    Anyone got any predictions for the big game on saturday? I think it'll either be 1-1 or 2-1 to united.

    On a different note we're basicly screwed for tomorrows game against Bolton, no Henry, no Rosicky, no Van Persie, no Gallas and it's against our bogey team...

    I wonder how Southgate will feel at the end of the weekend.

    Bah. I think it'll be 2-1 to United, because of United's attack and Chelski's defence.

    id agree with u on the screwed note, arsenal dont seem to do well against old bolton, especially with a list of stars out, u dont have a massive squad as it is, anyway i think 2-1 to united, there want to make up for the loss agaisnt celtic

    I don't think United would be too disappointed with a draw.

    Honestly today I'm actualy proud of my team, we went and gave it our all against Bolton and probably should have won, lady luck wasn't on our side (then again when is she? lol) as we hit the bar three times. Walcott was superb and I don't think we deserved to lose at all. A little dissapointed with the defence and the keeper because I thought they could have done better at certain points but overall I feel we can be proud of our performance. I'm just hoping Chelsea win tomorrow so that the gap between us and the top remains 12 points.

    Arsenal have one advantage the whole time though, you're still a game behind (by Sunday atleast) EVERYONE on the top 10 list...

    as usual, the same old problem wether its the young or old, arsenal keep missing the good chances they make...oh well the only good thing i can say is that anelka has started scoring...

    I think it was slightly disrespectful that Anelka celebrated his goal in the manor he did, we made him what he is today and he knows it. It also slightly takes the piss that his second goal was offside but oh well.

    Well pretty much. We bought him when he was 18 from Paris for £500K, three/four years later Real Madrid bought him from us for £23M.

    Actualy a fuck load of premiership players came through our youth system including Andy Cole, Ashley Cole, Jermain Pennant, Steve Sidwell, Steve Harper, Steven Taylor among loads otherw who I can't think of right now. We also made players who they are today including Patrick Vieira, Robert Pires, Sylvan Wiltord, Ashley Cole among many others aswell. Our youth system is defenatly among the best in the country if you ask me, I'm looking forward to some exciting youngsters coming through the Arsenal ranks such as Matthew Connoly, Denilson, Fransisco Merida, Marc Randall, Armand Traore and of course Theo Walcott whos recent performances for the first team have really impressed me.

    Now back to the nitty gritty of things. If we don't beat Fulham tonight I'm gonna take a piss on Wenger's face.

    EDIT: Better find out where Wenger lives because I need a piss. :lol:

    But in all seriousness we have a very huge problem.

    well it is true that Arsenal have definetly developed alot of good players even if they didnt get into the first team itself, i remembered that Kevin Campbell also came through that system oh well...the only other system i can think off that can compete is the old Leeds Youth System under Graham and O'leary, and the other one being the Man U youth system...
