dazzybee Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Arsenal are so bad! Can't wait for our game a week saturday. Reckon it could be an atrocious 10 days for Arsenal - out the CL, out the cup and lose at home to spurs! Boateng has always had ability, but he's also a complete prick. He's not mega consistent at Milan either. How bad is the emanuelson? I don't get how people we are miles away from everyone else. We are 4 points behind 4th, and we have the easiest run in ever. I'd also say we have been disappointing this season, we are capable of alot more. If our finishing had been as good as the top teams, we would be right up there. Apparently we've had more shots than United, and look where they are. Maybe not literally, but I mean in terms of ability. Like you say you have been really disappointing. I don't think you h ave a great team to be honest, but really don't play well at all; I don't see that changing. I'd love to be wrong though. I would love it if Liverpool got 4th!

Fierce_LiNk Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Terrible defending for Robinho's second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerald Emblem Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Absolutely embarrassing display, especially the midfield battle, absolutely dominated, Arteta, Ramsey and Rosicky were awful tonight. But then the all round play was poor apart from Oxlade Chamberlain and van Persie, Henry had his moments too. Have to focus on qualifying for next season.

Ramar Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 We very rarely duck out the Champions League quietly. Barca spanked us twice, Man Utd had our pants down, even Liverpool did us one year.

Emerald Emblem Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Napoli gave City a tough time, Chelsea need a big effort against them next week. If they go out then it says something has gone terribly wrong with English football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fierce_LiNk Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 Well, you could argue that English football (in terms of defending at least) has been terrible. Maybe you could discount Spurs from that, but nobody has truly dominated. It's partly why it's been a great season to follow as anyone can beat anyone and everyone can be beaten. It's exciting. Next year should hopefully be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they go out then it says something has gone terribly wrong with English football. I think it's because the Premier League has become much more competitive over the past couple of years. Spurs have emerged as not shite, and Man City have spent hundreds of million. Before the top 4 was pretty much guaranteed every season, to be United, Chelski, Arsenal and us. Teams have an overall harder season now, and play against better teams, which takes it toll. Well, you could argue that English football (in terms of defending at least) has been terrible.

We have conceded 2 less, and we conceded 4 against Spurs alone in one game. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Domestic league has been exciting. Next year, maybe the four qualifying teams for Champions League will do better.

Ellmeister Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I think we'll beat Napoli and go out to a better side in the next round. And then probably not even make it to Champion's League after Newcastle grab 4th spot :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 With time to reflect. Beating Milan would obviously have been great but lets be honest we're never going to beat the other top sides. All that would have would have been to fuel Wenger's believe that we're getting there. We should never have been thought of as a team in transition, we're far too big a club with too rich a history for that. That said, this season is basically written off and it's February. Something drastically needs to be done in the off season and that isn't raising ticket prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ipaul Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 On the result of the Arsenal game: Mind you, at least they made it through to this stage. So on the subject, who do we think will get the 4th spot this year? I'm willing to go out on a limb and say it'll be Arsenal. I can't really see things improving too much with Chelsea and I think they may even get worse. Liverpool seem to get too many draws and seem to sorely miss the ability to simply score goals to win games, good as their defence is. As for good ol' Newcastle...well our team really just isn't good enough. The only reason we're slightly in contention right now is because the other 3 teams have had pretty poor seasons by their standards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fierce_LiNk Posted February 15, 2012 Share Posted February 15, 2012 I reckon that World Beater Alexander Hleb will re-sign for Arsenal and along with Francis Jeffers will destroy AC at the Emirates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
