Arsenal Vs City Post Match Thread

[Shirley]

what's our complete strongest 11 this year?

We haven't got one. We have a squad that is capable of changing to suit the opponents and situation.

Yes we have an almost perfect squad, very powerfull and considering today we were missing YaYa, Jovetic, Fernando and had Sagna, Mangala and Scott Sinclair sat on the bench.....;-)

Just a masterclass in "being a whinging little fanny" by Coontenburg. As at KKKlanfailed last spring, he was thoroughly intimidated by the home crowd. And what the fuck? The home crowd at the LIBRARY!?!?! Sure they were more vocal than their usual "just took 4 Ambiens" standard, but FFS it is not as if we were at Galatasaray and 50,000 menacing Turks with knives and flares were staring him down. Fucking Arsenal, FFS. Half that lot are checking their stock portfolios on their iPads during the match.

Though in all honesty I thought we looked pretty shambolic for most of the first half, made innumerable mental mistakes, and were fortunate Welcrap did not score.

Nevertheless, it is good to get at least something out of this. I wanted at least four from this lot and the Chavs and we are certainly still on for that.

Good to see Pellers call out Twattenbent. I sense that in his first year here and as a foreign manager he went a little light on this side of things. But now bedded into the EPL he can hopefully start bullying back in a more public way against this sort of fuckery. Plus the fact that he is known as a calm, classy guy adds some weight to what he is saying. Not as if he is crying to the media every single week and getting that "boy who cried wolf" reputation.

The one eyed nature of football fans is summed up by this guy on metro. He has all the same complaints that we have.

Having said all that a draw seems reasonable. After all we were an inch away from Welbeck opening the scoring which may have made life difficult.

Just need to put Chelsea in their place next week.

Judging by their dominance so far think thats a tough ask. We need to be at our very best to get anything from Chelsea. Maureen will come with his game plan and we need to be ready.

Happy with a point. Really good performance outplaying Arsenal at times on their own pitch and we have more players to come in

Very promising

watched the first half again. clattenburg was fucking diabolical, even worse than you thought. they get nibbly little fouls all day, often for just throwing themselves to the ground, and we get players carded for first fouls right and left. debuchy nearly takes milner's leg off and not booked. and then the two fouls before their goals. 2 points dropped to the ref today, even though we should have put at least 4 past them, they had two goals given to them by a cheat cunting ref

Some of you of a certain age might remember an old Jack Rosenthal play called "Another Sunday Sweet FA". The reason I mention it is one of these days I am half expecting a referee to jump up & punch the air in celebration when the opposition scores against us.

Leaving aside the handballs/fouls on the goals, 15 fouls for us, 11 for them? 4 yellows for us and 2 for them (plus one for the dumb twat Sanchez removing his shirt.)

Those statistics don't really gibe with the match I just watched. Twattenburg really needs to never officiate a City match again. That was just disgraceful.

It's about time City got it out there that this guy is blatantly not fair when he refs us and Pelli has done that now. The fucking idiots on BT Sport thought he was upset about a handball from last season but it's pretty obvious that he's talking about specific encounters with the **** that is Clattenberg.

Defend like we did today against Chelsea and they will punish us

Hate to say but Silva was poor for his own standard.

Just catching up but did you actually watch the fookin game? He fookin ran the show and proved that he is our best No 10 whatever people say about Jovetic
