Or unlucky to get one if we go by Wenger's definition of quality.Quote:

attacking wise, this team looks good. the players are linking better, making better runs. podolski as a striker doesnt work. hes too static, whereas with giroud up front, there was a lot more movement, creating space for others. Theo, Ox, Ramsey all had great games today and so did Koscienly,
we played what i imagine to be the starting team against villa, maybe rosicky in for Jack. Citys starting eleven was close to their best too i think, although they didnt play aguero. i think there is a lot we can take from this game, the current players are good, they just need that extra quality brought in like suarez to really push on. we need spaces filled on the bench too rather then youngsters. signing someone like gustavo does that, if he starts we can have ramsey/jack/arteta on the bench, and if he doesnt, hes on the bench. thats a much better option to have then we do currently. we played city and beat them one week before the season. thats a good sign. need to up the level v villa as usual but this team, with added quality have the makings of a trophy winning side. I cant wait for the new season, as usual i think we will win something this year. Either way, its going to be a long and bumpy ride but real football is back in a week, im going to be at the Emirates and i cant fucking wait.
Red Army
Wenger
well he knows we dont have a big enough squad and has admitted it. suggests he will sign playersQuote:
"I think what is important is the strength of the squad. Today is one game. We want to play 55 games and we are maybe a bit thin squad-wise to go through a whole season"
Credit where its due, was a decent performance today. Ramsey, Theo and the back four were all superb. Ox and Weelshere looked sharper, and Giroud is looking good. Perez only played 20 minutes so too early to judge, but I loved his cynical hacking of one of their players.. we don't see that enough! Only player I was dissapointed with was Podolski, needs to get more involved.
As said by others though, we don't have a good squad. We have a good 15-16 players. That's not really the same thing. I hope this result doesn't blind Wenger to deficiencies of the squad.
who is Perez? 0_0

Good win
NQ :haha:
More importantly
Man City :haha:
Losing to a very poor Arsenal side
Pellegrini gone by August 17th?
so the team that spent 90 million scored 1 goal.
the team that has spent nothing. scored 3.
good summer so far then
Wenger :bow:
Erm no, it's Walcott.Quote:

What bs did you come out with this time to discredit him?
A short summary please. I'm a bit bored
watching the highlights
:blink: ramsey
was that really him who played that through ball for the first goal?
didnt think so. it was wilshere.
ramsey out
ramsey :bow:
what a goal :bow:
cant believe people want him gone, improving game by game and had a quality pre-season.
he's going to have a big season.
walcott :bow:
perfect weighted ball.
great finish from tongue although he didnt go with his usual celebration. maybe he's saving it for the season when he'll miss 2 yarders and pose for the gay mags in front of the north stand :bow:
dear god we need a new keeper.
fabianski fucking shite.
chesney fucking shite.
cesar £2m? world class keeper with wealth of experience.
ffs wenger sort it out
Cesar is available on a free
:doh: you gotta be kidding
wenger :haha:
Just seen the goals.
Not surprised by Theo's finish as he is that damn good but his assists were Bergkampesque. Simply awesome. Massive player for us. Keep him fit and in form and titles coming home.
Not all was perfect. Negredo making Kos look a weak ass bitch isn't good to see and I fear a return to the dark days for Kos of 7/7/10 to 3/3/13 where he was a bit shit.
Hoping he gets it out of his mind ASAP and goes back to the awesomeness he showed in the last 10 games of last season
As an unbiased and a reasonable gooner, how was Ramsey's performance?Quote:

Read on here that he's had a good pre season, I can't comment as I haven't seen any games bar the raping we got from Drogba. Hope he has. His injury can no longer be used as an excuse although some still use Diabys injury in 2006 to defend him now. I will name no names of course
Same squad that finished 20 points behind last season with no additions is suddenly very good. GW?.......No wonder Wenger wants to die and his rigormortis shell still be calling the shots from the bench. Too many suckers on here.
You need medication.Quote:
