He was always feisty, a take no shit and prisoners type of player, excellent addition to the team. Merte, Kos and Vermaelen have always been somewhat docile, Flam adds a steely edge.Originally Posted by Bumble

Ouch.
Chortle
Squawka is claiming that Flamini had a 100% tackle success rate against Napoli, as well as a 96% pass completion success rate! Don't know if that's completely accurate or not (I can't imagine he went the whole game without fouling anyone, unless fouls count as successful tackles?), but even if they're a few percent out, it's still impressive.
Another interesting stat from Le-grove this morning - apparently we've only lost 1 of the last 34 games we've played with Flamini in the side...
What was the game?
Liverpool in the CL? Can't remember us losing many in the league that season.
Yeah that Liverpool game was his last match for us as he went off injured. We only lost 3 league games that season but bombed in the last 3 months.
I'm sure he synically chopped someone down against Napoli so that 100% tackle rate is probably not true. It brought about some hearty laughter from the GHELs I was sitting with.

It's better to burn out, than to fade away.
This season is 10 years since the Invincibles. Now that really makes me feel old.
My mate who's a teacher always tells his kids about how good Arsenal were as they have little recollection of the pre-Emirates era and have grown up thinking we were always shite...
Damn , remember jumping around when Feo done that run for the cunt
How the fuck has it gone so fast ? Can't believe we got another world cup round the corner aswell .
