Adebayor .

Robinho .

Even Chamakh was better value for money than those pub-teamers.

Who gives a shit about City and what they do with their money? Spending someone else's money doesn't equal ambition. But applauding a club with no ambition to win silverware, brings in record profits yet refuses to spend the money generated by the fans equals something else. And it's not as if the fans haven't been calling for this club to show some ambition in the transfer window and to stop selling off our best players.

What's the score city? What's the score?

A billion spent by your lot, and we make profits in the transfer window and we didn't just beat you, we ran you off the pitch. Some city fans here will just have to live with the fact they lost. Get over it.

Your greedy, selfish, money grabbing, traitorous, absolutely classless bastard Tevez has just scored a hat-trick (now that he fancies playing footie instead of golf) - so cheer the fuck up. There are positives, it's not just about being schooled by the Arsenal. Maybe the lessons learned as you were thoroughly thrashed in every department will serve the next gang of mercenaries well when they join in the summer, that's if they are still around by the time they play us.

well we all know arsenal fans are the most self-righteous about.

its at its ugliest when you see tippy-tappy nothing players like nasri, ramsey and arshavin getting sucked off at the expense of more productive players like walcott due to sheer football snobbery. but maybe thats changing for the better.

It's no more self-righteous than calling it 'tippy-tappy'.

its tippy-tappy when it achieves dikk all bar titilating some plums. nasri was called world class here and he wasnt a proper player. ramsey escaped criticism for the longest while walcott/gervinho took all the blame even though hes was by far the weakest player in the team.

out of snobbery people automatically associate any airy-fairy technique based style with the genuine quality possessed by players like xavi and iniesta. even fabregas is proving hes not on that level.

I think accusing people of snobbery is a bit self-righteous. Mind you, you aren't the only one guilty of that.

And you're overtly criticising them for whatever style of football it might be that those players play. You sound just as high and mighty on here at times. Y'know like when you career in to a thread because Robinho happened to score two goals against us and then smirk at people who might have rated him as inferior to someone else.

you can actually spot arsenal fans a mile off, heres something I saw yesterday in the f365 mailbox:

Style Over Substance
Ah , Banister9, yes you are the only person who thinks CRonaldo is the best player on the planet. He's not even the best player in Spain. He's the ultimate flat track bully - a player built to humiliate weaker teams but who disappears completely in the big stakes games. He's Ivan Drago to Rocky Balboa.

You claim he's capable of 'everything that Lionel Messi simply couldn't do through either imagination or simple genetics'. Utter nonsense. Messi can do everything CRonaldo can do except Messi can do it in spite of his well-documented physical limitations. You talk about imagination? Messi has scored goals from impossible angles, deft little chips and powerful shots. CRonaldo does the same thing over and over and over again. That's because CRonaldo is the choice of the superficial football fan. The person who favours style over substance. The kind of human being who'd rather watch Ashley Young or Nani showboating rather than Scholes dictate a game. The kind of idiot who thinks that Bergkamp wasn't the greatest player to grace the English Premier League.
N O'Reilly (There will only ever be one Ronaldo and he played for Brazil)

an idiot for thinking superior players to bergkamp are superior (henry, ronaldo etc)

cronaldo style over substance hoiw many goals does he suggest he scores?

now whats not to mock about a person with such aloof, thick opinions as that? they deserved to be teased and ostracized from society.
