arsenal man utd
 
have i just missed the thread on it or something?

i only managed to see the highlights on MOTD, but it looked a lot better match than the old trafford one, and although there were some incidents, i think that the ref handled them well

although i must admit that i am pleased by the outcome :):):):):)

Wenger's not been the calm collected individual he is famed for being of late.

Arsenal have no backup in CM/CD to speak of.

Ronaldo scores goals now?

I'm not.

Stupid northerners with their silly accents and coal mining industry and their buy one house get the street free etc..

Re: arsenal man utd
 
it must have been gutting for wenger to see ronaldo score twice in 4 minutes

Fergie did what he does best and won the pre-match mind games, which probably helped UTD win on the pitch.

It's also no coincidence that Arsenal lose a lot more often when Cygan is playing. They could do with a goalkeeper, David James would probably be an improvement on what they currently have.

Manchester's hardly famous for it's mining...

The game was amazing entertainment and as i already said in another thread, reduced me to screaming with more joy than Gary Glitter at an orphanage.

I enjoyed every minute of it, though admittedly probably only because we won.

No man is an island. entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main.

In the same way, Manchester is not 'the north', it is a piece of the north, a part of the mainland that's north of London and basically, not as good as the South.

This makes little to no sense. You either enjoyed yourself at the time or you didn't. Surely you can tell the difference between a good match and a good result?

Re: arsenal man utd
 
well if you loose in the end, everything changes, especially your feelings about the game.

JonnyBGood 2 Feb 2005 19:16

Re: arsenal man utd
 
He said he enjoyed every minute of it though. You can't have a present state of mind based on a possible future.

I'm either having a good time at the moment or I'm not. Even if I die or get castrated in ten minutes time that still won't have changed whether or not I was enjoying myself before that.

PS It's spelt "lose" :(

Lupin 2 Feb 2005 19:22

Re: arsenal man utd
 
you suck, because you are exorbitant pedantic here. ( i am sure you know what he actually wanted to say, just prolly expressed it the wrong way.)

but under the line, you are right.

JonnyBGood 2 Feb 2005 19:23

Re: arsenal man utd
 
Your choice of words is immensely amusing :up:

Phalon 2 Feb 2005 19:39

Re: arsenal man utd
 
I agree it made no sense.

Had i died at a specific moment during the game i would've enjoyed it up until that moment.

Had we lost, i would've hated the result but still enjoyed the match.

Thanks for pointing that out :p

The Yorkshire and County Durham of 50 years ago?

Yeah, modern day Manchester's right on their doorstep.

Let's focus on the result that everyone really cares about.

It's a big win, certainly, but Liverpool vs Charlton doesn't exactly stir the blood.

Blastoderm 2 Feb 2005 23:16

Re: arsenal man utd
 
I'm still pissed off at the fact that Arsenal did nothing in the transfer market last month. They should have bought a very good keeper at least*. Even their shitty next door neighbours (Tottenham) have splashed out on some decent players. I can now see Arsenal win the F.A. Cup this season (that's if they avoid the likes of Chelsea and Man Utd)








*Either that or there are secret scouts watching all over Europe for the next best thing in goal/defence and then do what they did to get Reyes.

i would suspect man utd of winning more than arsenal this season now, in fact, i wouldnt be surprised if arsenal win nothing

Seeing as Arsenal has a goalie/defence crisis in my opinion, I agree with you.

"**** all, you're gonna win **** all" was what I really, REALLY wanted to chant last night to Man Utd fans.

So what did you end up chanting last night?

I was in a pub full of Man Utd fans, including my house mate who is ST holder, so I went for the quiet option sadly :(

Re: arsenal man utd
 
somethign along the lines of: shit, you beat arsenal again, well, i hate you as everyone else does, but actually, you're pretty good'

sounds about right :)

Pay nearly £20m for a young, well known Spanish international? (or near future international, at least)

Believe it or not this was the first time that Arsenal have lost when Cygan has played in the Premiership. Unfortunately I'm not sure of their record when he plays in europe/fa cup/league cup so I dunno how they fair in those competitions when he plays.

First time this season. A couple of seasons ago, Arsenal only lost when Cygan was playing, and they lost the Premiership at the death.

I believe he played in both games when we did the double over you :).

Re: arsenal man utd
 
To say I was unhappy was an understatement, but I'm not going to cry about it. I think a lot of decisions didnt go our way, but they never do against united. We didnt play well, they were deserved winners, there is only next year.

I'm not an arsenal fan, I can't remember the last time Blackburn played 'us' (Torquay).

G.K Zhukov 6 Feb 2005 20:31

Re: arsenal man utd
 
Wengers choices for Goalie seems to be weird.
Wright didnt get a lot of chances, and was sent out quite quick.
Taylor has been doing well when Ive seen him, but he doesnt seem to get alot of confidence from Wenger.
Stack is probably also going out the door without ever giving the chance.

And all we got is a lauzy spaniard and a unstable german :(

And Wenger, YOU NEED A SQUAD; NOT ONLY A FIRST-ELEVEN!

Come on Dein, why dont you get someone else than Wenger to decide what goalies to buy?

Blastoderm 7 Feb 2005 00:27

Re: arsenal man utd
 
I'd rather Arsenal not have a Director of Football who got into the way of Wenger in dealing with deals etc.
