Poll: *Uefa Champions League Semi-final*- **Spoilers**
- Thread starter Tummy
- Start date
wtf is everyone going on about the fletcher crap? if you were standing where the ref was you'd have given a red. he wouldnt have played in the final - stop moaning ffs
If I was standing where the ref was I wouldn't have been 100% sure he DIDN't get the ball. Therefore wouldn't have given a penalty and denied an honest, hardworking model professional, the potentional to play in the biggest game of his career.
The ref was an idiot throughout the game.
Hargreaves DID fetch that - and he made a huge contribution to a successful EPL title and a CL win, so its you who needs the medication
So you value Thierry Henry and Wes Brown on a similar level?
You where talking about injuries in the last season or two - why is Henry so different?
If people want to split hairs then let them - but they both had injury ravaged seasons
how do you equate Henry with Hargreaves?
I've never seen Henry miss a whole season because of injuries either, never mind the fact he is in a whole different league to Hargreaves in terms of value.
Because players are valued on more than just their injury record.
Things like actual ability also come into effect.

gee i thought we (and everybody else who is still sane) were talking about present day values, lay off the kool aid son.
epic troll.sorry I must have imagined that Henry does have a spotless injury record
Because he's repeatedly come back and been a game winner. Consistently.
Wes Brown... puts in a decent shift, that's it.
Hargreaves, meanwhile, is class, but is also pushing that long-term level of injury that people won't want to take risks with. I wouldn't value Rosicky as anything decent now, because while he might have been good, he's also been absent for aaaaaages.
He still missed a HUGE amount of his last Arsenal season for that very reason
*** it , I dont give a ****
Arsenal were well and truly schooled tonight, as they were last week
It's a shame that it's a dodgy referees decision that makes it look like Arsenal even had a sniff. Was never a sending off although from the refs view it was a tough call, just feel so rotten for Fletcher, the guy has been brilliant lately, and was worthy of a final place
Wenger needs to swallow his pride and buy in some experience and stop kiddy fiddling, Arsenal are a superb team on their day, and no-one plays better football, but they're just too inconsistent due to the lack of experience
Anyway, I'm off to celebrate

you bought up injuries - thats why I bought up Henry , its not exactly as though he has never had repeaded injuries, obviously that doesnt count for your reasoning
I have my second contribution to this thread after my prediction earlier...
Que sera sera....
Whatever will be Will be...
We're going to ITALYYYYYY...
Quer sera sera...
Fletcher is one unlucky git but it might be a blessing in disguise for us.

Fletcher didn't clear the ball though, had Fabregas not been floored he would've still had possession and probably scored bar the keeper saving it.
I mean if Fletcher had touched the ball and then held Fabregas from getting to it first it would have been a foul, so why is momentum from the original tackle any different?
