Posted April 23, 2006 Tbh I can't remember the last time I was at highbury and thought or said "great play reyes!" or after the game mentioning his name when discussing who played well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 23, 2006 I expected Middlesborough to walk all over West Ham............seemed like it didn't happen. Liverpool v West Ham cup final then! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 23, 2006 I expected Middlesborough to walk all over West Ham............seemed like it didn't happen. Liverpool v West Ham cup final then! I'm suprised by how many have said that, I think I was the only person who though West Ham would win out off all I have talked to about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 24, 2006 Reyes does seem to be one of those players who will delight and infuriate in equal measure It does seem though that teams just try to kick him off the park to stop him playing, and it does seem to work most of the time Luis Garcia at Liverpool is another one, he is a good player but annoys the hell out of his own fans a lot of the time I would much rather have players like these in my team who are capable of producing the sublime than go without them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 24, 2006 I expected Middlesborough to walk all over West Ham............seemed like it didn't happen. Liverpool v West Ham cup final then! It's because of the Claret and Blue colour scheme at the stadium that West Ham thought they were playing at home, completely forgetting their colours are more burgundy and turquoise.

Posted April 24, 2006 Wednesday drew 1 all with Reading on Saturday(could have won) so great result and Sturrock wore a Kilt and the players came round to applaud the second best supported team in the championship, not bad for a team that finished 21st, after Norwich but what else can the people of Norwich do?

Posted April 24, 2006 I agree what you guys are saying about reyes. He's the definition of inconsistent. Sometimes performs brilliantly, running at defenders, providing superb crosses and generally getting involved in the action. Other times, I wonder why we splashed out £17.5 million to Seville for him. If he gets his mentality right, then he could actually be the player we bought...but I think this comes with age, maturity and experience. Hopefully over the years, he'll grow into a great player for the gunners. And I think he will. :awesome: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted April 25, 2006 I thought the match was pretty shoddy until the last 10 mins. Im a Liverpool supporter but I like to see the English clubs do well in Europe. That was never a pen and the gunners deserved to save it and deserved the win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 25, 2006 I think its safe to say Riquelme has the award for the shittest penalty ever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 25, 2006 YEHHHH!! COME ON U GUNNERS!!! We are in the final of the Champions League baby!!! Even though we did play pretty shit and had to rely on a wondersave by Jens, I thought we deserved it by our performances against Juve and Real. Clichy was sick!!! But fuckin Reyes is pissing me off. He was so poor...Pires should start the final IMO. Jens you ledge!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 25, 2006 I have to say, Henry was absolutely shit all night, worst I've ever seen him play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 25, 2006 He wasnt that shit, what was he supposed to do? Arsenal went there to play defensively and they did, Henry cant do much up front on his own against 3 defenders. As that other guy said the pen wasnt a pen, deserved to be saved and to be honest over the 2 legs Arsenal deserved to go through, i just hope they dont win it. Come on Barcelona !!

Posted April 25, 2006 ahh well, barcelona will just batter the hell out of arsenal by the looks of things. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 25, 2006 Henry didn't have much support or supply upfront he got isolated. Don't write us off even if it's Milan or Barca in the final I expect us to play better and more offensively in the final Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 26, 2006 But fuckin Reyes is pissing me off. He was so poor...Pires should start the final IMO. I think your being a little harsh Reyes did more last night then Ljungberg, Hleb and Pires combined. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 26, 2006 I didn't watch the game, but I heard that the Villarreal players celebrated being awarded the penalty. Tossers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What game were you watching, Reyes did sweet fuck all, Pires came on near the end. Ljunberg and Hleb made good runs all night, the objective for Arsenal was to hold on, not play their usual attaching football. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted April 26, 2006 I was at a gig last night, and as soon as the final band finished I shouted out "Anyone know the arsenal score?" Some dude told me it was 0-0 and Jens saved a penalty. And I went mental, made my day. Can't believe it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All I saw Hleb do all night was give the ball away either by being caught in possesion or with a shit pass. Freddie was non existant in the first half although he picked up a bit towards the end of the 2nd. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
