Hold on I didn't bring up the nationality thing, I was told United were more interested in Chinese fans so I said Arsenal wer emore interested in foreign players. There's no difference, it doesn't make a difference to me. Although if it was my choice I'd have a cap on foreign players to retain the growth of English talent.


"as for selling key players...how long til you replaced Ruud..or Stam? how much you paid to replace them?"

Well we sold Ruud and won the premier league so there was no need to replace him.

As for Stam, we had Wes Brown

apologies about the nationality thing, i thought that was from you.

anyway yes you sold ruud and won, however if you hadnt you know full well the talk would have been about ruud having gone.

you count your chickens/eggs (not sure what the expression is in english) at the end of season not after ten games. when you are still in the hunt.

as for wes brown, please not half as good as staam, but thats my opinion.

Not quite a treble winner, but a double is enough!


This looks like it's getting good.

From Fab's Abs:

"How stupid is that? Because chelsea conceded 4 at home last season and didnt win the league doesnt mean that will happen again So if liverpool are at the top of the table at christmas they wont win the league? Coz we were top then and we didnt win."

No, you deserve the , not me. Good of you to jump in two feet first instead of actually reading properly. It wasn't my point, it was the point of another comment that I raised. Hence why I began my comment with:

"There was another omen mentioned earlier about teams conceding 4 goals at home....."

As in IT WAS MENTIONED BY SOMEBODY ELSE. And I added further, ending with "....I cannot see Arsenal slipping as such from here on. They will have been read the riot act by now."

So before you start lambasting me, get your facts right.

"all the united fans have southern accents and all the LFC fans have irish/scandinvain accents."

I cant speak for the Man Utd fans but the LFC fans you've encountered must have been exclusive to you.

Your right Arsene Wenger would be sacked at any other club, because all the other clubs are not patient.

"I doubt it, Hleb was brilliant for Arsenal. It's a shame Wenger feels the need to sell key players."

Hleb was overrated. Sure he was a good asset last season, but for a supposedly attacking player he rarely broke down defences or scored goals.

And Wenger doesn't "feel the need" to sell key players, they express their wishes to leave (usually for Barcelona) and Wenger decides to get what he can for them before their contracts run out and they leave on a free.

Anyone advocating the sacking of Wenger is severely out of touch with reality. Arsenal are the club they are today because of him. Without Wenger we would lose our (already fragile) ability to sign top players and keep them at the club. His approach to the game has been revolutionary and his teams have played some of the best football ever played. Sacking Wenger wouldn't help Arsenal win trophies, in fact, I think it would have quite the opposite effect.

From reading the comments on here I'm more surprised that Arsenal fans aren't generally annoyed with Adebayors comments. After watching the game I thought, despite his goals, he looked lazy and not at all interested in comparison to last season when he was chasing lost causes and closing people down, in this game he just didnt show the passion he did last season. Personally, I think Adebayor is havin a wobbly like Ronaldo because he didn't leave last summer, playing good, but by his own standards nothing near what he can do. For me, after this summers antics by Adebayor, he should have been the last person to comment on their title hopes, nevermind being negative when asked! to be negative is to give up before the end. I also thought Fabregas looked disinterested but maybe I'm being too harsh & expect them to run around the whole game working magic lol. As for this apparent selling of quality in Hleb and Flamini, Arsenal have played much better football without them and with the introduction of Walcott & Nasri. Im actually a Nottingham Forest fan lol but I have a lot of Arsenal supporters around me and so tend to look out for them and watch them when I can and what I can say is Arsenal fans always seem to be optimistic and trust in Wenger and his youth policy, I'm slowly starting to see Gunners lose the faith but I dont think they will slip up again after this.
