The team could really do with a couple of players seemingly immune to getting red cards, to be fair.

relegation:

wigan: 1.54
wolves: 1.79
west ham: 2.12
blackpool: 2.32
west brom: 2.64
birm: 3.6

very interesting battle
have a big amount of money on blackpool(made the bets quite some time ago tho) so have to root against them, im pretty confident that i win the bet

wolves still free money

MOTD.

"made in Stoke wrote all over the goals."

lol

Yes, I said "men" not "players".

By this I mean grown adult males with some life experience who are mentally tough and have the ability to take responsibility for their mistakes and perform well in difficult situations when the chips are down. The current Arsenal side have discipline issues nicely demonstrated by Diaby's idiocy earlier, and all the toughness of a wet paper bag. A team, manager and set of fans that spend far too much time whining about refereeing injustice and fapping over their style of play.

It's such a shame too, because the last thing I want to see is this Man Utd team winning the league, but until Wenger addresses the obvious void in his squad they're never going to get over the line.

Of course, you'll muster some manner of dismissive response to this, but I submit that your opinion can be safely disregarded when you perceived the first penalty to be incorrectly awarded - and Diaby's petulance something to be celebrated.

Have a good weekend. /rant

Carew will prove to be a great signing for them. I think Tuncay is a good player, but Carew is a much better fit for the way they play.

I think not having Song was a big blow Lloyd. He's a lot more composed, mature, and strong than you realize. I'd personally take him over Barton too, but I like Barton as a player. He's still a nutcase, but he's got some skills. Diaby is a trainwreck of a player though, no doubt about that.

I don't know what you mean by Nolan though.

lol WTF booking Cahill for diving, obv pen imo

Blackpool cannot defend, and for that reason I think your money is safe. When I see that list of teams, it makes me realise how many toilet sides there are in the bestest league in teh world evar evar evar.

Jesus Christ, watching MOTD and Clattenburg truly is the nut low of referees.

Mike Dean though

I'm not suggesting he would be good enough to get into the current Arsenal side. I'm just highlighting him because he is a player who as truly maxed his ability throughout his career, always been a leader and example to team-mates (club captain for most of his career in two different places), and a dude you rarely see moaning or feeling sorry for himself.

My suggestion is that Arsenal could do with some characters like them in their squad. Arsenal obviously have bundles and bundles of technical and athletic ability.

When I watched Blackpool v United, I knew after the game that Blackpool are doomed and its because of Holloway.

The man had a golden chance to nick AT LEAST one point from that game, three if they played good enough. But he made zero adjustments and continued to keep a high line against one of the best counter attacking teams (maybe the best?) in the PL.

Obviously they lost the game and I felt like it was almost entirely his fault. He seems like a stubborn guy who wants to play one way (sound familiar?), yet his team is pretty terrible overall.


ah, gotcha. Definitely some truth to this. Its been touched on before itt this season as well. Still a young side though, but they do lack maturity. Seth told me he thinks most of the players are front runners, which could be true as well.

wait, werent you talking about joey barton?
LOL

jep a real grown up without discipline issues

love citeh's poznan celebration

As a Wolves fan I was amazed today. Not at the result, but at hearing Karl Henry is in the England squad. Shouldnt even be in the Wolves team imo, mans got the first touch of a rapist and doesnt know how to pass the ball forwards. That said, CMON ME BABBIES!!!! (Now to get spanked at the Arsenal and the Tesco carrier bags)

Hi

LOL Arsenal

Bye

Yeah, Karl Henry and Ryan Shawcross in the same side. English fans must be drolling at the thought of the liquid football that will surely be on display. At least Wilshere is there to carry the team.

holy **** walker never did that for us

Has Wilshere actually been good tho?

I see the talent and I haven't seen too many entire Arsenal games but he hasn't really impressed me so far

Better than Rosicky tho, god he is horrible this season

Ryan Shawcross too? Lol Fabio must be thinking "F*** it we're crap anyway, lets just kill the other team"

Wilshere has been very good from about the 3rd game on this season. Our midfield in particular has great chemistry and teamwork when its Cesc, Wilshere, and Song. His game is fairly dynamic and he has the ability to do the short quick passes and the long balls. Pretty physical and feisty for a 19 year old of his size as well.

wilshere is having a very good season yes

with ramsey coming back soon, lansbury making a name for himself I expect us to ship out rosicky in the summer, he is a liabilty these days and my patience with him is coming to an end tbh
