match reaction v chelsea

[Power n Glory]

He probably has, and he should be.
Dein said they go out for dinner after home games unless they've lost because he's no company then.
I get the impression that some on here don't think he cares but of course he does.

Whatever he says at any press conference will get twisted and turned into bullshit headlines, I'd rather he get on with picking us up and preparing for the next game.

The papers will do what they do but with another no show, I'm actually wondering if Wenger has had a breakdown, meltdown, walked out on the job....we just don't know and it's not good. The usual bullshit headlines could be spun into something ridiculous.

Rewatch the goals and how he struggles to stay with his runners. I think the 4th goal was the clearest example. It's not made up and your delusional if you think he's a quick player.

You said he doesn't have legs - in the terminology of the game that means he can't stand the pace and can't cover the ground. It has nothing to do with being quick - you just changed the whole angle of the criticism by bringing pace into it. He's not the quickest, neither is he the slowest on the team. But in terms of having legs, he's the best in the squad.

Sort yourself out. That's not even worth the effort.

Bloody Hell do you hear yourself. Being quick and pace afre not the same thing? Now YOU are just making up stuff. He doesnt have legs means he cant keep up a high tempo for a long time in a game. Not able to repeatedly chase runners, Not able to make up ground. Yours really is a sad case of 1 upmanship. You simply cant lose an argument. Stop trying to browbeat people into submission and watch the bloody game. Arteta cant chase after anybody. Not without holding on for dear life. He is 32 going on 33 and he was never quick. T Rosicky on the other hand is the same age but has more pace.

He may be technically better than Flamini but not at the things a DM needs to do which is intercept passes, chase attackers and hold off other midfielders.

Next thing you'll be telling us that Usain Bolt is fast but hes not quick

Thank you!

Simple response when you don't have anything else. Having the legs is about endurance, not speed. We both know and maybe you were originally referring to speed or quickness but that's not what you said. You said he didn't have legs which is obviously not the case. He routinely covers the most ground of any squad member and usually any opponent. So he does have legs, good ones. And he's also our most efficient and accurate passer of the ball. The idea he's a shit player is self evidently ludicrous and anyone who tries to push that argument is equally ludicrous.

I imagine Wenger's read this place, realised Zim and fakeyank would do a much better job than him and done the honourabke thing and made way for them.

And you're a wanker riding on the coattails of PnG, pissed because some posters here won't throw their rattles and it has started to make you look like an arse. Oneupmanship? You mean in the race to call your own manager everything under the sun? I wouldn't dream of trying to compete with you in that particular competition, you win. But funnily enough, yes, "...have legs means he cant keep up a high tempo for a long time in a game. Not able to repeatedly chase runners, Not able to make up ground." That's what I said, PnG is talking about him not being quick. Entirely different things and without being able to figure it for yourself you're agreeing with me on the definitions. Obviously not in terms of how they are applied to Arteta because to say he can't keep up with the tempo of the game or repeatedly chase runners in pure bollocks. Now whether he catches the runners he's chasing - different matter entirely. Bottom line - learn to read.

Zim and Yank are at the tail end of the queue this time, plenty of others ahead of them with their claws out (after all that purring last week). It says something when Zim starts to appear balanced.

Another tennis score defeat. Good work lads.
