Wor Al 0 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 (edited) Do you want them to go through? Or would you rather see them lose? I'm not sure myself. Edited April 25, 2006 by Omar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 35102 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 I want Arsenal in the final, but I only want them to win if they promise not to be as smug as the scousers have been. Although their smugness if they did win it would probably be less than the smugness of Spurs if they got into it, so yep, Arsenal to win and break Spurs hearts!

Ive never understood those that wouldnt? 127446[/snapback] I've never understood those that go from hating the likes of manu et al to suddenly being up their arse because they're playing against "Johnny Foreigner". I'm not a hypocrite and on a weekly basis i hate manu, arse, chelski etc. their managers, players and fans and i won't suddenly drop all that because they're up against itallians, spaniards etc. Also every euro trophy these teams wins helps take them further away from us and ends any hope of competing with them. All we need is for them to do relatively well here and there to keep england having 4 places in the CL. However anyone who doesn't dislike manu, chelski can at least claim some consistency in wanting them to do well in europe. But for me i'll take some Spaniards who are distant and don't bother me over a bunch of arrogant cockney fans, a whinging, hypocrite manager and various players i don't like.

.../\......\o/... 0 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 I want Arsenal to go through, I enjoy watching them play and the further they get in the CL, the more of an impact it will have on Henry staying imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Dynamite 6010 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 but ive never been one for hating man u, arsenal, chelsea etc. i dont support them, and i dont like how their managers and playes go on in the papers sometimes but then a couple of years ago we had some of the most hated players in the league! its not hypocrisy to support english teams in europe, its national pride. you say we dont want the top english teams to win cos it puts them further ahead of us? thats still better than putting the spanish and italian teams ahead of the english league. the better english teams do in europe the more money comes into the game in this country, the more attractive teams like ourselves become to players from south america, africa etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snakehips 0 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 For a change, I actually want Arsenal to win the whole thing. Stick it right up Tottingham and all these fawning media arseholes who pull themselves over Barcelona. Have you noticed how the Nou Camp is now becoming 'Camp Nou' ? I don't go for this 'we must support the English team' crap. Last year's final was a funny one as when AC Meelan (as the media whores now like to pronounce it) went three up I was in ecstacy, yet when L'pool were fighting back I had completely reversed my thinking and were right behind them. C'mon Arsenal - but I think they'll get knocked out tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had no problem with Liverpool winning it other than it blatntly sets them further out of our reach. It is hypocrisy to go from hating somebody to wanting them to win just because their opponents happen to be foreign. And ther's no national pride in a arsenal who are managed by a frenchman and have almost exclusively foreign players. You can dmire their great football, but they are only english in name (not that i give a shit as i don't want them to win anyway!) And i said i don't want them to win trophies, we just need them to keep doing enough to give england their 4 CL places etc. The prem makes a fortune whatever they do in europe, and players from South America will always choose spain etc. over us for the climate and language.

Generally I want English teams to do well, unless they're a team I dislike. I don't particularly mind Arsenal so I hope they win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Papa Lazaru 0 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 Villareal comfortably outplaying them but not creating enough outright chances. Gilberto doing a classic Arsenal sly kick off the ball which the ref managed to miss from point blank range, though the Villareal player should also have been booked for acting as if his leg had been chopped off.

curry stained pilchard 0 Posted April 25, 2006 Share Posted April 25, 2006 I think the best "result" would be for Arse to go through to the final tonight, then one set of cock-knees are gonna be pissed. Arse if they don't actually win the Chumps league, and Spurs if they do, 'cause of the champions league place... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
