    How about this Craig Whyte fella selling off Rangers 14 shares in Arsenal to Usmanov? A piece of history for an amount Tevez earns in a week. Might have offered them to the AST if he needs the money that bad. What a cnut!

    A word for Walcott yesterday. He was quite bad in the first half but still contributed to the first goal with the little flick he set up RvP (who hit the post) He should have done better when he wrongly chose to square it to RvP when he could have had a run at the defence but in the second half he was great. Good thing for me was that despite the fans being on his back most of the first half he carried on and didn't let his head go down and was rewarded.

    I know a few of you guys don't like him, and indeed now that Arshavin has gone he seems set to become the new scapegoat but in a better team he would be ripping defences apart. At the moment Opposition defenses know that if you keep Walcott quiet you'll shut down a large part of our attack. Just look at how different his game went when he was given time and space in the second half when Spurs were concentrating on getting a goal. Now imagine him in an Arsenal team who offerred more up front than just get it to Van Persie.

    Don't get me wrong, there is still room for improvement, His decision making is often awful and often he can frustrate but he's still young and he still has plenty of time to improve, and, imo the talent to do it. I stand by my comment that we'd regret it if he went elsewhere.

    Lately it`s been a rollercoaster ride being a Gooner. Fans of all teams have their moments of joy and despair. When you hit rocky times, bemoaning the state of affairs from the boardroom, manager to the players is the natural reaction and being a Gooner is no different. In our case we are moaning at a very high level. Worrying about not reaching the Champions League for the 16th season running whilst being heckled by idiots about lack of silverware, which we were in kissing distance of on many occasions, is .... well, it itches, for us. For them it`s like watching you shag Jennifer Aniston 16hrs long and wonder if it`ll ever end. Personally I´m enjoying the ride. Yesterday, under the circumstances, was up there with beating Barca, and not many teams can say that. Makes you want more...

    The best Arsenal number-cruncher out there has digested our financial state. http://swissramble.blogspot.com/2012...ery-dance.html More or less confirms the laymans view. The new stadium has obviously penned us back. The sponsorship is meagre. We have been a selling club. The war chest was never that big. We are giving average players top wages. The impact of non-CLeague won`t be too bad if we don`t reach 4th. If we don`t reach 4th the impact would be pretty bad because the fans are paying top prices. Whether the FFP rule influences any of our good foundation work would be debatable considering the tax-breaks on community investment leverages, etc. It will be better for us when the sponsorship deals run out in 2014 and the costs of running a top 4 side be passed to the corporates and not the fans.

    Only something for yellow press and unserious papers and blogs etc
    Podolski failed at Bayern Munich 2006-09 because he needs total emotional support by the coach and has to be the sole star of the club to feel good
    Daddy Wenger is surely not the manager to bring him to a top performance

    Andrey Arshavin Bags Goal & Assist In 2-0 Win Over Denmark


    Arsenal forward Andrey Arshavin put in a match winning performance as Russia beat Denmark 2-0 on Wednesday night. Arshavin has just left the Gunners to rejoin Zenit St Petersburg on loan until the end of the season and Arsene Wenger may be regretting his decision to let him go after seeing him grab as assist and score with a powerful 25-yard drive during a 2-0 win.

    Bloody typical when he leaves us the lazy little gimp plays out of his skin.
