Arsenal Thread

[Flabio]

Just to underline the keeper situation at Arsenal, both the number 1 and number 2 keeper are out for this evenings game in Liege. I've never even heard of the chap you have in goal tonight...

[Flabio]

Oh my, that's really *not* the start Arsenal needed.

2-0 to Liege after 5 minutes.

[neoboy259]

Yay! Fantastic start fellas

[Jebus]

Was that a pen? I mean, Gallas didn't complain...but was it a pen?

more Karma justice for the Eduardo dive, and we deserve every drop of it

[Pavey]

They were talking about this Liege player, Axel Witsel on Talksport today. Apparently he got a 10 game domestic ban for this tackle but can play in the Champions League.

Two very dubious goals from Arsenal and now they have the lead... football is a funny thing sometimes.

[merf]

i am a strong believer in footy karma, we got a couple of breaks tonight which offset the Man Utd game where they somehow won despite only having 1 shot on target.

its a rollercoaster being a gooner at the moment, still at least no dull games, hope they keep it up on Sat as taking the boy to Emirates against Wigan.

in todays 'you couldn't make it up' category Eboue has a pop at Adebayor in the Super Soaraway Sun as his behaviour last weekend wasn't a good example for young fans.

yes the same nasty diving cheater Eboue who is a role model for all young players.

[Malavon]

Diving is one thing, stamping on someones face is another

[merf]

indeed, but is Eboue really the saviour of children and one to talk of examples ?

Jesus man that was horrific .

Arsenal domination back in motion today xD

[merf]

sign of hard times or fan frustration for the gooners (depending on your point of view), the Prem game against Blackburn gone on general sale, can't recall any game at the emirates other than friendlies or Carling cup ever doing this, I believe Olympiacos next week did too).

[saif]

economics i think.
A lot of murmuring that Arshavin (great though he is) was a sop to get the fans in for season tix rather than a pure football buy - hence not a DM.
