Ten goal thriller!

[ampersand]

Well, they were 4-1 up at one point!

[ste4_20]

Don't mind losing on that accumulator to see Leeds collapse quite like that.

Smaller one came in at about 15/1 which took the edge off it.

ROMA - CFR Cluj (Roma won - cant remember details)

[Colonel Mustard]

Considering Tottenham's injury list I think 4/1 for Twente is madness.

Well a rent boy like yourself would know it when you see it! (Although I understand it may be a novelty to see it without the aid of a mirror).

Well thank god for a decent result, even if the performance wasn't great. Wilshere had another terrific game, have a feeling he'll be starting on Sunday. Really is quite a testiment to him that he was brought off towards the end to protect him. The link up play between him and Arshavin at times was fantastic. As for Arshavin, I honestly can't think of a more frustrating Arsenal player in all the time i've supported them. So much talent but so little end product most of the time.

Very pleased for Fabianski too for saving that penalty. He's still rubbish but you could see how much it meant to him.

do you think he'll get the nod on Sunday as a result? Or will you be back to the equally dodgy Almunia?

If I were Wenger I'd go with Fab - while he's not the better keeper I reckon the confidence boost from last night against Almunia's confidence drain from his dodgy doings on Sunday will give Fab the edge.

I don’t think either are confidence players, they’re both just limited. Anyone can save a peno, or miss a peno. Rio Ferdinand is a great keeper for saving penos apparently and regularly wins bets off players in training, including Van Der Saar.

Arsenal need a new keeper asap. Any other manager would be crucified for not investing until now, especially after not winning anything for a few years.

[The Nal]

I'd disagree with you there mate, both are massive confidence players. They only problem is that when they're feeling confident it only makes them average, when they're not it makes them utter rubbish.

[eFestivals]

Suppose any keeper plays on confidence a bit but I meant it doesn't make them of Arsenal quality. They still make silly mistakes!

I wasn't trying to say either would get up to the expected quality for a team that plays at Arsenal's level, just that there's a choice available, and that my choice for Sunday's match based on the last week would be Fab.

betting annoyance - had a 9 game accy, every result comes in bar qpr winning against millwall :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

kakuta looked handy last night, malouda was absolutely amazing again and i'm loving anelka's penalty taking this year - way to take the piss

[ampersand]

can people keep posting about their betting woes as well to make me feel good about stopping.

in fact, can we not just start a betting thread? cos talking about horse racing in here doesn't really fit.

[deschwah]

he might have been a decent player overall, but he makes Glen Johnson look like a world class full back. As a defender he was far far worse than Johnson.

Does anyone want to discuss the finances within top flight premiership football clubs?
