Arsenal v Olympiacos - Wednesday 28 September - 19:45

[Master Splinter]

Must win.

Probably just Arshavin in for Walcott.

RVP to get another brace. 3-1.

[Cripps_orig]

Whats wrong with Theo?

[Xhaka Can’t]

He hobbled off after going down with no one near him with a couple of minutes left.

But don't worry, our medical team are on the case.

[Master Splinter]

Went down towards the end of the game. Possibly a hamstring strain, but Wenger was unsure.

Out for the season, in short.

[Cripps_orig]

Do we have a holding head in hands and shaking it smiley?

[fakeyank]

He is joining JW till end of year at least

[Marc Overmars]

Vital in Europe that we pick up maximum points at home. This group looks like it could be fairly tight so we can't afford any early slip ups.

[Ollie the Optimist]

journos on twitter saying walcott not bad injury could be back for this

[Cripps_orig]

Theo out for this :(

Twitter :lol:

Koscielny is also out :dance: as is Gervinho :coffee:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Oxocube must surely start.

[Cripps_orig]

Sagna Mertesacker Djourou Santos

I should think Gibbs will play instead of Andy 2 Saints to be honest, after a clean sheet seems wise to keep the same back 4

[server too busy!]

Only problem with that logic is Djourou

[Master Splinter]

Djourou is also injured, isn't he?

Hopefully he is.

Miquel usually looks assured and he's four billion times better than Djourou, so it's surely a no-brainer.

I have a feeling Wenger will play Rosicky instead of Chamberface. Would be nice to finally see Ju in a proper game.

[Marc Overmars]

Ju is in danger of becoming a bit of a myth really, strange how he hasn't even made the bench yet for a league game.

[Japan Shaking All Over]

Theo out for this :(

Twitter :lol:

Koscielny is also out :dance: as is Gervinho :coffee:

So who is taking Kos's place. . . .Squid, please tell me he is still out, not in the squad. . . .has something to do. . . .anything will do :pray:

[Master Splinter]

Miquel injured too :haha:.

So that's possibly five central defenders out. Only at Arsenal.

Most likely Song at CB then, unless Djourou is fit.

[Edinburgh Gooner]

Arsene Wenger is giving serious consideration to resting Robin van Persie and Mikel Arteta for Arsenal's Champions League clash against Olympiakos, Goal.com can reveal.

:doh:

I dont see the point. The only reason Arteta joined us was to play in the CL so he wont be happy not playing and RVP can rest when hes injured for 6 months later on in the season

[gunnerrrrr]

:doh:

i woould rest RVP to see how the Korean plays.....a proper striker

Errm did you see the 'Goal.com can reveal' bit. Goal.com can take a hike, tbh.

[fakeyank]

This match is on Fox soccer plus and comcast does not have that channel. Clueless buggers! :angry:

Where can I find a stream? I hear myp2p.eu has been closed

[Marc Overmars]

We're winning this 2-0.

[Master Splinter]

We're winning this 2-0.

Who scored?

[Dog Toffee]

Jesus christ, Theo, Kozza, and Gervinho injured already and will miss the derby next week.

[Cripps_orig]

All 3 are due back v Spurs

[Dog Toffee]

Wenger said theo is just better than '50-50', hardly set in stone then is it?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Skjhfhfhfy, Santos, Mertesacker, Song, Sagna, Rosicky, Arteta, Frimpong, Oxocube, Arshavin, Chakma.

[fakeyank]

Jesus christ, Theo, Kozza, and Gervinho injured already and will miss the derby next week.

Jesus Christ is injured too! :faint:

Anyone can get injured under Wenger

AW :bow:

[Marc Overmars]

RVP rested?

Man you better hope this doesn't backfire Vinger.

Oxocube. :popcorn:

Good opportunity for Chakma to rebuild his shattered reputation.

[Master Splinter]

Goal.com was half right.

Goal.com :bow:.

Goal.com doubters :pal:.

[Marc Overmars]

Just seen Song is at CB as well.

5 CB's at the club and we're still down to the bare bones. :doh:

[Master Splinter]

5 CB's at the club and we're still down to the bare bones. :doh:

I'm pretty sure Cahill or Jagielka would be out for the season too if we had bought them.

In short, we're cursed.

And cursed well.

[fakeyank]

Just seen Song is at CB as well.

5 CB's at the club and we're still down to the bare bones. :doh:

Kos and Squid are not football players.. just in case you counted them!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Just seen Song is at CB as well.

5 CB's at the club and we're still down to the bare bones. :doh:

Well, I imagine Song will be at CB hence how I typed the names. However if you take it for granted how SSN read the names out, Rosicky will be filling in there. :bow:

[Marc Overmars]

Is RVP carrying a knock?

If he isn't then I never understand this resting business. He is in-form and amongst the goals, why deny him an opportunity to continue the momentum?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Nah, it'll be a resting thing. Although he's on the bench.

[Master Splinter]

Fabianski

Vermaelen
Koscielny
Miquel
Djourou

Diaby
Wilshere
Benyanoon

Walcott
Afobe
Gervinho

+ Squillaci.

Arsenal's injured XI :bow: (apart from Fabianski).

[Joker]

Looking at that lineup there's no way we're winning tonight IMO.

[Ollie the Optimist]

Is RVP carrying a knock?

If he isn't then I never understand this resting business. He is in-form and amongst the goals, why deny him an opportunity to continue the momentum?

tbf he has played pretty much ever minute so far so a rest wont be too bad for him, and we do have the scum on sunday so big game there

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Arsenal: Szczesny, Sagna, Mertesacker, Song, Andre Santos, Frimpong, Arteta, Rosicky, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Arshavin, Chamakh.

Referee: Carlos Velasco Carballo (Spain)

[GP]

Looking at that lineup there's no way we're winning tonight IMO.

You must be delighted.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Looks like Hayley McQueen was told to ditch the glasses and get the gazongas out.

[Marc Overmars]

Looks like Hayley McQueen was told to ditch the glasses and get the gazongas out.

She was advised well.

Not delighted, just frustrated by yet another massive selection mistake by Wenger.

[Ollie the Optimist]

what will you say if we win

[Syn]

We'll win by a couple.

[Cripps_orig]

So RVP doesn't start?Goal :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

How's that affected Arsenal?

Wenger: "Yes." :haha:

Wenger's clumsy English. :bow:

[Joker]

what will you say if we win

I'd praise the team because given the players we have playing today, to be able to get a win will be quite an achievement.

[GP]

what will you say if we win

Some bullshit probably.

[Marc Overmars]

Beers ready.

Come on Arsenal!

[Master Splinter]

Some bullshit probably.

Probably?

[Niall_Quinn]

Arsenal: Szczesny, Sagna, Mertesacker, Song, Andre Santos, Frimpong, Arteta, Rosicky, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Arshavin, Chamakh.
Subs: Fabianski, Park, van Persie, Ramsey, Jenkinson, Gibbs, Coquelin.

Total shit. Wenger showing his disregard for the opposition again.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Champions League music.

:bow:

[Master Splinter]

Total shit. Wenger showing his disregard for the opposition again.

Only RVP would make a huge difference.

9 first-team players out.

Or are Ramsey and Gibbs suddenly world-beaters?

[KESSLER]

WTF has Arshavin done to his hair?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Good chance for Olympiakos.

[Cripps_orig]

Frimpongs a bit shit

[McNamara That Ghost...]

OXOCUBE!!!!

[Master Splinter]

Neville Chamberlain!!!!!!!!!!!

[Cripps_orig]

1-0OxfaceGood goal

[Niall_Quinn]

Please let this kid be the real deal. Fabulous play.

[fakeyank]

OAC >>> Theo... Arsene, start this ugly m'fucka in the PL!

[Keith]

Great play by chamakh for the goal, he took the defence out of it.

[hymppi]

what?? we're 1 up already?
:faint:
how was the goal built?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Oxocube. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Chakma heads the ball the way the corner came, roughly.

[Syn]

Can someone describe the goal?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Good covering from Frimpong. Oxocube had given it away.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Off the line from Arteta!

:wacko:

[Master Splinter]

Arteta :bow:.

[Cripps_orig]

Brilliant defending from Arteta

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Can someone describe the goal?


Arsenal goal: European football? Easy. What an introduction to the Champions League from Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, the youngster collecting Alex Song's raking through-ball, bursting inside and then crashing a low left-foot effort home off the post. Brilliant.

Unusually accurate for the BBC.

[Thierrymon]

Arteta saving us, clearing off the line brilliantly.

[Syn]

Unusually accurate for the BBC.

Sounds great - can't wait to see it.

Cheers.

[Thierrymon]

First spell of pressure for olympiakos.

[KESSLER]

Shitmakh has made a good start.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

I feared Mertesacker was going to add to our own goal tally then. Did well to lift it up in the air for Sjghfnenny.

[Edinburgh Gooner]

They can ride us, I wanna see how the defence holds up. Smudger (if thats him co commentating on ss2) is givin us a hrad time. I think we are coping well. Song looks good at CD, Oxo looks like he could run after a train and jump on. Great goal, we can push on and hopefully score some more and defend as a unit.

[Master Splinter]

I think Coquelin would be more suited to a European game like this than Frimpong.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

SANTOS!!!!

[Niall_Quinn]

Well done Santos. Chamakh is laughably shit.

[Master Splinter]

Santos!!!!!!!!!

[Niall_Quinn]

Song looks good at CD, Oxo looks like he could run after a train and jump on. Great goal, we can push on and hopefully score some more and defend as a unit.

As far as I can tell we don't have a defence in this particular match. Nobody marking, nobody closing down the space. Really poor. They're walking through as at times, and they're not that good.

[Master Splinter]

Sagna :bow:.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Did that corner take Chakma out? :unsure:

[fakeyank]

Santos looks to be better than Gibbs

[KESSLER]

Did that corner take Chakma out? :unsure:

:haha: that was hilarious

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Chakma scuffs one way wide.

[Niall_Quinn]

Chamakh off, Gunnersaurus on - we need a bit more of a goal threat.

[Master Splinter]

Chamakh :lol:.

He's at least involved so far today though.

[Edinburgh Gooner]

As far as I can tell we don't have a defence in this particular match. Nobody marking, nobody closing down the space. Really poor. They're walking through as at times, and they're not that good.

The fact they are shit gives me confidence lol. This game could be used as a trainin vid. "Look at the space you left. If he was any good, we'd be fucked coz of you."

[McNamara That Ghost...]

2-1.

[Master Splinter]

:haha:

[Niall_Quinn]

Good God. What sort of defending is that. Fucking awful. Every time the forward players dig us out the fucking defence drags us back down. Fucking hopeless. 2-1

[fakeyank]

We dont need a defensive coach :rolleyes:

[server too busy!]

Chamakh misses a good chance. He plays too deep to be our striker, almost a midfielder. I think Ju should have started.

AOC doesn't look as quick as I expected.

FFS sloppy goal conceded from a corner!!

[Niall_Quinn]

Chesney having to do it all himself - defence totally missing.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Frimpong. :bow:

[Niall_Quinn]

Glorious FK by Arteta, right into the box. Nothing there to capitalise.

[fakeyank]

People can blame the board all they like but the defense is not going to be solved by Kroenke, Gazidis or PHW. That is purely the old cunt AW's fault... fuckin how many shit defensive performances do you need before you accept that we need a defensive coach!?! This is baffling!!

[Asthmatic Kitty]

arteta is fucking class

our defence is an absolute shambles! feel sorry for shes

[Niall_Quinn]

Nothing £100million invested in the team couldn't sort out, which is roughly the amount this cuntish board has avoided spending by hook or by crook since the stadium move. As long as fans keep excusing these cunts then we'll maybe edge it in a shoot-out with Olympiacos but were going nowhere in the greater scheme of things.

[Master Splinter]

Santos is pretty bad.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Rosicky booked. :rolleyes: Stupid challenge.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ibagaza decides not to go for goal, for some reason.

[Ollie the Optimist]

wonder what cripps will think of chamakh miss? still a quaility striker? hes fucking dog shit, one on one and fucks it up

[Niall_Quinn]

Rosicky booked. :rolleyes: Stupid challenge.

His best moment of the match, tbf. He seems to have lost his 1 yard of pace.

[Maestro]

We've been shocking defensively, utterly shocking

[Newguy]

Can someone please tell me why we have to have everyone back for corners with absolutely no outlet?

[Niall_Quinn]

We've been shocking defensively, utterly shocking

Stop trying to minimise how poor we've been.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Very good tackle from Song.

[server too busy!]

Santos is pretty bad.

?? Whats he done so terribly, seems pretty decent to me.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Rosicky plays a ball to a teammate still down on the ground.

[Niall_Quinn]

Fantastic cross from the byline by Ox. Rosicky you cunt!

[Master Splinter]

Great play from Oxface.

100 million can sort a lot of things. We had a back four of toure-senderos-Eboue-Flamini at the back that has the world record for most minutes without a goal in CL... that doesnt cost you 100 million dollars. Some sort of tactical nous or even accepting the fact that we need a defensive coach can solve our problems. The board is NOT to blame for this.. I know you want to blame the establishment and the owners/CEO's for all the world problems (most rightly so) but this is not one of them. This is purely AW being a thick fuck..

[Maestro]

Chezza has had enough of this porous backline, feel sorry for the kid

[Niall_Quinn]

Fantastic cross from the byline by Ox. Rosicky you cunt!

Oh, Ox beat his man too. This kid looks to be everything Walcott isn't. Real deal? :pray:

Not sure anyone remains who would dispute Wenger is (somehow) clueless defensively. All I'm saying is, Wenger's shortcomings easily acknowledged, there's a lot more to our problems.

[KESSLER]

Frimpong isnt that good tbh should of played the Coq

[McNamara That Ghost...]

2-1 half time.

[Newguy]

Arshavin has to come off, shocking performance so far

[Master Splinter]

Rosicky and Arshavin have been awful.

Mertesacker is carrying the whole defense and midfield by himself.

[Cripps_orig]

Frimpong isnt that good tbh should of played the Coq

Frimpong has been shite

2-1 HT

Good start from Oxface. Disappeared after that goal though for a while. Came back in to it later on.

Chamakah played a part in both goals :bow: Should have scored though but played well overall.

Defensively, :lol: That is all

Wenger, just fuck off

[Syn]

Oh, Ox beat his man too. This kid looks to be everything Walcott isn't. Real deal? :pray:

We'll coach that reckless enterprising play out of him soon enough. If he's not taking 100 touches and then passing it 5 yards to someone else (preferably an Arsenal player), he's obviously not playing to the team's strengths.

[Marc Overmars]

Rubbish as usual. Can't defend, can't string any passes together and therefore can't create any chances.

Where has all the quality gone?

On the plus side, we're winning. 45 mins away from a big upset. :dance:

[Maestro]

14 members and 1 mod on here, let's have a riot

defensively shambolic, 2 good goals otherwise meh..

[server too busy!]

Bring on Coq for Frimpong and Ju for Arshavin and RvP for Chamakh.

I think this formation is what causes us the biggest problems, LB/RB always caught out of position meaning we are always overrun. Bring 442 back and use the strikers as the outlet.

[Maestro]

Rubbish as usual. Can't defend, can't string any passes together and therefore can't create any chances.

this

[fakeyank]

Not sure anyone remains who would dispute Wenger is (somehow) clueless defensively. All I'm saying is, Wenger's shortcomings easily acknowledged, there's a lot more to our problems.

Oh yes, agree. We have tons of problems in the club but defense is Arsene's problem alone. We have Sagna (best RB IMO), Per (German intl), Song (above avg CB) and a Brazilian intl playing LB.. we shouldnt be looking like a deer caught in headlights whenever the ball is with Olympiakos. Forget Olympiakos, we shouldnt look as clueless as that against Blackburn.

Funny thing is.. as soon as you enter emirates stadium, you read "the deeper the foundations (defense), the stronger the fortress (team)". And we as a team have the shakiest foundation.. go figure!

[Fats]

Chump is the most pointless forward we have ever had,

Bring back Jeffers tbh

[Niall_Quinn]

HT 2-1

Oxo looks great when we can get him in the game. He has pace, can beat his man, gets to the byline, can cross, can shoot. Fuck me - did we luck out here and pick up a decent player by mistake? The board could get a lot of money for this guy in a couple of years.

Obviously (and all joking aside) Chamakh is just garbage. How many more games does this guy get before we buy a decent striker?

But even worse than Chamakh is our defence. A total shambles. I can clearly see why we aren't going for a defensive coach - none will come because they know the task has become impossible. Zero defending, Chesney exposed over and over again. At least the young kid has done well where the experienced pros have been utterly shown up.

Rosicky is finished as a player. One good performance a season is not enough.

Arteta is good in the middle but nobody is making any runs or making themselves available when he's looking to distribute.

Frimpong has spent most of the half struggling with positional problems.

All in all we should be several goals up but our long standing weak point, the defence, has kept Olympicos in the game and has given them enough encouragement they may even pinch something.

[Xhaka Can’t]

Oh, Ox beat his man too. This kid looks to be everything Walcott isn't. Real deal? :pray:
Yep, that is 2014's big transfer payday.

[Marc Overmars]

For their goal, how was that cunt able to stroll into the box and head the ball as if he was in training?

I've pretty much given up all hope of ever seeing defensively sound Arsenal under Wenger again.

[fakeyank]

Oh, Ox beat his man too. This kid looks to be everything Walcott isn't. Real Madrid deal? :pray:

There.. just corrected it

[Niall_Quinn]

There.. just corrected it

Picky bastard! OBVIOUSLY that's what I meant!

[Marc Overmars]

I feel sorry for Chesney. You can see the look of despair on his face everytime they stroll through us.

[Niall_Quinn]

I feel sorry for Chesney. You can see the look of despair on his face everytime they stroll through us.

Great for his CV though - "Worked my way up the HARD way, played behind the Arsenal defence."

[WengerISaLizard]

slim lead, we need to control this game

arteta and oxo looked good, we need to rely less on rosicky and arshavin this season, they dont pull their weight at all

[Joker]

Pathetic performance again. Defensively we look shambolic, and Olympiacos look as if they could score at any moment. The passing has been very poor, with a number of misplaced passes despite players being under no pressure on the ball. Chamakh has looked garbage as usual, while Sagna looks asleep. We're hugely lucky to be leading 1-0 and unless we improve dramatically, they will equalise.

[Cripps_orig]

2nd half on

[Marc Overmars]

Hopefully we are as clinical as we were in the first half.

Score from a couple of attempts then hope for the best after.

Come on Arsenal!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Good effort from Mirallas.

[Master Splinter]

Should have been three.

[Cripps_orig]

Oxface one on one saved

Great pass to him by Chamakh

Eye of the needle that was

[Master Splinter]

Good play from Chamakh again.

[WengerISaLizard]

unlucky first touch from oxo took it away from him

come on arsenal

[WengerISaLizard]

glad to see this players are not relying on their defence to close this out

[Cripps_orig]

Good block by some Greek defender

[WengerISaLizard]

this is quite an odd sight....am i seeing passion?

[Master Splinter]

We're playing really well in this half so far.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Good work from Chakma there, Arshavin tamely gives it away.

[Master Splinter]

Arshavin :doh:.

Chamakh :bow:.

[Niall_Quinn]

Total cowardice from the ref there. Definite second yellow for foul on Oxo.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Oxocube was definitely shoved there.

[Niall_Quinn]

Fucking Chamakh is defending for them now! Good block, you pratt.

[Master Splinter]

Mertesacker has been outstanding.

[super kolo toure]

anyone got a stream?

[Mr. Lahey]

i have just tuned in...who scored for us?

[Cripps_orig]

i have just tuned in...who scored for us?

Oxface and Santos

[Cripps_orig]

End of the road for Rosicky tbh

Time to get him off

[WengerISaLizard]

Fucking Chamakh is defending for them now! Good block, you pratt.

your being to harsh, his actually trying to play football tonight

[Cripps_orig]

Torosidis hits the bar

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Torosidis hits the bar!

[Master Splinter]

Arshavin, Rosicky and Frimpong are messing everything up.

What a strike!

[Mr. Lahey]

Oxface and Santos

thanks.

nice to see the new blood scoring.

[WengerISaLizard]

End of the road for Rosicky tbh

Time to get him off

yep, he need to be the first substitution

[Cripps_orig]

your being to harsh, his actually trying to play football tonight

Hes had a good game.

It'll take some time but eventually you'll learn to ignore NQ on all things Chamakh.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Oxocube off, Ramsey on.

[Niall_Quinn]

Lucky 5 mins for us, including a pen when Oxo handled in the box. Looks like the ref has evened it out after failing to send off their FB.

Oh Fuck! Oxo off. It must be Wenger's mission to purge all enjoyment from out football.

Chamakh still on. LOL!

[Cripps_orig]

Ramsey on

Oxface off

Decent game from him

Good we have an understudy for Theo

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Much better from Arshavin.

[Cripps_orig]

Good save from the keeper to deny Arshavin

Hes looked better this half

[Master Splinter]

Arshavin should score.

[Niall_Quinn]

Hes had a good game.

It'll take some time but eventually you'll learn to ignore NQ on all things Chamakh.

Ach is probably right. Chamakh is obviously a great player. :wacko:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Chakma off, RVP on.

[Niall_Quinn]

Arshavin should score.

He should lose weight too.

Shitcunt off after another joke performance and RvP on.

[Master Splinter]

Chamakh involved in all our good play today.

Good game from him.

[Cripps_orig]

Chamakh off for RVP

Good game from Chamakh today. Excellent 2nd half

[Cripps_orig]

Chamakh involved in all our good play today.

Good game from him.

Il go first

NQ :haha:

[super kolo toure]

stream??

[Niall_Quinn]

And now a newsflash from the real world. Chamakh utterly ineffective as a striker again - who could have known?

[Niall_Quinn]

Il go first

NQ :haha:

The stupid cunt plays in behind the main striker when HE'S supposed to be the fucking main striker.

[Cripps_orig]

Melanie Slade :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Arteta leaves one on them. :bow:

Booked for his trouble though.

[WengerISaLizard]

Melanie Slade :bow:

the reason theo fakes most of his injurys

[Xhaka Can’t]

Ach is probably right. Chamakh is obviously a great player. :wacko:

Thats done it for me.

Consider yourself ignored on all things Sham ache.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Mertesacker does like booting it clear, which is good.

[Xhaka Can’t]

Melanie Slade is better than Chamakh :bow:

yep

[Niall_Quinn]

Fucking hell Rosicky. He fucks it up (again) and blames Ramsey.

[Cripps_orig]

yep

Not after todays performance

[WengerISaLizard]

Mertesacker does like booting it clear, which is good.

wouldnt you, knowing the quality of your fellow defenders?

can't trust them for shit, hopefully we can keep it solid for the rest of this match

[Cripps_orig]

This ref is shit

[Cripps_orig]

Gibbs is due

[Cripps_orig]

Arshavin off for Gibbs

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Arshavin off, Gibbs on.

[Niall_Quinn]

Gibbs coming on for some reason. Arshavin off.

Hanging on at home against Olympicos :bow:

[Xhaka Can’t]

What a dive, and what a sucker the ref is.

[Power n Glory]

65% passing completion for Arshavin. Shocking.

[Master Splinter]

Hanging on at home against Olympicos :bow:

Who are Olympicos?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Djebbour booked.

[Niall_Quinn]

Who are Olympicos?

You'll be told when and if it becomes necessary.

[Master Splinter]

Pointless Rosicky Turn :bow:.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

The ref had his whistle in his mouth for ages yet didn't actually blow it.

Practising his sucking for when he goes in to the Greek dressing room after the game

[McNamara That Ghost...]

2-1 full time.

Arsenal. :bow:

Three in a row. :yikes:

[Master Splinter]

Arsenal :bow:.

[Niall_Quinn]

2-1 FT

Extremely uninspiring apart from a glimmer of hope in the form of Oxo. Saying the defence is garbage would be very kind.

[Unai Tea]

Yay

[Marc Overmars]

Pointless Rosicky Turn :bow:.

:lol:

The way he turns away sometimes from his marker, you think you're watching Messi.

Then he darts forward about 15 yards and doesn't know what the fuck to do.

You'll be told when and if it becomes necessary.
