Team for Arsenal

[Guest Jay W]

Dudek could have done better on the second goal. I'm more worried about the fact that Rosick was allowed to walk through our team tho'. The first goal was a good finish. In which way is this Jerzy's fault Mr T?

 

My bro thought Jerzy was miles off his line when the first one went in, and looking at it again he was, same for the second, maybe Jerzy's posistioning was at fault again although it was a tidy strike and low into the corner.

[Guest Raddy]

said it before, gerrard does not perform in the middle against good sides, he doesn't have the game intelligence to control the game.

[LEF]

Riise at fault for the first one, getting dragged all over the place and didn't know his arse from his elbow and the defense at fault for the second, half asleep and for some reason, didn't think Rosicky would be a threat.. They've had alot of joy down the right hand side so far and something needs to be done about that for starters before we conceed more.

 

You better play better second half reds, because your absolutely shite at the moment, especially Garcia. (You watch, he'll go and score now the cunt).

 

Yeh riise was out of position initially. Then when he got back he followed the ball and got dragged into the middle enabling Hleb to have loads of time to cross. The same thing happened at highbury. A funny thing though, when you type Hleb the spell check gives you pleb.

Various things to say at this stage:

 

Firstly, fair play to the BBC for given fulsome coverage and explanation on the protest. Motson even included the fact that McKenzie had worked for the BBC over Christmas. The Kop were fucking magnificent. I was choking up listening to them.

 

Secondly, that is the most disciplined I've ever seenArsenal play under Wenger. They were rock solid, harrying us in possession and holding their shape brilliantly.

 

Third, their first goal was brilliant. I don't see what we could possibly have done to stop it. It was a great pass that fooled the entire defence and then it was struck brilliantly and quickly in the one place where Dudek couldn't get to it. The second goal was shoddy though, and I'm blaming Yeshy Dudek (Copyright J. Motson 2007). He could and should have stopped it, regardless of what was happening in front of him defensively.

 

We deffo need a change of plan to get back into this. We haven't stretched them or put them under pressure once. I certainly think Bellamy has to come out for the second half and we need to see Xabi and Gerrard get a grip of the midfield.

 

Come on you Reds!!!

 

Spot on Paul.

 

Our defence was shit for the second goal tho', including Jerzy.

[theghost]

We'll force a replay.

[Mr T]

Pretty much agree with Raddy - Riise his usual hoof it up front or shoot when hes within 40 yrds of the ball - Garcia has been wank and Gonzalez on to give them a bit more to worry about.

 

Upfront there is little movement and this 1st half has shown how important Bellamy is for us. Kuyt and Crouch are no good against a defence who have a bit of pace themselves as they know none of the Liverpool strikers are going to run by them.

 

Alonso hasnt had the greatest of first halfs but at least hes getting stuck in there and trying. Kuyt also is trying and im sure will get his reward during the game.

 

Get Bellamy on and run at Senderos (due to him having a yellow and been wank) early goal and its game on.

 

Agree with most of that mate. I wouldn't put Gonzo on though as he will offer nothing more than Garcia at the moment. Get Bellamy on though as he has pace and technical ability to run with the ball.

[Guest Jay W]

riise is fucking shit. take away those long range goals and he's a non entity.

 

He's certainly proving you right so far.

[Stouffer]

My bro thought Jerzy was miles off his line when the first one went in, and looking at it again he was, same for the second, maybe Jerzy's posistioning was at fault again although it was a tidy strike and low into the corner.

 

 

Fair comment.

 

You can't argue with my ideas on Ian Wright tho'.

[Cardie]

Were we controlling it or were Arsenal letting us have it?

 

Seem's they went with a plan to let us have the ball and soak up pressure then hit on the break and we got sucked right in.

[On My Perch]

second goal was shocking defending as has been said, what was gerrard doing? he appears to go in for the challenge before pulling out and performing some sort or ballerina style spin

 

i was thinking that too! :telloff:

[Carradona]

I wish i could have seen it to comment on it.

[BatChainPuller]

I was hoping to see how far we have progressed since the fiasco in the emirates in the league, instead its deja vu. Up against top teams you get a real measure of where we're at.... Obviously Dudek hasn't helped, but all our shortcomings are on show. Get Bellamy on sharpish and lets find a bit of character and self-belief from somewhere.

[Stouffer]

Flamini is a big girl.

[Guest Jay W]

Fair comment.

Your spot on there buddy :smile:

Paul you bring sense when madness is taking over, sorry but I am so fucken angry. The only thing I will disagree with is the first goal Riise gave the ball away and was pulled all over the place.

 

Come on redmen.

[Cath]

Forgot to add.

 

 

 

 

Ian Wright is a gigantic smelly cunt!

 

Just got in from watching the first half in my Sheffield local with a bunch of ignorant cunts who follow teams who've won fuck all who think it's funny cos we're losing. "Fucking cheating Scouse Bastard" (about Alonso - He's Spanish but whatever) you get the picture. Fuckin' shithouses, But I agree with the comment quoted above.

 

As you were...

[Guest Raddy]

what is garcia fucking doing?

[Carradona]

Come on you redmen, lets turn this around!

[Stouffer]

C'mon Dirk, get them going.

[Guest Raddy]

get the little shitbag off.

I'm a bit late to this but I almost agree with this. The comment about the causes of Hillsborough still being controversial wound me up a bit. They're not fucking controversial you fence sitting cunts. Other than that it was ace and I cried.

You're ok now Cath, you're with friends.

[Mr.SB]

We're playing so much better now, some halftime talk.

[Carradona]
