[scous3r]

Got 30 quid on Udinese to win @ 6/1 and £20 quid on Di Natale to score 1st goal @ 7/1

 

........... COME ON "Zebrette"

 

p.s hope Vermaelen and Ramsey get injured

I have a feeling Arsenal will go out.

[ScouseJim]

I have a feeling Arsenal will go out.

 

Got that same feeling!

[Lee909]

Arsenal will beat these easy enough imo.

Had Udinesse kept there best players then it would be a much closer game.

Im looking forward to seeing Agyemang-Badu,hearing people say he is a good prospect.

[Hand Shandy]

Want Arsenal to lose.

 

On a separate note, I didn't know Joe was good enough to make it onto Udinese's bench...

[Beantown Red]

1-0 Arsenal Walcott

[Guest Numero Veinticinco]

I want Arsenal in the CL. I want them to have as many games as possible.

[usernameunknown]

Shame they got such an easy tie. Rubin would have knocked them out I reckon.

Doesnt work like that. Teams tend to play better being in the CL

[Lurtz]

Suarez and Carroll are going to rip this defence a new arsehole on Saturday. If Udinese could finish they'd be in front by now.

Di Natale is probably a better finisher than anyone in our squad.

Agreed. On the other hand I fucking despise gooners and I'm enjoying the turmoil they seem to be putting themselves through. And Chamakh has still got incredibly shit hair.

I'll take your word for that bro. Not much of a follower of Italian footie.

[Red Phoenix]

Damn, spent the first half using the wrong thread, didn't know this was here. Udinese look great on the break, will be gutted for them if they don't score at least once.

Scratch that, actually. They'll just go into the Europa if they lose this. COME ON YOU-DINESE!

[usernameunknown]

Worst finishers ever are Udinese, should be 5 or 6 up.

[Iceman]

1-2 Udinese is my prediction. Arsenal look soft and ready to bottle it.

[Ziggy Stardust]

Don't remember ever seeing him play before, but this Di Natale looks like a good player.

 

Arsenal's defence is still a shambles, really hope we have a go at them.

[Tossed and blown]

Score draw in this leg suits us better, so they've got to worry about the second leg. Overall the heirarchy would rather lose to us than go out of the CL.

 

Gibbs injured also, apparently.

[Iceman]

Agreed. On the other hand I fucking despise gooners and I'm enjoying the turmoil they seem to be putting themselves through. And Chamakh has still got incredibly shit hair.

 

His hair is unfathomably shite. It is French 12 year old visits le discotheque for the first time hair.

[Iceman]

Fuck Wenger is such a twat. All he needs is a center back and an animal in midfield and he would have won title after title. Why won't he spend the money? Surely he has to spend at least some of the Fabregas money.

[ScouseJim]

Djourou injured too now! Nice few suspensions and injuries for Saturday.

[Lurtz]

Gibbs and Djourou both off with hamstrings. Hope we've got our scoring boots on at the weekend.
