Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [7th - 12th February 2014]

This is what I'm interested to see. We'll have the financial capability of putting together a squad capable but unlike 5+ years ago the CL spots are no longer a closed shop and it would be somewhat a risk to bulk up the squad too much with it not being certain of CL football again the following season.
As for the League, if we're there or there abouts with 4 games to go then I'll start looking at that. For now I'm more concerned about putting a buffer between us and you lot.
United for the most part just fed off Arsenal mistakes, RvP had two great chances due to Arsenal losing the ball in dangerous areas but Szczesny saved brilliantly. Arsenal either got tackled or made a stray pass as soon as they hit the United third, the 5-6 times they did open United up Giroud fluffed the chances. Oh and Valencia headed a Koscielny header off the line.
It was a big anti-climax I thought.

It wasnt great, quite dire from both teams who didnt want to lose. In all honesty, Arsenal should have lost that game but thankfully RVP didnt score from his 2 golden chances but neither did Giroud lol.
As an Arsenal fan, i expected a better response but frankly all i saw was a pile of **** from our players notably Ozil, Wilshere and Giroud most notably...those 3 should have been benched or used as subs in the second half. What angered me the most was that in the whole freaking 90mins of football, Wenger ONLY made one sub Ox for Rosicky who was by far one of our best players on the pitch
. In the end we came away luckily with a point.

Every single interview Moyes does lately is about 'luck'.
He really needs to stop sitting around and hoping things will change on their own.

My internet has been down all night, so I missed the action. I think I might send Virgin a thank you card.
He doesn't like talking about luck m8
Poor run of luck tbh.

Wasn't a bad effort to be fair.
Not at all...but it's Steve Sidwell!
I remember a Liverpool - Utd game when Heskey had a go after Barthez was miles out of his goal. Iirc, it went straight along the ground, going miles wide and was blocked about 10 yards inside the Utd half.
