Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [27th - 28th August 2011]

This is painful to watch, Arshavin needs to be taken off before he gets a second booking, he should be off already in all fairness, replace him with Miyaichi. Jenkinson needs to realise he's actually a right back and stay in his ****ing position, Traore has been terrible as usual and Djourou has been dire. Rosicky has been trying his ass off, Ramsey has been slowing the play down WAY too much and RVP hasn't even been in the game. Pathetic in all honesty.
 
Chelsea look like the last saving grace of London at the minute.. Could be a Mancunian one two come end of the season. As expected a true demolishing of Arsenal by United.

Oh, obligatory "But where will all the goals come without Tevez and super defensive Mancini?!"

Trololololol 1-5.
 
Arsenal have serious problems. As well as being short of cover at full-back and in midfield, lacking quality at CB, lacking defensive organisation, they desperately lack leadership all over the pitch.

I heard today that Arsenal have won 2 league games since last seasons CC final. If they take a pasting today, they'd be lucky to win another 2 league games all season with the character they have in their squad.
That goal wouldnt even merit a mention if it was any other keeper.

Obviously it will be exaggerated because it's De Gea but short of have the ball smashed through you, a keeper shouldn't be beaten at his near post like that.
 
Was a well placed shot from Walcott. If Messi had done it... Oh wait he did in the Super Cup, and no one blamed Casillas for not doing better.

*sigh*
 
De Gea should have done better but again, Johnny Evans was too deep playing both Walcott and someone else on I'm pretty sure. Would like to see another replay to confirm that and the clearance could have been a hell of a lot better too.

Honestly, its a shame Rafeal Da Silva is injured and we have to use smalling on the right, other wise Evans would just keep the bench warm. I would be happy with that.

Smalling on the far side was also playing them on from the replay but god, I despise Evans.
 
We have a 2 week international break.

We will have some new players (should have cahill to partner vermaeelen) and a lot of injured players back.

Get wilshere back in CM and possibly nab hazard and were back in business again.

Its dire how weve started the season but there are still 35 games to play. Anyone saying we dont have a chance of top 4 are idiots tbh
 
Obviously it will be exaggerated because it's De Gea but short of have the ball smashed through you, a keeper shouldn't be beaten at his near post like that.

He certainly has a lot to learn.

I wonder whether the pen save or the goal conceded will make the headlines though? People are willing him to fail.
 
Not dissimilar to some of the sendings off Vidic has had vs Liverpool though.

:confused:

It wasn't dissimilar to the red card at Anfield for pulling down Kuyt. He received a 2nd booking for that though.

It was nothing like the other 2 though. Gerrard was in possession of the ball and would have certainly had an unchallenged one on one attempt at goal and the other was a 2nd booking for wreckless challenge on Alonso.
