    you could laugh if Maureen had won something last season ..anything , but ..........mmm awkward

    as it stands , in the premier league last season he was a specialist in failure.

    That vid you posted doesn't even show if there was a deflection.

    Didn't notice any deflection during the game or replays, hmm, anyone got a better video of the goal?

    Would have thought there would be more rotation in the air if it had got a deflection. Usually you see a lot of top spin if thats what makes it dip.

    You said have a season "equal to the last great community shield winners" so our season will mirror City's when they won the League

    Ignore Bodwanki. He's been playing chocolate fingers with his Man Utd chums all day. Trying to convince themselves that they are winners when they both won **** all last season. <ok>

    correct .

    Maureen makes silly statements , re specialist in failure......gets egg all over his smug facade ,

    Then they , the chav fans , have to deal with the embarrassment that ensues.

    It is interesting that people say that the Community Shield means nothing.

    Of the last 11 winners, 5 have gone on to win the title. So the question is; If we have a 45% chance to win the Premier league, are we contenders?

    Or is it only significant if 100% have gone on to win?

    you have to remember , that these people have spent years crowing about Arsenal winning nothing.

    Now there whole reason d'etre has diminished , its bound to hit em hard .

    Poor things.

    It's interesting to see the view that City were half hearted and treated it as a friendly and it was more important for arsenal etc that has been the general view in the media
    I just thought arsenal wanted it more and they made City look that way. Perhaps it's the usual pro utd/Liverpool media only too happy to play down what was an excellent arsenal performance?

    They lost the Community Shield 2-0 to United, so it has no bearing on the issue, as far as I can see.

    I dont doubt that it was more important for Arsenal .
    But these chumps are trying to suggest it was of NO importance at all to city and they didnt try .

    mmmm im sure Nasri and Clichy didnt want to beat us at all.........not bothered in the slightest.

    happy to let their old chums have some silver.......

    :grin:

    Why would they want to beat us in particular?

    You really need to ask that question about Nasri in particular ?

    I think Sagna's face on the bench spoke volumes
