Woop woop Danny

Cuthbert 09-11-2014 04:23 PM

I am a really big fan of Danny Welbeck. He is a big game player and I think he will be decent at Arsenal. No idea why he's some sort of scapegoat, he is a bit gangly but he's a tremendous player.

What about Delph though? I went on Twitter before the Swiss match and the hate for Delphy was strong. Just shows how many people don't watch players before making opinions.

I thought Delph did good but only good. He was a bit too hyped in the first ten minutes but it's a double edged sword, if he doesn't make an impression he risks not being picked again, but he really improved after that. His attempted assist in the second half was poor but he should have won a penalty.

He isn't losing his place on the left side of the midfield anyway. Delighted for him.

Oh and Gareth Bale is :cool:.

Goofle 09-11-2014 05:36 PM

Delph was pretty shit in the first half to be fair. But as you know, I am a big fan and he more than deserved his call up and selection in the team.

The hyping begins.

I'm gonna be sick.

Costa though. Man is unreal.

Cuthbert 09-13-2014 02:41 PM

Come at us :cool:

Best defence in the league :confused:

Cannot wait to make it 13 points from five games.

Cuthbert 09-19-2014 05:43 AM

Your thoughts on our match tomorrow Goof? As long as we don't get embarrassed and I'm sure we won't, I'll be content. I'll take a draw.

I'll enjoy the match whatever happens. Still waiting for us to unleash Grealish. BTW if Trollheart sees this are you aware of Jack Grealish? 19 year old lad from Birmingham but represents Ireland through parentage. He's still open to representing the English full team.

If we go back to playing a proper formation we should win. Our players are still good, but our tactics have been horrendous.

Really losing faith in Wenger since the summer.

Do you think you'll have a better chance if Wilshere is out? Apparently he is now in but if not Ozil would surely play centrally then and imo that is a worry for us.

How come?

Welbeck has been up to his usual tricks in his last two matches but I'm disappointed to see people laying into him. Destroyed us at VP last season. Poacher's goals.

Goofle 09-19-2014 07:32 AM

Despite me liking Welbeck a lot, he's not close to the level of Aguero, Costa, Falcao, RVP, Rooney etc. And we needed somebody in that class.

We also needed another center back, a holding midfielder and - unless Ospina is top class - a real goalkeeper. Also, Debuchy is complete bobbins, and is now out for a few months. So replacing Sagna with that waster was a mistake.

Then we go into the season playing 433/4141 and we have been utterly terrible in every game. But he doesn't look to be changing anything.

Cuthbert 09-20-2014 09:57 AM

Meh.

Still in a great position however. Why Jores didn't start instead of that dickhead Clark I don't know. Nice cameo from young Jack.

Goofle 09-20-2014 10:12 AM

Finally dropped the horrid formation and we play well!

Cuthbert 09-21-2014 12:03 PM

I can't recall a more exciting day of football than this.

The game of the season in the Midlands w/ Leicester & MU. Leicester play some lovely stuff and should be comfortable this season.

Everton losing at home to Palace.

West Birmingham beating Spurs away.

Frank Lampard scoring against Chelsea and nicking a draw.

#Deece

Our training ground has been closed because of a virus which took out some of our first team players. We are still in a great position despite the loss. I will take a draw vs Chelsea next Saturday.

Goofle 09-21-2014 12:22 PM

Perfect weekend for Arsenal. Unbelievable.

Cuthbert 09-28-2014 02:10 PM

Christian Benteke is returning from his injury this weekend. I'm fairly confident he will be named on the bench.

The only match I saw this week was ours but Balotelli looked like he spent all match on the floor in the Lpool match from what I saw on MOTD.

A shit weekend for the MB #lads.

My boy Berahino smashing the goals in though >>>

p.s. Rooney ffs :D

Cuthbert 10-04-2014 03:40 PM

That one was hard to take.

But the feels when Benteke finally made his comeback >>>

We are going to need a win from our next match.

Big game tomorrow. Just hoping we don't lose.

cba to check whether you're home or away but I know it's against Chelsea.

I'm starting to like Arsenal. The young English players, maybe.

Goofle 10-04-2014 08:42 PM

Stamford mate. We are so fucked.

Goofle 10-21-2014 08:32 PM



A little vid I put together.

Where you at CB?

Mojo 10-30-2014 07:23 AM

If we don't sign a ****ing centre back in January I'm gonna scream.

So incredibly frustrating to watch your team lose by EIGHT to a Southampton team who weren't even required to play well for it, and then respond by gifting an Arsenal team who also weren't required to play well a 2-0 win.

Mannone did a good job for us last season and for the first couple of months of this season but his confidence looks totally shattered now and Wes Brown is now even further off the pace than he was.

Currently it feels like it doesn't even matter how we play cause we have enough individual error being made to nullify any level of performance. Brown has cost us so many goals, O'Shea still gets beaten to way too many crosses and 50/50s, Vergini put a belting volley past his own keeper and Mannone looks scared to make a save.

I'm here bro. Don't have as much time to post any more, uni and ting.

I'd say I'm disappointed with Delph, but I don't blame him. A steal for whoever takes him for free in the summer. Ah well.

Cuthbert 11-09-2014 11:01 AM

Woah, just seen the Arsenal score. What went wrong?

Man like Alexis though >>>

Thought it was crazy Barcelona sold him.

Goofle 11-09-2014 11:05 AM

We are rubbish. Highly unlikely we finish Top 4.

Chelsea/Man City nailed on, Saints will probably fall off (where's Tristesse sure he's a Saints fan, must be loving it), the other two places are up for grabs and Arsenal will have one of them.

Who else is going to creep in? Spurs/MU/Everton/Liverpool have all been unconvincing.

Mojo 11-13-2014 08:31 AM

West Ham. Obviously. :p:

Cuthbert 11-16-2014 06:21 AM

Belgium vs Wales - 5pm

Will probably watch Italy/Croatia of the 7:45pm kick offs.

Scotland vs England on Tuesday. Light work for the England B team. 3-1.

Cuthbert 11-16-2014 11:23 AM

What a thug Fellaini is just smashed Joe Allen's nose, blood all over the shop.

Benteke is on :cool:.

What are your choices bros?

Surprised Wilshere's pinball goal isn't on it.

Cuthbert 11-18-2014 12:59 PM

Hope we batter them :cool:. This should be really good. Blood and thunder affair on and off the pitch.

Come on England.

Happy 140th Birthday :cool:

I'm going to the Southampton match on Monday, we are having a Victorian gas lamp unveiled outside the Holte before the game, think it's a classy thing to do tbh.

inb4 5-0 loss.

Cuthbert 11-22-2014 10:02 AM

Arsenal got this. Will win by at least two goals.

To be fair, the way you played, that's what should've happened. De Gea masterclass and 5* bottling lost you that.

Keane has left.

Goodbye. Thanks for the erm... Thanks.

Cuthbert 11-28-2014 05:16 AM

Don't worry about it mate, not really enough soccer fans on here to have a thread for every different competition.

Who's your team?

Cuthbert 11-29-2014 08:00 AM

Welé >>>

We go again. Jores is going to crunch man today.

2-0 Villa :cool:

Cuthbert 12-06-2014 10:27 AM

Unlucky Goof. Excellent match though. Good day of football all round.

Sad to see it end like this for a legend. Most Arsenal fans seem to want him gone. Shouting Wenger out. Banners and the like.

Sad.

Cuthbert 12-20-2014 07:32 AM

Shower, dry, put my garms on and now I'm fly.

Leaving now, 2-1 Villa. It's gonna happen.
