Arsenal V Everton, FA Cup, 12:45 KO

[LDG]

You hit the nail on the head. 0-0 at home to Everton in the league was another bore fest.

Even when it was 1-1

They have genuine match winners some of the time. Toure was abject shit in that game until he swung a boot, nailed a do it 100 times score once fluke, and cunts like Jamie Redknapp whipped their knobs out and started thrashing and screaming. On other occasions though, their match winners have been conspicuously absent.

That's what matchwinners are, players that when you're not performing score a goal that turns a game, you might he nailed it and it's a fluke, I counter that by saying that's what big players do, we use to have some once upon a time.

I remember a cup final we played in where we dominated and a certain Michael Owen scored two goals in the last few minutes to deny us, he was a matchwinner at the time, it's not all about dominating possession and a game, players who can swing a boot and score a spectacular goal out of nowhere, or make a decisive run can often be the difference between winning and losing.

If you've got a group of players who hang their heads and think they've lost when things aren't going their way you're always going to find it hard to win, they have players who believe they can win even when the odds are against them, those are winners, it's true that money brought them to City, but it doesn't change the fact these players are game changers.

You say that but Wigan beat them last year, money doesn't always guarantee victory, heart and desire and sometimes luck earnt by stubborn defending and hard work triumphs.

Football isn't always about money, sometimes it's about the collective and the will to win.

In a one off game it is, of course, possible to beat the money cheats. You need a lot of luck though and it's getting harder and harder. Increasingly the billionaires are buying up more and more trophies. I'm increasingly less bothered about which billionaire beats which other billionaire to which trophies.

Negro, whatchu talkin' bout? Bruv, all my recent match threads have been Vins for us.

What am I talking about?

Honestly?........I don't know

I think we'll probably win this, I don't however think we'll win the cup, City winning the CC on Sunday will give them belief they can win this as well and they have a better team with genuine matchwinners, even when not playing well.

Personally, I see it a bit differently. My concern is that if we do get through to a final with Citeh, it will be our mentality rather than their skill that is the issue. If we really go for it from the get go we can damage them more than Sunderland did. Sunderland showed what happens to any team once they are got at - and should have scored another with an open goal begging, too.
