Up the Arse! Goons Thread

[Crow-eater]

In the first 15 minutes where we dominated, I actually thought Ozil was pretty good. The whole team dropped off in the first half after that though. Seemed to get a fair bit frustrated in the 2nd half.

Solid win overall. How good was Poldi's thunderbolt? How the keeper managed to knock it into the post I'll never know.

On a separate note:

Top quality trolling by the club shop. (I want one)

Its good to have some variety, aside from the usual (but still very effective) 'mind the gap' stuff.

 

[Hlebalicious]

In regards to Ozil I think it's quite obvious he is wanting the other guys to make those runs behind the defence. In the first half everyone was just hanging around at the edge of the box, Ozil is at his best when those runs are being made but at times we just look so stagnant.

Lacina Traore set to join Everton on loan.

Why aren't we in for him?

^ This! Ozil passing to stagnant players with their backs to goal doesn't play to his strengths.

Its a real shame Ozil and Walcott haven't been able to play much together this season as I believe they complement each others gamestyle. Arsenal's dwelling around the edge of the box never looks overly dangerous, we look like we're trying to pass the ball into the net and rarely shoot from distance.

 

[Benno_900]

I reckon Ozil and Poldi could link up well.

Poldi is probably the only player in the squad (apart from Theo) that will make those sort of runs behind the defence.

I'm not big on this Signing.

Chronic hamstring injuries and quite unfit.

Striker in 4-2-3-1 needs to be very fit and able to run all day.

West Ham nearly got him.

He isn't an Arsenal player (IMO). No better than Bentdner.

I do feel it would be crazy for you not to sign some kind of striker tho.

Maybe Alvaro from us? He's rally rally good.

Traore wasn't considered probably because Wenger doesn't view him as an improvement on what we have. Bendtner is probably only a fortnight away from returning anyway.

The Draxler rumours were watered down by Schalke this morning.

I ordered a Theo Walcott jersey just before he got injured and it just arrived today.

 

[Benno_900]

Just realised we are playing on a Friday night in the FA Cup.

What the ****?

 

[glenferry23]

That is strange....so that'd make it 6.45am Saturday morning (Eastern time). Weird watching live football on a Saturday morning.

 

[Flapjacks]

Can't say I recall a Saturday morning game! Gives us an extra days break b4 the Soton game.
Is it on espn or anything or do I have to look for a dodgy link online?

 

[glenferry23]

Would be on ESPN surely?

Not showing up on the guide

Not showing up on the guide

Yes just checked as well. Couldn't find it. Thought ESPN did all of the FA Cup games.

I do remember playing Leeds on a Friday night - Thierry scored 4 that game.

 

[elhadjihenry]

espn are showing a game on saturday night but doesn't look like they are doing ours.

dodgy stream it is

 

[glenferry23]

That is bizarre. Unless they've palmed it off to Setanta.

Speaking of bizarre, Bild are running a story that Bayern want Rosicky. F*ck off.

 

[elhadjihenry]

hopefully they just haven't realised that it is on friday night instead of saturday and the guide will change later in the week

I had a crack at making minor edits to one of your old logos. Think either of the two mock-ups would be a much better football badge than what you guys currently have now.

Thoughts?

 

[glenferry23]

Not bad at all. You must have been very bored though!

Just procrastinating on my studies and watching some old football videos and looking at old football photos

So yes, I was bored

 

[Cruyff14]

I like the current one. It's modern.

Arsenal cannot defend that logo from trademark infringement so wont be using it again.

Can't say I can recall doing it tbh?
