Is that average teams like when they beat Man Utd in the league? I guess Man Utd must have parked the bus up that day because they lack any ability to play football?
Any more rubbish you want to spout out?
Arsenal have been heavily hit by injury for the past two seasons beacause they lack a decent size squad and desperately unlucky. If Arsenal had all their players back then their season would have been a lot different.
Imagine if Man Utd lost Ronaldo for six months? I am sure they wouldnt be top of the league if he were.
Rubbish, heavily hit by injury? Fabregas, he's the ONLY first team starter we've had out for any length of time this season. ok Gallas and CLichy now but frankly, the season was over when they were out. Rosicky would NOT be starting ahead of Nasri this year, nor THeo. I would start him, but Wenger wouldn't be starting him. LIkewise Eduardo wasn't being started over Ade last year pre injury, or in the games since he's been back from injury.
Fabregas is the solitary long term injury who would have started every game if he was fit.
Man U have had lots of small niggling short term injuries to almost all of thier first team at some stage of the season, Rooney, Ronaldo, Rio, Vidic, Evra, Neville, Brown. But they havne't had if very bad. Chelsea had Drogba, Essien, Cole out for longer than Fabregas, aswell as shorter injuries to Terry, Carvalho. Liverpool with Torres and Gerrard. INjuries is an Arsenal excuse, we've had one of our best years in terms of injuries to ACTUAL FIRST TEAM STARTERS, compared to the last 4-5 years our first team has been pretty good damn healthy till very late in the season.
Yes, we beat Man U in the league by scoring 2 of very few chances. Ronaldo and ROoney between them missed what most people woudl consider 5 ridiculously good chances, and 2-3 more than in a great game they would have scored. On another day we would have lost that 6-2, it WAS our best day and we still almost lost, it was a poor game and unlucky for Man U and they still almost beat us.
I've said it for well over a month, I'm happy to go out in the semi rather than get utterly trounced in the final against barca, had that happened I think it would have been the catalyst for RVP, Fabregas, Gallas to all head off with many more to follow after the season we'd have without them.
