I don’t think I’ve seen either Song or Denilson play as well as they did yesterday.

All good, wot wot.

You forgot Diaby. Was that on purpose because he is so shite or….?

You raised your game, Grabs. Very funny article. The squad looks good to me. I’m optimistic. If you want to see near euphoric enthusiasm, read ‘Holic at Goonerholic.

yes, john. and agree with the author of this fine piece.
too much hand-wringing and whinning.
but, as concerning your “if two [CB's] get injured we’re fucked”,comment. yes that’s true. but if – ifs and buts were candy and nuts, and we were kids, AND it were christmans, then we’d all be happy.

mind, if any squad in the charted universe lost two CB, they’d be surely be fucked as well. perspective lad, perspective!

We only have 3 decent CB, if two get injured we’re fucked. We need another CB so that clown Mikael never plays again. DM is the same scenario and I’m worried already about the amount of injuries that we have, Nasri 7 weeks, Rosicky (?) weeks, i know 2 apparently but with him who knows? With these guys so young you would think that injuries would be less common as supposed to players that are around the 28 – 32 mark..

lol..nice article…agree with you on that last statement about it finally starting off tomorrow…a win is almost a must..and even if by a zit on a dust particle of a chance we do lose i hope it’s because of a defensive error so it prompts the prof to buy someone..ya anyone would do..just sign for the sake of signing but do sign….up gunners!!! i love this club!!!!

We should do fine this year, but yes one or two additions and we could probably do much more in terms of trophies. Again, probably an extra two million or so that we refuse to pay. Every pence counts.
