Crazy Kid have you heard your twin brother, find out the webster's definition of "LENGEND", before you attach it to any name.

GONNER 89

Huccy Boy!! here the official statement;

http://www.arsenal.com/article.asp?thisNav=News&article=416226&lid=NewsHeadline&Title=Arsenal+Holdings+plc+-+Statement

and here is the likely true scenario;

http://football.guardian.co.uk/News_Story/0,,1873107,00.html

Well i have my own views on the sudden dangerous trend taking place in football, but here is not the place and now is not the time for a rant. after sunday will start a threto critically look at this, as this trend spells trouble in more names than one.

Hey huccy, hope you are practising your dance steps

crazy child!! you are so funny!? i am still in on the floor laughing, i mean; ROONEY/SAHA, LEGENDS!? who bestowed it on them, the QUEEN?

GONNER 89

Crazy Child did you actually say this

crazykid:
imagine wenger comparing a rookie like van persie and fabregas to the great ever legends such as, Rooney, Saha

Rooney and Saha are Legends , legends of what i might ask , oh!! i get it , its one of those ironic statements, ok then. You are forgiven

It seemed the Moderators forgot to change your word "legend" onto "wannabes". So i can't blame you for that blunder. (Admin takenote pls, NO MORE BLUNDERS )

GONNER 89

Oh Dearie me!  My! My! Huccy , it seems you are getting your panties in a bunch, i do remember saying this earlier on, at the start of this thread, and i quote;

Win or lose on sunday, it will be just one game Won or Lost, and 3 points dropped!!

If we WIN does that mean Man U are finished for the season, NO, if we lose does that do any harm to us, other than making it even more unbearable to listen to the constant S@#T coming out of the Manc camp, I WOULD THINK NOT.

And i still stand by that statement, i also remember saying that if we lost, i would be the first to raise my hat off to Man united and their supporters, i also wish you Manyoo Devils would do the same if the situation was the reverse (Huc i think you better start getting in some "kiss ass" practice, cause thats what your gonna be doing on monday, KISSING ALL OUR ASSES. SO YOU BEST PUCKER UP!!!

As my oga Bola Oni would say "leave story for tortise!?"

Sunday is just around the corner, so everyone can talk all they want, till 3.59 pm then all the talking stops. Cause "ACTIONS WILL DEFINATELY SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORD!!"

All my Nairaland GONNERS (Objective or Biased ) can i get an AMEN

GONNER 89

Ok well Sunday is just some hours away, all this Man United will do this, Man United will do this

Let us wait and see, i am tired of all the boasting going on

What i will say in ending IS,

ARSENAL WILL THRASH UNITED!!!!

GONNER 89

dayokanu:
I am neither a fan of Man U or Arsenal but we all know that Man U is not in Arsenals class Man U is Far better in the past, present in the future I can't tell
Instead `Arsenal should occupy themselves with escaping relegation first then go from there

Guy i guess you have made your point (you are entitled to that) Now do like CASPER THE GHOST and disappear, (do it slowly and we won't ever notice you posted on this thread!!)

GONNER 89

Ok peeps Enough of all the horse trading and posturing!!

I decided to wait until i watched both United and Arsenals CL games, before contributing my thoughts again on what will hopefully be a cracker of a match, (immediately following another cracker in Pool vs Chelski ).

Now with uncertainty hanging over Kolo and Th14, we really look like being in the s@#t on Sunday. Missing Titi can be dealt with, i actually feel right now we even play far better with him not being around as it is clear he is still not on form (however his mere presence on the pitch does a lot to instill confidence in our lads, so its a true "Catch 22" situation)

Now defence wise, we have a dilenma, frankly my defence would be

Eboue     Kolo     Gallas     Flamini

i don't think either Hoyte or Djourou can do a job for us, although if Kolo is not available then a Djourou/Gallas partnership is manageable ( i think Lehman has to take control of that defence like he did last year ) one major thing, if Eboue decides per adventure to overlap, he better make sure he doesn't chicken out when he gets behind their defence, (which he will do) and becomes more desicive.

The defence pairing above should be able to handle Shrek (Ronney) and Twinkle Toes (Ronaldo), where we might/will have a problem is with Louis, Abdominable Snow Man (scholesy) and the deceptive Baby Face Assasin (Ole), seeing that Pretty boy (Giggsy) and Ji Parky will both be unavoidably absent.

Now this game will be won or lost in the midfield, and that is where we have a dilenma on our hand on who to play. Personally i would prefer a 4-4-2 formation, witha midfield of

Walcott   Gilberto   Fabregas    Rosicky

This Midfield has pace/directiveness written all over it, on the flanks will be two runners to give their Defence something to think about, and we do know that Le Prof, will now actually unleash Dumplings (Rosicky) and we will now finally see more shots outside the 18 (Arsenal's success is based on pace, skill and movement, and this midfield has all 3 qualities) Berti should be able to shepard the Million Dollar Man (Carrick), Flecther and Snow Man, but Fabo will have to also help out with defensive duties. (the beast and helb can come in later if we need to slow the game down, or Playboy Model (Freddie), if we need grit and steel) for once in a long time we are spoiled for choice.

Up front, sorry Gonners but i would go for

RVP and Kanu 2

with TH14 coming in in the second half to just add more spice if need be.

All in all, like i said, this game will be won or lost in the Midfield, we need to take our chances, cause if we don't Man United will skin us, the ironic and good exception being; Manyoo will actually allow us play our game (counter attacking footie) as they will attack us as well. i expect some luck or silly mistake to play their part in the outcome, (Somehow this has "a draw" written all over this fixture , anyway i would take that)

But do not be decieved, even though we are underr dogs, we can actually go to OT and get a win, Man utd in the last few weeks have dropped their cautious game and are attacking teams hard but they have had to sacrafice some defensive stability as well. This is why I feel we might have a chance because our players who are failing right now may have a lot more space infront of them to play with which makes it easier for them.

All in all It is gonna be damn hard and there is a good chance of us losing but I wouldn't rule us out just yet, they will attack us and leave themselves open and we have to seize our moments. If we do that, or even score first and make them chase the game, then i see us coming out with a win (close game, but Arsenal on top)

Prediction 2-1 to the ARSENAL

"BRING SUNDAY ON" i say

GONNER 89

Hey Gonners!! here

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/article/0,,3341-2355380,00.html

I really do not know what is wrong with this boy, but the whole thing makes for an interesting read (its nice to get a behind the scene look at events, especially the INFAMOUS PIZZAGATE AFFAIR!! i am still in laughing my head off at that one, wish i was there to see the actual look on Fergie's face )

I didn't want to get the book at first, buit on second thoughts, i guess it will be a good read, so why not. I JUST WISH COLE WILL JUST STOP TIMES FROM GIVING US PORTIONS AND JUST RELEASE THE DAMN BOOK AND GET IT OVER AND DONE WITH, CAUSE IT AIN'T DOING HIS REP ANY GOOD IN THE LONG RUN

As for the game tonight, we should be fine, we were fine against D Zagreb, we will be fine against Hamburg (although we should not take them for granted, see what happened to INTER with all their stars ) I also believe Titi not playing will also be good for the boys, as they will now settle down, and relax. Expect to see more shooting from outside the box, as we decide against the "perfect ball" senario, that our captain forces the boys to play. This is where Franky Ribery would have been great for Arsenal, he looks like a player that will just ignore Le Capitan and play instinctively, (Robin was like that, but i guess he has been indoctrinated or the TH14 infamous stare has given him the Hebby Jebbies!! )

All in all we should be fine 2-0 to the Arsenal tonight.

GONNER 89

LORDY !! nice one MATE!!

Hey not to ruffle any feathers, but Gonners do you remember this, i absolutely forgot that we did beat Man United Home and Away that season (with Titi actually scoring against them at Highbury)

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/photo_galleries/football/1975025.stm

has nothing to do with sundays match though, just a trip down memory lane for us Gonners, Pls Reds we are only going down memory lane oh!! before you start your own barrage of memory lane trips

GONNER 89

Na Wah Oh is it me or do people not understand SARCASM!!?? Oga Lordy sorry i was only Kidding, Why you all chose to read meanings to statements i will never know, I do remember asking you to please join the fun as its been a while that there has been much anticipation to a MAN UNITED/ARSENAL MATCH, We are all just trying to make this thread amusing as possibly, so people should just read btw the lines. "NO ONE IS INSULTING ANYONE HERE!!"

I hope you understand me now Oga Lordy, and if you don't, well apologises for what ever you took offence to, (it seems i have to tiptoe around some members as they get offended easily, even when there is no reason or malice intended!!). Just pulling your legs no offence meant

Besides you are a Gonner (i think so?) and i wouldn't be caught dead making any comments against my fellow gunners.

Oga Huccy, winning one battle does not mean you are now the Top Dog!! and i believe my fellow nairaland Gonners have held their own against you, (i have never seen or known Mr. Kit or Miss Mukina or Prisc or any other Gonner in the house to have run away from any Confrontation, even Miss Under 18 with her funny lingua franca, holds her own.)

So like i said, i give you that one, as i made a big (and by my own admission it was big ) blunder mixing up the two events, but by no means must that be taken as a fatal blow, far from it Oga, i have recovered and i am rearing to go!! like my team.

Today, i will leave all the innueandos and sarci jokes and do some real analysis on what either team will need to do to win, my bias being for the Gunner obviously!! hope everyone puts forward their own thoughts and analysis, at least we can all learn from each other and remember its all for fun.

LORDY HOPE MY APOLOGY IS ACCEPTED MATE!!
GONNER 89

Oga Bola Oni i didn't say or mean 2002 Oh i meant this

http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/eng_prem/1964495.stm

Sorry if the way i structured the sentence confused you

Mr. Huc i am still recovering from that shot, thank God it wasn't fatal

LORDY!! like NIKE "JUST DO IT " You can leave this thread, will power son!! will power!!

repeat after me " i will not let these people bore me any further, i will and can press the switch off button on my PC!!"

Lordy just get into this convo, when last did a MAN UNITED vs Arsenal game become more interesting and exciting, join the fun

GONNER 89

Hey Huc, my bad, what a big blunder , i need to go back and review my degree.

1 - Nil to you on that one.

Lordy if you are that bored with this thread, "JUST TURN OFF THE BLOODY PC " or just go to other threads. like the American Drug war mantra "JUST SAY NO!!"

hucarson:
@ Loyika,
I have read your posts and i was thinking u were one of the brightest gunners on this thread

Huc, now now you are making a grown man blush, But sorry when did the people up north of the British isles become far more Brighter then those of the south If you support the Mancs, then you are sharing in their lack of Knowlegde and commonsense , But you are right my post was appalling

Probably drinking the same brand of wine as Mr. Jackal

Lordy hope you have shut down the PC!? We are all just trying to let off steam!!

GONNER 89

hucarson:
@ Loyika,
It makes sense.
What UNEKS was trying to say is--------------------Even when Arsenal were unbeaten in the premiership season 2003/04 United still buried em in the FA cup competition.
United will always beat Arsenal in the Premiership whether u like it or not.
Live with that.

Ok Oga!! I guess it wasn't Rio Ferdinand that was crying at the end of that game, and PV10 wasn't the one lifting the cup, And oh my God Wasn't it the Man United supporters that were all sobbing after that game, oh well Huc guess you stoped watching before the pen shoot out, and feel Man united won that cup.

Always thrash Arsenal, please memory fails me, did we not win the league once at OT, with Wiltord scoring the only goal of the game, against Almighty Man United, and i guess we didn't thrash Man United during the Community Shield, the last time we met for that Curtain raisier!!

Mr. Huc, nice one mate

GONNER 89

HEY DUDE!! It seems you are over excited

UNEKS:
even when they were unbeaten, United still thrashed them

Does this statement make any sense , Go Figure

GONNER 89

Thats right good people, keep bumping this thread up till monday. Mr. Bola Oni sorry about that (got it right this time, i hope!?).

Anyway guys heres the Guardian Podcast for this week, just down load and enjoy (its free Oh!! before Naija guys start to get scared )

http://blogs.guardian.co.uk/sport/2006/09/11/football_weekly_1.html

enjoy guys!!!

GONNER 89

ABEG Mr Jackal and Mr Bolani (got the spelling right this time ) No mind me jare, na old age dey cause am, IMAGINE A WHOLE ME, PERSON DEY CALL AJEBO!? men kids of now adays, no respect!!

Well i must admit NAIRALAND IS MILD compared to other Footie Blogs and Forums, if Nuggard were on some other forums with their brutal sarcasm, what would he do, commit sucide. Anyway we are all having fun here, if someone chooses to take every comment seriously then i guess i won't be in Mr. Nuggard's good books for a long time.

What ever happened to that statement "A PINCH OF SALT!?", it wasn't his post that got me, it was his use of the word "CAPISCE!!" that really pulled my tits, and we all know where that can lead, just ask METTARRATZI!!

Mr. Jackal see ya on Sunday

GONNER 89

ADMIN I AM NOT SORRY I AM BREAKING THE RULES, AND I DO PROMISE TO DO IT AGAIN IF I HAVE TO SWAT LITTLE PESKY ANNOYING @#$%^

Now Mr. Nuggard i will give you the due respect that i feel you deserve cause i do not know you, and i am too old to even argue with someone, who i really don't know, and might never meet in my entire life (I AM REALLY WISHING THAT WE NEVER MEET ).

If you have been reading any of my posts, you will see i try hard to express what i feel on an issue, trying as much as possible to be objective as i can (which can be very difficult sometimes!!). Like i say my posts are usually long, since i chose not to post all the time, which means that when i do, i make sure i try to make all my points, as i might then decide to chill and watch the responses before i decide to post something else or reply (like you are making me do right now )

Now its just tooo bad that you do not understand what SARCASM IS!! and i can't help you with that (thats what you have educational institutions for), also please forgive me for being, what did you say again "AJEBO!!?" Gee Thanks!! and AMEN TO THAT. Not everyone can be a GHETTO SOILDER LIKE DADDY SHOWKEY AND AFRICAN CHINA!!

Listen Nuggard, like i said i believe i am way older than you, so i should know better than fight with my younger brother on an online forum, so if you do not like or agree with what i have to say, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO SKIP MY COMMENTS TO THE NEXT ONE!! believe me i won't be mad at you

If everyone realises that i am being half serious when i make my posts, and you don't, what can i do about that!? My degree is in Pol Sci not Psychology. (JESUS IF I WAS EXPECTING ANYONE TO MAKE COMMENTS CONCERNING MY COMMENTS IT WOULD HAVE BEEN MR. WOLF MAN HIMSELF THE JACKAL!1 ).

These forums are for fun, and i have never attacked anyone for what they have ever posted (well apart from my little stint with Mr. Kola, once upon a time, way back when!?) Besides until i saw my name on your post, i never knew you existed, and i doubt i have ever replied to anything you have said ) but if i annoy you, my sincere apologies

ADMIN I AM THROUGH!!

@ Jackal where was i? yeah "BRING SUNDAY THE F@#K ON!!) (NUGGARD HERE IS THE PART WHERE YOU GO TEMPORALY BLIND )

GONNER 89

Like you beat the SPUDS black and blue!!??

Please people keep bumping this thread up till monday, PLEASE i really want to see this beating Black and blue, Man!! i don't usually like coming to the office on Sundays, but i will make a f@#king exception this sunday. so i can Log on to Nairaland before and after the game. No worries if we lose, i will be the first one to pull of my hat to you guys (scout's honour!!) BUT IF WE F@#KING WIN, YOU ALL WILL HATE ME ON THIS FORUM

BRING SUNDAY THE F@#K ON!!

GONNER 89

WHEN ALL AROUND CHAOS SEEMS TO BE THE NORM, FINALLY SOME SANITY CALMS THE STORM!!!

All this talk of destroying some one, only does one thing, bore the Pants off me.  

I was going to give my views, but i am so bored of reading all this noise that i will let the thread play it self out, then post something when all the posturing and false starts are coming to an end. Cause thats what is happening here. Everyone is getting all worked up, and for nothing.

Just one comment, In as much as United Surpporters are walking around holding their crouch like a Rap star who has just been told his album just went Platinum, we will see how far that Rapper can hold his own on SUNDAY. Footie is not a game of words, buty is played on the pitch, and no one should please bore us with any HISTORY LESSON.

Win or lose on sunday, it will be just one game Won or Lost, and 3 points dropped!!

If we WIN does that mean Man U are finished for the season, NO, if we lose does that do any harm to us, other than making it even more unbearable to listen to the constant S@#T coming out of the Manc camp, I WOULD THINK NOT.

I will give my analysis (Objective!) of this game later, (cause work is restricting me from settling down to give this a good thrashing out!! ) Explaining Why MAN UNITED WILL EITHER GET A BLOODY NOSE OR GET A RESPECTABLE DRAW. this is not pride, as i really have nothing to be proud about, but Arsenal really have nothing to lose on SUNDAY as we are expected to lose, so if we do, SSDD. but HOT DAMN!! bring sunday the f@#k on!!

THAT WILL BE MY MANTRA TILL THE GAME on sunday.

For now, like Arnie, "I WILL BE BACK!! "

gonner 89

jackal YOU ARE GETTING DRUNK OFF CHEAP WINE!? And its so Sad, but what would you expect from a bloody Mancurian.

Like I SAID "BRING SUNDAY THE F@#K ON!!"

Cause if you give the same earth shattering performannce as you gave on saturday against the SPUDS, once again i say "BRING SUNDAY THE F@#K ON".

fellow GONNERS forget what i said earlier. GIVE THEM HELL, FIRE FOR FIRE, NO RETREAT NO SURRENDER. WE ARE THE F@#KING ARSENAL!!

WILL give my take properly on the other thread.

GONNER 89

Jackal:
Man Utd is on the roll

I can't believe Arsenal is our next opponent.
Guess what? Rooney and Scholes will feature in that match as they have completed their respective bans.
Arsenal will lose again next weekend.

Jackal:
Do u think Arsenal will cope with United's tenacious and relentless attack?
Reading FC or Sheffield United might snatch 3 points from United but Arsenal won't because of the old rivalry.

Jackal:
@ Kitaun,
The fear of United is the beginning of wisdom.
Don't forget United will have Wazza(Rooney) and Scholesy available against Arsenal.
The last team Arsenal want to meet now is Man Utd because it will be a basket of goals.

Ferguson has picked up Barclays manager of the month and Giggsy clinched Barclays player of the month.
Solskjaer and Smith might also be given a run come next weekend.
The Gunners are in trouble.

As Isaid i will give the bulk of my opinions on this in the Reds vs Gonners thread, all i will say to Jackal, BRING SUNDAY THE F@#K ON!! And please if we do not see the basket of goals, and the game ends up as a draw, feel free to come back to this thread and eat humble pie, you promised 2 goals against the SPUDS you got away with 1, (What matters at the end of the day is points!)

Now you make all this bloody noise about ARSENAL LOSING BY A BASKETFUL OF GOALS AT OT, BRING IT ON!! People say ARSENAL are arrogant, to an extent yes, even others say CHELSEA top the scale (to an extent yes), BUT NOW I REMEMBER WHY WE ALL DETEST MANCHESTER UNITED, THEY DEFINE THE WORD ARROGANCE

AND AS MUCH AS I WOULD HATE CHELSEA WINNING THE LEAGUE, I HOPE THEY DO AND ESSIEN FUCKING BREAKS RONNEYS LEGS.
MAN UNITED THINK THEY ARE F@#KING gods CAUSE THEY HAVE WON 4 GAMES AND SIT PRETTY ON THE TOP. Well i am aware that the Gunners might not have enough to compete, same can be said of The Pool, but from now on, i hope Chelsea, stuff the s@#T back down [b]Fergies[/b]mouth, and give Sir Alex 1 more year to add to the 3 already of not wininng the Prem Title.

NOW LET ME SWITCH OVER TO THE MAIN MENU TODAY!!

GONNER 89

Simple statement here, as i will give my main rant on the Reds vs Gonners thread that some thought was a brilliant excuse for a laugh.

Now my fellow Gonners, let everyone just bear the laughters and taunts, please even encourage others to have a good laugh, cause to be honest none of us can recognise the team that has played those three matches. We deserve to be where we are on the league table, no excuses (if we can't kill off teams like Villa, Boro and Man City, where we have 85% of the possesion, then we are not ready for this season!?) as Sean Connery said " you do not come for a gun fight with a knife (blunted for that matter!!). yes it hurts, and its good that it hurts, and that the team and coach recognise it hurts, but guess what, it is better we have the worst start ever under Wenger and he solves the problem and we get some consistency as the games go on, than win your early games and lose the plot in the middle of the season.

I want my team to be ashamed of where we are on the table, that is the only way they will push themselves up, and grow some F@#King BALLS!!, we are rock bottom Gonners, but guess what: THE ONLY WAY IS UP!! And i will be damned if my team doesn't give those suckers at the top a run for their money. WE ARE THE ARSENAL, F@#K WHAT ELSE ANYONE THINKS.

Everyone else please do enjoy your selves and have a laugh, it is your right to do so (talk about kicking a man when he is down!? ) We deserve to be laughed at, but just remember this, if your respective teams hit a bad patch (as they surely will do), please be honourable enough to sit back and enjoy the tauntings as well, fair is fair!!

Its your time today, hope you are gracious when it becomes our time to hit form.

GONNER 89

Goodday everyone, decided to be far more patient and read everyone's opinions on issues before i make my points.

Now starting with this thread,

Jackal sorry correction, only one club is having problems with this at the moment and it ain't Arsenal, if you see the statements from Gallas on the official website, it is obvious Le Prof has told him to keep quiet and let his football on the pitch do the talking for him. Which i feel is spot on, as we have bigger fishes to fry than a stupid spat with chelsea that does more harm to football than good (What next for God's sake, players lining up to draw straws on whether they believe Gallas is capable of that or not), cause if taken any further could lead to investiugations being carried out, which i don't believe Chelsea want. (Its just a case of speaking before you think, which every club can be guilty of sometimes )

Secondly i somewhat agree with your analysis of the Siege Mentality of Chelsea, but i think that Maureen just thrives on controvesy, he is from the school of "NO NEWS EQUALS BAD NEWS!?" so he just has to make sure Chelsea grab the headlines even when they do not need to, i.e. his continous quotes, comments and school boy behaviour all lead to someone that loves to be in the spot light like an Oscar winner. (give him his due, he is one heck of a coach and pushes Fergie in the Task Master stakes) Anyway Age and more experience will calm him down, or else we will have another Arragoness on our hands, and believe me Maureen will be far more brutal and comical, (the "Slave" comment during the Makalele issue is a classic example).

Generally this whole thing will die a natural death (quicker if Ashley Cole just decides to shut the F@#K UP!? ) until both clubs play their home and away matches, then the media will do what they normally do, hype it up to build tension btw the two clubs ahead of the games (as if both clubs needed a reason to go at each others throat on the footie pitch )

I am done here, now over to the next thread on the apparent delusion that Man United will destroy Arsenal on sunday (if you destroy us like you apparently destroyed The Spuds!! I AM QUAKING IN MY BOOTS!!)

Well the replay is in november 2007, by that time Italy might be out of range for qualification for the Euros, so Mr Hustler don't hold your breathe, cause the Azzuris still have a long way to go, they are 5 points behind France and Scotland, and the last time i checked only the Top 2 qualify. But like i said LONG WAY TO GO.

[/quote][quote author=bolaoni link=topic=21467.msg594020#msg594020 date=1157552805]Now that the "Prof." has bought Gallas, what happens to Eboue?

Another young player development?

I remember 1996 when Beckham was just coming out, Fergie had to sacrifice Poborsky in order to allow Becksy to grow.

Poborsky was a hot property @ Euro 96 but Sir Fergie wouldn't allow Pob's profile to stunt the growth of Beckham.

That is the work of a committed DEVELOPER!

WHAT HAPPENS TO SENDEROS , BALONI, NOT EBOUE, SENDEROS!! EBOUE IS RIGHTBACK, GALLAS IS CENTERBACK, even if he is versitile to play anywhere in Defence!!

GONNER 89

With all the negative press, WILL HE ACTUALLY SURVIVE IN THE EPL FOR MUCH LONGER!!

http://blogs.guardian.co.uk/sport/2006/09/06/when_mourinho_slings_mud_footb.html

He is really walking a very thin line and might just get so frustrated at the lack of respect he feels he is not getting (and doesn't deserve i might add!!) from the British Press (remember he even stated that he almost walked away from the club at the end of the season (even if Peter Kenyon, tried to cover up, saying it was never the case ).

The final straw is when he starts directing comments to the press, Believe me when i say this MAUREEN'S CAREER WILL BE TORN TO SHREDS AND HE WILL HAVE TO LEAVE BECAUSE OF SAFETY FOR HIS FAMILY, CAUSE AS WE ALL KNOW, THE PRESS IN BRITAIN IS THE MOST VICIOUS PRESS THERE IS IN THE WORLD, (so many careers lie in ruin due to their rantings) so MAUREEN should be very careful the path he and CHELSKI are taking, cause i bet Roman has some skeleton's in the cupboard he doesn't want for public consumption!?

GONNER 89

Jackal and co!

Time will tell indeed. As much as we all have opinions and predictions based on current form, history, what ever you all chose to site as reasons Arsenal will fall, Football is played on the pitch and it's there we will see if all the predictions and bluffing will come to pass

What i can say is, with all the sub plots manifesting itself in the EPL, this season is promising to be quite different and interesting. And i strongly believe it will be very close, going down to the wire (believe me every team is going to experience both good and bad run of form somewhere along the line, so expect some tense moments!!)

So hold on to your seats everyone. Jackal just focus on the SPUDS on sunday and leave the Gonner's bridge till you come to it (cause despite what you think, Spurs do have the Arsenal to beat United, HISTORY OR NOT!!)
