Arsenal v Newcastle United

[Gejon 1]

I'm asking, it's just what you two normally do. Behave like the mackems.

Has to be a middle ground with Ba really. He's entitled to ask for what he wants but I imagine he'll understand why the club would be reluctant to pay him far in excess of any other player.

 

It's a shame the clause exists, obviously. If we couldn't agree terms with Ba on an improved contract we could at least make more than £7.5m off of him. £7,5m for a player of his quality is an absolute bargain.

 

If he leaves, I hope it's to a decent side capable of winning trophies (even Turkish ones, given he's been linked to Galatasaray and his best mate Moussa Sow plays over there). If he went to QPR because they're prepared to pay him a large wage, I'd really lose all respect for the man. Which would be a shame as he seems like a nice, amiable person.

Whats with the aeris hate? never understood why a difference of opinion on team setup or mentality is grounds for 'wind up and ban'

Taking the piss on me because we lost is just weak. There's plenty of other scapegoats to take punches at.

Aeris in fairness wasn't doing what LBT was in this thread, and like i've said many many times they're not the same person so knock that line of shite on the head ffs.

just before everton gubbed newcastle last season, alan pardew stated , "Forget about Everton and Aston Villa, we have put ourselves in a similar position to Arsenal,"

Hi Salty/LBT.

Must try harder.

Really? She's constantly having a dig imo. One thing that makes this board so special is the moderators tolerance. Fair play, to an extent, I'd be automatically banned from RAWK for the same shit though. Which, as a scandinavian, she should go on anyway.

Knows bugger all about football, follows LBT around like a 13 year old Bieber fan. Only purpose on here seems to be to wind everyone up.

 

There is a difference to a different opinion and just being a knob. There are plenty of people who aren't happy on here but they don't piss off the majority like she does.

While Arsene Wenger struggled with his zip, Danny Simpson was pre-occupied with thoughts of undoing his.

[StevenL 0]

we drew 0-0 at home last season; we lost 0-4 in the League Cup in October 2010

 

Horrible game. Walcott played down the middle and fucking murdered Perch.

 

Sounds familiar.

[Kid Dynamite 1,232]

 

I've banned LBT.

Making me a hypocrite but it's not up for debate

 

 

Means nowt if he can still post his shite as Aeris though

Different posters. 100%.

Disappointed today. We just fell apart in the 2nd half, never mind the last 10mins.

 

For me, Cisse & Ba can't play together without Ben Arfa & Cabaye; and even then I'm not convinced. Cisse's becoming a bit Asprilla-like for me (without the antics). By that I mean, he's upset the balance up front. Mind you, we have bigger problems defensively and in midfield - which is detracting from the goals we are scoring.

 

I can't believe we've scored 6 in the last two games (away to OT & Emirates) and we have fuck all to show for it. For once, we can't blame a poor run of form on an inability to score goals. We're creating chances too, just not showing enough strength to keep people out.

 

I hope to fuck we buy some players, whilst we have bought plenty of 'prospects for the future'; our first choice team picks itself - and we have no tangible backup. The prospects are exactly that - prospects and aren't ready yet. We're clearly suffering because of injuries, but it's highlighted the obvious problem we all saw when we didn't strengthen in the summer.

 

I worked out what I thought we could get from our remaining 19 (18 now) games with my Dad yesterday and I reckon we'll finish 13th / 14th. According to my Dad, I picked many of those results with my heart and not my head. If that's true, we're fucked.

Why does it even matter? Name me another football board that will put up with a non-fan like this?

One thing shone brighter than all the rest today; we really missed Williamson

[Gene_Clark 12]

In all seriousness, obviously hysteria is easy after such a result; the most important thing, as far as I’m concerned, is Pardew keeps his nerve & reflects on his substitutions. Without the changes we would probably have lost anyway, but going so gung-ho caused the late collapse. This must never happen again; otherwise I may start to wonder about his judgement. While at any ordinary club, such a result would be seen as reason to sign players to strengthen the team, we are far from an ordinary club; although, in the midst of that defensive carnage, we scored 2 truly excellent goals in the second period. In December 2000: Arsenal 5 Newcastle 0 - a far worse battering than today. In 76//77 we let in 7 at Man Utd & 5 at Arse, but finished 5th, so don't despair!!

 

Fundamentally, all that matters now is we beat Everton. That will not happen unless Pardew keeps his job & his temper & the team step up. The manager knows what he has to do is pick the players up, put the obvious faults right & hope for some good luck; that happens, we're fine. If it doesn't & he panics or has the rug pulled from under him in any way, we're screwed.

[BigWalrus 0]

I reckon there is more to the substitutions than meets the eye (ie injury / perceived tiredness).

 

Tiote and Bigi's dominance in that deeper area meant Arsenal's attacking threat was limited to the wide areas. Once Bigi came off, that all changed.

Guys

 

I've not been on here for a while as I was having a rest and busy with Christmas, work and a project I have been working on.

 

Today though has driven me to come on here.

 

I am concrened, very concerened. We need a CB and fucking quick. Perch has had a new arsehole ripped open today and not helped one bit by the shocking display by the midfield. Tiote, WTF was he doing today, he was fucking pump. Simpson, well, he is far too busy pumping that fucking skank from Xfactor. Get rid and ASAP.

 

Marveaux and Ba were the only people who really showed up for us today.

 

Sort it out Pardew or we are fucking down.

[Monroe Transfer 0]

fucking pump/pumping fucking

 

You forget Obertan and Bigirimana by the way. And I don't think we'll go down even if we don't sort the glaring issues out. Sad it's even being considered after last season, mind.

I am disgraced with the team, bar 3 of them. Only Cisse, Ba & Marveaux came over to applaud the away support, the rest fucked off down the tunnel. Pricks.

Poor form, and it's not much of an excuse given what they're paid, but I imagine they were gutted and just wanted to get out of there.
