Arsenal VS Liverpool

[Discharge Man]

I'm moaning because Liverpool have had the referee in their pocket both games.

The referee is the first thing a scouser has paid for since 1804.

Arsenal need to buy players in the Summer. Arsene Wenger brings in youngsters all the time. You can't buy youngsters all the time. It's like who would you rather the next Ronaldinho or Ronaldinho himself. Arsenal need new defenders, new goalie, new centre midfielder, new winger and a new striker if they want to challenge for a major title next season.

I'd rather have the next Ronaldinho, since he's what, 28 now? I'm fine with Almunia in goal, he's done nothing wrong in my opinion. At most I think we need one centre back, possibly a LB and possibly a back-up winger and back-up striker. Remember that we've had Eduardo, Van Persie, Rosicky and Sagna out for significant periods of time. We've been very unlucky with injuries but I don't think we need to totally reform the team or bring in loads of new faces. The team we have at the moment can only get better, and will get better because of their youth, it's clear that many of them have already improved from last season, such as Flamini and Adebayor. Remember that this team were top of the league for a large part of this season and this season will have provided the youngsters with a wealth of experience.

Haha, unbelievable.

I thought Liverpool deserved it until Theo's run. That was a match-deciding run and his teammates let him down with some poor defending. It was a penalty, the fact is that the European game is properly officiated unlike in England. Only gripe I have is that the challenge in the first match WAS also a penalty. Only positive I can take is Theo, I'm a little disgusted that Eboue consistently gets chosen over him despite playing poorly week in, week out.

Agreed.

But why are people blaming Toure anyway?
Didn't anyone see Fabregas behind Babel? Fabregas pulled back Babel's arm putting him off balance, it also slowed him down so Toure collided into Babel.
Fabregas even tried it again slightly with the fourth goal, pulled Babel's shirt.

[Ailo Gaup]

Wow, that was inspiring.

[Rarelime]

Theo's run brought back memories from the 98 world cup. If he gets enough games in the future, I am sure that he will be a natural successor to Michael Owen, with regards to the England team.

Not being a supporter of either team it was a great game for the neutrals. But isnt it a shame that Arsenal are not going to win anything this season, considering Tottenham have? :rolleyes:
