First of all i would like to appologise for not writing since the Carling Cup, but the performance
following, vs Hull, was heartbreaking, it was the worst performance in a long time and Arsenal
lacked desire. Hull didnt.
After the Hull match our Gunners thrashed Porto with a stunning 4-0 win, and could have scoredmany
more.
We had barely digested Saturday's match before it was time for another epic performance. This time
Sheffield United were to be ridiculed by Arsenal's youngest team ever in the Carling Cup. The
average age was merely 18 years and 6 months and the oldest player on Arsenal's side was Lukas
Fabianski at the age of 23.
Welcome back fellow Gooners, it has been a while but now I am ready to give you news and post match
analysis of Arsenal's fixtures. I would like to start off with a personal boast, saying that this
summer I managed to meet the French National team during their visit to play Sweden in a friendly.
As you know, many of our present and former players are in the French squad.
It was always gonna be a weaker Arsenal side on display with nothing to play for, but man, what a
terrible performance... The to-some-extent-carling-cup-team had troubles passing the ball around
and in the first 65-70 minutes never looked dangerous.
Today's game was probably the least entertaining Arsenal game I've ever seen.
Well the game just finished 6-2 and we can all agree on that before we took the lead, the game was
a bit nervy. Our "Carling cup team" showed their quality... And why we need to buy more
players... The defence looked terrible, gallas and song need to be replaced.
So we won. You may wonder why i am so critical towards todays side.
Good Morning Gooners,
After yesterday's result, the title race is still on. Anyone can still win the league! Manchester
United and Chelsea are the main horses in this race, but believe it or not, Arsenal can still win!
It implies a lot of "ifs and buts" but its possible! Today the top looks:
Man Utd - 81
Chelsea - 81
Arenal - 74 (game in hand)
Man U have hammers in the next round, and West ham have Won the last 3 meetings against united.
Well, to all gooners, you've probably already seen them but here they are again! the unofficially
announced new kits for 08/09. I think they take some getting-used-to. You are welcome to comment!
Well, the season is coming to an end for the Arsenal, and what a season It's been. We dominated
English football for 6 months, but it wasn't enough. Everybody is looking at next season, hoping
for new signings, others are worried about the effect Flamini and Hleb's departure would have.
Having said that i would like to mention the chant "we're [Arsenal FC] by far the greatest
team the world has ever seen," any player would happily replace these two, and im sure
replacing the two who have been important for arsenals pace and passing this season, wont be a
problem.
