What the heck was up with Arshavin? I don't remember him being that bad.
 
The one where Walcott went down in box and Bender was offside? if so you're an idiot.

Yes that is the one I am on about. No I am not an idiot get your facts yeah before you start trolling. The penalty shout before the actual soft penalty was offside because Bentner had touched the ball after the initial foul in an offside position so if you can't understand that then you sir are the 'idiot'.

Well done to Leeds, probably deserved a win - Arsenal pretty shocking going forward with Arshavin still out of form and Bendtner missing a host of chances. Denilson was so so today, made a couple of good passes forward and forced two good saves but obviously gave away the penalty.. Squillaci was poor IMO - didn't look confident or strong or intelligent. Lastly, obviously a bias view but the first penalty shout was stonewall tbh and the offside infringement came after the foul the second was a little dodgy but the previous incident obviously influenced him - There's clearly a tug back on his arm and he tries to stay on his feet but loses his balance and goes down, that IMO is a penalty.
 
^Don't reply to him (burv) please, everyone knows we should have had both pens, lets just forget it now.
 
If they played the way they did against Arsenal, shouldn't worry about them scoring any goals :)

haha yeah :) i think they'll attack us tho, they just defended against arsenal :(

not true.
 
To be fair, Bendtner is the least clinical striker we have, Chamakh isn't great but at least he gets into the right positions. I'd really favour RVP, Chamakh then Vela since Vela is lightning quick and clinical, plus forgets he needs to drop deep to help in midfield since he tries so hard to break the off-side trap all the time - he just tends to drifts in and out of games, hopefully something he'd lose with more regular competitive games.

Arshavin has been poor all season, he just isnt making good decisions, 9 times out of 10 I see him dribble it straight into somebody, just stick your head down and run isn't how you get it done.. Squillaci is actually a big suprise for me, I thought he'd be solid, but turns out he's been poorer than Djourou who's really starting to gain form amd looks like a solid strong player who can challenge, something we've been lacking with Verma out. I can definitely see Djourou/Verma as our first choice centrebacks with Koscielny as the 3rd choice, so much better than Senderos !
