As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

"If you look at his numbers you are always surprised at how good he is. Sometimes the visual impression you get from a game has been frustrating, but he is very efficient. "
Thank you, Percy. If ever a quote has absolutely justified my hatred of arseholes that quote stats, then this is the one.
Arshavin. Efficient? EFFICIENT?? Fuck me, that's like saying Jordan is intelligent. Or NOT a pox-riddled cum guzzling mong slag with a cúnt that you could smell from two miles away.

He said that ?? Seriously ?? I know that he is a deluded old *word censored* and he has some out with some bullshit statements in his time but that is in a different galaxy altogether
God we really need somebody with real football knowledge running the club who would react with real disgust and shock over a remark like that dismissing the biggest defeat in the clubs history as irrelevent

This is what really makes me fucking angry. A lot of people spent a lot of money and took a lot of time to travel up to OT to support the team that day. To write it off as basically unimportant which is what Wenger is doing there is unacceptable. It may not be important to Wenger, but for the normal fans who have to go to work and face the flack and embarrassment the next day it is fucking important.
You could send a conference side ot OT and they wouldn't lose 8-2. It's embarrasing. This season for the first time ever, I'm embarrassed to be an arsenal fan.

Can you imagine the manager of any other top club flippantly dismissing your biggest defeat in over a century as irrelevant because we got past the CL qualifying round a few days earlier?! Unbelievable.
"I have seen the 8-2 again - you have to face reality but it was under special circumstances," said Wenger.
"Nobody is too keen to dwell on that result. We want to look forward and show what we are really made of.
"That's why these kinds of games are an opportunity to show we have moved on.
"It was an accident on the day but we are now in a position where we want to get points and it is important that we keep the belief high.
"We must focus on giving absolutely everything on Sunday and that we win our game.
"When we have everybody available we are a strong force in this league. That's why it is important that we fight hard not to drop many points and show that when we have everybody back.
"We are playing at the moment without Wilshere, Arteta, Diaby Vermaelen, Sagna - we just have too many regular players out.
"For us, more than buying players, it is important to get our players back."
