Official Gooners Thread - A New Hope

Yes, hilarious.  Georgie Graham's teams didn't defend so much as refuse to attack (in a structured way), so I have no admiration for that kind of display.

It's probably safe from morons to discuss it here - I thought Arsenal 0-0 Chelsea was a better game than Manure 4-4 Everton.  The defending in the latter was awful - Manure will come to realise they lost 2 points here by not showing Darron Gibson the respect he deserved; he ran the show in midfield for long periods.  Utd will come to woe the pitiful midfield they are currently fielding - depending on a self-retired 36-yr-old to drag them to respectability.  They would have lost today had Everton one defender in the class of Vermaelen, Koscielny, Cahill or Terry.

Is this the same Koscielny who cost Arsenal the league cup last year and helped keep Utd to 8 goals earlier in the season? I'll keep Jagileka,Heitinga and Distin ( mistake last week aside).

I wasn't proposing to take them off you.

Koncielny is fast becoming the most important defensive player at the Emirates.

Good signing for ye Gooners I think.

Lukas Podolski to sign for Arsenal: "The move to Arsenal provides a great opportunity for me to gain experience in international competitions at a top European club.

"I have made this decision not against FC Cologne but for this great opportunity and the good of my own individual development. This was not an easy decision for me at all, as Cologne, our fans and the city are something special for me. I will always carry FC Cologne in my heart. We need to pool our strengths now and have to be fully focused on our survival in the Bundesliga."

This is a great chance for Arsenal to sneak in and lift the title.

Agreed, both mid-table teams with nothing to play for.

Sorta hoping it'll be done and dusted on Sunday night. Spuds away to a Villa fighting for their lives. Newc v Man City.
