Well yes, it's just the rest of the plan wasn't put into place!! I could se Dzjeko and Aguero giving that pair a right work out, trouble was they didn't see the bloody ball!


Anyone else think that Bony was shown to be exactly what he is, a target man scuffler without the requisite talent to play at that level?

He looked completely lost when he was on. Maybe if he'd started he would have fitted in to the game?

Dzeko is sh1t though there's no doubt about that <ok>

Regardless of who the opposition was, Bony is not capable of scoring a goal of the quality that Dzjeko scored against Newcastle last weekend.

The fact is Negredo is better then both of them put together. That's how bizarre some of City's transfer decisions are.

Regardless of worldies by Dzeko, one thing is Bony would have scored a simple header into a virtually open goal.

Agree, I was amazed they got rid of Negredo, especially as ppl at one point were saying it was the best pairing up front. He was quality and they were brilliant together at times.
 
Geoff Shreeves " Explain why you made Arsenal look so ordinary and you look so good?"

Berbatov "Because we are good."

Such a suave fcker Dimitar :emoticon-0103-cool:

A patronising question from that th1ck prat Shreeves, rightly put down by Berba.
 
I wonder how much income securing fourth then elimination at the last 16 or quarter finals of the CL generates for Arsenal each year?

Because I can see absolutely **** all reason for their existence right now as they make no effort whatsoever to actually win either tournament.

Sad.
 
Its not bad news for us at all.

Arsenals smugness was battered last night. Confidence will be low and should we beat them as usual then there season dies.

Ah but they now have the record for consecutive qualifications to the last 16. And are only one season away from equalling our record for consecutive qualifications to the competition.

Much like the draw specialists it means **** all to anyone else, but I'm sure it keeps their fans happy enough, and helps them believe they aren't utterly mediocre <ok>

They are a weird bunch, one of the posters over there has in their sig that they are currently the reigning "Community Shield Champions" and "FA Cup Champions".<yikes>

Never heard FA Cup winners referred to as Champions of anything before to be honest, they are just the FA Cup winners or FA Cup holders.
I even remember one of them had something like "The Markuss Leibher Cup Champions" in their sig once! When I asked wtf the Markus Leibher cup was, I found out it was a charity tournament played in the summer to raise money in the name of some business man who had died!!

Well, they've gotta have something to cling to after Valencia won the Emirates Cup. Sorry, I mean after Valencia became the Emirates Cup Champions.

Besides which, it was the first time in nine seasons that Arsenal even managed to quality for the Community Shield, so it was a pretty big deal for them. They won it undefeated as well. so it's an even bigger deal <ok>

British teams have been an absolute shambles this week. Must be one of the worst weeks for English football in Europe.
