That is true. But Spurs have won more European trophies than you. Your record of success is on a par with West Ham. Fairs Cup was a joke worse than Europa
What a load of condescending ****e. I seen my team play in 'real life' about thirty or so times, not a season ticket holder because it's expensive as **** and we have a long waiting list, but to assume I have not seen them in 'real life' based on very little, speaks more about you than anything else. Oh and still nothing on the clear pen that was given against us?
Now you know what condescension feels like fella, honestly thought you couldn't comprehend. Now tab back and re-read your posts on the last few pages and hopefully you will have learned a valuable lesson.
Follow your own advice and see who took the first dig at who. I responded when you called our players a bunch of cheats because your players thought it was fair game to stamp on them.
Not really. But he did get stamped on twice, though. If anything our current team is too nice and honest and there are not enough dirty bastards and cheats. We do not have any serial divers in the mould of Robben,Pires or Young and we lack those players who indulge in the dark arts of the game, like a Vieira or Keown used to do.
I think the way Coquelin jumps in the air and feigns injury when anyone goes near him suggests you do have at least one serial diver. Did he really get stamped on twice? I'm sure more would have been made of it if that was the case.
It was in the commentary box, both Hoddle and Savage agreed that Sissoke was lucky to get away without a booking and agreed that the Mitrovic one was a clear red. And Coquelin does not jump in the air and feign injury, unless you have any specific examples.
I'm mostly basing it on the way he reacted to very soft challenges in the Newcastle game. I think if that's a clear red then the game is too soft. There wasn't much force in it.
So that makes him a 'serial diver'? One game, where the ref saw the second stamp and sent off the player who committed it. Wow. The game has gone soft and maybe with another ref it might have just been a yellow, but Mitrovic clearly lacks a few brain cells and has been in jumping into tackles since his Newcastle debut.
I'll keep an eye out for it in future but he was certainly making the most of any contact throughout the game, serially if you like, and giving out a girly shriek for comedic effect.
Not really. If he's throwing himself in the air and shrieking like a girl in one game it would be illogical to think that was the only game he would do it in. For a wannabe hard nut defensive midfielder, he came across as a massive tart.
So basically you have very little evidence of him being a 'serial diver' and based it on a game where the ref actually sent off the player that stamped on him, and I have even seen Newcastle and Spurs fans on here claim that it was a clear red. He is not a 'wannabe hard nut defensive midfielder' and does not claim to be that, he just does his job well and has been nothing short of brilliant since coming back from Charlton. But the next time you called a player a 'serial diver', please back it up with some actual serious evidence.
Sorry, but I've got to agree with Sanj and the pundits on this one. It was over the top and a potential leg breaker. Clear red card.
Well I can't magic a video out of thin air. If you think he's been "nothing short of brilliant" then it's further evidence that you're slightly delusional when it comes to Arsenal. He's ok. Would he get in other top sides? Probably not.
Of course he has been, ffs. I have no clear bias against any player in our team. In fact, I thought Coquelin was finshed at Arsenal, but he has proven so many people wrong with his performances. He returned in the second half of last season and we improved and so did our defensive record him with in our team, and he was also outstanding in games against United,City and Liverpool. To prove that this is not a flash in the pan he has to do it season in season out, but he has done the business so far.
Arsenal have and always will be the biggest divers in the prem. It's laughable why any gooners try to claim otherwise. Do gooners not hear the chants of 'same old Arsenal always cheating' at every away ground? Sanj needs to take his meds otherwise he will implode.
