Best sentence ever on GW?

How does someone with such a poor grasp of the english language come up with the word vainglorious?

I think so but we've spent so much time being Zimmed I've lost the plot & the whole of Wed - sorry I meant to say Tuesday's game

In brief, we lost, but it was a meaningless result as we didn't go out of the competition.

How in the world did you guys squeeze so many pages out of nothing? :lol: What happened to the match reaction? We might as well go back to the post match rating thread. We used to get a better level of discussion on individual performances and sparks better debates. You guys won’t have to round on Zim about games from last season! :lol:

They can't take differing opinions so they WUM.

I addressed your points and explained my point of view in most of my posts.
All you've done, as usual, is shift goalposts.

Nobody cares! Just move on. Maybe more people would get involved on here if there was actually something worthwhile discussing.

It’s really bad. There really isn’t a need to post in the match reaction thread half the time, so I see your point. Maybe a change of format would help.

F*ck off I haven't shifted any goalposts that's just your customary excuse and it's getting boring tbh!

What do you expect when your "different opinion" is "Arsenal is shit", you're on an Arsenal forum ffs. You should move over to glory glory, they probably have a thread were they would all agree with you.

We were largely sh*t last season to be honest but have been a lot better this season. Just because you support a team it doesn't make you blind to it's faults/weaknesses/performances.

I tell it like I see it I don't sugarcoat it so that people like it.

Anyway - back to the game. Can anyone explain Wumgers magical substituions. We go 2-1 down & replace Giroud with Bendtner, are we really more likely to score with that move. A tired Giroud is 10 times better than the Great Dane. Gnabbers's pace & directness was the better option & would have improved Giroud's goal chances but we decide to leave that move until the 88th minute.

Wenger's subs are often puzzling :shrug:
But he's made 50,000 of him in his career so who are we to reason why?

To be fair to the viking warrior :rolleyes: he scored a couple for Nordenswefinland so, however unlikely, it was a good shock move but it needed an immediate effect, once they'd stopped laughing at the hair it was game over, i had hoped he'd have put Gnabbers on as soon as Sir Jack went over on his ankle but...ho-hum.

I think he was just alluding to what Wenger has said before about substitutions. I think it was when he substituted AOC against Utd for Arshavin, and he was quoted as saying much the same thing.

It was a great shock move - trouble is, it shocked me far more than it did Dortmund

:lol:

Giroud seemed to be the one causing Dortmund the most problems, so maybe he thought having the two of them up there would create more?

I was more suprised that we went narrow again, after the success Cazorla and Ozil were having on the flanks....

It's how we conceded in the end, as we'd gone narrow and left a big 'ol channel down the left. Gibbs was caught, and the rest is history.

Agreed. When we go narrow it is essential for the full backs to push up & fill the void. However they both did it for the second goal & the rest is history - wouldn't mid so much if either of them could cross a ball.

That.

I am often puzzled by Wenger's subs, I guess he felt Giroud was flagging and Bendtner would add something although it shows up the lack of options up front if that's the best card you can play. :(

Theres not that much difference between Giroud and Bendtner. Ones a good player, the other is decent. There's certainly not much difference between a tired Giroud and a fresh Bendtner. Bendtner's problem was never ability but just the tendency to be a twat. He had looked decent in his latest few appearances, including scoring 2 goals against Italy.

I think he's OK but IMO if we want to be serious about competing at the very top level we want better options than that.
