RVP - best striker in the world
Shows you how much we need another RVP in this side.
As ever, Striker needed.
Watched the beat down at Old Trafford so I have no idea what happened in this.
RVP. :bow:
That is all.
Excellent game from Gervinho - nice to have a winger that can beat players consistently, and a well taken goal too. (tm)
Kos and Song also had excellent games. I thought Arteta was much more involved and took risks worth taking. Had it not been for a dodgy freekick leading to their goal (and a clearcut penalty for us), we'd have won that even more comfortably.
Very good performance - that 15 mins spell around about the time Van Persie came on was as good as we've played for a long time. The passing was quick and accurate.
Twat, good to see Arsenal supporters giving more of a shit about their rivals!Quote:

Gervinho played well, you can see so much difference in quality between him and Walcott. Walcott needs to be dropped and either Park or AOC to start
Dont you mean 3?Quote:

So yeah, fuck off. :good:
RvP is the biz. Bad decision by Wenger to leave him out, Chamakh was (of course) utter shit. Walcott was slightly worse. Both these players are a total waste of space and we played the first 70 minutes with 9 men. It showed. Once we got our top players on the pitch it was all over. Vital win and we battled well for the second time in as many weeks to hang on to the lead, good stuff. Highly encouraging from Gervinho who was a lot less wasteful today. Defence did okay, Chesney was the weakest link today with some barmy decision making. But we had enough to keep the dreadful Stoke kick and rush, lump it long and chuck and hope "game" at bay.
More progress but Wenger still can't help tinkering and risking derailment.
Ref was an utter, utter, utter, cock.
Yeah, long defended him, but he's been poor since the CL qualifiers.Quote:

Didn't watch this but good result and RVP once again the star.
Clearly when he leaves next summer we're going to be totally f*cked.
That won't stop me, call your lawyer if you want, it won't make any difference.Quote:

Totally right, it's a joke to leave your best striker out when the rest are utterly sh*t, it would be more understandable if we had adequate cover from players who can score goals and are quality, we don't so shocking decision by Mr Clueless...he's just lucky his star man got him out of jail.Quote:

On and upwards Arsenal
Gerv showed us what he can do for a whole game today, as we had only seen glimpses till now. . .good buy
Kos and Merts plsyed well together as well, we can complain about their goal but it was extremely well worked and a number of teams would have been caught out too.
Wenger saying we are better at set pieces was obviously referring to convential ones. . .a few more training sessions for the half dozen brain cells our defence possesses for more advanced fks.
RvP is the man but we so clearly have no ther option up front in the role Wenger insists using every game, Chamak held up play well a few times but his strikers instinct is about as alive as a T-Rex.
Wouldn't got that far, there's a fair few players vying for that position of best in the world.Quote:

We've got a lot of games coming up and our squad is going to be tested to the limit.
Think we were short without RvP. . . .I am still ready to give Chamak a chance but not in this formationQuote:

Has Christmas come early?
Can't wait for MOTD 2.
Gervinho: 5 crosses - 2 assists.
Walnut: 3 crosses - area 51, row 27,28,29. :coffee:
Time to give Oxlade a chance.Quote:

Don't care about those guys, RVP is the best.Quote:

I like Arsgavin more central and at the moment gets the nod over Theo

I wont give Theo a starting place in 4-4-2 (Arshavin is better in the middle anyway), let alone 4-3-3. :coffee:Quote:

No - doesn't count. You can't just make it up or repeat made up stuff, it has to be a genuine SynQuote. Shocker for you! On the other hand, Excellent game from Gervinho - nice to have a winger that can beat players consistently, and a well taken goal too.Quote:

Good win against a formidable ref. Any chance Stoke had came from him giving them soft free kicks.
Koscielny and Mertesacker looking good together. Arteta still unimpressive. Ramsey much improved. Song very good again.
Djourou not causing a disaster for two games in a row is the biggest plus.
Chamakh and Walcott anonymous. Oxface and Gervinho on the wings is the way forward. Arshavin is a useful sub.
RVP :bow:.
Gervinho :bow:.
Arsenal :bow:.
Good win, on to Chelsea tbh
Looking forward to Chelsea now, with a bit of confidence in a bag you never know. :popcorn:
