quote:Arsenal are showing a lot of arrogance here, planning for something that may not happen, The 9 year trophy drought can continue for another year, remember Birmingham City?? could easily be Hull City this time and then you know were you can shove those signs! Yup, planning for scenarios is for arrogant bastards.

I know, all fun and games innit. Any additional pressure on arsenal is good imo, because the only way we stand a hope in hell is if they completely bottle it. So, feeling mildly optimistic.

Koscielny has signed and the rest of our players are on huge contracts and don't seem to want out. We've got at least another year before that happens.

In more Arsenal discussion, there's a lot of talk about us being in for Serge Aurier. The only thing I know about him is that he's a 21 year old french speaking African born right back, so I imagine it's a done deal.

He's bee rumoured for literally years and *pretends to watch the French league* is really good. Supposedly he's quality and better offensively than Sagna but who knows. He's also an Arsenal fan or has at least been pictured wearing a shirt. e - The 21-year-old told Foot Mercato: "You cannot refuse Arsenal. You can ask any player if he would play for Arsenal and I think he would respond positively without hesitation. "It is certain that Arsenal is a dream." It's one of the more likely signings.

Whenever quotes like that come from a relatively unknown player, the deal usually doesn't happen. I bet we probably scouted him like we scout everyone but we won't end up buying him.

Based on their performances against Shamrock Rovers, I can safely say that if we sold Suarez and Sturridge this Summer, then Aspas and Borini could become the new SAS. Or AAB. Or BAA. (Ibe looked deadly and Coady actually looked pretty decent too. Our backline was still hilariously bad at the defending part of their job, though.)

We should hire Steve Clarke back as an assistant and tell him to fix our defence like he did that one season under Dalglish.

I suspect we'll start seeing them in early FA/League Cup rounds (though that hasn't gone so well for us in the past).

I think this was my favorite part of the whole Liverpool collapse. Luis Suarez, who is crying in front of thousands and thousands of people, all of whom are sitting in stands constructed to give them the best view of him, deserves his privacy.

I think Gerrard is a top, top lad for protecting his teammate  Its a small gesture but a nice one. e: also I think its safe to say you can't draw any conclusions from a friendly against a team from the league of Ireland except that the Shamrock Rovers are poo poo quiet enjoyment fucked around with this message at 23:34 on May 14, 2014 |

cheese posted:I thought Borini looked a little slow on the ball tbh. To be fair to him Borini (and Allen to an extent) did just play almost an entire season of PL football. The rest of the team were kids or fringe players but he had just come from a really tough campaign and managed to put in a fairly decent account of himself. quiet enjoyment posted:e: also I think its safe to say you can't draw any conclusions from a friendly against a team from the league of Ireland except that the Shamrock Rovers are poo poo Oh yeah I don't think anyone other than Rodgers is reading anything into it.

But with Wenger there's always a chance that the team shows up "nervous" and can't complete simple passes. We'll know in the first 20 minutes how the game will go. They'll whimper, shake and curl up like an inbred dog with nerve damage OP
