it is true . .the girls are better than spurs

All those dreaming of buying in January, please wake up o . all those sites can link and relink and unlink , i wont believe nada until i see the smiling player with Aw abs the Jersey on the official site

,holding jersey.Always a good picture and sight until i saw Silvestre smiling in our jersey

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=196574.msg3235897#msg3235897 date=1229520683]It's not rocket science. . . . . . .Aston Villa are a better side than Arsenal THIS SEASON.
Of course, Arsenal should be doing better but with the low confidence, injuries here and there, Marton O'Neill has stolen a march.
Letz see what DUDU would add to the team but he wasn't exactly a ball of fire last season before his gruesome injury.

U GAYnners can be hypocrites. . . . . .Where were y'all when that spastic Cesc said Arsenal female team is better than Tottenham??[/quote]You said this even when the season is yet to finish?Maybe that line woulda been OK if you've added "better than Arsenal this season, so far"
Let's see where their so called good form takes them by the end of the season.
As for Dudu,no one said he was ball of fire,but he was a fox in the box who will put away most of the chances Ade n Persie have been throwin a way as if missing goal is not running out of fashion.And of course,it will be bye-bye to the likes of Bar-tender.Arsenal need anyone they can get back now to get the team moving

Of course i am not countin on our gaffer to buy ANY player at all,but you knw what they say about wishes,

And why is everyone stating the "obvious" about our darling team,they just wanna hear themselves speak innit?

Buncha jokers!

If i were Arsene,all i need is get copies of all these interviews and paste them on the wall of the dressing room,maybe it can do the magic his coaching prowess has failed to do so far.Just maybe,

Olaolufred:
Incidence:

Siasia had a very good move in a match against Cot' d' Ivoire.
He needed only a pass to a more positioned Team mate for them to Score a goal.
Lo, Siasia selfishly blew p the chance.
Discipline:

Siasia was replaced with Amokachi who stole away Jersey completely through that one opportunity.
Since then, Siasia starts most matches from bench.

The Team is a highly competitive Team.

Suffice to state that the player Siasia was supposed to pass to was Rashidi Yekini during a match in Abidjan and yeah it was to begin his resignation to the bench.
Apart from Westerhof technical know-how,it must be stated that Westerhof had time and chance.He started building his team from Algiers 90 through Senegal 92 to Tunisia 94/USA 94.Westerhof can indeed be credited with the career rise and surge of players like Finidi and Amokachi.Who can ever forget the maulin of Burkina Faso by 7 goals and Finidi brilliant run down the right flank.That period,Nigerian players were hungry and anyone with any trait of indiscipline was thoroughly dealt with and rightly so by Westerhof,who was seconded by Bonfrere then.

One factor to be considered also was the emergence of our young team(under-17),that won the Japan 93 under-17 tourney.That team,coached by the wobble and fumble exponent,Fanny Amum had players like Kanu,C.babayaro,Oruma et al who will later peak and also form an integral of the glorious years of naija football by winning the "96 Olympic gold medal.

93 we won the under 17 world cup.By 94 we won the nations cup,was the best fifth team in the world and lost narrowly to Italy in USA94 in one of the best game of the tourney.By 96 we won the Olympic gold medal.

That era was indeed the best for us soccer wise.Indeed it was one thing the Abacha allies was willingly using as a poli[i]trick[/i] campaign then.

debosky:
No info about January as yet, get ready for some mad speculation though - it's started already with Ben Arfa, Chiellini, Mexes, Villa and Gervinho among others being spuriously linked.

The focus should be on winning our remaining games this year - if we do that, then 50% of the job (some consistency) would have been achieved.

We do need players without a doubt, but we need 100% from the current bunch.

Welcome back Dudu,uv been terribly missed and in ur absence the likes of Bendtner have made scoring seem like a camel passing through the eye of the needle

That said,i will like like to see the emboldened names brought into the fray in our darling team.And yes who say we can't?.

Highly unpredictable Gooners against a formadible Liverpool side.

To me its more of an opportunity to get closer to the scousers than to show we can beat the so called big teams.

Go u red n white army!let the points be reduced to 5 because def' Everton will play draw with Chelski and the scummies r on a fruit-less oddysey to Asia

mukina2:
so this was what he was looking for?
a chance to take swipes at us?

Muki rather than take a swipe back at the messenger,why don't you check if the message is true?

Any football aficionado doesn't need a crystal ball to know that our inconsistency and see-saw form will not win us nather,except there is a change for better and a change for worse for the other 3 contenders,which is not impossible but unlikely.

I agree with you Debo that we need a drastic measure in getting in @ least a player this January,it must be a BIG time player(big name),but an effective and efficient personnel like Flamini will do.

As someone already stated in his post,its a MIRACLE we are not so far behind,thus Arsene and the club management need to capitalize on this, to  bring about an improvement to our paper-thin squad,and convincingly so too.


And B.T.W,what is it with London fans and booing.The wankford bridge faithfuls seem to have caught the bug too

[quote author=~Sauron~ link=topic=196587.msg3223486#msg3223486 date=1229278774]It was as bad as Arsenal, Liverpool and Man Utd. . . . .
None of the so called BIG FOUR is FIRING and it's disappointing.
This is the 2nd weekend none of the BIG FOUR copped 3 points. . . . . .Is this a set up?[/quote]You took the words out of my keyboard.I told a friend yday after Arsenal's match that everyother BIG 4 will drop points.
Is there a written script?Is someone pulling the string somewhere?ITS ALL LOOKING TOO PREDICTABLE

Where is the cocky and myopically clairevoyant naive nateev.

Goin reh reh reh about the draw the other 3 teams cupped yesterday.

Just feel i should share this with fellow gooners.It's a piece written by Palmer Myles,written actually before our game @ tyneside.

The areas that interest me are emboldened

Arsene Wenger knows he is skating on thin ice now.

If he loses at Middlesbrough, that will be six league games lost out of 17 and fourth place will be in jeopardy.
That was why he rested seven players in midweek.

Many Gooners  probably think that Arsenal have to beat Middlesbrough to justify the pathetic way they played at Porto.

Personally, I don’t want to dwell on Wednesday night. I don’t really want to write 25 pars about a Matchday 6 game that took place after Arsenal had qualified for the last 16 of the Champions League.

Was losing 2-0 important? No. Was losing in such a feeble manner embarrassing? Yes. Because a proper football club has to have a minimum level of performance, and this was far below any of the shabby efforts we’ve sometimes seen since 1996.

However, Porto wasn’t just an off-night or a bad day at the office. It was a game which exposed Wenger's strategy and philosophy more vividly than any other I can remember. His squad players and his teenagers were simply not good enough to make a game of it. He has a decent first eleven when they are all fit. After that, not much. Just some promising kids.

We saw the unmarked Bruno Alves head in a corner. He is the kind of big centreback that Wenger refuses to sign to prevent such goals being conceded. Porto play a technical game but they are not so snobbish as to ignore the fundamentals of football.

Their second goal wasn’t a breakaway against an Arsenal team that was pressing for the equaliser. When Fernando had the ball in the centre circle there were five defenders in front of him and all of them showed how clueless they are, how undrilled they are, how they have no shape, no discipline, no understanding as a unit, no good habits to fall back on. Silvestre was five yards out of position, Eboue was playing Lisandro onside, Djourou raised his arm because he may have assumed Eboue was in line behind him, a very, very reckless assumption if he made it. And Lisandro cruised into the box and fired past Almunia. The only defender who saw the danger, the only one who reacted, was Gallas, who got there too late because he had to race across the box from beyond Djourou. Professional football? Don’t make me laugh.

As many people expected, Wenger threw away the Porto game because he believes Middlesbrough is far more important. He needs those three points to keep him in the top four and keep the Champions League money rolling in.

Unfortunately, it is now clear to me that the Arsenal team is in decline because of a failed philosophy, a strategy that has not worked. If any coach on this planet could make a kids policy work, it's Wenger.

But it hasn’t worked and it won’t work and some of his best players are leaving because of it. Investing three years in Hleb and Flamini is no good  if they leave to join clubs that can win trophies. Hleb and Flamini thought : we want it now, we’re a long time retired. Stay at Arsenal, stay with a manager who doesn’t teach defence, win nothing, expect to win nothing. Where’s the fun in that?

In general, a football club and its fans live on the hope of success. Right now, most sensible Arsenal fans no longer expect to win a trophy this season. What they’re watching now is an unbalanced and vulnerable team whose season could end in February.

As we all know, football is about players. Is it too much to expect to see a reasonably balanced team of men who can compete for trophies? True, Arsenal beat Manchester Utd and Chelsea but what use is that if you lose to Hull, Fulham and Stoke? Anyway, United had a bad day at the office. As they say in the City, that 2-1 win was a rally in a bear market. The overall trend is downwards. On a bad night Liverpool are never as bad as Arsenal were in Porto. Same with Man Utd and Chelsea. They can stumble and stutter and bore you to tears but they’ll never be as comprehensively hopeless as poor Almunia’s rabble were on Matchday 6 in the Dragao.

The unpalatable truth is that Arsenal can no longer compete with the best, so fans are starting to change their ideas about what they are seeing, starting to stay away, starting to examine their own blind loyalty and see the squad for what it really is, an unreliable, divided outfit which is a shadow of the vibrant team that topped the table for six months last season.

In May, The Guardian summed up each team's 2007-2008 season in five words.

Man Utd : Glory, goals, Munich, harmony, Ronaldo.
Chelsea : So near yet so far.
Arsenal : Scintillating until squad depth exposed.
Liverpool : Thanks heavens for European football.
Aston Villa : Good but can get better.

Since then Liverpool have become consistent, Chelsea play more attractively and will get key warriors Carvalho and Essien back next month, Cristiano Ronaldo isn't  red-hot any more but United still have by far the best strikers, four of them, and Arsenal's squad depth has been exposed before Xmas rather than after it.

What will happen in the January transfer window? Only one thing for sure : President Obama will be sworn in. This part is actually funny

But 2009 might be the year when change could happen at Arsenal, which is still, undeniably, a unique club with a DNA like no other among the 92 in England, and potential like no other.

No other club with so much potential could have been a sleeping giant for all those years before they won the Fairs Cup in 1970, when the club was run by cautious Ken Friar, a former tea boy and wages clerk who feared debt and risk and oversaw 16 years of respectable failure. Arsenal lacked ambition because the directors were semi-detached and let Friar run the whole club. The arrival of one new director, David Dein, in 1983, pushed the club forward at last, George Graham took two titles off Liverpool, and Dein brought a brilliant, modernising French manager to the club in 1996 and Arsene Wenger took three titles off Manchester United.

It was a lot of fun when those two rivals had a duopoly for eight years,  unless you were a supporter of the other 18 clubs in the Premier League. Dein and Wenger was the most entertaining partnership since Butch Cassidy & the Sundance Kid but in 2003 they realised that they faced a new ball-game when Abramovich arrived.

The duopoly was broken by Chelski, which brought bitter rivals Sir Alex and Arsene a bit closer to together. Danny Fiszman knows that Wenger is no quitter, so he knew he would not walk when he sacked Dein. But that left Wenger surrounded by a bunch of yes-men who owed their careers to him, all except physio Gary Lewin.

In 2008, Arsene Wenger has lost Dein, Flamini, Hleb, Lewin and club doctor Ian Beasley, who will now join Lewin at the FA to work with England. Lewin was instrumental in bringing Beasley to Arsenal six years ago, so theirs is a strong relationship.

After all that, Wenger must now feel very isolated, especially as the club has had no chief executive since Keith Edelman was sacked in May. I've said for years that he needs a strong No.2.

He is a workaholic who does not delegate and does not want to be contradicted. He would rather do it all himself and work 16 hours a day, so he must have done 25 years of work in the 12 years since he arrived. That's why he’s lost the plot and that's why Arsenal are in such a precarious position now, in danger of losing their top four spot to Aston Villa.

Sir Alex Ferguson believes that every great manager needs a strong No.2. Brian Clough had Peter Taylor, Bill Shankly had Bob Paisley. I know for a fact that Sir Alex has told Arsene he needs a sounding board, somebody to bounce ideas off.

So that’s where we are. Arsene Wenger has lost the plot and needs help. Maybe he can get it from new CEO Ivan Gazidis and Stan Kroenke. Stan was at Thursday's board meeting. Something good might happen soon. You never know in this game. It's full of surprises

You are happy with a draw?? Cheese n Rice. . . . .GAYnners have reduced themselves to serial muppets.
I can never be happy with a draw against any TEAM in the PREM.
United always win.

Now it's happened,so what

No car no shit aint the issue man. You guys are not into car business but music business. This fool keeps confirming why he's  one. Does nice refer to himself as a rapper or a hiphop head? You and the rapper fool and you are the person in question. Leave nice out of it. and come to think of it, NICE IS BIGGER DAN U TOO!!!!

How you doin Java,i have copped the album too and well just typical Mode,on point hip hop wise.Though i feel e pluribus unum is a better album.Contradiction is one of my all time best,so is Turangiwa,Journey so far,SPECTACULAR and Fellow Nigerians.These present album so far,i can only feel my skin is black and Nine,maybe the rest will grow on me,just maybe,

Mode is a lyricist,everyone knows that even a deaf man knows that .Will i ever compare Rugged to him?Its like comparing Ludacris and Nas.But wait,didnt Ludacris feature on Nas' Made you look? It is my way of saying these 2 artistes can co-exist without this brouhaha.Rugged is good at what he does,so is Mode.

A point to note although is that Mode will not and can not end Rugged's career.Nigerian music history is replete with beefs in various genre of Music.From Ayinla epo Akara to Haruna Ishola,Barrister and Kollingthon,Shina Peters and Segun Adewale,the list is non exhaustive,and non has been able to terminate each other's career.Otherwise the beef thingy heightens sales of each party as every musician in Nigeria,however wack,has his or her own follower.

What will and can end Rugged's career and drop his rep so to say is the route he follows,and he has two options which i will quickly highlight here:

He can either follow's Biggie's route with life after death after the Hit em off diss.Biggie,rather than go all out for 2pac,did what we can refer to as subtle responses to 2pac's hyperventilation in various tracks of his rather than go for the kill.If he had done it and misfired,who knows,it may have been his musical obsequies.

The second option is what i term as the Jarule's option.When Fiddy came in2 the scene,he destroyed Ja's sand castle with his expletives/diss at Ja.What did Ja do?He released a whole album laced with tracks efforted to get back at Fiddy.Ja misfired,thus ending his own career.Maybe if hes gone ahead with his bubble gum cookie monster vibes,maybe it will still be uhuru.Just maybe, B. T. W Is Fifty not doing what Ja was accused of then right now?

So Rugged cld either keep quiet and continue is so called bubble gum jives or try to get hardcore and miss it all together.He is not and will never be Mode,he's only been himself with these songs he's been doing,the reason he claims he's being real ,and really, he's real

I love this 2 artistes and i hope some Alaba marketer can capitalise on this tensed atmosphere to bring them to make a track,if it's wack,it WILL be a HIT because of this.

Just my 2 cents though

Oh,and to the embolded part of your post,even Mode claimed Maintain is richer than Rugged!Is Maintain a rapper or claimed to be a hip hop head?

@Debo

I agree with all you posted and i think the game today is a marked contrast to what it's been in the last few matches against the non-BIG 4 teams.

Save or for the early part of the season when we played Blackburn and Bolton away,our matches could match-day form could best be described as a mirage of typical Arsenal's free flowing football.

Contrary to most people's feeling towards the game today,i must say am a lil' pleased with the lads disposition and attitude.Save for one moment of "madness" from the defence and Gallas penchance for "switching off", the game was quite better than the insipidity and lethargic-nature of the previous matches.

Also i hope Wenger noticed that the fact that he makes central-minded players like Diaby and Denilson play at the flank is inimical to our fluidity.There is no pace at all at the flank nd i hope he goes for @ least a natural winger this January.

Had to be theTUNISIA/ USA 94 team that narrowly lost out Baggio during the most tedious 120 secs in the history of Nigeria football.There was tenacity,guile,swagger and artistry soccer-wise.This team was even 5th in FIFA ranking prior to the world Cup.The Amunekes,Amokachis,Oliha,Rufai(@his peak then) and not forgetting the goal-machine Rashidi Yekini.Chidi Nwanu,Eguavon,Finidi et al.Spirited Nigerian footballers coached by the no nonsense Westerhof. _{i salute abeg}

These matches prove more difficult for us when these teams have been losing on a losing streak.They tend to garner this supernatural footballing prowess as soon as their opponents are the lads from Ashburton Groove.
