that's bcuz walcott is a better sub than a starter. bendt saves our ass lots of times.

and probably the reason why almunia isn't in the poll is cuz there will be no challenger for him.

wah... ur in Germany? get some Equilibrium albums for me dude haha

oh n i watched the Cesc Fabregas show too, i think in the episode when he played PES 2008 with one of the fans.

bale is a beast. i'm a fan of gareth bale. but i hate spurs's guts.

if arsenal doesnt win then it's all for a waste. i prefer chelsea winning the league than man utd.

initial response. WHAT THE EFF IS WRONG WITH ARSENAL!!! losing a game in the final 10 minutes, that is not the way to win any competition. we've built a reputation for scoring in the last 10 minutes, but today it was different. we lost it.
and with this the title race is effectively a 2-horse race. eventhough admittedly it WAS a 2-horse realistic race even before arsenal went into the wigan game, but at least some fight has to be put in.

later positive response. at least now (I FREAKIN HOPE) wenger sees what's the problem in the squad. at least i hope this loss gets it in his head that he needs to sign some players or the fans will start climbing on his back. the only thing that needs to be done now is sign. fkin sign a keeper already, manager.

haha that's a pretty cagey post match interview from wenger. you can tell he's furious.

furious because his players aren't doing the right thing, not doing the thing he asks them to. wenger, some players can't do the things you expect them to do. you want the defense to be tight, well they are noot playing infront of a good goalie. please fix this one ASAP. fck chamakh, get a keeper first. yeah it might be hard to get one, but we're fkin arsenal. we got to the quarter finals of ECC and if we had a full squad we might've done something against that beast messi.

that grading theory is idealistic, but not realistic. if the players are all robots or have infinite stamina, i would agree with it. using carling cup as a platform to rest key players and test out potential players is a good plan. i don't actually agree to fielding an entire team of second string youngsters since it's a proper cup not a coca-cola tournament.

bojan for shavin.... i'm not sure i'm totally against that move. arshavin's heart isnt here anymore, while bojan is a hot prospect. tho i'm not sure how bojan would feature in the team with chamakh coming in.

i dont think this move is likely, anyway. haha

hahaha he looks commanding in that PS pic. looking forward to him in an arsenal shirt, altho to be 100% honest i dont expect much from him except to be fit for the entire season and staying away from injuries.

oh so is he officially an arsenal player now?

maybe m. petric...? that guy was a beast in my Master League on PES. has the needed height and strength to 'brutal'-ize the strikeforce. i'm surprised he's almost as good in real life, thought he was mediocre.

pergh... that goalscoring rate reminds me of jan klaas huntelaar.

but still... waiting for the GK position. i dont want to see almunia between the posts next season.

i for one dont mind the defeat. i'd rather all the weaknesses of the team be revealed in these last few games in order to get it inside wenger's head that this team needs reinforcements. the GK position is a freakin MUST. if i see mengelamunia or *abianski in between the posts next season... well i guess it's better if i dont say what i'll do.

arshavin is blabbering about leaving to barca and is trying to persuade clichy. this is according to goal.com, but there's quotation from the man himself. still, it's from goal.com so i'll leave it to your own judgement. i think it's time he's axed from the team. just dont turn into another hleb, shav.

we'll have to get someone else to replace shav's creativity and genius but i can't think of anyone yet... there's pato and aguerro and gourcuff but all are uinrealistic.

i thought eden is a finisher?

me too, NO selling fabregas. unless he actually comes out and state that his time as the red and white captain is over. we still need him around for another 2 season. and wenger sounds like he's gonna start exerting some financial muscle that the club has. i dont wanna see that money be used to replace cesc. getting a new worldclass keeper and some up to task central defence and probably some more proved attackers in the squad would be useless if the core of arsenal is no longer here. it would probably take another painstaking few years until the new crop gels together.
