    Nistelrooy missed a penalty, and the guy in blue was laughing at him. Nistelrooy scored a couple minutes later, ran to him and cheered in his face. I saw owned :lol:

    The refferee (??) was just horrible. Someone made a horrible tackle on Van der Vaart and the ref did nothing, and then Cocu gave an shoulderpush to the guy and he got red. such a n00b :lol:

    What the fuck is wrong with Arsenal? We'll never win the fucking champions league with Arsene Wenger as manager and we probably wont even finish 2nd this year,I respect all he's done but while every team in the premiership were signing players we signed one...fucking hell :angry:

    We havn't finished outside of 2nd place in 8 seasons and if it starts to happen I'll start supporting Liverpool because they all have heart,heart Arsenal had in the 2003/2004 when they were undefeated for the whole season...well I guess Chelsea are gonna beat that record eh?

    Fucking football these days.

    Fuck Liverpool, support AFC Wimbledon instead. For one they deserve the support because they rule so god damn much, and they're also about 200 miles closer to east London.

    Seriously, Arsenal will never win the champions league without someone as influential in midfield as Viera. Sure Fabregas, Gilberto and Flamini are good but obviously not world class. Ever heard the saying 'players win matches and managers lose them'? Liverpool would be a lot worse without Gerrard, and Alonso to a certain extent.

    After (the other) Wimbledon became MK Dons some supporters formed AFC Wimbledon so that they still had a local team. Kinda like Man United and FC United.

    Arsenal wont ever win anything outside the premiereship IMO. and i think other teams will find it harder to do as well.

    the way they play is becoming more and more similar to the way foreign teams play. this doesnt only apply to Arsenal - its almost every team in the top flight. english football isnt what it used to be, the game has certainly changed over the past 5 to 10 years.

    english football was known worldwide for being a though game - i these days its a weak version of the spanish league, and many other leagues at that. chages in the rules also dont help the cause.

    english teams are therefore not able to get results when playing teams from different leagues. using Arsenal as my example, when they play in teams here they pass and move around really well and thats how they open up defenses and get their goal scorers in dangerous situations. however when they play outside of the UK they usually get played off the park - this is because other teams like the way Arsenal play and they can counter attack it better than english teams do.

    but obviously you cant forget Liverpool wining the Champions League last year. that was just down to getting down and playing real hard esp in their last three games in that tournament.

    the english leagues are becoming less-english IMO and thats why out top clubs find it harder to win games away from home in international competitions

    true....but the rules has made the game...more...erm....whats that word....softer, last time you could hack down a guy from behind and no one would care only the odd yellow here and there but now it comes out for the dumbest things therefore making players more cautious which results in somewhat "softer" tackles i guess....this is my theory if its the way your trying to say....

    And what are the odds of that? Villa were beaten 4-0 by West Ham, think of how I feel.
