A Battle Cry - Arsenal UNITED
I don't know how Ramsey's broken leg has led to the World vs. Arsenal, but it has.

Too many jealous cunts out there. They're envious of our success in all areas and simply, would not fancy us winning the league.

If you look at our team's mental strength though, they are hardly undeserving. They've been tested time and time again and still managed to stick together to get where they are now, you know, even when you can't trust our goalkeeper.

The point is, the only way to make the world even more jealous and unhappy, is to win the league and let them wag their tongues a little more. They all are fully aware of the position Arsenal is now, with the harder fixtures out of the way and the top 2 still to play each other and Liverpool as well. They're just scared shitless that we're in an extremely favourable position and is taking the chances to push us as far away as they possibly can.

I'm afraid it's not going to work this time. Watch this video and watch our little captain in action.



The emotions. The Vermaelen goal moment was the peak of it all.

Don't anyone dare doubt this team's togetherness, spirit and sheer determination.

Cesc never gave up. He tried and tried and tried, for 90 minutes until stoppage time and beyond, he was in the centre of it all.

There was some dicky Chelshite fan recently who decided to take all her Arsenal hate out on Ramsey's leg break and rub it in like 100x more, like coping with a man down isn't enough. Well there's great news for you: Arsenal have leapfrogged Chelsea in the rich list. For all of Abramovic's billions, Arsenal, without foreign owners, are richer. Yet another aspect of this club to be jealous and bitter about. Have fun at that.

People think that supporting a football team means nothing more than watching them play and cheering them on and sharing in the glory when they win. It isn't just that. It's being there for all of what football has to offer, on and off the pitch. With Arsenal, you have a club that is run in the right way from the top management to the bottom, from the seniors to the youth team to the academy, the lads all go through the same education, which is the Arsenal way. Financially, frivolous spending has no place. Everything to do with money is well thought out and so well managed that the fans bemoan the lack of big money signings. Yet this season, as much as we would have wanted a better keeper, a big striker and back up at central defence, we're still in the reckoning for the top 2 honours - the league which we have not won since 2004, and the Champion's League, which has eluded Arsene Wenger for a great long time.

Nobody would have dubbed this season to be the season but it sure is turning out to be a season we've never had before. Struggling through injuries have always been part of Arsenal. This season, we've arguably risen above this stumbling block quite remarkable. When Van Persie got injured we hit the rocks a little bit but the team dug deep and the midfield stepped up with the most-needed goals. We've come this far and we're so in the title race it makes my stomach churn so much with excitement and the tingling in my fingers, like none I've experienced before. People can wank off all they want about this and that about Arsenal but who are they to say anything? They're simply a bunch of nobodies who don't know any better and what's good for them. Arsenal is football done right in every fucking aspect there is to it. No question.

All that's left for all of us fans to do is to unite as the team has, and cheer them on, from whichever part of the whole wide world. According to wiki, we are 27 million strong. No more doubts, no more whining, just one thought - Arsenal will win the league.

Surgery went well.
So much going on in the world of football from one incident on the pitch.

Ramsey's on the mend.

The first step is the surgery, then the rehab. The club has done this before so I believe we are well prepared to handle the entire situation.

There are tons of people out there who simply have misplaced morals and brains. They chose to do the despicable and take out all their Arsenal hate to use it on this incident.

And we happen to be hated for all the reasons that make us the way we are - a footballing club with superb financial management. We are prudent, as much as us fans call for the big money signings, but the management of the club is second to none. Our debts are in control and you won't find us in a position to file for bankruptcy protection like, tomorrow. When the foreign owners of Man Utd, Liverpool and Chelsea choose to do that they're completely screwed.

Arsenal bloods youngsters and does this extremely well. We buy young talent and created polished gems. Then this makes people say that we're just a feeder club to clubs like Barcelona. Everyone wants to find an opening to screw with Arsene Wenger.

People who don't follow the Arsenal have all sorts of stupid theories and opinions. They don't know how shrewd Wenger is. Look at Adebayor. Banned for 4 games, with nothing better to do, has decided that it's appropriate once more to open up the Arsenal didn't want me files. It took a bus shooting for him to realise how lucky he is to be playing football at the highest level to actually stop being lazy. Keeps stating that he didn't make the move for the money. Look, you're the best paid player in the premier league. You make 8.5m Euros a year. Arshavin is our best paid player. He's in number 47 in the top 50 best paid. Adebayor is in the top 5. If he were still at Arsenal, he wouldn't be raking in more than Arshavin, being out of the top 50 altogether.

The whole Ramsey issue is not about us wanting to wallow in self pity. Another douche managed to rope Eduardo in and said we'll use it as an excuse if we don't win the league. Yet another uninformed asshole who simply talks without actually knowing what's going on. If Arsenal don't win the league, hell, even if they do, our problems ain't going to disappear. Our defending hasn't been the best and we're not cohesive enough. The goalkeeping department is a big big headache. Whoever mentioned an injury to Aaron Ramsey?

And if these scum knew better, Arsenal ain't going to take it lying down like they did 2 years ago. There's a good possibility that this incident could be a blessing in disguise (as painful as that is) and the final push for the players to unite and win the damned league title. Man Utd and Chelsea scum can savour their 6 points out of 6 against us and lick their lips but they both lost to Everton. And Chelsea just fell to City. You don't beat Arsenal and then lose to Everton and City. It totally defeats the purpose. The points ain't yours.

What we all want is for something preventable, to be prevented. That's all. We want our players to not get crocked by another player's recklessness. Malicious or not, recklessness is the problem here. Easy to say you're sorry when you're not the one with the broken leg. Shawcross is no angel either. He has made dangerous challenges in the past without breaking someone else's legs.

Then there are the people who blame it on Ramsey for having it coming. These people should just go screw it.

In contrast to last week, this week's going to be pretty hyped up even though we don't have a midweek game. For all the wrong reasons probably. I'm not even considering the international games.

All too familiar. Shawcross attacked the player I've grown to love so so much
Pictures of Ramsey's injury are circulating the web and and generally disturbing.

This is horrifying.

What may be even more horrifying is that the Bridge-Terry saga is going to get much more media attention.

Anyway.

Stoke, are thugs. Ricardo Fuller, looks like a thug. Is a thug. He's due to face trial for assault.

Yet another team who enjoys having a go at Arsenal. Yet another of our players suffering a horror injury like that.

If you said that Arsenal are inexperienced then you are wrong now. It's the same bunch playing together for the past couple of years and unfortunately, an incident like this is nothing new. Unfortunately or fortunately, take it whichever way.

At 1-1, they went on to win the game. At St Andrews when Eduardo was the victim, we lost the lead and derailed our entire season.

This incident, if taken in a positive light, which Ramsey would want, is for the team to go from strength-to-strength. What's more positive now is that Eduardo is in the team and he's on the mend and he'll be there for Ramsey and the rest of the squad and they should all get through this better than the last time.

I'm beginning to think how lame the English are. Firstly, in the Chelsea-City game, they found it in themselves to boo Wayne Bridge, former player, dude John Terry screwed over, literally. Misplaced morals much? Someday, your best mate is going to sleep with the mother of your kids and she's going to moan with delight.

Then came the horror tackle on Ramsey and the away fans sang "There's only one Aaron Ramsey" and the Stoke fans, classy as they are, sang "There's only one Ryan Shawcross".

February seems like a bad month for Arsenal. Eduardo's injury is almost exactly 2 years ago. Had to be at an away game on a physical ground. Eduardo was on the rise since his transfer to Arsenal and playing well, showing us why Wenger brought him to Arsenal. This time, Ramsey finally is ahead of Denilson in the midfield pecking order and is looking fantastic, taking his chances and doing well. And then this happens. With modern medicine it's less like a career-threatening injury. At the end of the day, the psychological side is the much tougher part and you'd see that dudu isn't the same person. I'm sure he'll get there, back to his best. If you need a good example of someone who came out of it then we have Diaby. His fitness will always be a question mark but he has really came good this season.

Stoke pretty much have nothing to play for. They're not gunning for Europe, neither are they in the relegation dog fight. They're doing really well in the FA Cup, save for the draw against Chelsea. Was there a need to do that to Arsenal? I know we can't ask teams to be like Wolves and lie on the road (Old Trafford) and let the car run over you but seriously, there was no need for over-the-top challenges like that. Surely it's all about the desire to "put Arsenal in their place" and keep their 100% record against Arsenal at the Britannia but there was no freakin need.

And people are standing on the side of Shawcross. They're a bunch of retards really. Another case of misplaced morals and siding with the enemy. If you'd look at his initial reaction before his theatric showing of tears, he was bemused at the red card, actually taking the time to glance up to ascertain the colour of the card, not knowing what he really did. Only when he saw the condition of Ramsey's leg did instant remorse surface. If you fault Eboue for being overly-drama in his game, then this one is Oscar worthy.

Photo evidence:



Credit to Tony Pulis though. He enjoys having a go at Arsenal, mostly unjustified. In his post match interview he wished Ramsey all the best and refused to be drawn into discussions about the game.

Cesc won the MOTM award but he won't be going to celebrate with champagne anytime soon. The positives are, that we're within reach of the top 2. Chelsea dropped points today and it was important to win. We got it, but lost a great player in Ramsey but life still has to go on. The team has learnt and will cope this time. It'll take years for Rambo to come back and Eduardo isn't completely his old self yet. Like Diaby, all is possible. The team will rally around them and this team sure looks like a very close unit.

How good a captain Cesc is, will show in the remaining games. And what a signing Sol Campbell is. Cesc is not alone. He has other captains to help him out. Vermaelen is there too and he's such a fighter.

3 points of Chelsea. 2 of United. They are to play each other, and Liverpool, who will be trying like hell to get the last Champion's League spot. The team didn't manage to do it for Eduardo the last time round. This time, they have a chance to do it for Ramsey, with Eduardo.

Stalkers! The scouts are stalkers!
Arsenal scouts are better stalkers than Man Utd scouts.

They made Ramsey feel more wanted and that's how he made the switch to North London.



I listened to what the two managers had to say to me and I was just more impressed by how much they [Arsenal] knew about me, what they wanted me to do to improve and the path they had for me.


Love this boy, really wish the boss valued him a little more than Denilson.

Injury news is heading towards the dark side once again, with Song and Arshavin possibly the latest casualties. Nasri's okay after suffering a slight knock against Liverpool and it's funny how the one who was taken off early on for precautionary measures is the most okay of them all. Arshavin's due to have a scan on his hamstring while Song looks to be out for more than a week.

We've got Diaby now, and he's definitely a starter in the midfield trio alongside Cesc. If Song is out, it makes way for Denilson's return. That is nothing short of diabolical. I really wish Ramsey is ahead of Denilson in the pecking order because Ramsey evidently has more desire and a higher work rate with a determination to want to change things. If you fault him for giving away possession, then do note that it's because he's making forward passes instead of opting for the safe route back to the defence, which happens to be Denilson's favourite route. Any more injures to our central midfield positions could be bad, except that we do have more attacking players who can fill in but the boss obviously prefers to put them higher up on the pitch.

Until the last 3 games, I never realised how similar Nasri and Rosicky are. Neither did I ever envision the two of them being fit at the same time, with Rosa being out for the entire 08/09 season. Nasri is also a player who has been dogged by injuries so it's nothing short of a miracle that both of them are fit. I suppose Rosicky is the player the boss will less likely want to risk because he is more fragile but his experience is invaluable and it showed in the previous game. His cross was utterly delicious.

Arshavin's absence might not be a bad one either, especially when we have Walcott back. He provides a very different option altogether and has a point to prove. I won't be surprised if he started the game at Porto.

Still some time to pass before the next match. Lots of things could happen and players can miraculously return from injury. I'm sure Mr Bendtner should be fit to start and finish and game by next week. I'd play him ahead of Eduardo.

West Ham couldn't do a Leeds and we aren't Man Utd (thank goodness)
There is only one Aaron Ramsey.

This dude has the fans singing the Arsene Wenger chant with his name in it, and quite rightly so.

It's a classic example of taking chances. The opportunities for him in the first team came and so far he has taken them in style, showing everyone what a big player he is going to be for us.

He became the darling of the team when he first arrived when Alex Ferguson and United legend Welshman Ryan Giggs couldn't convince him to join them and he chose us instead.

Look at how far he has come, this time, popping up at the right time to score the equaliser to set up a grand stand finish for Eduardo's header, which was nothing short of fantastic.

The game was pretty evenly matched from the start. Both sides created very little but eventually, West Ham got the goal they deserved for all their hard work. I'm not sure we needed to give a game to Silvestre who really isn't the player he was at United. He was slow to react and Diamanti managed to keep onside thanks to him and got the goal. I don't see why Traore couldn't continue in the first team since Wenger chose to keep 3/4 of his back four intact.

He shuffled the pack in front of the defence somewhat but Song kept his place to play one last game for us before catching the plane to Angola. Ramsey kept his place too with Merida completing the midfield trio. Up front Wenger brought in Vela and Wilshere but chose to play Vela in the centre and dudu on the left. I think Eduardo should be primarily deployed in the centre. He's not new to playing centre forward and is a natural striker while Vela has been mostly deployed on the wings. If Vela's in the centre because of height then there is not much case for that since there isn't a very great height difference between the 2. Overall, before Diaby and Nasri were brought on, we struggled to get behind their defence to create anything.

West Ham came out after the break and started to settle in a little more. At 1-0 against any Arsenal side there is simply no time to sit back. Behrami and Kovac continued to match us like for like in midfield and were doing a good job at that. Then Wenger, who has been really smart with his substitutes as of late, brought on Diaby and Nasri for Merida and Wilshere. I think before, if you mentioned Diaby as a sub late on to change the game, I would have laughed it off and expected things to stay status quo. But he came on and did really well and if he manages to stay injury free and consistent, he can make a difference this term.

So the draw for the 4th round has happened and looks like we'll be travelling to Stoke City. It's so early in the Cup and we're facing all the premier league sides already.

Sp*rs entertain Leeds United. Heh. I'm wondering if they'll learn from United's lesson or simply be Sp*rs.

So, this was quite the eventful 3rd round of the FA Cup. Man Utd crashed out to Leeds at mighty Old Trafford and Hull City, who created all that drama from nothing last season are out as well.

Ferguson has declared that the peeps who took the pitch tonight are not fit to face City in the Carling Cup semi final coming up in midweek. I think that'll do the youngsters' confidence a world of good. So much for youth development.

The Lads are really Stepping Up
Wow. Eduardo (courtesy of Kaboul) got our 48th goal in the league this season. And then Nasri the 49th, hot Aaron Ramsey with the 50th, and Song, the only song you'll have, with the 51st. His desire going forward to grab a goal to send a message of love home is priceless.

You only have one Song.

If today was a parting gift before he left for the ACN, then it was a real good one.

The 4-1 victory was a repeat scoreline of the earlier corresponding fixture played in August.

Fabregas has been confirmed to be out for 2 weeks so the team knew beforehand that they will be without their captain. Not that the team really needed him today. Diaby started well and played well the entire game but was fading as the game wore on. He sure does look like he has the one-half syndrome. Lol.

So, Ramsey filled in for Fabregas and Denilson. He did well generally and got a goal for himself. His goal with Song's means 2 more for central midfield. So, what would you give to have the two players in front of you out of contention through injury for a place in the first team?

Same question directed at Armand Traore.

Who too, was excellent. This time though, he was really good going forward and if you lined up all 3 of our left backs, Traore is one gifted with the most pace and probably the more purpose going forward. Between Gibbs and Traore, there honestly isn't much difference except that sprint tests puts Armand faster than Gibbs. Clichy would be the more defensively sound option with the most experience but we have a lot of quality in the trio.

The odds of injury to the 2 front runners are always pretty slim but when you're talking about Arsenal, it's possible.

Pompey did put up a fight but we proved too much for them. Arshavin didn't need to show up for the game either but put in a decent enough shift. Nasri was excellent once more and he did really well to win the ball a few times in opposition area. The lads did a good job and enjoyed their football.

This probably isn't the highlight of the game but my highlight is Rosicky coming on. He miraculously returned from injury faster than anyone else. I am amazed. Hence my personal highlight. Now, we cross our fingers he doesn't crock his groin or hamstring or any part of him before the next game. Or the next.

So, Alex Ferguson delved deep and came up with several of his 'wise' words, declaring the league yet another 'two-horse race' between his team and Chelsea, completely writing Arsenal off. It pisses me off, but with Arsenal, you have to thank every lucky star out there they're still in it right now. It wasn't this way when the new year approached on a few occasions now. We can't count our chickens before they hatch. We get through one game at a time and I'll wait till we win the corresponding fixture before I diss people like Ferguson. It's sorta like a mind game too, by not taking Arsenal seriously. The only way to triumph is to prove him wrong and I hope that's on the cards.

For now, I'm going to enjoy this win and our league position and the endless possibilities. The most desired one being us winning the league in May.

P.S. Bolton have parted ways with Gary Megson. It could swing in our favour when we play them twice in 2 weeks in January.

3 points, a clean sheet. I like it simple.
I am all about vulgarities. And I've had complaints. Oh bother.

This time though, it's vulgar for a good cause.

FUCK ME, ARSENAL KEPT A FUCKING CLEAN SHEET.

In my previous post it was rather gloomy. But yay, I was right. Desire. Desire is all it takes. Nevermind the height disadvantage. Desire. It gets you there.

Rory Delap came at us at every opportunity with ling throws to get balls into the box. If the boys learnt well from last season's game at the Britannia Stadium, it was to always go for the first ball. The way Stoke gets the ball into the net is built on a Stoke player winning the first ball and then flicking it anywhere in the sea of players for another teammate to stab it in.

And everyone all back defending that nasty throw-in went for it.

DESIRE. THAT'S ALL IT TAKES.

We took 3 points. That's all that matters now. Wenger has been talking up Arshavin and trying to get him focused on Arsenal instead of him missing out at the world cup and what a response that was. Eduardo suffered a set back just before the game, and it allowed Arshavin to slot into that lone striker role and he has done immensely well today. Who knew, that Robin's replacement, wasn't another striker but Arshavin. I don't quite know what he is. An attacking midfielder? He's just brilliant running at defenders. He has the pace and the intelligence and he had several chances for one-on-ones with the keeper, only to be denied by his first touch or his delaying of the shot.

When he didn't screw it up though, it resulted in a goal. That chance that became the goal was arguably the hardest of all the chances that were presented to him all night. He once again exhibited his zero backlift to fire the shot into the bottom corner. Brilliant.

Thomas Sorenson did pretty well in goal but was pretty powerless to avoid defeat. With Robin out, it sure looks like we've lost a penalty taker as well. Kudos to Cesc though. A penalty miss like that could destroy a person's confidence but he still manage to carry the team and get stronger and stronger. He never gave up and neither did the team and the second goal duly arrived, save for us who should have been 3-0 up at half time.

Vela came on for Rosicky and I hope it wasn't for an injury because I would most seriously flip. Vela did really well and when Fuller came on for Stoke, he was causing some problems and at one point, Traore looked to have too much on his plate and Vela came right back and swooped in a brilliant tackle to take the ball and then get back on his feat. Lovely.

Ramsey came on for Eboue who was struggling a bit and to be honest, I didn't think he would have featured as much if Eboue could continue. If we do lose Eboue though, it'll be a great shame. He was doing a really good job and is maturing a lot as a player. He was good going forward and provided good cover at the back too, providing support to Sagna, who too had a good game. I can't help but think that Eboue and Sagna link up really well, probably from their off-field relationship.

Ramsey stole the night at the end with his very well taken goal. He's always looking to score and he has and it was a fantastic strike to say the least. He's such a hottie.

If Rosicky, Eboue and Traore have injury concerns, this probably sucks a lot. Gallas looked to be struggling too. I hope the official site didn't put a hex on Rosa and Gallas by announcing that their contract extensions are imminent.

Midweek, it's Olympiacos and since we're all but assured top spot, it should be a Carling Cup team out there. They've got much to prove, especially after the defeat to Man City. Last chance for first team action before they get shipped out on loan.

All in all, a good shift put in by the boys. Desire beats the lack in height. Brilliance over brute force.

All I Desire is Full Football Coverage. Apparently That's Too Much to Ask This Season
The lads travel to the City of Manchester Stadium again.

Carling Cup tonight, which will be interesting. Man City will be looking to bounce back from their record 7 draws in a row. We really got rid of that hex by selling them Toure and Adebayor.

Now, we're simply losing. If you look at it though, we've lost 6 points over 2 games and if we start winning again, it's fine.

On the other hand, to throw away 14 points over 7 games is just retarded.

Both teams need to get wins to at least gain some momentum for the league games to come and I foresee the winner taking it all.

Lazy Adebayor will once again be fired up to play against his former club, the only games of the season he decides to not be lazy because there is a huge need to bite the hand that fed you, or made you who you are today, minus the lazy part. He has the potential to cause problems (when un-lazy) so whoever's playing at centreback should be watching him closely. The laziness in him will wait for a free header so the only way to frustrate him is to mark him for 90 minutes + extra time and I believe the likes of Senderos, who should be putting in a shift tonight, is capable.

Youngsters like Ramsey, Wilshere, Vela and co. will play. Nasri has just spoken about his happiness at the club after making his 50th club appearance last weekend. He hopes to hit 300 or 400 because he simply loves it here. I mean, when all the shorties are out on the pitch, the team is incredibly hot. The girls would love to believe that Arsene Wenger hires on looks.

Imagine a team with Nasri, Vela, Walcott, Fabregas, Ramsey, Wilshere (DIMPLES). Oh, I forgot Arshavin. The shorties have looks. Ramsey drives me crazy with his lack of screentime.

I didn't include giant Bendtner who constantly hurts his groin.

So, I got the email from Arsenal Singapore, which contained the response from Starhub regarding Carling Cup match coverage. Riggghhhht. I saw the part where negotiations reached a standstill and I just rolled my eyes. Trust Starhub to hit a glitch in "negotiations". Have they looked at Singtel's football coverage prices? That's a big boy who knows how to play the game. There is no need for basic groups and all you need to pay is a freakin $25/month to watch every fucking thing, including tennis and F1. This season sucks because I don't have UEFA Champion's League coverage. When FA Cup season kicks off we'll know if we have that too. Consumers are always the last to be informed but the first to be charged.

Singtel's doing an awfully good job at winning us over. Low prices are key. It's the part where they win our trust that scares me. That's when we get screwed.

No game to watch tonight. I don't think anyone's surprised.

Come end May 2010, I'm throwing my set top box back at Starhub. Suck that. I can't believe I got a Starhub mobile phone plan just to get the hub club discount. So going to dump that when it's over too. If Singtel could charge us so much less, why was there a need to constantly increase the subscription prices over the years when Starhub had the rights?

Switching to Singtel is like getting a 50% discount. In Singapore terms, that's absolutely fucking worth the trouble to switch. And I doubt we'll get shit like "negotiations hit a standstill" or the fucking broadcaster selecting which matches not to broadcast just so that the football fans get the notice like the fucking day before the game. Oh yes. Sunderland away of last season.

Football fans don't forget.

Thank you ZUBAAAARRRR
Hah. Once again, the boys let the talking be done on the pitch.

Mick McCarthy set out to attack or whatever he calls they did and was soooo sure he'll get something out of this game. Didn't try to park the bus but play a really high line and press high up the pitch.

It worked for the first 20 minutes.

Or you need to play well only for 28.

Until Zubarrrrr hipped the ball in for our first goal, courtesy of pressure from Eduardo. I think after Eboue stole his goal the other time he decided to let the team know that it wasn't his before they started celebrating. The thing is, it is OKAY to celebrate an own goal like it's yours. Everyone does that.

After the first goal, you get the feeling that Wolves were falling apart. They lost their zest and determination to keep Arsenal at bay. But aww, these sort of tactics aren't going to work for the whole 90 minutes because I'd like to think that Arsenal have this gear shift and they can up one when needed.

Eduardo got a goal finally but it was thanks to a deflection off a wolves defender. Haaar.

Ramsey had a part to play and he did pretty well today. He has such a pretty face.

Jokes aside, the first 20 minutes saw Song relegated to the bench with Rambo coming it. Then Diaby had to limp off and Song came on and resumed his shift in the holding role. I think this has totally showed us how important he is to the team. He's doing so well and it his strength and presence which allows the rest of the team to play that swift attacking football we only know how to play. It was pretty diabolical without him and I'm looking towards January and it might be hell for us when he's gone. Or even if he (NONONONO) picks up an injury. I read this before the game (from Arseblog) and it's a really endearing article. I like him so much more.

Now that Diaby is probably going to be out injured, Ramsey has a chance to prove himself in the first team. His energy is fantastic and he's so cute to look at. Wrong reason I know. And then we have an international break and that's 2 weeks. 2 weeks for the national teams to crock our players, 2 weeks for the injured players to come back. Moo. They're the 2 sides of a freakin coin really.

Fabregas continued his scoring run in injury time of the first half when Wolves were just waiting for the whistle. Haaaaaaaaaaaaaa. Srsly.

The lads then strolled through the second half with Arshavin adding a fourth and then we allowed them to get a consolation.

The commentators were a load of crap to say the least. I don't get why people are so anti-Arsenal. These shits can just fuck the hell off because as a bloody commentator you're supposed to be bloody objective, otherwise just shut the hell up. Who says that at 3-0 up, Wolves will master a great comeback worthy of going into the premier league history books?

You can only say that at the City of Manchester Stadium. No wait. They weren't 3-0 up. The came back from being 2-0 down and then scored 3 and fucked it up. Oh yes. I have been waiting a long long time to say this. 3-3 it ended with Burnley equalising.

Another huge haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.

that's 5 draws in a row for them. 10 points dropped. I guess we got rid of Adebayor who brought on the knack for drawing except that he is no artist.

HEH.

That's all folks.

Play Eduardo at Liege please!
The pendulum swings. Now it's all Eduardo again.

With good reason.

UEFA decided that they only wanted to open one can of worms and screwed the cap on tightly on diving. The can left open is Chelsea's transfer ban, along with several more investigations into the other top clubs.

Somehow, no one is wondering why the hell Arsenal isn't right up there with them. I think with the signing of youngsters, the club is more willing to pay the right compensation for bringing a young one over and in turn, it does help the youngster feel more valued and it'll definitely be in him to want to repay the club even more.

And I cite Aaron Ramsey. I love this boy. Makes it so much easier when he's this good looking.



Keep the hair bb! And shave is the message for the rest of them, especially one Cesc Fabregas. There's no need to keep a beard like Xabi Alonso.

Ok anyway. Main point. 重点!

official club statement
dudu finally speaks

So classy. And yes. No need for more official club statements. Too many in the span of so few days. Too much drama. We're hogging the headlines for the wrong reasons, even though it's extremely heart-warming when the fans of the world unite against Adebayor. I'm just wondering if it's enough for them to bother boo-ing him at every game. Hah. He might make a habit of celebrating in front of the away fans each time and get banned every 3 games. What a way to earn his pension cash without having to work all that hard?

So yes, Eduardo will be available for selection for Liege. His methods are classy. No need to cross compare with Shrek's "I am honest" declaration and then he goes and dives again. And screw the rest of the world (Fergie in particular) for supporting UEFA. Just because Ronaldo is at Madrid now you thought you got rid of your diver. NOT. Shrek has kindly taken over. The real shrek is a sweet green ogre, but with a Rooney face. No offense to the real Shrek.

I will watch a stream on Thursday morning. Any stream. As long as I don't have to give Singtel any $, stupid retarded shits they are.

Won't hurt to post the streams here if I remember!

A Little Welsh Goodness
I interrupt this international break to bring you AARON RAMSEY!



Oh my Welsh boy.

Watch his goal for Wales U21s.

If Wenger is criticising England for utilising Theo for both the senior squad and the U21s, I suppose Ramsey should be getting the same attention too. Toshack that fickle fella calls up Ramsey and then drops him whenever he deems fit, just because he qualifies for the U21s as well. People should have defined places in the National team. Bendtner never had to play in both squads at the same time, despite being young.

A lot of utter rubbish in the press. I think they don't deserve any screen time really. How many times must we remind ourselves how big a cunt John Terry is? He is turning senile and completely retarded.

I have Rambo to make my day. His technique is simply superb.

new contracts, United to snap up Owen
We have two players livin' the dream.

That be Aaron Ramsey and Jack Wilshere, both who have signed long term contracts with better deals. This, coming right after Arsene Wenger released 9 youngsters, including Amaury Bischoff. Now I don't see the point in signing him last summer. Did Wenger hope he'll be our midfield guru?

Anyway, I like Aaron. Firstly, he's a must better than another Aaron, last name Carter, who is a douche. Does anyone care that he's making a comeback? I don't think he can rival Jesse McCartney in the lolishota-con genre. Gotta see how Dev Patel performs as Zuko in The Last Airbender before starting to mope about how Jesse McCartney should be Zuko instead.

If you haven't watched the Nickelodeon series Avatar: The Last Airbender, you should.

Then you'll know all our Zuko pain.

So yes, Aaron Ramsey. When he looks like this you have to keep him around.



Maybe Arsene Wenger does hire on looks. Even Verm looks like a younger, better looking Vidic who talks like Robin Van Persie. It might be an Ajax thing.

I think we might see more of Wilshere next season. Last term he only really played in the first half, mostly featuring in the Carling Cup. I suppose when the boys crashed out of it there wasn't anything else to play for at the turn of the year for them so he joined the U18s for their campaign and it worked out so well. Their FA youth cup match came after the senior team closed shop so it was nice to be able to watch Arsenal anyway, and cheer on the lads. Steve Bould did an amazing job.

There is nothing I hate about Arsenal really. Liam Brady is overseeing our Youth Academy. Steve Bould is managing the youth teams. Pat Rice is assistant manager. These are Arsenal greats who aren't chasing the glamour of being the frontman but in the backroom, patiently nurturing the club's crop of youngsters in order for them to make the step up to Arsene Wenger's squad.

I suppose I could call this an anti-cunt system but we already have a product called Cashley. Let's hope he remains the only one.

Ivan Glazidis has never failed to wow us since joining and I gotta love the man. He is sarcastic yet does not blatantly use sarcasm. He puts our perspectives in nicer ways to ward off certain unwanted oily Russian who wants to shake up the board room.


I am sure that our fans do not believe Arsenal is better served by abandoning its self-sustaining model and putting itself in the hands of owners upon whom it is dependent. They want success, and our challenge is to provide it in a model that preserves the traditions and values of Arsenal football club.


We don't have to jump on the Real Madrid bandwagon.

Another club who isn't, is United, who is set to sign Michael Owen from under the noses of Stoke and Hull. I thought this was funny. His brochure actually got to United. It worked. Amazing huh. They couldn't get Benzema so they settled for Owen and saved many moolah.

So yeah, Ramsey and Wilshere are going to be part of this Arsenal future. I can't help but snigger at Liverpool who have to sign Glen Johnson for 17 million just to make up the numbers for home-grown players. To think the stupid non-gooners actually thought Arsenal would have a ball of a time with the home grown rule. I think we're the club who has the least trouble with that.

booo internationals
This is when I say I am football starved. Like completely. Apart from injury news which aren't welcoming at all but to be expected.

Injury list contains the latest editions:
1) RVP
2) Diaby
3) Bendtner (who still will be played later :O)

Alrighty then. There are matches to be played tonight before the rest of the peeps on international duty return to London to prepare for the visit of Citeh.

I'm sure Cesc will be waiting for his mates with wide-opened arms.

I'm pretty settled at my new place. I've been rushing here and there for the past donkey days. Right, since last Thursday actually. Not that I have any reason to rest right now. I think I'll be rushing everyday till the end of May. That's exams for you.

But tonight, the football starved being will watch any football available. I know Arshavin should be playing at 1.23 am (what kind of kick off time is that) and then Ramsey plays Germany for his full international debut at 1.55 am. England plays at 2.55 am with no Arse players as usual so not interested in that one. I think I'll definitely catch Ramsey in action and a bit of Arshavin till it starts and probably flip here and there.

With that said, it is evident that my cable is up and running. I spent a good few days cursing the people who screwed up my cable. Because I chose to position my wardrobe where the original box was located, I had to move the box. And moved it the contractors did and screwed up the wiring. They charged me $70 to move one box. Good thing I called their asses back to fix it right.

The only amusing thing is, in the process of resetting my set-top box (why is it called a 'set-top box' I don't know), I managed to get every channel on the planet. Well not planet but every Starhub cable channel. I was amused. But of course, it didn't last. I turned off the main power and it returned to just sports only. Sad right. If only I knew how to do it again. All I have to do then is to never turn off the main power so that Starhub wouldn't know. Somehow after having to set this and that up you know how the hell the signal gets to your home and how to find a way around it.

For now, I'll just be contented with whatever I've subscribed to. If I didn't have the sports tier I could jump right out my window. I live higher now. Life's a bitch without football. Makes me moody and angry.
