Does that old Tony Adams thing of blowing out his cheeks every time he makes a simple pass - like it's a massive effort. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
leffe186 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 If Van Persie gets injured - never likely to be far away - this really is a ropey Arsenal team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, a CB pairing of him and Kosielny isn't exactly great. The sooner Vermelaen comes back, the better for Arsenal. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Segun Oluwaniyi Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Marseille-Arsenal has the atmosphere, quality, and feel of a lower table Ligue 1 match. Both team have been terrible, and it clear why neither are in the top half of their league. Diawara is the clumsiest player playing for a Champions League club. Could have had a penalty and an own goal already. Tired of him. It is nice to see that Arshavin has mastered Utaka's patented "I used to be quick, but pregnancy has rendered me immobile" style of running as well. Such a waste considering his talent a few years ago. On 19/10/2011 at 19:13, leffe186 said: This Marseille kit is just horrible, Baba. It disgusts me.

TaylorJ_01 Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Think the coverage is alright myself tonight but obviously it'll get slated anyway. Santos is useful in attack but feckin woeful in defence, should be off by now tbh (although none of the challenges were particularly bad). Jenkinson is ridiculously young and actually looks alright. Talk about being thrown in the deep end though Should be goals in this game... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Posted October 19, 2011 Share Posted October 19, 2011 Not exactly - more that they've done brilliantly on a tight budget to have progressed so much in a short period of time and play an exciting brand of football. Hardly expecting them to take the CL by storm or romp to another Bundesliga success. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
