Official Gooners Thread - A New Hope

[ross4life]

Walcott scores 2 goals against mediocre opposition . . . could he be the new Chicarito/Mexican Pelé. . .

In the last 5 months Javier Hernández has scored v Chelsea,Valencia,France,Spain,Netherlands & Argentina yes very mediocre opposition 

Wrong thread, anyway he is a poor man's Vela...by the way that goal against Chelese was just a deflection of him...

All goals count! i just hope he's not another Vela & his goals per games for Mexico would suggest he's not

Arsenal stale so far. West Ham playing well.

[ONeill]

Arsenal could well lose this. 0-0 after 53. The Hammers surprisingly composed on the ball.

Crying out for Wally and Bender.

[ONeill]

Walcott for Denilson 66 mins. 0-0.

[ONeill]

Walcott beats the keeper but not the post. 0-0 72 mins.

[ONeill]

Bendtner on for Arshavin. 79 mins.

West Ham have defended brilliantly.

[ONeill]

0-0 86 mins.

Rob Green having a stormer.

[Ludraman]

det got 1 but so did chelsea who will win de leage anyway. no?

[ONeill]

Song scores 88 mins.

[Dinny Breen]

Very dogged display from West Ham but they lack creativity in the last 3rd. Super game from Parker.

Good result though, Cesc who was patchy today reflected the team performance. Looks like Clichy is finally finding some form too...

[ONeill]

Phew! Some relief that goal. Song seems to be popping up like that. Chelsea would've been 7 ahead already. Need to keep pace and bate them at Ashburton.

Agree about Cesc and, at last, Clichy.

[Carmen Stateside]

Couple of great saves from Green in the first half kept the hammers in it for so long.

[ONeill]

And another Black November begins.

Arsenal 2-1 down to Shaktar at HT. Brilliant Henry-esque goal from Walcott put the Gunners one up. Eduardo, class as always, puts his crowd ahead in injury time, doesn't celebrate.


Clichy being the dick.

[ONeill]

Clichy at fault for that. Poor games from Eastmond and Bendtner.

Hopefully the fellows resting at home will make it worthwhile against the Toon.
