    It's a weird finish from Bale, isn't it? Still, it fooled Szczesny, although even Azza managed to do that with barely a drop of his shoulder.

    Arsenal's supposed match for Lloris completely misread Lennon's first touch and put himself in no position to do anything about the goal.
    I wouldn't blame him for the goal, but he really didn't help the situation.

    Yeah fair point mate, as the pundits do pick up stuff we miss, although it was JUDAS who done that mention of their failure to spot walcott runs, and I expect it was someone behind the scenes that wrote the script for him, as he struggled to string a sentence together!

    As for Adebayor, he was getting a lot of stick on here during the game, mainly because he was running all over the place, yet his run did allow Bale to score, and possibly he did make some good runs, but again its hard to always see everything, even if you're at the game or watching on tv.

    I like him and am extremely grateful to him but does he have to be so much of a scruff?

    I wish he'd clear his bloody throat before he gives an interview. I also wish he'd tell his assistant to stop looking like the village idiot.

    Better to look like a scruff when doing a good job than to look the part but be utterly crap at it.

    What a stupid comment, stupid and ridiculous, insulting the guy who's got you pushing for 2nd.

    Vein stupid comment, I am sure you are pristine and not actually a scruffy spotty teenager who gets a month out of his boxers.

    Your keeper is very good but so is Arsenals, would Lloris have stopped both Spurs goals? Also did they not buy their keeper first? If so your post doubly makes no sense

    I won't go back into the debate about Sczcesny, though I think he's decent and a prospect, but the 'supposed match' part of my comment was due to a number of pre-match posts.
    There Arsenal match thread had a debate about a combined XI which spilled onto ours.
    What does the timing of Arsenal signing him have to do with anything?

    When a player runs unchallenged through a static defence like both Bale and Lennon did yesterday, it's very hard for a 'keeper to do anything. It's harsh to blame Chesney.

    Possibly, Lloris has done well with one on ones all season. I'm not saying it would definitely happen but given that Lennon's not exactly prolific and prefers to pass the ball than shoot he could have done better than to gift him half the goal to put the ball into. It was poor 'keeping from Szczesny but obviously not the biggest error because the defending was awful, particularly after they'd just been undone by the samething.

    Fair enough but I think both keepers are very good either way. LLoris will make mistakes too, it was the stupid comment really, "Arsenal's supposed match for Lloris " by PNP. Why can he not post without bile.

    I'd have that guy nowhere near an under 10s football team passing his bile spite and lies on to a younger generation. Not a personal insult but rather prudent advice

    Think I agree with all of that Boss.

    Our play hasn't been great but it's got results, admittedly a lot has been down to some magic from Bale but the defence has looked a much better unit and hopefully with Defoe back now, we won't have to endure Ade up front much longer so our goal threat should marginally improve.

    It'll be nice if the general play could improve, there's been times where we've looked a bit flat and too many times we've passed backwards which frustrates me but when you're winning games and unbeaten in 12, it feels wrong to have concerns/ criticism but I can't help but feel that we can do so much better with the talent we possess.

    Like you said, I too have seen more positives in AVB since the start of the season but there's definitely room for improvement, from him and the players. On a whole though, it's been an impressive season (results wise) so far and long may it continue <ok>

    This is completely out of order, and absolutely a personal insult. He's been completely reasonable on every point, you're the only one spewing bile.

    He's scraping the barrell as usual and spouting off about something he doesn't know about. It just wouldn't be complete without his thinly veiled insults though.

    THERE AIN'T NOTHING WRONG WITH GETTING A MONTH OUT OF YOUR BOXERS :mad:

    Rightway round, wrongway round, inside out rightway round, inside out wrongway round, by which point anything that was on the outside out side is crusted so can be brushed off, and the system starts again. Student life my friend, when you wait 3 months between Laundry money coming in, you learn to cope.


    EDIT: Obviously, any more than 32 days would be disgusting.

    I think it's clear to everyone who's posting bile here, to be honest.
    It's hilarious to see you carrying a grudge against me for months, though. <ok>

    Take no notice of BBF, he is a moron of the highest order and would most likely piss his pants if he had to face us in real life and have a discussion, so he enjoys being insulting/rude online as he can get away with it.

    ps. calling BBF a moron isn't an insult. more an observation, before I get the hypocrite brigade replying :wink:
