He also claimed that Otamendi was going for the ball. He really wasn't. https://www.clippituser.tv/c/rvlaqz What do you think, Lee Dixon, former Arsenal and Man City player? Yeah...
I'm thinking Kate Bush now. Mmmmmm Kate Bush. As for the team, it was all very sad but not so unexpected. Yes we can give Citeh a game, I really believe that, providing our best team is playing and all the players turn up. To point out that we had three players injured / suspended is not an excuse, it's a very important reason. Very few teams could cope with the loss of such tactically important players (which means as others have said, Wanyama and Toby at the same time for example). As for whether it's an excuse, you can be sure that if the unthinkable had happened and we'd won that you would certainly be hearing about the players that Citeh were missing. I also don't recall much being said about our missing players leading up to the game. Toby was mentioned a couple of times but it wasn't until the night before on one occasion on that Friday 7pm programme on 5 Live that that programme with JJ mentioned all three. Perhaps I just missed it. Anyway, to put it more positively I really think we are top four, maybe runner up material with our first team out and playing to their potential. And thank goodness that certain people/person were "not posting" over the weekend because that would have been wrist slashingly depressing on top of the gloom that was already on here!
Calcio Mercato are running an article speculating what Juventus could have learned from watching the match. I'd lead with opposition teams can kick our players in the face with impunity while also getting awarded offside goals...

Thanks lads much appreciated . I look in on here everyday and post when I can .There is an easy atmosphere on here and we might not agree on certain things but it's all good humour and banter long may that continue. COYS here's to everyone having a great Christmas and special times with the family.. I got my pre op on Friday so once that's over looking forward to a few days on the beer and plenty of rum.
One day it matters whether someone was going for the ball (even if it doesn't look like they really are), on other days it doesn't matter at all. Dangerous is dangerous so is a red card (except when it isn't). Sometimes getting a boot in the face is considered to be worse than getting an arm in the face and sometimes it isn't. Fact is that as long as it's so subjective, certain teams are going to benefit from it and it's going to go without question by the pundits (and obviously the authorities). When we say "lack of consistency" it doesn't make the situation sound as bad as it really is. What it really means is the result of a match, and potentially the whole season, being decided on the whim of the ref. No of course the ref isn't going to send of Otamendi for that, as I've said before, what ref is going to have the guts to be the one that potentially ends Citeh's run, but you can be sure that the same action by a different player on a different day for a different team will get a red card. And nobody in the media is apparently going to debate whether getting a boot in the face (like in this incident) is worse than the arm that Sanchez used to get sent off and a three match ban - but several of them have said that Deli should have been sent off. I do often wonder what the point of following all this is.
Beer and rum. Uuumm! Nice... I remember when I was in my 20's (long time ago now!) I was having problems with nerves behind my neck brought on by work and a craphead of a boss.Why I didn't floor him,I don't know.I was very shy then I suppose. Well,I started making a routine of visits to the pub 4 nights a week That,believe it or not,cured it! The rum.....whenever I feel I'm coming down with colds,etc, I dump some rum in my tea and,believe it or not,it cured it! AH!!!! Scotch. I had a girlfriend for a while named Barbara. She was an ARSENAL supporter.But I still liked her. I called her my drinking companion.She would have 2 pints of beer and start on the scotch....I never saw her drunk (damn it!!!!?) But that's another story.......... Whether you like alcohol or not it can certainly cure one's inhibitions....and help with one's convalescence.
Can't beat a drop of rum my grandad used to say get it down yer kneck it warms the cockles of your heart bless him.Talking of birds supporting arsenal I remember years ago I was sitting indoors one night there was a knock at the door I opened it to find a girl wearing an arsenal shirt I said can I help you although by the look of that shirt I think you may be past help her reply was is mark in( that's my son)I said Yeh but you can't come in my house wearing that shirt so she went 2 miles back home and changed .needless to say that relationship didn't last long
When my uni kid was 13 or so she asked what I'd do if she dated a goon...would I let him in the house etc. I said that football rivalry was fun but love was what life was about so of course I'd let them into the house....so they could get to the back garden cos that's the only place a goon could sit in this house ...
