RPQ v Arsenal - Saturday 31 March - 15:00 GMT

[Master Splinter]

These disgusting pub-teamers are pretty shit; the fact that they can only beat Liverpool being prime evidence.

No Cisse for them, so their only threat is already nullified.

Oxo should come in for Gervinho. Although Wenger might stick with Gervais if he for some reason believes Shite-Phillips or Taarabt to be dangerous.

Should be a comfortable 1-3 win.

[Marc Overmars]

I always think facing a Mark Hughes team away is a potential banana skin.

But yeah they are pretty shit and you wouldn't bet against us right now.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Cisse. :lol:

What a moron. Zamora has a tendeny to eat us alive though.

[Coney]

I always think facing a Mark Hughes team away is a potential banana skin.

But yeah they are pretty shit and you wouldn't bet against us right now.

What worries me about playing Hughes teams is you don't know which of our players will be put out for the rest of the season by his player's thuggery, Just hope it isn't RvP.

[fakeyank]

Gonna miss this game.. have my GMAT exam at that time :(

[LDG]

Gonna miss this game.. have my GMAT exam at that time :(

I'm assuming the G stands for Gynaecological....

[dazthegooner]

Don't wish to jinx us but heard that we haven't lost a game in a long time when we kick off at 3pm on a saturday :)

[Cripps_orig]

Sir Chesney

Sagna Djourou Vermaelen Gibbs

Arteta Song Rosicky

Walcott RVP AOC

How bad is Koscielnys injury?

[dazthegooner]

Nothing on the official site.

[Cripps_orig]

Laurent Koscielnly looks likely to return for the Gunners for their London derby with QPR on Saturday.

He pulled out of the Villa win but boss Wenger said: "It was tendonitis.

"I don't think it's very bad. He woke up with big pain. We tried to push him to play but in the warm up he couldn't move.

"For the next game he should be all right."

I'm assuming the G stands for Gynaecological....

I thought it was the Gay Men's Anal Test.

[GP]

I thought it was the Gay Men's Anal Test.

You passed with flying colours

lol

[fakeyank]

I'm assuming the G stands for Gynaecological....

Its graduate unfortunately!

[Flavs]

Looks like Cisse is going to get a 5 match ban but that will bring the free scoring Helguson back into the fold :unsure:

These are a bit shit and quite dirty but they have a deep running midfielder which we tend to struggle against, best hope is just to hammer them with offence and not worry about the other end too much.

1-4 win to the Arsenal for me

[Marc Overmars]

I hope we deal with Bartons WUMing as well.

[Flavs]

I hope we deal with Bartons WUMing as well.

He was dropped for the last match, lets hope that continues

[Olivier's xmas twist]

I hope we deal with Bartons WUMing as well.

Maybe Gev will knock him out with his forehead this time.

[Cripps_orig]

QPR v Arsenal


I did have a sneaky feeling that QPR would stay up but, after Djibril Cisse went and got himself sent off again in their defeat at Sunderland last week, I think they are going to struggle.
I thought Cisse and Bobby Zamora would get them enough goals to win enough games to beat the drop but now the former Liverpool striker is out for another four games and QPR will miss him.
It was a ridiculous red card to get, too. It wouldn't have been so bad if Cisse had come from another country having never played in the Premier League before but he's been at a couple of English clubs before. He knows how it works so there can be no excuse for making a tackle like he did.
QPR were brushed aside too easily at the Stadium of Light and they face an even tougher task here against an Arsenal team who are have won their last seven league games and are just in great form.
Rangers' defence is fragile at the best of times, and you fear for them against a free-scoring Arsenal side. The Gunners will create lots of chances at Loftus Road and, in Robin van Persie, they have got the person to take them.
Prediction: 0-3

Lawros prediction

[Japan Shaking All Over]

Win

[Cripps_orig]

Diaby injured again and will miss this match :haha:

[Master Splinter]

Arsenal: Szczesny, Sagna, Koscielny, Vermaelen, Gibbs, Song, Arteta, Rosicky, Ramsey, Walcott, Van Persie.

Substitutes: Fabianski, Djourou, Santos, Benayoun, Gervinho, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Chamakh.


RPQ: Kenny, Diakite, Hill, Derry, Taarabt, Mackie, Barton, Taiwo, Ferdinand, Onuoha, Zamora.

Substitutes: Cerny, Gabbidon, Campbell, Bothroyd, Buzsaky, Young, Wright-Phillips.

[Syn]

The Ramsey on the left experiment continues :bow:

[Fats]

Just seen that Ramsey is in the starting line up. I was hopefully before this. He slows the game down too much and constantly gives the ball away.

[Coney]

Just seen that Ramsey is in the starting line up. I was hopefully before this. He slows the game down too much and constantly gives the ball away.

It might be OK. If Barton commits a serious foul injuring him, then we can have SPQR down to 10 men and Ramsey will be subbed. :good:

[Master Splinter]

WUMger is definitely turning Ramsey into a winger.

With Gervinho, Oxo and Benayoun on the bench as well.

He can't help himself. :lol:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I wonder how Barton has been asked to play this game. :rolleyes:

[RomfordPele]

WUMger is definitely turning Ramsey into a winger.

With Gervinho, Oxo and Benayoun on the bench as well.

He can't help himself. :lol:

Totally bizarre. We may yet bag third, but Wenger's still an absolute mentalist.

[Master Splinter]

There's no-one for Barton to really WUM today.

Unless RVP loses it again.

[Dennis Bendtner]

I'm getting a 1-1 draw + wondergoal vibe. The last few weeks have gone too well.

[Master Splinter]

Arteta's 200th Premier League appearance today :bow:.

[Master Splinter]

No-one watching?

:rose:

A bit shit so far.

Free-kick in a good position now though.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Decent effort from RVP off a freekick.

[Master Splinter]

Kenny spills RVP's tame free-kick.

[Master Splinter]

Maccy offside.

We are the offside-trapping masters tbf.

[Japan Shaking All Over]

No-one watching?

:rose:

A bit shit so far.

Free-kick in a good position now though.

Watching. . .but still trying to work out whether Wumger is actually using Rambo on the wing? ? ?

[hymppi]

i'd watch... if some one would point at a general direction of a working stream. please?

[Master Splinter]

Decent pressure from RPQ.

[Master Splinter]

Zamora heads over!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I hate watching Zamora play against us.

[Master Splinter]

Vermaelen furthest forward. :lol:

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Watching. . .but still trying to work out whether Wumger is actually using Rambo on the wing? ? ?

WTF. you serious.

[Thierrymon]

I hate watching Zamora play against us.

There are a few players that save all their good games for us. Wright-Phillips is another that springs to mind.

[Thierrymon]

QPR with the better of things in the opening 20 mins.

[GP]

Zamora gets away with murder. Can't believe refs fall for it.

[Master Splinter]

Zamora had a shot saved after we lost the ball again.

Sloppy.

[Master Splinter]

1-0. Taarabt.

[Thierrymon]

1-0 QPR

[hymppi]

shit.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Good goal.

[hymppi]

c'mon vermaelen. that was weak defending.

[Master Splinter]

We've been alwful so far.

[Young Guns 11]

Vermaelen :doh:

[Thierrymon]

Hopefully the lads will wake the fuck up now. Barely touched the ball so far.

[Özil's Panoramic View]

WTF is Ramsey on the pitch

[gunnerrrrr]

Ramsey keeps dropping possession

[RomfordPele]

Wenger in 'I've picked the wrong team' shocker.

[Thierrymon]

Arteta laying into barton again

Arteta :bow:

[hymppi]

Arteta laying into barton again

Arteta :bow:
loved that :lol:

[gunnerrrrr]

Ramsey having a mare

[Master Splinter]

RPQ are GHELling for their lives here.

You'd expect them to run out of steam eventually.

[GunnerFan4Life]

Could i have a link to the game please?

[GP]

WALCOTT!!!

[hymppi]

[Master Splinter]

Theo!!

[Young Guns 11]

Theooooooo

[gunnerrrrr]

Theo!!

[GP]

A well deserved equaliser.

[Master Splinter]

Streams always die when something happens. :doh: :banghead:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Loved the assist from the post, beautiful one-two.

[WMUG]

Thank fuck for that.

[GP]

Loved the assist from the post, beautiful one-two.

He meant that.

[Dennis Bendtner]

Shouldn't we have had a clause saying Traore has to play against us?

[Injury Time]

so who scored? ;)

[hymppi]

ramsey close

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Good effort from Ramsey, just goes across goal.

[GP]

Rambo close

[Thierrymon]

Decent shot from ramsey.

[Marc Overmars]

Just got in and seen the score. Fuck.

How have we been playing?

Had a sneaky gut feeling we would slip up today but I hope I'm wrong.

Come on Arsenal!!

[gunnerrrrr]

where is Ramsey playing?

[GP]

where is Ramsey playing?

Loftus road.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Good play by Song, Rosicky could barely make a contact on it.

[Thierrymon]

All us atm. Would be nice to get a second before halftime.

[Master Splinter]

We're actually stringing some moves together now.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Loftus road.

:haha:

[hymppi]

We're actually stringing some moves together now.
yep. starting to look a lot better now.

[Marc Overmars]

It's 1-1?

WTF.

Beeb had it as 1-0 a couple minutes ago.

Get in!

[Injury Time]

where is Ramsey playing?
shooting for the sudan...

[GP]

It's 1-1?

WTF.

Beeb had it as 1-0 a couple minutes ago.

Get in!

:doh:

[Master Splinter]

Taarabt :haha:.

[GP]

Percy offside.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

RVP offside, good thing really.

[Özil's Panoramic View]

RVP ball watching a bit too much....being caught off-side too easily

[Dennis Bendtner]

RVP's shot saved, but he was offside. Regardless his finishing has lacked little bit sharpness lately.

[hymppi]

sagna started that fast offense really well, good passing.

[Japan Shaking All Over]

Guest commentator (whoever it is) definitely wants QPR to win

[McNamara That Ghost...]

1-1 HT.

[Thierrymon]

RVP's shot saved, but he was offside. Regardless his finishing has lacked little bit sharpness lately.

Maybe he has decided to sign a new contract with us so he is not trying so hard anymore.

1-1 ht

[hymppi]

looks like we woke up eventually.

[Master Splinter]

Playing poorly but drawing.

Sign of third-placers tbh.

[WMUG]

Loftus road.

http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lnwltqhA7R1qzj7lm.png

[Özil's Panoramic View]

Hope Ramsey is not sent back on the pitch for the 2nd half

Ox or Benayoun even Gervs is a better option right now

[Thierrymon]

http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lnwltqhA7R1qzj7lm.png

Jus needs hair and you got dirk kuyt.

[Syn]

Normally a fan of the cokehead but Rosicky has to be subbed off. Has had an awful game today. Cost us a couple of goals by not playing it through to Van Persie at the right time - one of them was a very easy one, Robin would've been in one-on-one.

Well taken goal by Theo. I was convinced he'd put the rebound over but good control under pressure.

I don't think QPR can keep this up for another 45 mins. Well, they started to tire in the last 10. They were pressing at crazy levels at the start. Too much sloppy play from our defence and midfield.

I'd put Ramsey in the middle, take Rosicky off and put Oxlade on, and punt out wide. The fact that all our play goes down the right makes it easier to defend against.

But nothing but a 69th minute Gervinho on for Ramsey is on the cards.

[Syn]

Koscielny is amazing. Second time he's saved our arse now.

[Thierrymon]

Gibbs close with a header.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Gibbs header wide. I thought it was in. :lol:

[hymppi]

syn, you really need to do the game predictions again.
sometimes i miss the old GW.
when i'm drunk.
like now.
sniff.

[Özil's Panoramic View]

seems like AW pat the lads on the back and said, "good 1st half lads"

they're not looking any sharper thus far

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Vermaelen. :lol:

Good freekick guys.

[Dennis Bendtner]

The Vermaelen free-kick routine will never work. Don't bother.

[Özil's Panoramic View]

finally! this is like the 3rd time Taiwo has handled the ball

[Thierrymon]

Rvp misses 1 on 1.

[Özil's Panoramic View]

holy f***, how RVP not score there

[Master Splinter]

RVP :doh:.

[Ralpheroo72]

The man with the golden Oxmust come on

[Thierrymon]

Rvp limping?

[hymppi]

song's amazing passing continues. shame the 'keeper saved.

[Marc Overmars]

RVP. :lol:

He's lost it.

[Dennis Bendtner]

Tony GHEL is a fucking moron.

[Özil's Panoramic View]

Arteta being bullied

i think he should stay in around QPR's 18 yrd

[Thierrymon]

This co- commentator is always full of so much shit. Loves the sound of his own voice.

[hymppi]

what ws verm so angry about???

[Ralpheroo72]

joey barton is a ****

[Thierrymon]

what ws verm so angry about???

Think he is frustrated cos he isnt having his best game and he knows it.

[Thierrymon]

Ffs2-1

[McNamara That Ghost...]

2-1.

Vermaelen. :doh:

[Dennis Bendtner]

Vermaelen :doh: :(

[Özil's Panoramic View]

Verm again

[Master Splinter]

Vermaelen has had a shocker.

[hymppi]

fuck. vermaelen is fucking things up today.

[Injury Time]

joey barton is a ****
no way hes just a misunderstood english legend...

[hymppi]

Think he is frustrated cos he isnt having his best game and he knows it.
:(
innit.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

what ws verm so angry about???

Does not have the right to be angry today.

[gunnerrrrr]

Sub time, get Ramsey off the fucking pitch

[Özil's Panoramic View]

WTF is this, some ppl who have never scored a goal in their lives, doing so against us

our midfield with the exception of Song has been shit all game.....

[GP]

Need a goal, get Chamakh on.

[gunnerrrrr]

WTF is this, some ppl who have never scored a goal in their lives, doing so against us

our midfield with the exception of Song has been shit all game.....
aka Ramsey completely unbalances the midfield and we lose our width...fucking playing shit football that lad

[Dennis Bendtner]

Gervinho for Ramsey, 69 minutes! :haha:

[Olivier's xmas twist]

aka Ramsey completely unbalances the midfield and we lose our width...fucking playing shit football that lad

The whole team has been as bad as each other today.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Gervinho on for Ramsey, bang on 69 minutes. :haha:

Syn. :bow:

[Thierrymon]

Gervinho on for ramsey.

[Dennis Bendtner]

But nothing but a 69th minute Gervinho on for Ramsey is on the cards.

That is sensational.

[Thierrymon]

Gervinho on for Ramsey, bang on 69 minutes. :haha:

Syn. :bow:

Wenger was reading goonersweb at HT. Thats why he was late for the second half.

[Dennis Bendtner]

Song falls over :doh: :lol:

[gunnerrrrr]

The whole team has been as bad as each other today.
no they havent

[Thierrymon]

Qpr have parked the bus.

[Marc Overmars]

Ugh, losing to this shower of shit.

Come on Arsenal.

[Dennis Bendtner]

Our left side has been terrible.

[GP]

The fuck :doh:

[gunnerrrrr]

how the fuck does Oxo not get a game...fuck off Wenger

[Master Splinter]

RPQ have played decently, but we've made them look a thousand times better with amateur sloppiness all over the pitch.

Koscielny is carrying the whole defence and midfield.

[gunnerrrrr]

agree about Kos...huge player for us

[Özil's Panoramic View]

i hope to see the Wenger polls red hot with activity even if we manage a draw here

how hard can it be to pick ur most form players as a 1st 11

[hymppi]

that taarabt bloke has been good for them.
but, nothing like gervinho's screamer in 84 mins.
:getcoat:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Arteta off, Oxocube on.

Gibbs off, Chakma on. :doh:

[Dennis Bendtner]

Christ, it's Chamakh.

Oxo too.

[Master Splinter]

Chamakh coming on :bow:.

[GP]

Chamakh the pitch up!

[Thierrymon]

Smack head and ox on for gibbs and arteta.

[gunnerrrrr]

i hope to see the Wenger polls red hot with activity even if we manage a draw here

how hard can it be to pick ur most form players as a 1st 11
not hard unless you have moronic moments like Wenger

[Marc Overmars]

Chakma is on?

Lol. Game over.

[Thierrymon]

Lol @ me for staying up til 3 am to watch this.

[Ralpheroo72]

garbage today, we havent shown up

[gunnerrrrr]

Chakma is on?

Lol. Game over.
was over from the moment Wenger decided Ramsey on the left was a good idea

[Dennis Bendtner]

Barton shot saved.

QPR goal looking a lot more likely.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Why do teams try and keep it in the corner of the pitch with five minutes of normal time to go? :lol:

[Globalgunner]

was over from the moment Wenger decided Ramsey on the left was a good idea

Was over thr moment he decided to play Ramsey. All our shit performances have coincided with him iin the team. even though everyone has been crap today. Arsenal...We always have a crap performace like this in us on any given day.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

No scores from other games, thanks.

[Dennis Bendtner]

Song has stunk it out.

[Master Splinter]

Song's chipped balls :rose:.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Four added minutes.

[Özil's Panoramic View]

this is painful

[hymppi]

breaks my heart to lose to a shit team with an effortless arsenal side.
no passion today. fuckers.

[gunnerrrrr]

Oxo has done more in 5 mins than Ramsey did all game

[McNamara That Ghost...]

2-1 FT. Shit.

[Marc Overmars]

Welcome back Arsenal.

[hymppi]

Oxo has done more in 5 mins than Ramsey did all game
this, what a tool AW is.

[Master Splinter]

Worst.

Match.

Ever.

[Özil's Panoramic View]

Wenger OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!

entire match Ramsey and Rosicky cancelled out each other

we might well have started with 9 players

[Ralpheroo72]

worst performance in a very long time

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

:bow: wenger knows :bow:

[Özil's Panoramic View]

he doesn't seem to 'know' the exit :ilt:

[Fats]

Was over thr moment he decided to play Ramsey. All our shit performances have coincided with him iin the team. even though everyone has been crap today. Arsenal...We always have a crap performace like this in us on any given day.

Yup Ramsey ain't gonna be the player we all thought he would be. I wouldn't put him on the bench. I'd loan him out for a season to some lowly ****s where he has to work hard. Incredible to think he is an international player.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

Yup Ramsey ain't gonna be the player we all thought he would be. I wouldn't put him on the bench. I'd loan him out for a season to some lowly ****s where he has to work hard. Incredible to think he is an international player.

Yeah but look at the country he plays for not really world beaters lol.

[Niall_Quinn]

Chakma is on?

Lol. Game over.

:gp:

[Syn]

That is predictable.

I concur.

WUMger has been on fire recently. Been pulling out all the classics in the press conferences, too.
