Great game last night! How good was/is Wilshire?! He could be the future that lad.

On a side note, spot the Ronaldo competition....

Good game last night but Barcelona still masiive favourites. Big pitch home fans etc.

They will have to be well below par for Arsenal to beat them at home. They are that good at home they can be 3-0 up before you know it.

And it was funny to see just how terrified Barca were of Theo (who had a pretty decent game too - with some important darting back to defend on occasions).

You've got mud on your face, you big disgrace. No football brain but he's done you for pace. THEO, THEO WALLCOTT

his 'football brain' is improving, just as his play is.

Unlike most modern footballers who are at their best nowadays at around 23 or 24 (as opposed to the 27 or 28 it was in the past), Theo is going to be a late developer because he started playing football at a comparatively old age.

you mean arsenal have more than one song? wish they'd bloody show it. and talk about sing when you're winning last night. though i'd rather they not sing at all. that song is f**king dire. and factually incorrect.

I'm not getting why it he wants it to go to an US court, would they be more favourable to him in the US or something?

I've just been trying to find a a full report of that, after hearing it on the radio, and failed.

Has he been grated the right to try to sue NESV as well as RBS (not hsbc, surely? ) and the directors at the time? Cos surely they're not any part of any stitch-up he might think there is.

They're merely a buyer, a buyer who bought in good faith at the price they were asked for. Everything I've read previously said that they were in the clear from any court action.

Sweeping generalisation time-

Worse fans in the land, latte drinking bells to a man, only seems to have happened since they moved into the new stadium

I like that song though, I don't think its actually sung as opposed to just being made up by some internet nerd somewhere mind.

... and talk about sing when you're winning last night.

Eh? I thought the crowd got properly behind Arsenal all thru the match - much more than is normally the case at the Emirates.

nah i'm talking about their 'greatest team the world has ever seen'. rinse and repeat. they're a big club. you'd think they'd be able to get their heads together and come up with another couple

[ampersand]

They got a couple more Im aware of-

We've only got one Song

Arsenal, Arsenal, Arsenal

Greatest team

Too many songs leads to massive whackydom, Utd have too many, what was that embarassing Ryan Giggs one to the Robin Hood song? No need

[fraser_k]

Arsenal have improved greatly since last year when they played Barca and Wenger got his tactics right not to adapt there style of play to suit Barcas game.

From someone who generally watches Barcelona every week its so easy to lose it after they score first but Arsenal kept on playing the same way after the goal and all credit to them. Now arsenal need to find the first goal at the Camp Nou.
