In whats been a pretty awful year for Arsenal, what would be the stand out moment?
Barca at home or chavs at home or away. /thread
3 pointless games, one of which wasnt even in 2011 :doh:
The game at the Bridge was far from pointless.
Has to be beating Barca or the 3-5 vs Chelsea. Take your pick.
It's the Barca win for me. Even though they were still favourites to overturn a 2-1 deficit, the manner in which we got the win will always stick, pure joy.
Just went through a list of all our matches in 2011 and yeah has to be beating Barcunts. Not many contenders tbh. I didnt watch the 5-3 at Chavs so missed all the excitement and just isnt the same watching it after already knowing the result
In the Barca home and away tie, although we were knocked out, we had a chance to draw the tie and win on away goals. OK, it didn't happen, but what was important was that although they had most of the ball, there is the potential to beat them. We were closer to knocking them out than manu were to winning at the end. And out current team is better this year.
However......
My favourite is the 3-5 win away at chavs because that was the game showing that our improvement in form was not just a flash in the pan. We still have a way to go - a couple more players to buy - but that win would have helped the mentality of the squad, as well as giving the supporters the chance to put up two fingers to gloating chavs, at least for a while.
I'd pick the match at the Bridge, mainly because it made me feel like we were top dawg in London once again. The Satisfaction from that lasted longer than the barca game for me.
Szczesny.
And the many zones Wenger has invented.
Surely if youre picking a player then it has to be RVP?
