Yeah Song is good at the Synical stuff.
Apparently Frimpong gave Nasri a tshirt with BENCH written on it
:haha:
:haha: I hope that is true.

funniest rumour i heard was nasri threw a punch at frimpong and then ran away to the dressing room. probably cos he was so scared frimpong would eat him alive
We lost, it's no big surprise and to be fair they have got one hell of a squad, I am riled by the attitude that 4th place is everything though, that's been the case for years and unfortunately with thinking like that success is unlikely.
To make the step forward we need to get a taste for success, perhaps winning a trophy is the only way, the policy of settling for 4th place just isn't one I subscribe to.
I hope Oxo gets some game time, he's such an exciting player and makes things happen.
Did you watch the match?? :unsure:
We were excellent, were the better team, and but for a decent back up striker, we would have beaten them, with our second string / kids.
They had 60 million worth of strikers on the pitch and some cunt called Nasri. Who posed us no real problems at all.
This squad is far better than last year. It's a team, who are fighting for each other for a change. You should be proud.
No didn't watch it, but at the end of the day I expected us to lose so it's no big surprise.
Good to hear we're showing some fighting spirit though, the striker issue has been there for a while, we've been linked with that Sow guy who has a decent goal record, remains to be seen if we sign him though.
Whilst results have certainly improved recently, it's really at the business end of the season where we have always found it tough, it will be interesting to see how we get on there.
Not sure what my expectations are of this season, the CL is beyond us IMO, as is the league, that leaves the FA Cup but I can see us not taking that totally seriously.
I guess our ultimate aim will be 4th place which seems achievable (not too bad considering where we were at the start of the season) as Chelsea are awful, do think Spurs will finish above us this year though.
Still think Wenger should move on at the end of the season though, but I doubt it will happen.
It is hard to take seriously someone who just looks at the result of a game to form an opinion of the team he supports.
I really don't know how it will turn out this year. At the moment, we are playing as a unit. And that is good to see.
The problem will come with fatigue and injuries to key personnel; But one would hope we have some decent cover as it is. We've been playing with 3 full backs injured, and still looked a million times better in defence. All the CB's are doing a job, and in midfield we have balance, workrate, and also intellegence.
We have Wilshire to come back, Sagna should be back soon too. Coquellin (sp) really looks a decent player (enough to challenge Song IMO) and Frimmers looks like he's getting better too (and he has heart).
Jenko has done an outstanding job as an understudy, and we'll have him back soon too.
What we need is another creative midfielder / game changer, and a quality back up striker. We're becomming difficult to beat at the moment; But we do need more up top for games like Fulham and City, where there wasn't that someone to change a game.
For me Chamahk is finished, and I think Arshavin will be on his way too.
From where we started, I think Wenger has done an excellent job with this team, and deserves credit for it. He must continue with this though, and not revert back to his old ways. We need more cover, and we need to spend in January.
Wtf are you talking about?
Seriously you need help.
Lets start at the beginning so even an idiot like you can understand.
Zimm said he was riled that 4th place is everything for Wenger. You asked who said that. I posted a quote from Wenger saying that and you have gone in to a mental period.
Simples
What do I want him to do?
Stop with the 4th place is all important BS, noone but the money men gives a toss about that. Not much chance of me moaning if we won the competition is there seeing as we're out :lol:
Moreover I've always said a trophy is important even if it's only the CC cup so you really are spouting nonsense.
I never said we would, I just said I expected us to lose anyway but that the attitude that 4th place is what matters annoys me.
We've got no chance in the league, so that's not our aim, 4th place is just like it is every year, it's just about money nothing else.
Coming 4th isn't challenging for the title, in fact we're not challenging we're miles behind as well.
He's always content with 4th, he was last year and the year before and for years before that and will be next year and the year after that. It'll never change. 4th place is what the whole club is happy with, it's about money we're never going to win the CL or the league as we don't really invest...if 4th was a stepping stone that would be fine, 6 years suggests it's not.
You have to face the facts here, we're not looking to build, we're settling for 4th.
:haha:
Not diagreeing with you at all, i just assumed you meant the attidude of posters on here as no one was downbeat about going out the cc. IMO the aim for this season is to finish 4th, i do think we need to win the Fa cup to keep RVP whether we will or not is a diffrent issue.
