray . . .

AW needs to buy players from other continent and not from Africa this time . . .

Feels so good to be back  

I think the supposedly easy fixtures we had at the early part of last season was one of the MAJOR reason we had a relaxed approach culminating in dismal performances by our lads.As it was,the boys raised their game for the so-called BIG games. . . . .forgetting the league is not all about winning the "big matches" BUT copping 3-points against all opponents,including the small teams.

This season will be an interesting one going by the fixtures(Only 2 home games in first 2 month) and the KEY during this preparatory stage is getting the right personnels for the weak positions(CB and DF) and not forgetting the forthcoming ACN should be an index in whoever we want to sign.

LWKM ooooooooooooooooo
