Match Reaction v Leeds

[Olivier's xmas twist]

damm you get excited easily

[Cripps_orig]

On a side note, I love how Becks always comes to watch us. One of his lads is a Gooner.

The squad should learn a lot being in the presence of greats like Beckham and Henry.

We should try get him

The one Manc player i never truly hated from that all conquering late 90s/early 00s team

Just shows the value of being so sure with your first touch and composed with the finish. There's nothing uncertain about what he's planning to do. Defenders know it, goalkeepers know it. But the precision is what sets him apart.

Even without Henry's precision, Walcott and Gervinho could score a lot of goals if they had Henry's confidence and composure. Control the ball, pick your spot, aim to hit it. None of this keep running to the byline and squaring shit. You have to back yourself. I hope that's what players like Walcott, Ramsey and Wilshere take from playing with Henry.

His positioning and the run as well. Made the option simple for Song. Great touch and a cool finish. They need to release a new Henry DVD titled 'I am legend'. The man needs his own theme song. Walking legend.

[Japan Shaking All Over]

You fucking what?

Woke up at 5am to check scores, 0:0 and Coq off injured.

Woke up again at to see that the Leg known as Thierry Henry had not only scored but had won us the game, cant wait to see this. . .

Two things havent changed I dont thinl

1) Henry still knows how to score and

2) Joker still posts like a tit (havent watched the game so he may be right about the performane but jeez geez I dont think I have ever seen you positive anything positive or at least something thst you havent taken a dig at something or somebody!)

The King is back all hail the king!

Genuine strikers score goals. It beggars belief why we pursue with wankers like Chamakh when we've been crying out for another quality striker since the great man left in the first place!

[Grebbo]

Henry



That is all.


Other than: full back positions are cursed, Arshavin played well and worked hard and Ramsey has a lot of the ball but doesn't really do much with it. When the fuck is Wilshere back?!!!

It was a good game to watch but not very exciting . Easy to understand that due to the fact was Leeds is a championship team and Arsenal had some inexperienced but very promising players such as Chamberlain , Yennaris , Miquel ..etc.. and plus how can you expect a great game when squillaci is on the pitch ? Isn't it being a bit naive ? But the introduction of Thierry Henry , his goal , his celebration , the reaction of the fans were the biggest moment of the game . It shows Henry hasn't lost his boots and his passion yet.It brought back all the good memories during his Arsenal time . It was really emotional . One of the games true Arsenal fans will remember for ever .

[LDG]

Bloody brilliant.

Exactly right, I think. This also applied to Bendtner. Our strikers are getting into scoring positions and snatching at it, or bottling it and passing. It is one of those success breeds success things, the reason why manu have performed so well. If we can get on a run of wins which includes several members of the team scoring, then we have a chance to get into the so-called winning mentality - the belief that having got the ball you can put it in the net so often that you are not worried about failure. This is why something like the CC or FA Cup can be significant. I'm with Wenger in thinking that the PL and CL are the main objectives - preferably winning them - but like a lot on GW, I think that getting a trophy under our belt would lift the team by giving them the confidence boost they need to translate that into scoring when they get the chances.
