Arsenal Thread 2013/14

Ozil has been crap of late

Fellaini is crap

Big difference

I would say Ozil has been a big disappointment all season,Fellanni hasn't played yet.

I agree that Fellaini hasn't played yet, but he's been on the pitch in a red shirt a few times. He did a great job of watching Toure in the derby I recall. I'm being literal by the way regarding the 'watching' bit.

Ozil did far more in his first few games than your new winger Mata as well.

I'm not so sure it wasn't a sarcastic boo.

The Arsenal/rags match is a whole new world of hell for me. Old City says "come on Arsenal smash fuck out the dirty shower of shite." New City says "fuckin' hell, am I really wanting a rag win?"

I've gone all Natalie Imbruglia.

Are you ever confident of Arsenal getting a result vs them? Also Arsenal is not the Arsenal of the early season, no Ramsey and disinterested Ozil. Made this point a few posts ago....might be the match that that "fantastic four" of United gets the media wanking or whatever.

Basically, even though I want us to chase 3rd, I'd still hope for a 5-0 Arsenal win but then you just can't rely on Arsenal.

Arsenal are like that girl that whispers in your ear and rubs against you a little too close, but then won't go home with you. Teases, must drive their fans nuts.

Well I thought both teams played kind of cowardly. As if they'd be ok with a 0-0 going in. Whatever.

It might be a blessing to lose against Liverpool in the cup and go out to Bayern in the CL meaning only 13 games left to do our best in the league.

I think you'll do us. The 5-1 is too recent for you not to be well up for it. Is Bayern midweek though? Interesting selection problem there. Wenger might say eff it and field the likes of Sanogo though.

BTW, why didn't Oxy-10 start against the Mancs?

Because he was indisciplined and wasteful against Liverpool
He is also not match fit
He should play Sunday I imagine

Bang on this

Was a master stroke not going for him and getting Fellaini for more than the buy out clause instead.

At least he was cheaper ,they have both been crap.

Ozil has been crap of late

Fellaini is crap

Big difference

Ozil's form has been poor of late, but thought he was pretty good yesterday. It's not his fault that Arsenal have no runners for him to find. A number of times yesterday he had the ball and either only had Giroud or nobody else moving for him. Considering it's his first season in the Premiership, no preseason with the team and he is tired then there is no problem.

Fellaini is not crap. He was overpriced, not good enough and does not fit into United. That being said he is a very good player. He has arguably been Everton's best player in previous seasons. He has come to United late, missed preseason, been injured and playing in an unfamiliar position (has played for the national team). He has hung him out to dry and used him as a scapegoat. He is best behind the front man, bulldozing defences, flicking things on and scoring goals.

If you talk to Everton fans they were glad to see the back of Fellaini mainly because Moyes tried to play him as a DM and he didn't want to play there. You're correct in that he is better playing just benhind the forward(s) and if Moyes tries to use him as a DM again he'll play just as badly as he did for Everton.

As long as they retain their 4th place trophy Wenger will be happy.

Wonder how many gooners are cringing with embarrassment after having their booing of a side having a great season (2nd in title race) still stayed in touch (a remarkable achievement given some pretty major injury problems) AIRED ON TV FOR ALL TO WITNESS ! they should hang their heads in shame no wonder some of their players are on the pitch hearing it thinking why the fuck bother when your own fans do that ..........SHAMEFUL.
