^^Seems like we have a Liverpool version of Socod_Badne, or is it the same guy?

or calling people a "voyeur"

Sevilla were brushed aside after some cocky remarks from one of their players, Renato. But more importantly, I come back from Taraweeh, put the news on and find that Jose Mourinho has been sacked by Chelsea. Even though I don't like the fellow, there's no denying he is a great manager. It has got to be the dumbest move of the Chelsea leadership by getting rid of a man who has done so much in such a short time. Maybe Roman was envious of Arsenal and told Jose to start playing great football because he was tired of just winning things normally, he doesn't know though that it takes patience for that to happen. It seems like chairmen want to get rid of managers as soon as things start to go even slightly wrong, there is no more faith in managers nowadays and loyalty seems rare nowadays on both sides, sad times. On the bright side, my hometown Leicester FC let Nottingham Forest score a goal as a kind gesture after the original game was abandoned at half-time because LCFC player Clive Clark collapsed on the pitch. Forest could have let the game carry on, which they were winning 1-0, but agreed to postpone and in the replay were allowed to go 1-0 up. The idea was proposed minutes before the game by chairman Milan Mandaric. Sportsmanship is not dead yet

Don't worry, we'll rep it for the Premier League, its only right that the team at the top of the table should restore the Premier League pride.

Good to see you back W11, where you been bro?

Champions League has started. Need I say more?

What about Adebayor, is he finding form or what? Early contender for GOTS. If he finished his chances in the derby, he could have had 4 easily. Arsenal aren't dependant on Cesc, they depend on eachother and play as a team, he keeps the team ticking and is certainly on of the best players in the line-up. But make no mistake, Hleb or Rosicky could do the same job in the centre, so when Cesc has an average game the others take the plaudits.

Skipper wlc, state your allegiances, if it's Arsenal you're my nxt best friend, if not, then you can stay with northener in the "others" hut. I disagree with you guys, Torres is a young class act. He adapted so quick to the EPL than any other spanish player, he doesn't complain and seems different to the other La Liga imports such Reyes or even Baptista. He is up for a fight, he has changed his style of play and doesn't stay down after a tackle but he gets up gets back into the fight. He is still a raw talent and we're going to see a lot of him in the coming years and I could only hope he was an Arsenal player. Btw, top of the table after 3 years, tho it might not last long its still a great feeling.

^^Are you talking to yourself Norf, don't worry you still have a chance of going top again. Fabrigas (Arsenal)….. Over-rated (Cmon he cant be a substitute for Viera) Does this still count? This topic should be restarted, to see the actual effect of our "analysis" after 2 years.

^I have been around, only came back from Syria a week ago and was surprised to see that we actually won our first game. Liverpool seem to be on a serious spending spree, what do you think that means for your team?

Any signs of Mr 187 in his out-of-date Henry shirt? Thats the exact reason why I only use my name on any shirts. So the slaggin match continues, it is amazing Man Utd are not giving a good pop, where is there rep? As for chelsea, well chelsea will be chelsea, all this nonsense JM is chatting about how chelsea are playing different football is a buncha boll0cks. Be fair to him tho, he knows how to use the media to his favour. Arsenal are better this season, seeing pre-season,tho that is not much, i can see a improvement in a lot of players such as, Clichy, Eboue(cut out the diving), Diaby, Walcott etc. They are all players that AW expects a lot from now, because they are not kids no more. Especially Diaby, whom I believe we will see a lot from this season. No predictions tho or speculation as to what we will win, I have my owns thoughts but I'd rather tell you guys, that I'll see how it goes.

I hope us Arsenal fans don't have to endure another verbal battering this season, I really, really dont want that, I really really really dont want that.

I thought Henry was overrated according to many of you so-called football fans and some of you even went as far as saying Arsenal played better without him and now that he's gone you are quick to change tune...What happened? Bob, you took the words right out of my mouth. Henry is the best player to have played in the premier league full stop. Wenger has never been proven wrong on big transfers like this. Nicolas Anelka won't replace Henry. No matter what the papers are speculating, no one knows who he will bring. Ryan Babel won't come to Arsenal this summer. Fabregas will probably leave in a few years time. Grimandi will be the new Director of Football. Wenger will sign a new contract, but not any time soon.

^^^Norf, it seems like you got quite a fanbase over there. The match tommorrow is unpredictable, because liverpool + champions league = surprises. I was just going through the football websites and it seems as though everyone is backing AC milan to beat you this time and exact revenge. The thing is, people were saying that in 2005 aswell, so you never know. Anyways, I hope we see a much better game than what I was watching on Saturday. The last 2 finals liverpool have been involved in, 2005 CL and 2006 FA cup, has had atleast 6 goals and penalties, so more of the same and you have my red support for 2moro only. Grill the pizzas or whatever.

^^^^Soma join the exit crew, I know you're team will be ready for sunday, or have you forgot? The Special One?? More like The Deluded One.

^^^BOOOOMM!!!!!!

^^^^Lol, Anything goes miyaa urban?

^^^Lol, I see you guys are still going about your business. But really, this goes to show that Queen don't give a damn about clubs being english or not, she picks the "fanciest" football thats played. I think her support goes way back to the Charlie George, Limpar, Rocastle et al days, maybe even pat rice's days. We do have english players, Walcott and Hoyte but thats about it. The reserves are predominantly young english dudes tho.

What happened to my brothers, Bob and 187, they are not parcipating in this thread, I wonder why. Their Vice Chairman is gone and it seems like Wenger is following him on the exit; I hope he stays. Lol, dnt get too excited Soma, wenger is not going anywhere and the vice-chairman is coming back with that American take-over. Im not participating because.... (I dnt know why). But, bob told me he is hibernating for a while, so he has a legitimate excuse. He doesnt exactly know how long he will be hibernating for but I'm guessing till the title is decided. The gap is only 3 points now, and it seems as though United are getting injury after injury. I think chelsea have a good chance, but I can still see Man u winning it, I'd give it a 50-50 chance for both teams. Really and truly Man U should have sealed the title by now, but they put themsleves under some pressure. PS: Did anyone hear Mourinho say, that democracy does not exists anymore. This dude is hilarious, and he really means it aswell.

This boy is something else....... Urban, don't mention giggs.

^^^^I'm waiting for you guys to slip so we can steal 3rd place.

my my my my, if any of you tell me that what I was watching is football, I dont believe it. I dont believe it at all. No chance.

What is going on with Arsenal? Losing has become a trend this days! But the good news is there will be a takeover of the club. Good luck to them. Soma, is that always a good thing? Everyone moans about arsenal not having any english players, but arsenal remain 1 of the few english owned teams aound. But, it is very likely that a takeover will happen because for some reason or another, Wenger seems to be warming to this idea whereas before he was against it.

AJ, bruv I'm just laughing my socks off in your efforts to "try" winding people up. It's clear and has been for a while, that your interest in discussing football is not the reason why you frequent this forum. I tried to tell you to chill out, relax and discuss football in peace, but it is obvious you aint down for that. Bob might let it slide, but I'm gonna tell you like it is, brother.

^^^Yeh, where is winger? He was here bragging when his team were deadbeats, now they takin over and he's not here?
