dont you just love how arsene replaces all his stars with young players every season and then when he has no trophies to show they blame it on having a young team, on being in a transition stage…hahaha…classic…

I love this “our future is more secure” tripe as well
Man Untd unlike arsenal are one of the biggest 2 football terams in the world with a huge fan base and the ability to generate huge income streams

Arsenal are one of the biggest 2 football clubs in london , hardly the same is it?

plus what happens when wenger decides to say goodbye and your stuck with a team full of foreigners who wiill all want to leave with him, not even old pat rice is there to guide the team , maybe you can bring back bruce rioch or george “the bung ” graham.

Arsenal fans need to realise 1 thing there is no such competition as “the we spent the least cup” now stop banging on about it.
And exactlty when are arsenal going to stop becoming a club in transition?

3 years and no trophies fergie rijkard jose grant etc would all have had the sack by now thats the pressure of managing a big club when you have to win something not a side who seem happt to finish 3rd or 4th with the odd cup run

the liverpool of the south

Stupid deluded Arsenal fans talking shit as usual. You have a sex wee when you mention about what an attractive team you are, but that counts for nothing when you win fuck all. You can dress it up as much as you like about how great your future is, but those players with potential will jump ship when you continue to win nothing, especially Fabregas (an established star I know) who has tasted success on the big stage – he’ll want plenty more of that, and if Arsenal don’t give him that, he will be off, contrary to his public committments to the club – you only have to look at Henry to know that words mean fuck all when the opportunity of better things are handed to you on a plate. We know how to marry the two entities, as our double success from last season shows.

Arsenal Fan not on a wind up….Obviously Jens is a wind up merchant, even to his own team-mates, but there is SOME truth in what he says.

In terms of technique Arsenal’s players are probably the best overall in the beg 3, particularly when compared to Chelsea’s grinding football…However I doubt anyone would despite Utd come very close in that respect (and have become increasingly so), and have other qualities such as experience, physical strength and bloody minded determination. Obviously I hope the Arse win the league, but I’d rather utd than chelsea or pool as you guys play really exciting football at your best, and are the only team good enough to trade attacking football with us. Apart from the odd white-wash of our semi-reserves at OT, the games between us are always fantastic to watch…it will be interesting to see how you guys do this year with Ronaldo acting like a twat, as I think Rooney already has a little too much pressure on him….I think it depends on whether Nani steps up, and whether Fergie wakes up to the fact that Anderson is now a better bet than Scholes, who’s legs have started going.

As for longer term, I’d say our future down south is more secure, simply because fergie can’t go on forever and the amount of debt the glazers have you in puts a lot of pressure to keep succeeding.

scott , could you please post an article on our current debt situation . i believe we’re pretty safe and dont have much to worry about , the glazers have been good owners so far , but i dont have facts to back it up . when rival fans taunt us about our debt it really gets my blood boiling (coz thats just about the only reason they can) . surely we will be better off than leedscum in a worst case scenario .

Thats a huge laugh :”football wise, Arsenal are FAR ahead of United and Chelsea”, they maybe far ahead of Chelsea whose main aim is to defend with 9men and have 2 strikers, but no way FAR ahead of United. Arsenal play beautiful football, but United play effective football; beautiful when it needs to be and ugly when the situation calls for it(e.g.vs. Barca), and it has worked for us, thats why we have waayy more trophies than Arsenal. Its really stupid, that the quotes were talking about football and technicality, but sadly the armchair muppet accountants, managed to turn it into a thread about debts and other rubbish. Anyway, its Lehman talking, he talks right out of his arse like some of the fans of his ex- team, not surprised he’ll say rubbish like this, even Anelka’s words about United made a little more sense.

isn’t this ironic where would arsenal have been in the 03/04 season if henry did not play or viera answer that question, another thing that is interesting if ronaldo is that good how come Portugal still have not won a trophy, he is the best player in the world shouldn’t Portugal be world champions and European champions. and another question henry was considered the best in the world 4 or 5 years ago how come they failed to do three thing the current united side have done, win the European cup win back to back titles and win a double of European and league title triumphs, there must have been something very special that won united these trophies.

Gunner77, wer’e having a discussion? since when is it wrong to argue/debate over something you cannot control? As per the petty insults, that can be attributed to me defending my club when opposing fans come on ‘OUR’ forum and start slating my club or it’s fans like you did.

Besides, where do you get off saying, All of you lot posting on here – Utd and Arsenal fans – should really look into ‘getting a life’ at some point!!!

If that’s not a petty insult aimed at me or any other posters here, I don’t know what is. That’s why I called you self-righteous, cuz you feel it appropriate to make comments like that when it suits you, but it’s a taboo when others do it.

I’m not usually one for harsh comments, but when provoked, what do you expect?
