@Arsenal4life. Gtf,Arsenal put their strongest team possible out against relegation fodder Birmingham and got tonked. Arsenal: Szczesny, Sagna, Djourou, Koscielny, Clichy, Rosicky, Song, Nasri, Wilshere, Arshavin, van Persie. Subs: Almunia, Denilson, Squillaci, Eboue, Gibbs, Chamakh, Bendtner. And PS,check your stats before posting lad we played kids/squad players on the way to the final.
Whereas you progressed one more round, got thumped, and will now be out of ALL competitions...in the middle of March. Tbh, I'd rather come 3rd in my group and get to the semis/final of the EL than get hammered first knockout round of CL. Even profits-wise, the former is better.
Clearly you missed the bit where Drogba terrorised Real Madrid single handedly ! He proved he could do it at the highest level. What did Carroll do to justify the expense ?
Nah you are not the only Gooner who isn't smug. We got outplayed comprehensively. But that doesn't hide the fact that Suarez is a diving cheating racist who should get another ban for diving "!
Did you not watch it on Sky? There was clearly contact. I thought it was a dive at first, but they showed it close up and his shin pad jutted out when their shins met. P.S - Eduardo.
Egad man, the argument was about Carroll being a waste of money at £35m and Drogba's name was brought up. I merely reminded people that at least Drogba had already done it at the highest level, Carroll hadn't. So what is your point ?
But there was contact. Dives happen every game, as you well know. Rooney and Bale's dives against you were worse because there was no contact at any point. As soon as Suarez does it, the racism thing gets thrown up again as if the two are somehow related.
Lets be serious for a sec - at MOST there was the slightest brush on Suarez's shin - as highlighted by MoTD. Dont give me that bollox about that being enough to send a player sprawling, then clutching his shin rolling on the floor in agony. He is pathetic. At least Eduardo had the good grace to hang out a leg a little and more to the point UEFA agreed that Eduardo didn't dive ! And more to the point, Eduardo "simulated" once, Suarez simulates once per half ! You can't compare the 2 players. One is scum of the earth who has to cheat to be a good footballer, the other is just a guy playing football.
My point is that whoever you were arguing with said he was 25 before he had a decent goal record, and you countered it by mentioning something he did at age 26. So I was reminding you of that fact.
Do I need to pull up a youtube video of Eduardo's dive to prove it? Everyone here knows which incident I mean, because it was a widely broadcast dive. And, as I said above, these kind of incidents happen every week. Suarez's wouldn't even rank in the top 20 'worst dives' this season. Who said I was going to give you any 'bollocks' about anything? Are you having this argument with me or yourself? Inventing things I'm 'going' to say... Let me put it simply: There was contact. Contact in the box without winning the ball = penalty. Yes, he dramatised it, but it was a penalty all the same. Szczesny saved the bastard anyway!
Handball = a foul. Which means, by your definition, every bad tackle is cheating. Cheating is conning the referee. A dive would be cheating because you get away with it. He got sent off for that handball.
he was contacted so a pen's a pen the guy dive or not is morally corrupt and socially inadeqaute .. no amount of talent or money can hide these facts, the fact liverpool support him to the hilt says more about that clubs "ethics" then 100yrs of history ever could ... class is something money cant buy ... racists?, well they can be bought... how much did you buy saurez for?
the cheat went in to a full swimming pool dive way before Chesney got near him. The obnoxious bastard was lucky that there was the slightest of touch between his shinpad and Chesney who had stopped on the ground anyway. Then the little ****e rolls over like he's taken a 12-bore to the guts. What a turd. And the ref wasn't much better- he could not have seen anything except the elaborate rolling over.
Suarez made the most of it, it was unpleasant to see, but your keeper messed up by fouling him. His reaction is open to debate, but the fact there was contact isn't. How the hell Alan Smith can watch a zoomed in replay with clear contact and still deny it point blank is the same bias some of you guys are showing. By all means focus on things he did in an attempt to win the game, and ignore the fact he stayed with Arteta whilst injured, showed genuine concern and was the one who called the trainers on. Is Suarez worse than Hitler? Obviously so... Check out this 'morally corrupt' guy: [video=youtube;jS0YUHKhE7I]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jS0YUHKhE7I[/video] Oh when even your goalkeeper is playing the simulation card...

Sums up why you went all out for the carling cup doesnt it mate. Cant hack it with the big boys so try and enter a competition that nobody cares about. Next you will be saying you want to get relegated so you can win a "trophy" by winning the championship
Then add the Fabregas fabricated penalty against us at their place last season. I used to have some respect for Arsenal and their supporters but these children are either ignorant of fact or just deliberately stupid.
