Taking Responsibility seems to be a problem from top to bottom

This season is incredible. There has been crazy highs, and last night, it hit an all new low.

If this doesn't call for a squad clear out, I don't know what does anymore. Some of those players just ain't up to it, and I gotta emphasise that they've been given a wealth of chances to prove that they have the goods. This blind faith that Wenger has, needs to stop right now.

DEADWOOD:

Almunia

Only brilliant when Lehmann was ahead of him. If he never took his chance that season, he might as well disappeared. The speed at which Wenger removed Lehmann from power was alarming to say the least. The first, didn't cost us points and we won. The second fumble, made a 1-0 win over Blackburn a 1-1 draw. All Lehmann has cost us that season, was 2 POINTS. That's all. I can't begin to count how many this Almunia donated to the opposing team. United fans can come and whine about Van Der Sar reaching 40 but he is miles better than our resident clown, so are the other 19 keepers in the league.

Denilson

This dude has made 121 appearances for Arsenal already. Many will remember him as the one who let the 40-year old ref outrun him for Rooney's goal at the Emirates this season. And the Stoke FA Cup clash at the Britainnia. Totally lost interest in marking the player who was advancing into our penalty area and the result? Goals conceded. Can keep him around as a SQUAD player only, not to be relied upon. He will definitely stay because it's Arsene Wenger, but when Aaron Ramsey makes it back from injury, Rambo HAS GOT TO BE AHEAD in the first team.

Diaby

For all of his talent and technical ability, he lacks passion and drive. I can't think of anything that would motivate this asshole. Has stepped up brilliantly (AT TIMES ONLY) this season and was winning the fans over, until last night gave us a reminder that he will never be the player the fans and the manager hopes he'll be.

Silvestre

We simply don't need cover for the left back position. Is the 6th choice CB at the club, and plays that way, even though he's from Manchester United. Nuff said.

Flappy

Either pursue your career at a lower league, or go on loan somewhere to gain experience before setting foot again in Arsenal. Last season, he did well when given his chance in the cups. Since returning from injury, he has been nothing short of flappy. You would think that having a crap keeper like Almunia in front of you would signal that the number 1 spot at Arsenal is there for the taking. Had he done well (OR HAD NO INCIDENTS) last night, he would most likely start all the remaining games for this season. Like the rest of the Arsenal players, nothing motivates them.

----

There is lazy culture at Arsenal it seems. First, there was Adebarndoor. He was literally the definition of lazy, after signing a new big $ contract. His downfall was that 30-goal season. Never considered that 6 out of 30 was against Blackburn, and with goals, it's forever going to be quality over quantity. Quality in this case, simply means goals that win us games. 6 past Paul Robinson is hardly an achievement that translates into a move to Barcelona or Milan.

Why the midfield is a crucial position that cannot tolerate lazy people, is because it is the engine room of the team. From this crop of youngsters, only Alex Song has stepped up to 'key player' status. The rest really can fuck off. I'm not including Ramsey in this one though, but had Shawcross been that little bit smarter and less of a cunt, Rambo could have made some difference. His work rate is there, he probes and he passes. He gives passes away but he gets them back and tries again. We don't fault players on ability, we absolutely abhor laziness.

Craig Eastmond did really well last night. His inexperience showed, but he's an example of a player who took his rare chance in the first team and tried to put in a performance to stake his claims on that first team place. Sadly, with Diaby and Denilson as regulars on the team sheet, they saw no need to bust their ass to prove anything, because let's face it, Wenger's going to forever and ever trust in them no matter what they do. Make a mistake? No worries, Le Boss will defend your ass anyhow.

That is the greatest problem with the youth policy and no top class players in front of them. There's no competition for places and no other option. Diaby can stroll his way though that game and guess what? He's still going to start the next game against City, injuries to Cesc or not. The first choice midfield is Cesc-Diaby-Song. How can a first choice midfielder at Arsenal have that kind of attitude?

Arsene Wenger has got to sort out his youth policy. It's now or never. Get quality players in to show them who's boss and who they have to emulate to improve. As it stands, it sure looks like it's going to continue unless there is a change of management. Not something I will rally for, but even his biggest fans are having their doubts.

With regards to the GK situation, Joe Hart seems to be the name bandied around the most. Completely fits the profile of a player Wenger will sign, except that moneybags city might refuse. They're going to keep faith with Given next season at least, so Hart may relish being number 1 at Arsenal. Let's face it, whichever goalie we sign is going to waltz straight into being number 1. The situation is utterly bleak now, but I think it can be a huge draw for our GK targets. There's no secret about Hugo Lloris being admired by Wenger, and the French connection is very delicious over here. The last more probable one is Igor Akinfeev. I think his contract has 1 year left or so (according to FM!!) and Arshavin could take matters into his own hands and correct the goalie situation in case he expects Wenger to do nothing. Shava holds Akinfeev in high regard and I don't think he thinks of Almunia or Flappy in the same way or anywhere near that standard.

Also, transfer policy has to change. We're getting 'signings' this season simply because, Chamakh is free. Wenger keeps reiterating that he's the only one that decides the transfers so aside from just talk, this part he has to take responsibility for as well. It's not like our injury situation is ever highly unprecedented. Not having enough cover year after year is simply his fault alone. Can't come out and say that "I pick the transfers" and then shirk responsibility when you only sign 1 player at the start of the season, while condemning Senderos to nothingness, with Djourou out.

All the football talk should simply stop here. It's been an infuriating month so far. Every end-of-season period we only want next season to come sooner. Why is it the same every year? This has got to be examined a ton more. There is a difference between winning the league and simply finishing 4th. Are we only going to settle for being 3rd best? That fag of a brother keeps repeating that United have never finished below 3rd before. You know srsly, I don't give a shit about United. This inter-club discussion doesn't interest me. That fag always accuses me of being biased but he doesn't stop to look at himself in the mirror. I know I am biased. I am a gooner. Saying 'kudos to United' will never be in my language so screw off if you can't handle that. Being objective was never part of me as a person anyway, and if you can't handle that then I'm ready to sever ties. I'm already reaching the point where Arsenal trumps everything, even sibling relations.

I think people who are so free to write up petitions to fire Wenger should just devote their time to other things. He's still the man for the job, and when he goes, what follows is the managerial patterns of Chelsea. Benitez hasn't won the league before and he's still around, but not for long. I'm not sure any Arsenal fan would want Jose Mourinho taking over. He's just about the most capable manager there is out there, but simply unsuitable. The ManUre fans are all calling for him to take over from Fergie even after all his antics while at Chelski. If that ain't the definition of being hypocritical, I don't know what is. Maybe a United fan can enlighten you. I'm not sure they're gracious and forgiving people. People who sing "sit down you pedophile" simply haven't got it anywhere, in their brains or up their asses.

Here's a hiatus till the City game.

My Heart Flew out of my chest

Watching the Arsenal is not good for your heart, not good at all.

In fact, it might shorten your lifespan.

Bendtner at the death, going into the 5th minute of stoppage time, gives us the 1-0 win over Wolves.

Arsenal started the game pretty well, but without Bendtner up front and Diaby in midfield, we lacked a bit of physicality. Theo made it up with raw pace but his final balls were absurd at times and he lacks the technique to really get past his man. He did well against Barcelona as an impact sub, but as a starter, he's just not there yet.

Eduardo missed a glorious chance early on, with the goal at his mercy and no one closing him down but it's evident that taking shots on his right side just doesn't work. I've always thought dudu better as a support striker in a 4-4-2 rather than the front man of a 4-5-1. Make no mistake, we're so not playing a 4-3-3. It's a 4-5-1 made to sound nice.

Going into the break at 0-0, Wolves probably felt how we felt going in after Barca. So technically, we felt how Barca felt, except that coming out of the half, we didn't score in 27 seconds. Waited till injury time to do it.

Eboue just isn't a player that will be effective on the left side because he's quite plainly, a right-sided player. He still gave it everything though. Wenger waited till Karl Henry got the boot for a late tackle on Rosicky to ring the changes, which I thought should have came earlier. Henry's sending off was harsh, and you'd get the feeling that it was related to Ramsey's injury. On the other hand, that ass fucker went in behind Theo, didn't get the ball, and left his foot deliberately in Theo's calf. Should have seen a yellow for that, and still the red for the one on Rosicky. No sympathies there. He's a cunt and I enjoyed waving him GOODBYE.

Rosicky surprisingly, could continue. He was filling the large shoes of Fabregas, driving us forward, but it just wasn't working. Hahnemann in goal was denying us left right and centre and the score remained goalless. Silvestre switched positions with Vermaelen, with Wenger probably wanting him forward a little more.

Being a man up against a bottom side sometimes isn't all that rosy. From then on, you simply are condemning them to set their stalls out to defend. The way Arsenal unlock defences is with space and decisive play, which also didn't happen till that last last minute.

We're now missing Arshavin and Cesc who were key players so far and it's going to take a lot to cope without them. Barcelona looms and it would take a lot to not make a mess of it. Barca will be missing their first choice centrebacks but up front, they have the power to outscore anyone.

Anyway, Vela finally gets a game, but showed why he isn't getting any more than that because he's just not there yet. When Wilshere comes back from his loan spell he'll take his place in front of Vela in the pecking order I reckon.

Okay, watching the Burnley-City game while posting this and guess who just scored. He always has stupid goal celebrations doesn't he. The douche who said he didn't make the switch to Eastlands for the money. He's kinda the highest paid player in the BPL now, enough to buy his 72 virgins.

And it's 3-0 now in 6 minutes. -_-

I blame Owen Coyle.

Alrighty, I was being Arshavin-kinda-pessimistic and posted on twitter about how I'm not going to watch any more games this season if they lost/drew. Lol. I guess Mr Bendtner popped up and changed that. I'm pretty darn frustrated with all the shit already and I'm about to have my exams and this Arsenal is adding on the stress. My papers start the day after Arsenal entertain Fulham at home in the last game of the season.

To round off a sweet sweet night, Sp*rs fell to former man Bent and lost 3-1. Hur. When is St. Totteringham's day this year? Might go calculate right this moment.

ETA: YES. If we beat Sp*rs in the next game, we celebrate St. Totteringham's day.

An All Rounded Laboured Effort, but Ultimately a Win despite blind refereeing

If Porto was the performance of the season, then Hull was landing back on earth, back with the toothless attack we're all too familiar with.

At the end of it all, we won courtesy of a Bendtner goal at the death.

The ref obviously has srsly issues. Who would blame Steven Gerrard for giving him the 'V' sign a week ago. This wuss of a ref didn't see the need for further action either, after being on the receiving end of a demeaning gesture. His incompetence prevailed in this game and hull's goal, shouldn't have even been a goal because their striker was in a obvious offside position that the linesman missed as well, despite the rugby lines on the Godforsaken pitch. Blind bastards this bunch is.

The ref and his shitty madness we have no control of so I'll drop it here. The league simply does not possess top class refs for top class football.

George Boateng, captain of Hull City, led his team out to carry out the instruction of Phil Brown which was pretty obvious - to once again, get into Arsenal's faces. This time though, not so lucky for him. The bummer about the incident surrounding his first yellow was Bendtner being booked as well for being poked in the eye. Yet another stupid call by the blind bald linesman. That was a straight red for Boateng. Had he been sent off there and then he wouldn't have had another chance to have a go at an Arsenal player, this time with a rash challenge on Sagna. 2 challenges that deserved a straight red. Do you see anyone else doing it to any other team?

So, despite being level at 1-1 and having the one-man advantage, Arsenal didn't make it count at all.

I guess this has to be the negative of the game.

The shine of Porto simply wore off.

But credit to the lads who kept going and for Bendtner to not miss. Arshavin was having a bendtner-day with shots that he would have buried easily.

Having played in Europe already last week, we have an entire week to recover. Hopefully, the lads will put in a better shift when West Ham visit next week, West Ham who totally crumbled at Stamford Bridge. They're not going to give us a game as easy as that though. I'd imagine Cesc to be back by then. It's quite obvious that he is still that bit of quality we need. We'll definitely get Song back too.

8 games to go.

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.

Getting MIO had better not be futile

Greetings. I signed up for MIO a week before CNY and they only managed to fix it today. Which is fine really, even though I missed the Porto game on TV. I caught it via an internet stream. Anyway, what sucks is that the Porto game did and if the lads don't pull off a winning result at the Emirates I would have gone through all that trouble just to watch 1 game.

No thanks to Fabianski and certainly, no thanks to the referee who needs a cornea and brain transplant. How he is still refereeing is beyond me. I bet a female referee would do better.

Injury news ahead of the Sunderland game is quite sucky as well. Song and Almunia make it back while Diaby checks back in. There are several implications:

1) Almunia is still our best keeper and because Fabianski is a match-losing keeper, he shall once more play though pain for the sake of the Arsenal team even though he isn't a match-winning keeper either.

2) Denilson sucks, but still will play even when Song regains his spot as DM because Diaby is out

The central midfield trip of Fabregas, Song and Diaby sure is a great set up but when one is down, why does it seem like fuckin Denilson gets to step in? For all of Arsene Wenger's belief in his players, I'm sure he believes in Ramsey too. I'd rather a kid with lotsa energy and drive to give away passes when going forward then some numbshite who only does backward passes and isn't disciplined enough to defend. He thinks he's so damn blardy skillful he can play his way out of trouble but he's so damn farkin weak he can't hold off challenges. I've really had enough with this dude. Not busting his ass to stop Rooney's goal at United was the last straw. You'd remember the 43-year old referee outrunning him. Was responsible for not running FASTER for Stoke's 2nd goal too.

It seems like Gallas, Arshavin and Eduardo will miss the following game at Stoke too. That could prove costly, so we'll save that for a later time.

I told the manUre bro that Arsenal can still win the league and he laughed it off. Who can blame him man. From this point on, every game is a huge test of our title credentials and if they don't go on a winning streak then that's it. As it stands, fate is out of our hands. We've got to keep winning and the team needs to start by not conceding early and defending better.

Sorry for such a negative post, but Denilson really sucks.

ARGH YOU ARSENAL.

Porto 2 Arsenal 1

This was a fucking frustrating game. It's not about losing. This Arsenal team does not look like winning anyway. Nice of Wenger to declare his concentration on the Champion's League and the domestic league. The players simply do not show up to anything.

It was a damn open game with end-to-end action. It's like all the defenders gave up defending and everyone was given abundance in time and space with absolutely NO ONE closing ANYONE down. It's the kind of game that a team like ARSENAL would enjoy and run rampage in, except that we were fucking poor in every department.

All Porto did was moan and whine and dive and the referee bought it all. You'd expect some sort of standard from referees in this sort of tournament but all we got was the douche who allowed the Thierry Henry double handball. You'd think that incident was a one off, but apparently not. This is a referee that thoroughly sucks through and through with no merits whatsoever. Nevermind that you missed the stone walled penalty from the foul on Rosicky. Porto's second goal? C'mon. It's a kick in the box and I can't remember the last time teams were allowed to take a quick freekick anywhere in the opposition's half. Players get booked on those occasions where they did not wait for the ref's whistle.

So yes. Our goalkeeping department. It says a lot when Wenger said that he had Almunia play through pain. And that caused us pain. I'm not sure it really redeems that fellow for both losses to United and Chelsea. So now we know that he was our BEST option because Fabianski, is simply, SHIT. To blame for both goals. He has bleated and bleated to the media and the official site on how ambitious he fuckin is, wanting to claim the number 1 spot in goal. All that talk and nothing he did that makes him a viable option, now or in the future. The worst thing is, I'm damn bloody sure he's going to keep his place when Sunderland visits. I'd play Mannone at this point.

The defence, was shit too. Campbell got owned quite a lot on pace but his recovering tackles were excellent. Vermaelen wasn't his usual self, and while Clichy looked as though he was waking up, he's back to the Clichy who plays headless. Srsly. There is something wrong with all of them.

In midfield, we have, Denilson. I fucking hate him, and he didn't change my opinion much. Why won't Wenger FUCKING PLAY RAMSEY? Or move Rosicky or Nasri into the middle and START Walcott or Eboue.

Then there's Fabregas, who simply looked terribly out of sorts. He basically got caught up with being pissed about people fouling him here there and everywhere in every way possible instead of simply playing his football.

Then there is Bendtner. Another bleater. Oh how he bleats about him being the chosen one. The one the fans wanted to be signed in the January transfer window. Oh how I will deliver. This fucker talks too much. Just fucking shoot the ball on target and then maybe talk more.

I hope the entire team's performance isn't a result of the release of the top 50 best paid footballers data. I mean, Our only representative is Arshavin at no. 47.

This is a team that is missing Song and Arshavin. Denilson is a fucking piece of shit. Arshavin, would have flourished today with all the space in the world for him to work his magic. I don't fucking get it. With all that space, we couldn't keep possession at all. Not only did we lose, this time, we didn't have 70% of possession. That is beyond horror, coming from a team who plays like fucking possession wins the game. And we gave the ball away so fucking cheaply it was like a whores for free day. The team must be too used to playing in SMALL spaces that they fail to capitalise when playing in HUGE spaces.

And the substitutions couldn't have came any later. With play being that fucking open, you need an attacking player with PACE to get in behind the defence. And we have Theo Walcott, who was only summoned at the 67th minute. By then it was too fucking late. You see, when you have the fucking LEAD, it would make greater sense to SIT BACK AND DEFEND. By then, having Walcott on the pitch wouldn't be effective at all.

I get the feeling that Arsene Wenger fucking believes in all his stupid players, but has misplaced belief in certain players. For one, I still don't get why he loves fucking DENILSON so fucking much. Over 150 appearances for Arsenal and still nothing. He's a fucking weakling who can't stand up to challenges and simply isn't up to the task if you asked him to DEFEND. Instead, he prefers to go forward and then PASS THE BALL BACKWARDS. What is the point? Since you love playing passing with the defence you might as well just stay back and defend in our half with your best friends while the good people attacking can actually attack without fear of something DIABOLICAL happening when they lose the ball, which is inevitable. Misplaced passes in acres of space? What nonsense is that?

Every single player on the pitch played fucking badly today and I really don't fucking get it. The game was there for the taking and no one bothered. Fabregas sure looked like he has agreed to go to Barcelona already. I don't want to hear any of these shitheads bleat some more. At least when the goats do it, they're supposed to.

ARSENE WENGER, PLEASE GET RID OF ALL THE WEAK LINKS IN THE TEAM. WE REALLY CANNOT AFFORD TO WAIT ANY LONGER FOR THEM TO GROW UP.

P.S. WE HAVEN'T WON WHEN CAMPBELL PLAYS

Same Old Arsenal, always crumbling.

Watching this game gave me such a headache.

I went about doing the things I needed to do, like doing my CNY spring cleaning (at an ungodly hour I know, considering that the game started at midnight) and simply felt nothing when Drogba banged in Chelsea's first goal on 7 minutes.

There I went, fixing a new shelf from Ikea for my house and then not long after, Chelsea was 2-0 up.

Same old, same old.

Once again, a performance that was piss-poor, even if it wasn't as bad as the display against United a whole week ago. The lads knew what was at stake and never found it in themselves to make things happen.

Wenger came out at midweek to say that he almost signed a player. That's simply adding fuel to the already big fire. Well, I'm not burning inside at least. I'm past that to the point of indifference. Hoping for the best simply has ended in disappointment and United and Chelsea have taken 6 out of 6 points off Arsenal this season. A lot of fans are angry, probably because they actually pay for season tickets, but seriously. I'm way past the stage of being pissed. It's just not happening, and it helps to be a bystander.

I don't think there has been a greater low as a gooner. Ever. Well last season was crap too, but at least the manager brought in someone in january to try and change things and Arshavin lifted the team and helped us to 4th spot. I don't understand why this time, with the right money spent, a player in January could help us win the title. Is a top 4 spot all we are playing for?

Not too much on the game really, because this result was always going to happen. I would act all surprised if something different happened but it didn't.

Liverpool's next and a loss and we're more than just screwed.

Wenger thinks Arsenal were the better team for some periods on the pitch. OMFG is my reaction. We didn't get in behind the defence, we created but missed out on the final ball, when we did get in a good final ball (RARELY), someone there screwed it up.

Indifference is the word. Resignation too. We all knew this 4 game fiasco was coming and did nothing to prepare well for it.

If you need a reason to be positive, then Chelsea face Villa next and United face Everton. But wait, we face Liverpool.

This goalkeeping situation is fucking me up.

The defeat, was deserving.

First of all, we fielded a strong team. We wanted Song back and he was. The back four were as we wanted as well. Front 3? It was Nasri-Arshavin-Rosicky.

Arsene Wenger has refused to sign a striker yet he doesn't trust Bendtner enough to start him. Could be fitness issues, but we really need a good enough striker in Van Persie's absence.

Arshavin did his best to carry the team but he was left all alone most of the time. If he wasn't getting support you'd imagine everyone else to be busy defending their arses because of a United bombardment. We however found ourselves on the back of a 3-0 scoreline on 55 minutes.

By that time, the game is all over no matter what you do.

Almunia continues to be crap and I don't know what it takes for him to be dropped. He got Jens out of the club and was looking to be a solid replacement until this season came and we might as well not play a keeper there. His distribution is ever so poor and his throwing is nonsense as well. Then you look at our 2nd choice and it's Fabianski. Everyone wants to be the number 1 keeper but no one is good enough. It's all talk and no nothing else. Mannone has jumped on that bandwagon too, by declaring his intent to claim that number 1 shirt just after signing a new long term deal at the club. Goalkeepers often train separately from the rest of the team because it's a more specialised position so I guess the 2 behind Almunia should have an inkling that the position is there for the taking. But nooo, they all become best friends and talk a load of crap and under perform when given the chance. Mannone did well when the season started but if Almunia is dropped, Fabianski will be the one with a chance. It would take nothing short of a disaster for us to drop our first 2 goalkeepers if injuries do not play a part. Anyway, perhaps Almunia will get a dodgy 'chest infection' now. I really hope he does.

Then now we come to that left back position. Clichy got crocked. Gibbs filled in. Then Gibbs got crocked. Traore filled in. Traore was doing so well until he got owned. And then he got owned some more. Clichy came back. And he's getting owned. We have 3 good left backs and one who has been proven to be defensively sound with good pace but he's getting owned. And I thought the only criticism of Gael is that he can't cross. Otherwise, he does a good job. Now it seems that he has forgotten everything else. And still can't cross.

United haven't won at the Emirates in the league and now they have. They've won here in the Champion's League and by the same scoreline. Those were warning bells weren't they?

The Villa game should have set the bells ringing already. But they didn't. No goals in the game, and had Vermaelen not pulled one back for us it would have been 2 games in a row without scoring. I'll bring you all the way back to the FA Cup game at Stoke where our form was fantastic. Had we fielded a stronger side we stood a better chance of winning it. Going into the Villa game, the players will be a tad more tired but they have more belief. Perhaps they could have won and then this game could have been a lot more different.

As it stands, we're out of the FA Cup. Our title hopes look particularly bleak at the moment and it's almost as though the lads need the media and the rest of the world to write them the fuck off before they start producing the goods again. It's as though sitting atop the league isn't big enough for them to prove anything. The battle's not lost. Chelsea still to come and I think a loss sends more urgency though their veins more than a draw. Had we lost at Villa, the importance of this game would have been even more and perhaps they need that final push. Chelsea is in front now and if the boys still think they want to be in the fight for the league title they have to show it in the next game. United and Chelsea are to play each other and other difficult teams as well so there's a reason to keep on believing.

Anything less than a win at Stamford Bridge will be deemed a nightmare. We've got to claw back points and we've got to do it fast.

The transfer window slams shut tomorrow. Wenger will once again be faulted for not spending when there was a difference to be made.

there is no depth.

I need some cheering up.

3-1 it ended, us on the side of the 1. The most in-form team in the league has lost.

There are positives despite all that.

We never looked like winning, even when we threw Arshavin, Eduardo and Ramsey. At 1-1, you'd understand why Wenger would want to go for the win. At that moment, the thought of scheduling a replay in the midst of our congested fixture list was just plain bad. DNW is the phrase. At the end of the game though, I don't know how many of us would have taken that 1-1 scoreline instead of being greedy.

It was all not meant to be because the 3 that came on didn't really impose themselves on the game enough to turn the game around. Instead, our lacklustre attack left us more exposed at the back, and we couldn't deal with it. As it was, the back 5 weren't the first choice first teamers you would have liked and they were always going to have problems. I thought Sol Campbell did well with what he was given to do and Silvestre did ok. Stoke rarely threatened in open play. When we could deal with their long throws and high balls the defence did fine, up until they were left wide open with unsuccessful attacks.

The youngsters did as well as they could. I though fielding Fabregas was a statement of intent and he worked tirelessly for the team but things just didn't fall into place for him. This game ain't a bad thing really. Gives our young captain a little bit more experience. Things will never always be smooth-sailing and you gotta learn how to react.

All in all, either you go through to the next round, or you don't. It's one trophy lost. We're still in the running for 2, the 2 that aren't the most straightforward. Hopefully this doesn't result in a bad run of form and the depth of the squad was tested and they failed. There's still time for that to change but I doubt it, with Bendtner due to return at Aston Villa. Not a lot of time between then and the end of the window for him to screw up just in time for Wenger to realise that he really needs to buy. And this probably gave us a glimpse of how diabolical it'll be if one of Vermaelen or Gallas has to be replaced.

Games are going to come in thick and fast now so there's not time to mope but to look to the Villa game. Till then.

No. 1 Fan! It sings!

Sooooo. I bet you peeps who have Facebook would have added Arsenal FC to your watch list.

And they came up with something utterly hilarous.

I can't stop lol-ing at it. Here's the description:

Are you Arsenals No. 1 fan? Well this little fella is! He sways, waves his scarf and sings five famous Arsenal terrace chants!

HEH.It looks so retarded.

Kay team news see Sagna rested for Stoke from a sore shoulder and Diaby out for at least Stoke and Villa next week with a calf injury. You get the feeling that everytime Arsenal hit highs on the pitch, the injury list lengthens. Either they try too damn hard or they simply need to be bubble-wrapped. Last season it all went downhill as the injuries piled up but this season it's completely different. The squad is going from strength-to-strength. May it long continue while people make it back from the treatment room.

Bolton in the form of Owen Coyle and Paul Robinson are busy whining to the press about that one Gallas mistimed challenge to cover up for the fact that they fucked up a 2-0 lead. Quite rarely are the visiting team gifted 2 goals and they couldn't hold on. Please do not blame it on one Gallas challenge. The bunch of douches had at least 3 men who could stop Cesc from putting the ball into the back of the net but they failed. Not 1, not 2, but at least 3. Who do they have to blame but themselves. Hence. Once again, diverting attention away from their own incompetence. It's just like how the Haiti President is complaining about the slow relief efforts when he should have done a whole lot more for buildings safety that would most definitely lessen the devastating outcome. Never considered that the non-existent infrastructure may be the cause of the delay. I mean, hell, people have to help them repair their ports and run their airport.

Lastly, the tension between City and United is getting to epic proportions. Bunch of petty people aren't they all? You said this, and he did this and then someone gives you the finger. There's still another leg to be played so it'll be better to wait till the end to have the last laugh. Anything done between now and then is pretty pointless because it's the result that matters. Anyway, as I was reflecting, it was a good thing Arsenal were dumped out of the Carling Cup by City. I think 2 games against Man Utd would affect our current run. Our fixtures are congested as hell as it is and if we were in the semis we may not have played out our game in hand and definitely would not be top of the league at the moment. Also, it gave Hughes something lame to hold on to as he got the boot. Oh...I got city into the semi-finals of the Carling Cup yay! And then failed to win a whole bunch of league games.

Going back to laughing at the musical doll who is the number 1 Arsenal fan, probably because he only sings and does not groan at misplaced passes. Heh.

7 out of 9 points for the Arsenal. Jetstar can go fuck themselves

After whining about the Burnley draw, it seems that Chelsea and Man Utd heard my cry.

We amassed 7 points out of 9 in the last 3 games, away to Liverpool and Burnley, and at home to Hull.

Not a bad result, considering how Chelsea and United have stumbled. We're within 2 points of United and 6 of Chelsea, with a game in hand.

Things are looking good, except that this weekend, we face an in-form Villa. The only good thing is that we will be playing at home and hopefully, Cesc would be fit by then.

I didn't manage to catch the Hull game because I got delayed by fucking Jetstar in Bangkok. My flight landed almost 7 hours late. Just because it's a budget flight they think they can treat their passengers like shit. We weren't aware of the flight delays at all because there was no announcement. The timing on the departure board just changed and we had to keep checking and even then, it took forever and ever for the plane to arrive to take me home. And mind you, my ticket cost $300 and my psycho family decided to book it without my knowledge, while they took SQ. $300 to fly to Bangkok is insane. I'd rather had not gone and watch both the Burnley and Hull games. Besides, the shopping in Bangkok sucks unless you want low quality stuff that do not last. And the things aren't exactly cheap either, with the entire population out to con tourists, especially their taxi drivers.

It's been 5 years since I visited and clearly, nothing has changed. Their Taxis may be of a difference make and model (vios) but their drivers are still untrained and are simply out to con you. Basic things like transportation is such an issue and there is no regulation. Tons of taxis are out on the roads and all they create are jams. And while in a Jam, they're so ready to offload their passengers at the nearest BTS station after running the meter till they're satisfied, completely not taking us to our destination.

If I never have to visit Bangkok again in my life, I'll be a happier person. Going there just exposes me to the ugly side of human beings. Being surrounded by Singaporeans is enough. We irritate one another but it's because it is innate, by possessing no logic at all, not to deliberately hurt another. If you need an example it would be not allowing people to come out of the lift before squeezing their asses in, same for the MRT. And the jumping of queues. How about boarding the aircraft when their row isn't called? The list goes on. Yup. We irritate one another. People with no logic. But we are kind-hearted and do not seek to cheat one another. It doesn't have to be a dog-eat-dog world everywhere.

That's it for my Bangkok rant.

It's Christmas week. Don't have a lot planned, save for a family Christmas party. I'm totally not in the mood to soak up the festivities because Christmas gets less and less significant as I grow older and further away from Christianity.

And then it's Villa for an early kick off on Sunday.
Mark Hughes is long gone. Heh. No sympathy here. Pride always comes before a fall. He was never a big enough name for City and boasting about a record number of draws is something not worth bragging about.

RIP Brittany Murphy. Cardiac arrest at 32.

They Had Better Pick Up the Freakin Pieces

This loss was always coming.

We have a squad that has strength in depth, but there are 2 positions that particularly, do not have a back up who can do the job like the first choice does.

And you could always put your money on Van Persie getting crocked playing for Holland. It has happened a lot over the years.

With Walcott returning and Vela waiting in the wings, we still had Eduardo. Rosicky, Arshavin and Nasri, all available.

Yet all of them couldn't find the magic today.

Eduardo did the job to the best he knew how. Robin took a few games to get the hang of it and he learnt the position well. Dudu just got thrown into it today and it was clear he wasn't accustomed to the positions he had to get into and lacked the ability to bring the rest of the players into the game. It is no fault of his. I believe, that with time, he'll get it.

In the meantime though, while Robin is placenta-ing, we might have a situation at hand.

The other position is the defensive midfield one which Song currently owns. That's another problem in January.

Looking at the team sheet today, it looked to be set up for an absolute stormer. Eduardo was up front with Nasri and Rosicky flanking. Seriously. I can't recall Samir and Tomas playing on either flanks before. Fabregas was in the heart of midfield with Ramsey starting and Song behind them. It looked so juicy on the attacking front.

I guess one of the problems could be the lack of communication up front. The players train together a lot but it's pretty different on the pitch. The on-pitch understanding has to be spot on when applying Arsenal's playing style. The player's movement and the interchanging of positions have to be very exact. When the regulars are missing the players coming in for them weren't able to string it all together.

At least they couldn't tonight.

The opening minutes were optimistic though. Rosicky's shot from a determined Fabregas cross was a fantastic one but it was met by a fantastic save. Apart from that, I don't remember any other time we came that close. After that Rosicky faded quite a bit and I forgot he was even on the pitch.

I'm actually pretty glad a bad game like this did not end up in a draw. Sure we lose 3 points instead of 2, but when a loss comes, it really forces everyone to sit down and think hard about it. A draw gives them consolation which I think is rubbish. Screw unbeaten runs. I'm only interested in winning streaks. If it takes one loss like this to get it all together then by all means.

And we all knew the day when the free scoring will screech to a halt. I'm sure no one expected it so soon after Fabregas declared his fear.

Meh.

Credit to Sunderland. They did well and deserved to win. Steve Bruce is an impressive manager. To be able to put together a team consisting of that many new players and be successful thus far is no mean feat. I don't need to cite Man City do I? 2-1 and they fucked it up in seconds. It was pretty funny. In the post before I said I'll put my $ on them drawing again. True enough, it happened. Their equalisers sure come at the most painful moments. I kinda thought we got rid of 2 hexes - one of drawing uncontrollably, and the tendency to concede right after scoring. And we shipped 2 players off to them. hah. I kinda watched the game for Adebayor. He's still the same lazy wuse who probably will only work hard when playing Arsenal, and then just wait for free headers in the box to score.

I hope I don't have to eat my words after this. I'd prefer a loss and then a run of many many wins to 5 draws in a row. I realised we play Chelsea next who are in top form.

2 losses in a row ain't what I have in mind. The team has Liege midweek to regroup. I don't want a horror show next week.

Having games in hand doesn't mean points won

Liverpool got out of their 4-game slump while we sink into one.

2 games may not make it a slump, but it sure as hell is following a pattern. This time, it was far more infuriating than the midweek game because we threw away a 2-goal lead.

And rather stupidly as well. 2-0 and they thought they were cruising to an easy win.

I don't know if it's complacency or over-confidence, the team really has to sort itself out because it's just idiotic to watch and this shouldn't be coming from a top side who wants trophies. Arsene Wenger promised trophies at the AGM and the players never rose to the occasion.

Frustrating to say the least, and no less regarding the goalkeeping situation. I don't know exactly why Almunia still hasn't regained his place. Mannone was only spectacular for the Fulham game and is still very very raw. I'm not showing any support for Almunia because he hasn't exactly impressed at all this season with the mistakes he has already made but things between the posts need to be sorted out asap. If Wenger's idea of all 3 of them being good enough then we shouldn't be conceding soft goals, whoever's keeping goal.

Midfield wise, the trio of Song, Diaby and Fabregas were doing extremely well. Basically, the entire team were doing extremely well until West Ham's first goal came. I don't get it. It's as though winning the game wasn't important enough. I think games like these are further exposing Cesc's shortcomings as captain. It is always going to be an easy job to do when the team is winning. The captain is supposed to be the one who makes the difference in situations like these.

Everyone has a part to play to ensure a win in the game and certain people have heighted responsibilities and the captain is one of them.

Certainly, a sound goalkeeping department would help things a lot. We've sorted out the defensive midfield position with Song stepping up well and Vermaelen has shored up the defence quite a bit. With these 2 done, yet another position coughs out more problems.

It is really high time we got it all right really. That's the only way we'll win trophies, not by declaring it and some meeting with the shareholders. The battles are won on the pitch and I cannot tolerate games being thrown away like that. It sure as hell does not make sense for wannabe champions to do things like that.

The penalty we conceded was stupid to say the least. Song blatently tripped Carlton Cole from behind so there you have it. Such carelessness shouldn't be tolerated.

As always, after every game, win, lose or draw, we look to the next one. It's Liverpool in the Carling Cup in midweek and I'm not too bothered by that. If the lads do well then alright. If not, they'll all be shipped out on loan by January. It's the big game on Saturday that matters.

Sp*rs.

Football as the swing vote

The Scottish whine-men drew 1-1 with Rapid Vienna.

I laughed my ass off at that one. I mean, firstly, I never knew that there could be sooo much rivalry between lower level sides. They aren't fighting for much. And then when Arsenal kicked them out of the Champion's League, all they did was whine and whine.

It's little wonder why they're underachieving. I never thought Tony Mowbray was their answer.

Back to me whining, cursing more likely, it's still all about Singtel isn't it? Starhub's shares plunged 7% from the announcement and their future is rather bleak. Everyone using Singtel broadband disses their internet service in some way or another. Starhub was good initially but I'm kinda suffering a great deal right now with it being extremely slow especially at peak times where there are more internet users.

Instantly, just by losing their football coverage, they could lose their broadband users as well, just because the service they offer isn't any different from the lousy shit Singtel offers anyway.

I am still super peeved by the whole thing but what can we Singaporeans do?

Just accept it.

I'm definitely getting rid of my Starhub cable by May next year. Screw the penalty. It's way cheaper than paying for nonsense I don't watch.

After which, I don't think I'm going to make a switch to MIO. Internet streams are getting better and better and more reliable and I'm going to stick with that.

This makes watching football absolutely free. And of course, there's the Liz too.

I think the TV in my room is going to become a white elephant.

In this time and age, it is highly ridiculous that we're not moving away from regulated industries and monopolies. It's just superbly retarded that one stinkin telco holds all the power to the only thing I live for. Just because football is the sport that has the widest audience in our tiny country the big firms have chosen to exploit football fans for their own personal gains. When have you ever seen Singtel ever giving back to society? Even hosting F1 was solely an attempt to cement their name on the world stage. I hope the world knows that they're a bunch of sick cunts who jump at the nearest opportunity to gain profits at the expense of Singaporeans.

And the world should know that our statutory boards are just for show. The Media Development Authority can simply be bought off and they'll stay quiet over this issue.

We could organise a street protest and we'll be the ones behind bars without any effort on anyone's part to better the situation.

Football is a pretty strong thing. We can all easily not vote for PAP just because. This single political party shit has got to stop right now. I am severely displeased and if putting more of the opposition in parliament is going to get me a fair deal for football my vote will go to them.

And trust PAP to release rumours that if you don't vote for them you'll be blacklisted forever and ever.

What a joke. Did I mention that Singtel is owned by the government?

And people wonder why civil servants are feeling way happier than employees in the private sector.

Never been so unlucky just to be lucky again

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

What a hilarious match. Like whuuuutttt.

You know, I wanted to by half goal Arsenal, meaning Arsenal wins the game by 2 goals. Thank freakin heavens I didn't have the time to do it. 5 minutes into the game and we're already 2 goals down -_-

What rubbish. First, it was a back heel by Eduardo where the ball was most probably for Cesc but it reached a Liege player first who made no mistake to put it in the back of our net. Then Gallas tripped another Liege player in the box not so soon after and they converted from the spot.

If memory serves me right, Mannone has not kept a clean sheet in his senior Arsenal career. And he had to stand in-goal for a penalty in both games as well. Like hahaha. Not his fault at all. I think the young lad needs better luck.

So 2-0 down in the first 5 minutes. Diabolical. Absolutely diabolical.

After that you expect a reaction and some urgency but it never came. The passing was wayward and they weren't finding their man. At all. Then from nothing, Diaby suddenly woke up and with some good skill he delivered a perfect pass for Bendtner to sprint onto and to finish from a tight angle.

2-1 at half time, and that brought us right back in the game. That was the crucial goal. Many a time we go behind early on but still go into the break goalless. This time there was a response just before half time and it was timely. Goals at the right time changes the mentality of the team.

After the break, it was back to being sloppy. The dudes maintained their cool and patience and tried to find a way through to no avail. And then we finally got some luck with the equaliser, which is highly controversial by any standards. Hilarious to say the least. I was literally laughing my ass off. 3 players were offside and that was what looks like a handball by Song.

Cant say this isn't deserved with the pressure Arsenal put on them. They too just sat back and invited us into their own half. Besides, their award of the penalty was pretty soft as well. I think the Eduardo factor probably played a part too. On another day the ref could just dismiss it, especially if it happened to us.

Anyway, with the equaliser you always knew Arsenal would be going all the way and getting the winning goal. And they did, through Eduardo's knee. That redeems him of his error earlier on but it certainly did not make the job easier for us. I'm glad he's back and around and I hope this whole diving shit will be history sooner than later.

All through the game when it was 2-0, I was thinking about the ex-gunners and their thoughts, you know, the ones who aren't involved in European football at all. Man City hasn't bothered to contest Adebayor's charge for violent conduct and good ol Emmanuel, in his pension home would be sitting in front of his TV watching the Arsenal, laughing at the scoreline.

Except that in the second half Arsenal hit 3 goals despite it being however unlikely and unbelievable.

Hilarious is the word. I don't think we'll ever get another comeback as easy as this one, especially when the players weren't doing as well as they should be.

All in all, it's 3 points and a win for a change. Glad the next game will be back at home. It is so much nicer at home.

Unexpected beginning, with a more unexpected result.

This is a fluke win.

Note to self: Bendtner is much better in the central role

It's always retarded to give away goals so cheaply

What a cold morning. I guess Autumn is really coming. Obviously I'll be on a plane home before all the transformation takes place. The changing of seasons have always facinated me. Too bad there is no such thing in Singapore.

The weather's fantastic. It's cool and nice and it's pretty cold at night but no one here seems to think so. I'm the maniac who walks around in a hoodie.

Anyway, last night's game.

I totally fell asleep. I hate late kickoffs sometimes. After watching Liverpool squeeze out a win they didn't deserve, I didn't realise the same thing was going to happen with United. Those two teams hate each other to the bone and yet, they are pretty similar at being tyco.

I watched it with the brother and he was pretty funny. He woke me up when Arshavin scored lol. And then I went back to sleep.

Now I've figured out that everytime I sleep through a game bad things happen. Bad refereeing happens. Bad things just happen.

The media is a powerful tool and they're retarded too. And Mike Dean is an asshole.

Ok off to shop my wallet away~

The Sheer Timing of this, is irritating

I am incensed.

Rosicky and Eduardo have left the treatment room. For once in GODONLYKNOWSHOWLONG, the injury list contained no one.

Until disaster chose to strike during training and Samir Nasri is now the first casualty of the upcoming season.

I would run around and trash about if I could but nothing's going to change anything about it.

This young dude made the switch from France last season and it was a good first season to have under his belt, one which would make way for an even better second season.

AND DISASTER STRIKES.

Is there a hex on Arsenal where the medical staff just refuse to go out of a job? I mean, wouldn't they love to take a paid holiday and never have to treat anyone?

Frustrated, frustrated.

Samy had a 44-game outing last term and it was fantastic not to be completely ridden by injuries. With such a serious injury now I wonder if there are any players out there who broke their legs and managed to not have their playing career dogged by related ailments.

I was in high spirits today, looking forward to the Austrian friendy which is coming up later and then this totally took the mood away.

I suppose there are certain positives which can be drawn. A replacement is not necessary, but Wenger should be looking into the odds of Rosicky staying fit while Nasri's out. I get the feeling that Tomas will be joining his bedside in due time. One less midfielder, albeit a creative one. We really still need our midfield enforcer.

A serious injury like that to a teammate can influence the mood of the entire team and it's a good thing it happened in pre-season. I don't think I need to bring up the effects of Eduardo's freak disaster.

I would scream OH GOD PLEASE NO right now but it won't help. In situations like these, even God can't help except to heal the leg faster.

So please, work your magic. If it were left up to the Arsenal medical staff 2-3 months out would mean 5-6 months.

Lol at another white strip

The first thing I do when I wake up, is to check for Arsenal news. And that's probably common knowledge.

But yeah, I wasn't expecting any exciting and thrilling updates of like perhaps, a new signing, but got to see Arsenal's third away kit.

It white. And it's just a white version of the blue one. We're going to have a stripey season.

I thought the yellow kit was going to be the third kit? So going to lose many $ spending it on 2 jerseys a season. I think that's the point.

I've read the reactions of other gooners and it was funny to say the least. Ah wells. I suppose if you like the blue one, you'll like the white one. The only thing I have against white is it being claimed as Sp*rs colour but our jersey is so much more awesome.

And I guess we could be at least a wee bit thankful, looking at what's around us.

These two are examples of wearing the colour blue, at it's worst. Everton added a fake cleavage. Chelsea added breat plates. They could almost wear bras instead.

Hence we should be thankful. I think ours does look quite classy and if all else fails, at least our home kit is friggin awesome.

That is so not my dress

Mooo. Eboue wants to leave.

Can't say I feel anything about it. According to him, a lack of first team chances are hampering his development as a player.

That probably has some truth in it, since his appearances last term was more as a substitute than as a starter. In front of him though, are Sagna and Theo on the right hand side of the pitch, although Theo did have quite a bit of time off from injuries.

A replaceable player to say the least, only that he is supposedly everyone's bff in the team. Who'll replace him as Arsenal's clown then?

Theo was in action last night for England and I fell asleep as soon as the first half ended. Credit to them for their win despite being reduced to 10 men thanks to some Chelsea academy failure. Gibbs did well again (at least for the half I was watching) and Clichy's not going anywhere so that left side of defence will continue.

Anyway, apparently my great friend took a picture of me while I was holding some princess dress at the toys section and posted it on Facebook and is advertising for all our mutual friends to go see. And then they'll comment. Boooo. I just took it off since it was falling off the rack and that transpired into being my future wedding dress or whatever.

Who's getting married?!

And she just posted it to her profile and made it public. I am deads.

6 on the trot as I examine the world's craziest crazies

So. I had to watch the whole game last night. Not that I was watching as intently as I would an Arsenal game but ya, watching.

Somehow, Capello seems to like to make half time changes so I was hoping that Walcott would come off for Ashley Young so I have all the reason to turn off the TV but he replaced Gerrard, who simply cannot play on the flanks. Young did so much better and that should speak volumes.

I wanted to set fire to the commentator who was constantly dissing Walcott with his every touch of the ball or when he lost the ball. For the love of God, he's only 20 and is still developing. If you are unhappy about his selection, take it out with the manager. I'm sure Walcott will outsprint you by a million times. He is so passionate about his game and country (sadly) that he's going to take part in 2 tournaments and forgo whatever summer R&R, going against his club manager's wishes.

So up your hole, commentator whose name I can't really be bothered to find out, except that it wasn't Martin Tyler.

I think I was pretty much caught up reading up on Osama Bin Laden come the second half. To be honest, I thought he was in his 80s. Weird beard and saggy face makes for such an assumption but in fact, he is 52, after his declaration of his birthdate. What I was interested in is his ideals and what he wanted for the world and why the hell do they call doofuses like him extremists. Now I know why. He completely lost me when his beliefs consisted of civilian deaths being part of the master plan. This numbshit claims immorality on homosexuality when he married 4 women and fathered 25. He too claims immorality on fornication, which is consensual sex between unmarried individuals. If every man was entitled to 4 wives, perhaps whatever fornication bullshit would not take place. If Osama had to be contented with 1 woman he would be more American than he wants to. Americans can go to Vegas everytime they want to have sex then. Marriage as an institution consists of one man and one woman and not one man and four women. That is what is truly immoral you cunthole.

I got onto the dead or alive chase (albeit a very short while) because of recent N. Korea rubbish. No one knows if dear freakin leader Kim Jong il is dead or alive.

Some things we'll never know. Anyway, that wonky dictator's wiki states that he is a proficient user of the internet and srsly, when the rest of his country isn't. I suppose he watches foreign television as well and probably subscribed to Setanta or not, since they're crashing out. Skysports then. If he ever supported an English team, it would definitely be Manchester United don't you think?

SAF is football's only dictator and we're all crying tears of sheer joy he didn't take the Arsenal job. He may have delivered more trophies to Arsenal than Arsene Wenger would have, but the fundamentals of the club, whatever makes Arsenal, Arsenal, and why I love the Arsenal, will all cease to exist.

Lastly, Capello is one hell of a manager.

Capello: I want an early goal

Capello gets it within 4 minutes.

How often does that happen? Save for the opponents having to be Andorra.
