Did he stop to consider the interest of the fans? Like fuck. So why do the fans so readily support his interests? He jumped ship to play for our hated rivals. By default he's a ****.

No but that's not really down to him, he's looking after his career which is what players do. It's the manager and clubs job to look after the fans not the players, they're simply a product used to achieve a clubs goals.
We convinced him we weren't realistic about winning anything, which at his age probably tipped the balance no top footballer wants to end up with nothing to show for their career. He's been proved right, look at the shower of sh*t we put out and out transfer dealings.
If your wife says she wants to run off with your neighbour, do you let her go or do you bitch slap her and tell her to STFU because she's got a year left on her contract and she's your top goalscorer? If the answer is not the latter, you're more of a **** than her.
Or something.
You havent said whether you think he should have stayed at a club where he had won one trophy and where he was unlikely to win another. Its all very well calling him a **** but he has one career and we have been shit for 8 years now. I dont blame him. Also Im sure he hated the board as much as we do.
Fair enough, I don't blame the players anymore I blame the club and manager...they're the ones that let this happen time and time again and then feed us BS about competitiveness, transfer dealings etc
If they wanted things to change they'd try and do something about it.
I dont believe you really believe what you have said . Youre just playing devils advocate. You know very well that a top quality international player like him doesnt stay at a club forever just because he was injured previously and the club paid him. Its nonsense.
The 2-1 scoreline really flatters us I think. Lovely goal by Cathorla though. But seriously we have fuck all up front a midfield with no vision or real ability unless it's playing anther 3 yard pass, a defence that can't defend and one that seems to go out of it's way to give the opposition goals.
Good times.
Yeah the score did flatter us, Man U aren't that good but they were still streets ahead of us and should have had more.
That's definitely a troll face on RVP.
please put a NSFW label before you post something like that syn, I nearly threw up in my pint!
:lol:
Sorry.
Pretty happy with the 2-1. Should've been more like 5 but at least we did better than last season.
I think some fans are still stuck in 2004. This Arsenal team is no where near being successful so don't expect anything other than a defeat at old Trafford.
At least we didn't play well and lose. That's the worst feeling. I remember a few years ago we raped them one more than one occasion at OT and still lost.
Time to start fielding our strongest team in the C1 Cup.
Did anyone notice Jacks face when he shook hands with RVC? He grimaced and didn't look at him.
Woolfsnare. :bow:
Podolski has been absolute gash for weeks.
He's a very unlike Wenger signing. Poor movement, no pace, nothing but a good finisher.
Yeah he'll do all that because he's a fan like us.
He got sent off because he's still just a kid who's annoyed how easily we're getting beaten. His problem is he gives a shit. But more than that, I could see him getting frustrated because he doesn't have his little burst back. His mind is going faster than his legs are able to carry him at this stage. It's a horrible feeling when you know you're capable of a lot more but aren't able to deliver.
Felt sorry for Jack today.
Got to agree, he's been very poor....he can really only play up front but the guru Wenger has decided he's a winger......a position where the game totally passes him by.
Giroud has also been cr*p to be honest, a few decent touches here and there but rubbish in front of goal, he's got a couple goals now but that seems to have made no difference to his finishing....disappointing.
Oh how we miss RVP.
speaking of whom...

that's a straight red all day long
Let's not be childish and blame everyone for our silly and predictable defeat . Should we blame Santos for swapping his jersey with Robin ? No . these people are human beings . They have right to some relationship . Despite changing teams they can still be very good friends . The only culprit who gifted United victory is Wenger who never get hurt from all these years of torture in the hand of Manchester . Fans are hurt , upset , humiliated but our manager seems not to care one iota .
He saw how Santos struggle in a few games but decided to keep him in the line-up even though he had some better options . Sagna could have kept his right side and Jerkinson to the left and vice-versa . Or Koscielny ( Rb) and Sagna (LB) . Or Coquelin at the right and Sagna at the left .
Walcott had a very good game against Ready and Wenger had the luxury of leaving our best finisher in the expense of Ramsey , a midfielder who is struggling to play at his natural position and play him as a winger .
All those kinds of wrong decisions can give the opposition a chance to win easily .
Another problem we have is a low confidence from our players in big games . They always panic and look like boys in front of men . We need three players with a strong mentality like Gallas . Even 3 thugs a la Joey Barton would be good for us . Otherwise , we will always be second best in big games . Which is pathetic for a team like Arsenal . Very sad indeed .
there is so much bullshit in there i dont know where to start.
1. snatos is a **** for swapping shirts. wait till the end of the fucking game, dont do it at half time. at half time your focus should be on how to improve and get back in the game, dont give a fuck about the opposition no matter who it is.
2. gallas has a strong mentality? yeah he showed that by crying in the centre circle during a game
3. joey barton? piss off
Santos is just here for a laugh. He knows he struck lucky getting to where he is. RVP was literally taking the piss out of him. Even before kick-off their embrace was like brothers reunited. RVP can just score a goal and no one gives a fuck. Santos will get burned 20 times and fall over. Best thing we could do is kick him out of the team - he'd definitely stick around for the rest of his contract and live life.
You must have misread what I wrote . Had we won the game , I don't think the swapping shirt would have hurt as much .
Gallas had a strong mentality and care more about winning . The so -called crying Show was only emphasized by the media .
I'm not suggesting we should sign Barton or Gallas . What I'm saying we need few players with strong mentality who can step up and take responsibility in big games .
