The demise of Ashley Cole’s personal life has been quite enjoyable. How could he cheat on the almighty Geordie Princess with that trashy bunk-looking hairdresser? Hate Ashley or not, his wife is mint.

So glad he left for the money. What a truly unlikeable person. I continue to try and destroy him with a wicked tackle anytime I play against Chavski on Fifa 09.

I agree, and gunningforthetop don’t be so rude about poor Gael. If his name were Cashley Hole and he was the midget evil husband of new ‘National Pet’ Cheryl Cole, and he was a gigantic cunt,then I’d be worried about him.

But he’s called Gael Clichy, and I’m not. More likely I think at this stage is that Traore (or even Gibbs) gets moved on, unless one of them can be persuaded to play somewhere else (Eboue’s slot preferably. And by slot I mean slot)…

gunningforthetop — epic answer, I was thinking the same thing.

gibbs did indeed look pretty good- which means we can sell clichy just as he hits his prime and have an under developed gibbs play for a couple of season-it is what we do after all

This was the most I had watched Kieran Gibbs play and I was very impressed. He looks a serious prospect.

Who on God’s good earth would choose to eat in the Maypole – the fat sweaty cook evidently has never sampled the filth that he serves up. The only time I ate there was when I was charged £10 for a burger and chips portion that makes the Happy Meal look like a feast.

I think that it is time to assume that Arsenal are not in the financial position to make any signings of note and Wenger is only interested in the rehabilitation of his midfielders.

You’re right, of course. Although I think it’s actually Henry Churches?

Anyway. I blame my original Spanish teacher. Historians will note I’ve not updated the original text, so the error is there for ever.

Oh Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! back to arshavin will he wont he agent led stories that fill up more space than dark matter in the universe. Actually it was proven by a leading Scientist that were all the agents gagged and thrown into the ocean , carbon emisions into the atmosphere would actually halve. Also it would mean that the sea life would return because of the huge reserves of food available . The only mamal threatened would be the Humpback Whale – no longer would it be the largest mamal in the sea! Anyways , back to usual stuff about arshavin

Thanks soulrebel, glad you’re enjoying it- I completely agree that we’re missing something, but I’m just not convinced Arshavin is necessarily the answer. I’m prepared to believe that Wenger’s had his eye on him for a while, and that he’s a useful enough player but I think a few good displays at the Euros have massively overvalued him – I can’t believe people were even thinking about £20m.

It’s also true to say that the Russian league is not the Premiership by a long stretch. I think everyone’s hopped on this bandwagon because the first half of the season has been so frustrating, but we’re really not far off the pace in the league and we haven’t lost for yonks now.

That said we were crap yesterday. It’s an interesting one for sure.
