it seems that everytime one of our players breaks a finger nail they are out for months. We are terribly unfortunate or unlucky with the injurys we have had over the past few years.

Not convincing though Bully, against a side that hasn't scored yet this year.

The replacements you have bought are nowhere near the quality of the ones who have gone. The new defender Meerkattermole or what ever his name is looks slow to me and will get ripped apart by City, Chelsea et all.
Arteta is quality but compared to Fabragas??? And your keeper is s bit ropey.

Posted that on transfer day and got shot down by the Arsenal faithful. Looks great in a German side surrounded by stars but differant story when he is the main man in defence. It will take him time to adjust but his lack of pace would make Gary Neville look like Usain Bolt in comparison

Yes you did Jim and I stand by my comments that 75 national caps for Germany will count for something. Must give him time to adapt look what happened to Vidic and Evra once they found their feet in England.

i agree it wasnt the best, but considering our position at the time we neeeded a win whatever the cost. A champ league game mid week then a trip to blackburn next weekend where we dont play well. Another testing week for us but to get the ball rolling, it was good at the time

we are so far of the mark we will struggle tp stay in the top 10 this season.

havent felt like this since a few weeks before wenger was appointed new manager in 1996. as much as it was an offside goal and 2 own goals, we should have not lost that game.

Two own goals and two offside goals. Defence is shaky but Arsenal were miles ahead of B4st4rds
I think top 10 is achievable

maybe so, but we need to stop leaking goals and piss one certain defender off, as he is rubbish.

Saw the highlights of the CC game last night. Admittedly Arsenal played a reserve team but they looked very ordinary in the 1st half against the Shrews from L2 and were lucky not to go into the break 2 or 3 down.

Also stated on sky (maximum reliability I know :roll: ) that he completely changed his line up after he got the VOC from the chairman. If true then it would suggest he saw this game as a win at all cost affair to keep his job.
