Ronaldinho could very well have been exactly like Veron. I watched Veron for years in Serie A, and I genuinely consider him as good a player as Zinedine Zidane, but it didn't work out for him in the Premiership. Ronaldinho wears perfume, any player who does that might find it difficult playing in England. |

I like him, he has alot of talent. He is an excellent passer, and a brute. You can't really blame Solskjaer for a lack of form, it's more a lack of match fitness. He had a pretty serious knee injury. There was talk of him not actually playing this season at all, to allow it to fully recover. |

Djemba-Djemba looked like he could be quality before he got injured, I remember in the Charity Shield he was just picking up the ball and running straight at the opposition...not in a technical, Giggs-style running at your man way, I mean literallly running straight at them, smacking into them and running on with the ball because he's built like a brick shithouse.

Rodney Marsh and (I THINK) Frank Mcanalli (sp?) were having an arguement about who is bigger out of Everton and Man City, and Rodney Marsh was sticking up for City, saying Everton aren't, and he said 'Lets see what happens today when Wolves Play Everton, any half decent team will beat Wolves at the Molineux' and Mcanalli didn't even mention the fact Man United lost there, what an idiot. |

What I find funny about the whole season is that apart from Leeds, Tottenham have lost more games than anyone (19 to Leeds' 20)

Yeah, by tradition we beat them twice.
They would be equal is Jens Lehmenn learned how to control his temper. |

For our first team, it's pretty ideal on paper, but throw in a few injuries here and then, and our backup players aren't up to the standard that I think we need. I'm not saying they're all shite, just that we should have better. |

I know I'm stating the obvious here, but:
If Wenger had sold Ljungberg in the summer If Sol Campbell had missed a drug test and been suspended for 8 months If Wenger was aware of this but still signed a striker instead of a defender If Edu/Gilberto had been crocked and would have done well to have a year off and had to come back playing out of form If Arsene Wenger had a dispute with 2 men involving the frozen semen of a horse We'd probably be worse off than ManYoo are right now. |

Also looking at each individual bit.
Ljungberg has had a minimal impact on Arsenal's season, he has been highly disappointing. If Campbell had been out, I'm sure the defence would cope somehow, Cygan/Keown may not be the best, but they do a job. If Wenger had bought a striker instead of a defender, it would enforce Arsenal as a more attacking side, like Real Madrid, attack is the best form of defence. Edu has popped up with some key goals, yes, but Gilberto has been pretty crap this season, Vieira can cope with the extra load, and I'm sure someone else could pick up the reins. The whole Magnier/McManus thing is sh>ite, it shouldn't effect what happened on the pitch. Even if those things did happen to Arsenal, they wouldn't have lost 10 games this season, and they'd still be champions. |

Well it's up for debate.
Maybe substitute "Vieira" where I wrote "Ljungberg". Got carried away with the right wing thing. Never, NEVER put the words "Cygan" and "cope" in the same sentence ![]() Or maybe a side with 1 too many strikers and not enough defenders ![]() Whatever. ![]() Shouldn't. Does. Did. Again, it's up for debate |
