Stupid Monday !

I believe I am not the only gooner feeling this way, but anyways life and football move on. I've heard enough read nuff blogs and news and stupid pundits like twichies son saying some Gallas is the signing of the season and all the stupid stuff but I've had enough of the torture and decided to move on.

Well I read Arseblog today and they have rightly highlighted the consistency of this team, no, I am not talking about the winning consistency but the consistency in showing the complacency while going 2-0 up or while playing smaller teams and this has been the case over the past 5 years.

Well I promised I will move on but you all can understand what state of mind I am in. Lets not think about the Sp*uds game till the next derby match against them, I believe we will beat them.

Now, what we gooners feel that Arsene should motivate his team and move on and focus on the match against the Portugese side Braga, really we have a bad memories of last season while playing in Portugal(Specially Fabianski). Lets just hope this team do enough and secure top spot in the group.

We still have the chance to move above Chelsea in the league, considering the rumours surrounding Ancelotti future and all the defensive problems they have but in the end its this team of ours have to decide s we can take advantage again if the opportunity arise or we will bottle it like we did against the tinies, only time will tell until then we all have to wait and hope.

That is it for today nothing new, apart from the ongoing war of words between Gallas and Nasri.
I think they both should shut up and move on.

When was the last time we BEAT OURSELVES ?

After last night I did not talk with anyone I think all the gooner's should know why. Last night defeat against the tinies brought back the memories of Wigan away game last season, but on further analysis I realised that this defeat against the tinies was not because of them being any better than us. But what I felt was that we gifted them those three goals they scored. In the entire 90 mins I cannot remember one clear opportunity that they created or troubled our keeper or opened our defence inside out that was not the case here. Infact we gave them the 3 goals and 3 points on a silver plate.

Lets just look at the way that they have scored. First goal was actually created by a header won by Defoe probably the smallest player on the pitch and then the ball was chested down by Van der Wart and he was not challenged by Sagna, he then flicked it to Gareth Bale but our very own Denilson decided to just stop and admire.

The second goal free fick at the edge of the box, well ok that was not a free kick but we have to do our basic right while defending a free kick, Fabregas have got away with such handball on previous occasion but not this time, how can you raise your hand and not expect a penalty when clearly that free kick was going nowhere instead Chamakh would have got it with his head but still Cesc thought it is wise to put his hand up, the second gift for the tinies.

What more can I say about the third goal they stole atleast 10 to 15 yards on the freekick, but still we have got to defend and again the basic was not right while defending the freekick. why was RVP marking Kaboul, he is not the greatest in heading a ball, why wasnt a defender marking him, we all know he is good in air.

I feel so tired now really but don't even think for a second that the tinies are even close to Arsenal as the British media would suggest for the entire season now. We are far better than the best in England but the only reason why we are failing at the crucial time is because we do not have a proven winner, a leader in our team, We needed a leader on the pitch when the tinies scored the first goal. I don't know how Arsene is going to motivate them but all I can say to all the Arsenal fans is that we will still come good at the end of the season. You call me optimistic but that's what I am like when I talk about Arsenal.

Barca C*nts !

No news about Arsenal apart from transfer rumours really it cannot get any boring than this.

Tomorrow is our first pre-season match really I am expecting all the young players to play tomorrow and our new signings as well. you know Chamakh and Kosomething.(if anyone know how to pronouce his name please let me know).

I know the headlines for this post is not realated to this article but like many gooners I also like to piss on them. Anyways our very own Theiry Henry has joined New york red bulls for I dont know how many years.

But what I do know is he will be making his debut for them against Sp*rs. This is what he said about the game " I won't even mention the name of the team that we are going to play on the 22nd. That's how big a rivalry is it for me."

Isn't he a fuc*ing Legend, Alright nothing much to write about, May be I will write about tomorrows game against Barnet. I will be back again tomorrow after the game till then have a good one.

Good To Be Back, All the best Titi

Hello Gooners,

Its good to be back after a long spell with no post. Lots of reason not to post family, personal and lots of other stuff(I will not be discussing them in details) So what did I miss?

So far all I heard about is Cesc to Barcelona, I know you all are pretty much had enough of it so all I can say is F*** off Barca/Pique/Puyol/Laporta etc etc. Gosh how low this fuc**** are.

Anyways on the positive side we signed Chamakh and Kosomething, I know people are still asking for a defender and a goalkeeper Arsene has promised about one more defensive signing, I dont know what it will be ? A GK or a defender it can be anything only Arsene knows, I would personally prefer both.

If a story about Fulhams Mark Scwarzher is right then he should do well for me, he cannot be any bad than what we have and we all know who will the Arsenal no 1 after may be couple of seasons.

Nothing Arsenal happening around apart from the pre- season training and the traditional pre season curtain raiser againt Barnet this saturday. To be true after this boring World Cup I am really excited it. Time for some real football.

People I cannot really figure out anything more to write about. Oh! one more thing All the best Thiery Henry doesn't matter where you play you will always be my favourite player.

Am I forgetting something..........yes am I the only one who noticed that Eduardo name is not on the list of probable squad for the game against Barnet.

Ok thats all I can manage for today hope to be back with some exciting post, hopefully which you all will like

Till then,

Shut Up ! Move On..........

I mean really we should have won the game if not for Howard Stupid Webb or the linesman and of course our very own Almunia.

Is this something new. Arsenal fan's really need to ask themselves is this new that they have witness this season. I would really suggest every Arsenal fan out there who whine after every game about new goalkeeper, stupid refereeing. Guys! just stop, your whining won't change anything instead it will put more pressure on the team and the manager nothing else.

Instead of whining support the team and move on wait till the season is over and at the end of the season we can analyse what went wrong and then we have whole 2 month to shout on these issue.
League is anyways difficult to win but we are still in it.

Let's concentrate on Champions league, we can win this shit. So stop complaining and support the team.

UP THE GUNNERS.

All Hail King Gallas !

I don't want to talk about last night draw for me it was a point gained rather than 2 points lost end of.

First I will start with a prayer to the almighty to please give us a good news on Vermaelen injury, hope its a minor one.

Now about last night, everyone is praising Sol on his performance, yes he did a brilliant job hats off to him and Wenger who signed him at the right time.
But my man of the match is Billy Gallas for his excellent display last night and showed why Wenger rates him so highly. He was immense last night, considering how quick is Ag-long-ball-whore(hope I spelled his name correctly) he held on to him quiet brilliantly and matched with his pace and trickery.

We all know how Villa played last night direct ball to Ag long....whatever , who was supported by two wingers in Young and Downing. And Billy and the entire defence especially Sagna did very well.

I am really surprised as to so many people praising only Sol for the clean sheet and not Gallas except for few blogs.

If Wenger is to be believed, Gallas has been playing on the limit. In such Circumstances all I can say is All hail the new king.....King Gallas.

And one more thing f**k you Lee Probert you were shit last night.

Gooner4life...

Finally Time Has Come....

At the start of the season, when the fixture list was made almost everyone pointed out these four games as to how Arsenal will cope with them. Everyone said that it will be difficult for Arsenal to hold onto that fourth Champions League spot, but here are we fighting for the Title right there with Chelski and ManUSA and every pundit eating there word when they said Arsenal is the team going out of the traditional Top four.

Arsene Wenger has proved to all that he really knows.

Alright I am getting too sentimental now,

Now for todays match. its funny till yesterday it looked like we have all kind of injuries and today it seems almost all are back( except RVP, Djourou and Gibbs Offcourse) Nasri, Ramsey and Nikki B.

Of these three I really want to see Nikki B hit the ground quickly, if we are to win the league then this boy has to come good and stay fit for the rest of the season. Arsene really have lot of faith in his abilities and he is the reason he did not sign a striker, now I heard people saying what has he done only scored 2 goals so far, I say he scored 2 goals playing in the wings, he was not used as the CF, if he was being used as a CF and then has he scored only 2 goals then it would have been a fair criticism.

People forget that he is the same player who scored 15 goals last season, and he was the 3rd choice striker. So give him some time.

Lets hope we win tonight.

Gooner4life

Stop Worrying About Dogba......

Hello Gooners,
Sorry for the long absence,

Song and Eboue both are back, yes, its a good news. So be happy about it considering how Colin Lewin patients are increasing at a rate of one midfielder per game. I feel Denilson has not completed recovered from his injury. Don't be surprised if Eboue start against Villa considering he hasn't played for his Country after getting himself red carded.

And yes I was talking about Drogba. Almost every Arsenal blog is highlighting the return of Dogba before Arsenal match. Yes I know, that cheating A**hole has been troubling Arsenal for past couple of years and it seems that everytime he plays we tend to end up on the loosing side. But that stats should not let us intimidate us.

I genuinely feel that we are winning the league this season and even if we lose against Chelsea we will still go on to win the League this season. So people stop worrying about that animal and get behind the team.

And yes please don't mention about the FA cup defeat. Arsene is not to be blamed considering the number of injuries we have at the moment. So please stop moaning.

Arsenal 3 Hull City 0 - MOTD Highlights

Here is the Full match Highlights Arsenal v Hull City

Arsenal v Hull City
Uploaded by holdincellz110. - More professional, college and classic sports videos.

Diaby ! Can you do it consistently?

Last night game was the best game for one player and he changed the way I use to think about him, yes you guessed it right, I am talking about Abou Diaby, he was the stand out performer for me, Apart from the Defence, If he can play like this week in week out, he can be a menace for teams playing against Arsenal, First 30 minutes were poor, then Arsenal really started to play in the second half, After Denilson with a magnificient Free kick put Arsenal Ahead by 1-0.

Diaby was the one who won that free kick, he also put the cross for Eduardo to score t e second and in the end he scored the third to put us 3-0 up. Common Diaby if you can play like this, where were you all this years? and please do not dis appear after last night brilliant performance. Same showing against Aston Villa please.

Now nuff of Diaby praise, We all got what we wanted so badly after watching Manure losing at the Craven Cottage defeat by 3-0, yes you heard it right 3-0, I was watching that match because I felt that Fulham wil beat ManU.

Last Night Preview.

GoalKeeper

Saved the Penalty but that does not change my stand toward him, he needs to be replaced, otherwise Hull did not test him.

Defence

Two CB were brillinat as usual, Eboue was good going Forward, special mention to Silvestre because Hull player were targeting that that left wing as our week side but he defended well and helped in attack as well.

Midfield.

It was more of a hard working Midfield rather than the usual Arsenal Beautiful passing one, but none the less they did the job well. Denilson and Diaby were involved heavily in the Attacking third, Denilson in the first 30 min was a bit shaky but may be beacause of his injury but got involved as the game played on, Song was excellent as we have come to expect of him.

Forward.

Arshavin did what he does best, always try to do something which help in attack and he was closed down quickly.

Eduardo, well he still dont look sharp. but on few occasion he was brilliant one when he turned and was through on goal in a flash I was like how the F**k he do that, but lacked composure to put in on goal, but eventually he scored one later on in the game. from a beautiful one passing.

Nasri was good if not brilliant, I thought Nicky Bramby should have been Red Carded for Raising his hand on Nasri. I thought even Garcia deserved a card for his melodrama, Nasri just stepped on him he acted as if someone kicked him between his legs and fell to ground.

All in all a good result considering ManU lost. 3 more points against Villa please.

Thank God Fabregas Got Injured

No I am serious, sometime you feel injury is bad, yes it is bad but looking at the time of injury, it does not annoy me, because I am sure we will win against Hull tomorrow, But the thing is if you can remember Johan Cyrff Calatan match against Argentina, which Wenger refused to let him go and Cesc Wanted to play in, now there is no possibility that Cesc can play in that match and there is no possibility of a dispute between Arsene and Cesc over this stupid so called charity match. So I would say its good Cesc got injured. I know he is a player who make us Arsenal tick, but if we cannot beat Hull without Cesc we dont deserve to win anything then.

Now it is believed that Owen Coyle wants to take Jack on loan on January, If I was Wenger I would say yes, because if he can give Jack some playing time and that too in the premier league that will be great. I like Owen Coyle as a manager, he has done a fantastic job to get Burnley promoted and the way they play at home is great. So a Loan move for the best talent in English Football would be great.

Now for tomorrow Match, As usual we have a long list of Injuries, Cesc is out, but Denilson is back. RVP, Gibbs their rehabilitation continues. while Nikki B, Clichy Rosicky and not Far Away.

Here's hoping for a good match. and an Easy win.

And anxioulsy waiting for tonight draw for the Last 16 of the champions League and here are the teams we can draw against.

VFB Stuttgart
Inter Milan
FC Porto
CSKA Moscow
AC Milan
Bayern Munchen
Lyon


These are the seven team waiting to be drawn against Arsenal, If I would want anything from Santa this Christmas it would be an Injury free season from now on and VFB Stuttgart in the Last 16.

Let me know who do u think we will draw against tonight.

Here is a small video of our little Maestro Season so far.

Almunia And Barca Both Need a Slap.

Sorry for the Long Absence from the blog, Exams guys was busy writing them.

Anyways back to my favourite topic Arsenal FC. Now About last night game. Yes we were not playing good after Cesc got injured, (WOW this guy really does mean a lot to Arsenal). Anyways to many negatives from this game which I really thought we will win. But take nothing away from Burnley they were well organised and did not let us score.

Keeper.

How bad was Almunia? Almost cost us the match, if it would had been for the offside flag, we would have lost the match. That was a cross even my teams GK would have held on to. Common Arsene replace him.
Defenders were hesitating to give him back pass they had no confidence in him.

I dont want to talk much about the game anymore, we built a good momentum with a win against the KOP's but failed to continue with it. Next up is Hull at home I am expecting for an easy win without Cesc in the team. No more hiccups please.

Barca need a slap on their face, I really think it time now that Arsenal complain about their public pursuit of Fabregas, trying to unsettle him. Joan Laporta is desperate to hold onto the president seat at Barca.

Have Something To Say, Express It

First things first, sorry to all my readers for no post for few days, I was busy with my Best friends Wedding, Indian weddings are grand, So had lot of work to do for his marriage,

Alright lets not go there, 3 matches 3 loss, ok its bad I know But i will not consider Carling Cup result as we all know how much importance Arsene gives to Carling Cup. So I will not waste time talking about the loss and how Mark Hughes is a prick.

Stoke Game I think we will win it. No matter how much physical they get, we will beat them. So I will not waste time in talking tactics and Stuff.

I have been receiving lots of E-mail from my friends and my readers, they want to express their thoughts and feeling, After discussing with my fellow gooners, I have decided to publish your your thoughts on my blog if they are good.

So If you guys have something in your head just mail it to me, if its good enough I will publish it for you guys.

Do not forget to mention your

5 Way To Beat Chelsea.

Well seriously I am tired of reading all the match preview and how we have a weaker if not better Squad than Chelski,

But trust me there are 5 way through which we can beat chelski.

1 Play Denilson and Song in the Middle along with Cesc Fabregas, I know many people have lot to say about Denilson but trust me, in this new 4-3-3 formation he plays just ahead of Song and Behing Fabregas thus helping in attack as well and in defending and he has developed himself physically If you have doubt remember Man shitty game, we conceeded as soon as Denilson was taken off. And besides he plays well in supporting role to Cesc Fabregas.

2 Vermaelen should Kick Drogba at every possiblity becuase no matter what? he is going to stay on the groud even if not kicked by anyone and avoid letting him get behind defence for those long ball which is sure to come because our midfiled is going to outplay Chelski Midfiled.

3 Play Sagna and Eboue as Fullback, these two has played at the left back position before but I expect Traore to play, he is good in attack but not so good Defensively.

4 Play Eduardo as CF because I cannot see a better game for him then Chelski get his goal scoring touch back, players like Eduardo raise their game against big team when given the chance.

5 Arshavin and Nasri as wing forward, Arshavin is the key here because they have a make shift right back in Ivanovic and we know what Arshavin can do, people have criticised Arshavin this season but remember he is a big match player and can hurt any team at any point, he did that against Manure but unfortunately got injured, and this is his first chance to show his class against Chelski. I expect him to score this Sunday.

6 Sorry I am adding an extra point here, Contain Anelka he is more Dangerous than Dogba, he attacks koin in midfield he drags his marker with him and his movement is diffcult to judge, our fullback should be on their toes to track Anelka becuase he attacks from anywhere on the field.


3 points is what we expect and 3 point I hope we get, and 3 point is all we are asking for,
All the preview review does not matter this Sunday, May the best team ( Arsenal) win.

Get Off Eduardo's back. Arsenal will beat Chealsea

An away trip to sunderland after an international break was never an easy way to start the premier league, Arsenal started well and probably played well throughout the 90 min but just could not penetrate the resolute Sunderland defence. To be true this was the result I feared against Sunderland because they have really improved under steve bruce, coming away with a point from Old trafford is not an easy thing to do. I would have been happy with a point. but anyways we lost.

Now about the match let me start of with defence.

Vermaelen and Gallas were solid as usual apart from that one setpiece, nothing they did wrong all day.
Sagna as usual solid at the back and also while attacking but his crosses were as usual not good.
Traore was lively throughout the match but was sometime out of position. he really need to work on defending more.

Now comes Midfiled.

Song was probably the best player but still he did not had the best game of this season.
Cesc was finding it hard to get thing ticking as he was playing deep and Cana was stuck on his ass like a bee to a honey. but still he did well.
Ramsey was tad disappointing, I expected him to do well after a week off and after such a brilliant performance from him against Scotland, was easily outmuscled at times.

Now, finally the attackers.

Rosicky was lively when match started but faded away, well could be because of lack of match fitness, he should have scored in the opening five minute of the game.
Nasri was finding it difficult to get in the game was lacking match sharpness after a long lay off, he was desperately trying to drive in the middle to create something but failed to do anything.

Finally about Eduardo, OK not his best game but got to give the guy a break and give him couple of games to adjust, because I see all the bloggers writing him off that he cannot play in that role. what I feel is crap? He will come good trust me. Even Van Persie took seven eight game to get on in that position. Trust me Eduardo will not take seven games to adjust, give him a couple of games and he will come good. Don't judge him by just one game, he will come good.

Overall we were the better team but failed to take any chances though they were few. Next up Chelsea, I have got a very good feeling about this game.

Have faith Gooners.

Well It can't get any better than this.

It cannot really get any better for for our opposition listening to the number of injury that is mounting they will be happy to know another first team player got injured, november curse strikes again. this time its Gibbs. It is believed to be a broken something. Something similar to Nasri's injury so we all know how long to wait for him to get fit.

Ok we have Traore to fill the gap or even huge experience of Silvestre to fill in, but the man who I think will replace gibbs is Eboue. Finally I think Arsenal fan will come to know the importance of player like Eboue.

Well Tonight one more intenational, so by tomorrow we will come to know how many players we have lost due to injury, I wish it do not extend but internationals always springs a surprise.

Well I don't know what to say apart from rumours mills and injury news I do not have any thing to give to you all.

Song did not make much difference last night.

Brilliant win last night, even when we were only in our 2nd gear I suppose, I was really surprised to see Song on the bench, But which was normal considering the number of games he has played already. I was expecting Diaby to play the holding midfielder role but as usual Arsene surprised me once again by playing Ramsey in the DM position. I cannot say it was wrong considering Diaby can never be a defensive player, no matter what, he always tries to move up the pitch and attack, so expecting him to hold the midfield was not a good idea. Ramsey on the other was disciplined if not good in the DM position.

People will say how he was not good enough but the real problem was that Wolves were working very hard to pack the midfield and still Ramsey was keeping his cool in that situation, yes at the start he was shaky but as the game went on he really grew in stature, holding the ball well and moving forward and as soon Diaby went out injured and Song came in for him, thats when Ramsey opened up and started to play some good football.

It would be wrong to say that Song was the real difference maker, I would like to disagree because I feel wolves were really up for it not giving us space and closing in quickly. What we all knew was after some time they will get tired and starts to looose the ball and by the time Song came in and as soon as we scored the first it knocked the stuffing out of wolves and you can see from their body language that they are done for the day and then we scored second and a beautiful third.

So in a way I was disappointed to see Diaby off, since I really wanted to see how will we perform without Song, Remember against Celtic when we won 3-1. Denilson did a brilliant job at the DM role and I am expecting him to do the same when Song leaves for ACN.

All in all a brilliant performance from the team even though when not at their best and long it may continue. Hoping for a draw between Chelsea and ManU.

Once last thing, F**k News Of the World, who claim to have an insider in Arsenal Boardroom who says that Arsene will Quit over takeover. So I would suggest just laugh at that.

Time to get the away form sorted out.

Hello Gooners,

52 goals in 18 matches, that is a kind of stat that last year all conquering Barcelona couldn't manage, this really make me feel proud to be a gooner, but Arsenal's away form has not been what we expected it to be after 6-1 drubbing of Everton, Arsenal have not been comfortable while on road. We lost to Citeh and Manure, drawn with West ham after leading by 2 goals and had to fought very hard to win 1-0 against Fulham, almost lost to Liege in the champions league.

I am not being negative here but our away form has been so so. I see this game against Wolves as the confidence builder for the team to get their away form correct because Wolves has not played well and if things continue the way it is they are set to be relegated.
I know we will win against Wolves but how comfortable will the victory be, will Wolves give good account of themselves I don't think so. So message for today go their make it a comfortable win without making a mess of it.

And other reason this 3 point is important is because Chelski and Manure are playing this Sunday and its a very good opportunity to close the gap on top of the table, a draw at brigde will be a great result for Arsenal because if we win tonights game and the game in hand than we can go on top of the premier league table, If we can manage a better goal difference than Chelski.

So Tonight should be a comfortable win 3-0 to the gunners

Top Four! Are You Serious ?

Same Old Spuds always crying. Top four? Harry you are no Arsene Wenger.

What a magnificient game , in my last post I mentioned about how inportant game it is for Arsenal to get that horrible memory of last season 4-4 draw, especially for couple of players.
Arsenal responded and boy how they responded well.
First goal from RVP just show how well he has adapted to that CF role, it was a typical CF goal from him, I was celebrating jumping in with my fellow gooners after the first goal and when I saw RVP Fab Celebrating I thought that ESPN is showing the replay of the celebration of the first goal but suddenly I realised that we scored second when Andy gray said so. I just did not see the goal happened, 11 seconds is the gap between 2 goals we scored, I will not be surprised if it is the fastest second goal scored ever and then the third goal from RVP killed the game off. Nice work from Sagna again after ref played on, All in all a great performance from everyone. Uhhhhuhh well not exactly everyone.

But all in all a great confidence booster for Arsenal, though I was sad not to see Nasri make his league debut this season, but I have got a feeling that he will start in the midweek CL game against Alkmaar.
Now about the Carling cup draw, Citeh away is the draw, as soon as I read about our next Carling Cup draw I knew it was made by God himself, We would not have to wait till next April to beat them and let them know that their win against the gunner was nothing but fortunate.

And yes I almost forgot, special mention to Song for the wonderful tackle on Keane when he was clear on goal, this is the kind of determination we want from our player's week in week out if we are to win a premier league title.

Next up CL. Enjoy the Highlights.

Arsenal v Tottenham Hotspur

I Still Remember It Like Yesterday......

I am sorry for a long absence, since I was stuck with some work but I still managed time to check out highlights of previous gunners encounter with Hammers and Pool,

And yes I do, I still remember that 4-4 draw against spuds last year, it was the same game after which Arsenal team spirit started to collapse and the dressing room problems were made public, it was the same game which took away the confidence of one of my favourite player Clichy. After this game Clichy was never the same, and he is still struggling to get back to his very best, there is only one way to get this monkey off Arsenal back, this year is by beating them by a huge margin, I will be happy if Arsenal beat them by one goal but what my heart and every gooner heart will want our team to beat scum like never before,

I still remember that game like yesterday when Clichy slipped and Jenas scored and then Lennon scoring the Equaliser. I can still remember those spuds fans chanting in our own stadium. Those scum need to be taught a lesson no matter what "I want to play for Pool" Keane says about their team strength being better than our team. which we all know is crap. The bottom line is I want those spud fans to leave the Grove before half time, I will be happy if Arsenal can do the same thing they did with Everton in the opening fixture.

Let me know what good or bad you have to say about this fixture or any nice memory you have.
