Arsenal v Aston Villa Match Thread

[Fergal]

Thanks for your efforts Emile you have achieved nothing in 65 minutes.

he has earned £1000 a minute....

Our decision making at set pieces is of league 2 standard, we have no clue, no leaders and no chance of scoring under this ginger spud!

[berneboy]

What's happened to our passing?
It is awful.
I suppose it is confidence but we look so poor.

[Summers]

Only just started watching.

What a shit goal to concede that first one.

[Can Gana Be Bettered!?!?]

I think we need Dave Cooper on this thread to tell everyone to stop pissing and moaning and get behind the team. Arsenal's confidence is sky-high having won six on the trot, what exactly were people expecting today?

My memory isn't what it once was but when was the last time we had a manager with a primary strategy of giving it a go irrespective of the opponents. Sir Brian? Ron? Fuck me, that's all I want. Even O'Leary the pug faced c*** was more adventurous.
Well, we could have at least given it a go.

O'Neill had his faults, and a few of them, but he would never have been as spineless as this guy.

What's even worse is that O'Neill has Sunderland on the verge of European qualification. I think 8th might be enough seeing as Liverpool are already in. His current club and his ex club couldn't be travelling in opposite directions at a more alarming rate.

here we go - a MON love in on a site that as a whole thought "he had taken us as far as he could" and should be sacked!!

Apart from the majority who felt that he deserved to continue. Every poll we had on this site about O'Neill had around at least 65-70% in favour of him continuing so I think it's a gross simplification, no in fact it's completely wrong, to say that the site as a whole wanted him sacked.

In my opinion, it's fair to say though that the majority of those people who saw MON as taking us as far as he can are also the most vocal on this site, so I can see where he's coming from.

Liverpool 1 Wigan 2

Tell you what, though, it's a lovely sunny day.

Is it going to be like this tomorrow? It'll help forget the football.

[Villanation]

Does anybody get the impression that McLiesh has used his secret weapon, lull the enemy into a false sense of security by boring them to death ensuring they lose there will to live, then we score and get back into the game.

Ah why didn't he shoot

Happened to it? it's been like this most of the season. We will NEVER improve under Mcleish(apologies for the caps not aimed at you, just my own frustration!)

I earnt about £150 for spending most the day in a classroom doing extra work with students. Life ain't fair.

Fog has blocked out the sun in Edinburgh. Feels appropriate.
