  7. No he doesn't normally "blast those straight down the center" you monggentator. Low and to his left.
  8. caught out of position a few times, some nice tackles, shite crossing tbh. Not bothered we didn't pursue him if this is his standard.
  9. jesus christ people/clubs who can't catch a break, in no particular order: Mike Newcastle United
  10. FYP. Fixed it for the new season. http://i.imgur.com/cFIqYUw.jpg

  12. I would like both teams to lose here. As an American, unfamiliar with the sport, can someone tell me if this is possible?
  13. Are there four other words in English less likely to inspire confidence than "Joe's on the case" ?
  14. 2 if pardew lasts, 8 if JFK takes over at any point.
  15. Here's the problem with that: Signed in January? - turned abysmal squad into merely crap Signed in summer? - turned abysmal squad into merely crap The point is they would have still only just moved the quality of the squad to where it is now regardless - that is to say, still not good enough. If we had made 2 in January we'd have needed 6 in the summer, not 3, and no one would be happy.

    Papiss Cissé

    bought with gambling winnings no doubt.
  17. Aye but they sold more than that as well. The mere fact they are boasting about having "financial power" and they can't seem to sign any of their targets wouldn't go down well if i was a fan. True, they have, although I view gross spend as a better indicator of ambition as net spend can be hugely misleading due to one or two big sales - imagine if Spurs had really sold bale for 100m, they'd be sandwiched with us and Arsenal at the bottom of that "net spent" table, further destroying its use as an indicator. I think the season or two after Man Utd sold Ronaldo they were down there too. Means nothing tbh. I just meant it's a common meme to hear that the Arsenal board want Arsene to spend but he's not spending instead he'd rather buy a 16 year old random french lad and turn him into Henry mk II etc etc.
  18. Arsenal's spent £100m the last two years. Arsene's not allergic to spending, despite the popularity of that meme. They'll get in players before we will.
