Tenhutt!!!! 10 out of 12, we aint really doing bad so far. Considering some people dat we know are just dropping more points than seasoned debaters grin!!! Anways dem no be my concern.

Abou Diaby, ya'll just gotta give it to him. Awesome performance. Plus he added a goal for full measure. Song always on Song. I felt real bad when Theo's chip didnt go in. More importantly cos there is no better morale booster for an attacker than to score a goal when you are struggling for form. Heads up son!!!

Dudu is picking up. Defenders beware!!

And is the wobbly-headed one suddenly the new awesome free kick taker?!! Hmm we shall see.

Last word for the referee, really what the eff was dat. How can that be a penalty, while they were busy playing volleyball at the other end?!

One game at a time people, on to the next one. Tenhutt!!!!

ITS THE RED ND WHITE ARMY!!!!

@Debo nicely put. 7 out of 9. One game at a time and counting.

Well i wholeheartedly diasgree about Theo last nite. He had a stinking stinker. And as the game progressed he was seeking brilliance to redeem himself, when he hadnt done the simple things earlier. When a player is getting back to form, it is very important he feeds off the fitness of other players. He kept trying to reddem himself with runs and twist. It was all going awry for him, and then culminated in that cross-shot, when he cld easily have controlled and aimed better.

I still have faith in the kid. Infact lots of it. He shold just concentrate on doing the simple thigns right. Take it one game at a time and get his mind off South Africa, striker. . . . other what nots.

Cesc out but we still held ours. They crowded the midfield then crowded their third. But you ahve to admit they wee using thier breaks well. So we had to be also watching when going forward. And Song oh song, he was showing his play maker traits yesterday. That boy is really egtting well rounded.

Almunia's confidence is shot to bits. And i too noticed Sagna giving him a 'were n se e ni, o le soro ni?'. But dere's something u gotta to admit, while Jensen was makin routine saves, Bunley fans were always screamin Beeeeeasst!! When Almunia makes routine saves our fans, at least my peeps wit me at the time were cussin his a$$ out. We could do better wit support for our players going through hard times.

Anybody believing what he reads on BBC rumors page is on a very looooooooooooooooooooooooong tin!!!!

@A-40 i understand the criticisms of Diaby too. As he develops he will make the right choices. I am not totally against his dribbles tho. When it messes up i slate him too. But u av 2 agree leaving 1 or 2 players in ur wake when it is successful means less bodies to go around when we get into their final third or their box as the case maybe. Something akin to Theo breezing past midfielders and defenders. Here's hoping Diaby comes up quicker and makes d right decisions.

@Debo, that was said 'tongue-in-cheek'. Dennilson knows his role in the Arsenal, and me thinks he does it well enough.

No one really missed Diby? Well maybe here, cos I did see a lotta bloggers looking for 'size' and mentioning Diaby. Trully he could do better to release the ball earlier but usually that results in loss of possession.

Until he develops his one touch passes to the Mozart level, or develops better telepathy with others around him to the Cesc level, his movements away from players to buy a few seconds is what he's left with.

Dont let Debo hear you about Dennilson oh, he thinks Neves gift-wrapped 3 points for the Scousers before tiny big brother Assassin go wrestle am back!! grin
Music/RadioRe: Album Review-tradition-9ice by slimshay(m): 1:12pm On Dec 16, 2009
Slanted review in my opinion. Especially putting 'No be Mistake' on tracks to be skipped?!! You lost some cred right there.

Spot on on Charging Charger though. What was that about Adigun?!!
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only. by slimshay(m): 12:43pm On Dec 16, 2009
@A-40 for the postion Diaby plays it is required he holds on to the ball for a few seconds extra to allow those ahead to get into position.

Its kinda funny people slate Diaby for holding on to the ball and in the same team slate Dennilson for making too many sideways and backward passes when too quick a pass forward means some opposition player is in a better position to make an interception. . . . . *scratches biabia, pondering*

@big rod, well lets not make it tribal. Though id disagree they killed of Tuface. He's still much around. Maybe not as before.

On this one, they are building up slowly, challenging his songs, challenging his person, challenging his character. And sadly naija populace are negative gossip fiends!

Well let them try. Like 9ice himself said in one of his new tracks

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only. by slimshay(m): 5:45pm On Dec 15, 2009
Fletcher fouls, not tackles, fouls. Which quite rightly means he stops the oppsition form playing their game, but rarely wins possession for his team. When he does it upfield, yes he has broken up play. Further into his own third. Well. . . . Chelsea 1, Man U 0.

Arsenal play is dependent on possession on the ball, I sincerely dont know how you will big up a DM who doesnt win it for his team.

He does it perssitently without getting booked. And that is what Arsene complained about. Persistent fouling gets you booked. But Fletcher didnt.

This is my last post, cant reply anymore, i'll be readin though. knock urselves out.

What diving debate HNIC? iTs onlr relevant when foreign players do it. It is a footnote when honest to God English players do it?!! Free the issue, it is what it is. Dudu got crucified, Ngog got crucified, nails don finish when e reach Rooney turn?!!!
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only. by slimshay(m): 5:28pm On Dec 15, 2009
Very well, we should speak our minds freely.

But Dennilson almost cost us 3 points?, almost what. Dennilson was the only player that could hold his head up going into the tunnel at 45 minutes. Dennnilson made the highest number of interceptions and tackles in that match, very well could be said he was the main reason why Liverpool did not have a single shot on goal in the second 45.

Yes we should speak our minds freely, but really, this freely?!! Dennilson almost costs us 3 points?  shocked How about he was why we got 3 points.

I give up on your fletcher argument. If a player who does almost nothing against us but persistent fouling is a better player to you then. . . . .
Music/RadioRe: 9ice Fought @star Mega Jamz Abuja by slimshay(m): 5:17pm On Dec 15, 2009
and gradually the same type of campaign of calumny instigated against TuFace is being built up against 9ice. . . .*shakes head*
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only. by slimshay(m): 5:14pm On Dec 15, 2009
Debosky wtf is wrong with you? Im not saying this cos im an arsenal fan and sharon can kiss my ARSEnal, how the f**k is Fletcher a great player?!!!  This guy's stats are not even up to Diaby's. Dennilson's interception shits on his. He fouls people all over the field and clumsily cost them 3 points against Chelsea. Before my post is even published sharon will come with his jingo about how he has won more trophies than Wenger and bossed fabregas around, like if we all didnt see the last game. Thats is how untruths when unchallenged end up being accepted facts. Fletcher is a great player?, wtf?!!!! shocked angry

I've always been abt the passion, on facebook forum that was like my only mantra. And im more mad at our fans than the players sometimes. How does one leave the stadium before a match ends. Jeez?!!! Our away contigent drowned out the liverpool fans. At anfield!!!!! What the hell is going on in our own home.

The last few comments on here makes this place look like le grove. I apologise if get on the wrong side of ya'll with that, but right now i'm too pissed off!!!

If i were say Moyes shoppin for DM in Everton now, I will not pick Song just cos he's grown with my side and one of us, i will pick him because right now he's better than Melo.

The fact that we look better this season is what makes me say we are on track. Im not losing faith. Like i say, we shld take it one game at a time, so im not going to go in conjectures and permutations. So far so good, one game at a time we have gotten 6 in 6 points. That means we are on track.

Well the success thing shld also be put into perspective. Believe me i dont want to go into this argument sha. Cos it creates a conflict within me too. e.g. I want trophies. I want it bad. Liverpool wants trophies, they want it bad. Right now Arsenal is smiling somewhat, finanaces look good, morale okay, well Liverpool is. . . . anyone smiling in Liverpool now must be high!!!

Am i then content with where we are, no, but are we then unsuccessful, no!!! We have been successsful in making write-offs into sought-afters, now all is left is for our sought-afters to get on field success, then its lala-land for me.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only. by slimshay(m): 1:12pm On Dec 15, 2009
Common Debo, including plus £30 mill for Sheva? Im talking costs here. So that expense was worth it too?! So they can brag about wining something we were almost taking for granted?! Do you really believ that amount doled out for Sheva won them the trophies they got in his time. He scored 3 league goals in one season. 3!!!! Our 10mill defender has already gotten as much and its not yet Christmas.

Getting into finances as against trophies will seem to put you into 2 camps (medialistically speakin), spend and win, or dont spend and struggle. But that really is not true. Case in point Melo vs Song. One wins Golden Dustbin, the other leaves us droolin. One was meant to cost us about £10mill or more, the other at the time cost us nothin cos we owned him already. Will you pick Melo over Song today.

It was one of those interesting fact to find out that Berba who was sat on the bench was worth as much as the Barca front line. Well barca had to go 2 years to achieve that too. We have had to go longer yes but who says we are not really on track.

Im not sayin im not pained at the length of the draught, but trying to keep some perspective here. This is the path we have chosen, we have seen the harder times I am not about to start getting all critical when we are seeing better times.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Arsenal Fan Thread: For Gunners Only. by slimshay(m): 12:46pm On Dec 15, 2009
Well Debosky, Song deserves the accolades he's getting now, empty cabinet notwithstanding. Im not unto the comparism things just yet, but those comparism are fair pointers to what you can do with someone you truly believe in.

You only need to see what Carlo Ganganonsense said on Goal.com the day Juventus signed Melo to understand this misplaced concept about ensuring quality by doling it out.

Song is right now above his peers in his department. And to think he was being roundly criticised in one and every forum just lasts eason. To the extent of being booed on the field of play by his own fans?!! Like Dre said, some came up, some just didnt. He's earned his stripes the hard way, by God's grace he's on course to earn his medals. And that is what champions are made of!!!

Oh dear fellow soldiers on this quest to the prized precious metals, Ha, what a weekend, whaaaaat a weekend!!!!! cool grin

This is what the good Lord Wenger told them at half time:

'You are not fit to wear the Arsenal shirt if you play like this', what a statement, oh what motivation, what a performance after the half. cool grin

Now hear this, Liverpool had no shot on goal after the second half. Again, no single, even if na back pass from our player, them no get one single shot on goal.

Oh you awesome kids, come give daddy a huuuuug!!!!! grin grin grin

Tenhutttt!!!! Every man to the armoury, there's some prized 3 points to be annexed by conquest at Turf Moor.

Tenhutt!!! Well the Young Guns put in the shift yesterday, ratings i have read are so far in order. I will most agree with the fact that Walcott should cut out any fanciful stuff and be direct with his game. Period!!! Its not wrong decisions that kill his game, it is indecision. Like his legs are faster than his footballing brain!!! Kids got talent, kids got ambition, kids got a great manager, kids got a great mentor. what else does the kid need?!!!

Song is a beast!!! essien who?! African footballer of the year. Ok, young player of the year. If he doesnt get it, may they roast in CAF!!!

well good name though we lost.

On to the next one. The Scousers in their own home. Not a bad ground for us in recent times. Only this time i will also like 3 points to go with.

Cannons. . . check, cannon Balls. . . .check, assassin on line. . . .check, futuristic man send to teach english how to defend aka verminator. . . .check, fabolous. . , check.

@ Gooner how far, i did the saturday preview, left u a message to send u email addy i cld sent it to but did not get it. I tried to post it up, but no publish button was avalaible so i submitted for review hoping you'd see and post up. Didnt get to see it up, so im guessin we missed that one eh?!

Sorry cant do wednesday, im a bit swamped wiv end of year work and stuff, plus ill be away for a couple of days from tommorrow. So please you may need to do liverpool too. Although God knows i woulda loved to do that one too.

Bout the website, will need some thinkin i guess, so i'll get back wiv my suggestion. Pester this guys here especially the usual suspects. Debo, Ed, HNIC, Kay, Muki, V3, Dudu, Dr Kit abeg if i no say ur name no vex o. They are all good thinkers and analytical minds, but av to spend half the time, fending off rodents form this thread.
