    If you get candy floss go to the stall between the two arcades if its open. My sister in law owns it (but wont be working there today)

    Give him time though. When he moved up to Montpellier he had an ok season in his first year and then the following year he was excellent and helped his team to the title. I think he is a confidence player and when Van Persie is a distant memory he will feel more at home. I think he might be at the top of the scoring charts next year.

    No way. He's good, but not that good. Plus if we miss out on CL, i can see an upgrade being signed in the summer. Maybe Stevan Jovetic.

    Yup, I really think he's going to be a force to reckon with next season. <ok>

    Great game by Giroud.

    And great game by Gervinho with a great goal and assist. <whistle>

    I don't think Arsene like Candy floss, but I'll ask him.

    Do you remember the surfing museum under the arches by the pier ? My mate Pete Robinson owns it, but it's now in Devon. Last time I was there Pete sold me a old 10'6" backyard Longboard <ok>

    Oh, Arsene says he will have Candy Floss as long as it's Red and not Pink

    You watched the ivory coast game instead? Jeez, you really are Gerv's mother.

    I hope youre right, but I think he would need any of the pace of Walcott, the strength of Drogba or the touch of Bergkamp and hes nnowhere near on them. Good game today with the two goals and I really do hope he proves me wrong, but I just dont think hes got what he needs to do it against the very top teams.

    Its true Giroud has been practically invisible in the big games.

    It could just be a confidence thing. Only time will tell I guess.

    What do you think of The Amex stadium?

    I like it, a bit like a half size Emirates and easy to get in and out.

    I do not know what you want from him really. By any standards he is having a good first year. He will get better against the big teams. I think his movement is very very good. He is good in the air. he has good technical skill. He can finish. There is a lot of talk about a new striker but I dont think there is a lot between Giroud and players like Llorente. Yes players like Cavani and Falcao are better but they cost £50m.

    lol you are so edgy and cool... I hope you do staple your nuts on the table when Gervinho plays for us after ACON.

    Anything that keeps you away from the board is fine by me.

    I have come to expect terrible defending from Andre Santos. What pissed me off more was those ridiculous shots he was attempting. We had them pinned back and under pressure and that moron just hits the ball into row Z for no reason. It was baffling.

    I think Santos has played his way out of this team, shame I had high hopes for him this season.
    He has flashes of brilliance, but 75% of his game is a liability.

    Yeah I would agree with that. Kind of a shame really because technically at least he has alot of potential.

    Did not see the third goal, again. Was it Walcott's or an OG?
