To make matters worse Liverpool had been time-wasting their arses off for most of the game and yet they feel the benefits of this later in the game as when we get a last minute goal, the referee plays on presumably because of the time- wasting in the game. But Arsenal had scored, Liverpool shouldn't
Plenty of defensive and offensive responsibility will fall on the shoulders of Emmanuel Eboue this afternoon. A player who can be fantastic one moment and then shaky the next. I expect Liverpool to defend narrowly with special attention being made to Walcott on that side so Eboue could find himself as the spare man at times. His powerful running could give space to others and could also make one of
Arsene Wenger has spoken very highly of former player Dragan Stojkovic, the current manager of Grampus Eight, a club that Wenger managed whilst in Japan. Apparently he has the same ideas and philosophy as Wenger. Grampus Eight have won their league in Japan this season but if he was to leave
As much as I love Bacary Sagna in the side, I love his no nonsense approach to defending. I also enjoy watching the marauding runs of Emmanuel Eboue at home. Having said that I think a game as big as Liverpool would suit Sagna as we can expect the opposition to venture out of their half more than
He has a bursting urge to drive tens of lorries packed with £50 notes into the Emirates. He wants to sit Arsene down by a candle light dinner and convince him to spend all his cash as he deserves it. Usmanov wants Arsenal fans to be happy and for Arsenal to win every single game without conceding any goals and scoring fives and sixes every game. Then we can all live happily ever after, although I still think that
The takeover news has been dominating the Arsenal news over the last few days and I must say I am a little bored of it already which is a really ignorant thing to say especially considering the importance of it all, but to be honest off pitch shenanigans do not get my juices flowing. I just cannot imagine myself
Yet there are plenty of questions and answers to be had. Where does this leave Red and White holdings? The cute and attractive name that hides the face of Alisher Usmanov. It appears that he has lost the race to own Arsenal FC but he does not have to sell his stake if he doesn't want to. Yet, if he
The third goal was like an Arsenal goal of old. Squillaci made a great tackle in the penalty area and Diaby held off his man, dribbled passed him and chipped a ball to Cesc on the halfway line, Cesc's first time cushioned pass under pressure into Walcott's path was pure Cesc. Walcott flew away from the
As usual Wenger has to take a slow walk down the halls of the treatment room corridor to check on the availability of players to choose from. The curtains of Alex Song's bed are drawn shut
The media paint a picture of Arsenal being dark and doomy apart from the football we play. Everything else is just a shambles. Everywhere we turn it is Arsenal haven't won a trophy for 6 years, Arsenal cannot defend, Arsenal need steel, Arsene Wenger will not spend, Arsene Wenger is a moaner
