Look man, you're beating a dead horse here. If a defender does all fancy shit and loses the ball, he gets flame grilled. Look when clichy made mistakes trying to be fancy defender back then, he was flame grilled.
Defenders are defenders for a reason. I don't get why u keep bashing on Sagna when we had a passenger right winger for 70 minutes of the game.
If u watched so much football as you say, back when we were a dominant force, Lee Dixon didn't do any fancy shit. Lauren Bisan didn't do any fancy shit, and we licked other teams all over the pitch.
Sagna has been brilliant all season long, and over ONE situation in ONE totally lopsided game, ur grilling him? Dude get a grip. Move on. He did well tonight.
*
One thing is I never flame grilled Clichy. 2nd is Lee Dixon & Lauren Bisan time, we prolly don't have any Astro yet and you trying to conclude that "they're good defenders which don't do fancy stuff"...Thirdly, Sagna of course has been brilliant but is the same old predictable moves 2/3 yards from penalty box and pass the ball to a 2-man tightly marked striker. When he did that, you prolly would have notice the passenger right winger already cover for him at the back. At least, if he bring the ball abit forward inside the penalty box, there's a threat there...If he did passing like that, our midfield would have been empty by then and switch to defense. That's my observation on our failure in attacks.

please don't talk bollocks. We don't have astro yet? I've had astro since 1996 watching the Atlanta Olympics. And Lauren time no Astro? WHere have u been hiding? Under a rock? I don't conclude anything I didn't watch mind you.

And yes Rosicky may have been behind him. But did you see him intercept any play from the mid? Or put in any decent defensive effort? Come on man. It's been one game. And out of a sudden Sagna's predictable. Give it a rest. Sagna's best improvement this season has been on his crossing. U can't expect one player especially a right back to have changed the situation this morning.We were chasing the game from the first whistle and the defender was the problem u indentified as an ATTACKING problem. geez

The game's done and dusted, so have I with this discussion. Few of us including Barca fans having been trying to make a point to u from the previous thread till now. They've given up. Now's my turn. U win. Sagna's rubbish and predictable. And from ur comments the last thread, he should now play smart like the spaniards, take people one on one and do a little "diving" to win us many penalties.

Ok I get it.
*
Wow, great now name-calling people like you have been following Arsenal since your childbirth or something...How do I care if you got Astro or some Satellite dish all the way from England for you. Even if you got watch, doesn't mean that the Lee or Bisan guy have to be on your non-fancy standard. This 2011 not 1996.

If u get it, that Sagna is predictable and doesn't win us anything, just shut up and stop calling people names.

Sorry I'd have to disagree here. Sagna was perhaps one of our better performers this morning and has been excellent defensively so far this season. Being a good crossing fullback is always a plus but bear in mind Sagna is a defender and his priority should remain at defending well. That is what he is paid to do. If he can attack and cross well then that is a bonus.
*
From then until now, I never criticised anything about his defending, it was all started from that 2/3 yards from penalty box.

When did i call u names? Great, a retort with personal attacks. I've supported Arsenal since 1994 when I was in the UK and came back. I didn't say i supported them from childbirth as u assumed did I?  Simply because I've supported the team before you, I'm guilty as well. Nice way of calling our great players like Lauren and Lee dixon as simply guys who didn't mean sh1t. Come on man, take a chill pill. We're the same club's supporters and your best retort is this. All me, Prelude23 and the rest of the guys are saying is stop bashing players without a valid reason and instead supporting a defender to neglect his duties and worse still, encourage diving.
Your argument simply doesn't hold water that all defenders need to be graduates of the art of dribbling before leaving the academy. Comprende?

End of the day, both you and me support the same club? No?
*
What personal attacks? Then did i call u any bollock? Yeah, they are great so? Does that means I have to mention their names every now and then and trying to win argument by that? And u switch to argument about dribbling and Im pretty sure that's a very basic fundamental for every footballer. Im bashing the way he's not creative enough during that 2/3 yards just abit more to enter penalty box (even if it's not dive or spanish theatre, there is a threat there), and then u started to talk history lesson...What the hell was that? And then, calling ppl bollock or fools...

Prelude23 made a very good point when he asked u to name other wingbacks who were really good like Alves in offense. I dind't see your reply to it, but let's be honest, players of that quality are few and far between.

Please keep it a healthy discussion. I'm the 2nd person who has been told to shut up by you simply because you can't participate in a decent healthy discussion and fancy making assumptions that neither we know football or simply are flamed by stating our facts as a sign of arrogance towards u.
Like I said, you and I are both supporters of the same club. I don't need the thread to turn into a shitstorm because a few of us retorts your claims.

Come on you gunners!
*
I already made my observation and it has always been a healthy discussion all this time. And I don't believe players of Alves quality is rare, is just that other defenders couldn't afford to risk it/open their minds on other options available.

On having a lot to play for this season…
How big is the blow? We don’t know. That depends on our response on Saturday at Manchester United. ~ AW

Btw: I am no Barca fan.. I just cant stand the sight of a club I once root for going 6 and potentially 7 years of no trophies. Arsenal and their fans deserve better..  cry.gif

What can we ask for? We're in competition for 4 trophies, of course winning all of them would be nice but it will never happen with this kinda performance. Anyway, we still have bigger task to stop MU getting their 19th for all I care.

Wow what the heck? So still damn stubborn eh?

What rubbish is this? Other defenders cant risk it and open their mind.
If not, they'll become another Alves.

How Sagna can become Alves if he got no pace?
Sagna may lose Alves in attacking but in defending? I'm not quite sure.

Thing is, Alves is playing for Barca. Put him in a mediocre team and you'll see his attacking style get him expose.
That is why Sagna dont attack as it will expose him.
Dribbling pass defender is not as easy as talk.
RvP did not do it. So did Nasri. Fab too. So why Sagna?!?

Understand?
*
I don't understand and I don't need to understand your standard...If this is what we expected from Sagna we sure won't get anything. There is no such rubbish as certain player can do this and others cannot (with the exception of Messi, I guess). And one more thing is I never expected Sagna to attack all the time, because there is only a certain time where he had those kinda chances and he should make an impact out of it...And he's not. So dya get it?? Pls read back a few of my observation...don't just go one dimensional.

Really? The amuse me why Malaysia cant play like Brazil.

And on the second bolded sentence, yes, he's trying to do something when he had the ball on wings.
He's trying to cross and find the striker in the penalty box.
I have to say he's kinda good in crossing.

How you expect him to dribble when dribbling is not his strenght?  shakehead.gif
*
Yeah, it also amuses me too why Malaysia can't play like Brazil. It's a pessimistic thinking if you ask me.

Yes, on the bolded part he always did that. Almost 90% of the time, that's why I said its predictable.

If im not expect him to dribble at least he should contribute that 10% on it so he will become un-predictable.

he can open his big mouth talking how good he is but failed like a wussy when it matters.

AW won't simply put him there for no purpose. He's there to accept Sagna high crosses. But still, the time is not enough.

UCL refereeing, they put in bullshit refs like these and they want respect.

i think there should be a campaign where refs should earn respect.

what a ridiculously soft yellow that leads to a red.

Like RVP said, it is a joke.

And the scoreline show some improvment, you can't deny it (from 6 - 3 to 4 - 3, not bad huh?).

The scoreline show improvement because Ibrahimovic was not around this time. Barca basically school us with total football, no set pieces required.

To be frank, as an Arsenal fans this is the first time I would say AW strategy has backfired and Xavi probably right about this. I felt like wanna cry too if im in AW position. Hopefully AW will have a good sleep and look onto MU game after this. We can make it! Go gunners!

I would said Almunia and Sagna responsible for the 2nd goal and shut us off almost everything. It is a defensive misplaced and a keeper blunder..However, now I know why Evra calling us babies, we're really are very soft apart from Wilshere & Nasri, RVP is especially a very soft baby. We can't play Barca, we can't challenge MU...Talking EPL grumble.gif MU should get 19th, no shadow of a doubt.

I noticed MU pitch was slippery too...You know that's the only lame excuse I can made of. Our light babies can't even keep hold of the ground, I wonder it was especially made for buffy Rooney. This pitch definitely can't be played during late fixtures, maybe during the lunch time or when it is a bit dry. It might contribute a bit to our bad finishing. But credit is where it is due, MU deserved it, they prolly deserved the 19th too.

I don't agree.

Look at Man City & Chelsea's improvement. The money has helped them to be at top 4 in BPL.

The same money can also help Arsenal to win trophies. Time for change.

Get a grip. We're already in the top 4.
