  1. 0 in the last 8 1 in the last 14
  2. So who has been performing well in our team since 2005/2006 season, in attacking sense? what does this have to go with Owen? Martins has had a tough season but did very well in the previous 2 when he was on the pitch. Surely you're not using the performances of players like Shola Ameobi and Damien Duff to vindicate Owen
  3. 2005 was 4 years ago mate. You take away the penalties he's scored and he's managed 1 goal in 3 apps pretty horrific for a striker who justifies selection on goals only if you ask me
  4. right, which was 8 years ago, he isn't half that player now
  5. However you can't prove that, Owen will get more goals than RVP if he was in the Arsenal team im sure. They will carry him lengthy periods sure, but will get more goals. this is the same Owen who never managed 20 premiership goals, even at his best 8 years ago
  6. of course they are tbh. Owen's primarily an instictive finisher, not a clinical one
  7. if that happens we're down

    Hopefully the first of many goals i'll see live from Vukic going to be a god
  11. Carrick's a magnificent footballer, heartbreaking that we wouldn't pay £2m or whatever it was for him
  12. just to clarify I was refering to that ridiculous article
  13. I agree with most of that, but you surely cannot have your best defender at LB when Liverpool's attack comes straight down the middle. Swap Bassong for Taylor and get Carroll in there
  14. our best central defender once again at LB, honestly, what do you people take?
  15. I heard the bit about the car like i think the guy's a fucking embarassment btw and it's sad that we have to employ somelike like that to create a half-decent atmosphere which quickly became a non-atmosphere
  16. Yesterday he had a chance through on goal & was key in setting up Viduka for a similar chance. He also linked up play quite a few times, though first half he was to deep for me. Think you're one of the few saying no passion/no graft. Please explain why you think Owen is our top scorer this season/last season & who you'd replace him with/why. Owen is doing nothing, so it's not hard to find a replacement. Carroll or Lovenkrands should have started in his place yesterday, not that i'm massive fans of either, but one will work hard and frighten defenders with pace and the other will at least rough up the less physically capable defenders in the league - Sol Campbell an obvious exception to this. as a footnote to all those who are so confident that Owen is more of a goal threat than the lad, Carroll has scored 3 goals since Owen's last.
  17. Id go for the guy who can score goals using magical mind powers, but we dont have that either so we'll have to stick with guy #1 wont we. Owen should stay in the team yes. However when people start talking baout him going to Arsenal or Man U next season I just find such things perplexing. The thought of Wenger playing Owen ahead of the likes of Adebayor, Van Persie, Eduardo ... I mean come on! Still debatable, depends really on the ability of the team. It could be argued that if you're a side that passes nicely, Owen is more likely to get more chances as his movement is better than Adebayors. Not something we could compare unless Owen was in a side as capable as Arsenal really. now you're just talking absolute nonsense, he'd get nowhere near an attack like Arsenal's
  18. The question HAS to be, what have seen of Owen recently, ie in the last 8 games or so, to suggest that he'll be effective for the remainder of the season we've seen fuck all, no goals, no passion, no graft, nowt. After every game most of us are saying the same thing, Owen did nowt, it might have been better had he not started. Surely it's now more of a gamble to play him from that start than not to
  19. Barca would roll over Arsenal with half their team on glue to be honest
  20. Surely it's best for you if Chelsea make the final
  21. come on Chelsea. Think they'll get through like, Drogba should be far too much for Barca's somewhat diminutive defence
  22. will you blame him in 4 games?
  23. Carroll should start this one imo, just the type that Carragher might struggle with
