Arsenal had 0 shots lolololol best passing team in England had 59% of success. K.

Also, Fuck Roma aka we have an easy tie against Shaktar. Yeah Shaktar was actually play great stuff totally destroyed you.

Am I the only one that feels like the 2nd yellow was a bit harsh? We've seen it happen many times in the past and a warning was given first before ever throwing out the colours... It's not to say that Arsenal would have done anything even with RvP, but still.

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

All Arsenal fans are moaning about it yes.

 

[Flipmo]

Yeah, seeing it on forums.

On other note, De Rossi was a straight up piece of shit today. Dirty ass player, never liked him.

well i thought he was extremely stupid. he was on a yellow and he went and had a shot after the whistle went.

if that chance fell to him and not Bendtner, i think he would have scored.

and Roma are a useless team with that ponse playing centre half. what centre half goes around with hair like that. he looks like a girl. they should have had another player sent off too. Italian football is a shambles.

i was wondering who threw the punch. he hit him pretty hard too.

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

Yeah De Rossi is a total faggot for that, I just hated their arrogance in the buildup. Shaktar aren't a average side, they're a very good team who play football in an entertaining way.

Although I agree about Mexes, isn't Soto Kyriagos's hairstyle similar?

You're probably right, RvP would have scored if he had the chance and not Bendtner. As for shooting after the whistle, I'll give him the benefit of the doubt that he may not have heard it, or maybe he just didn't clue in. Still, that shit happens often and no cards are thrown out, then again - RvP should have been more careful after the first booking.

lmao @ Mexes

Yeah, De Rossi and Borriello were at Srna all night. Dunno what was up with that, even at one point at the 90' mark Dudu ran into it and pushed them off. Surprised to see that, usually Dudu doesn't get into that stuff, then again... Srna and him are close friends and NT partners.

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

The Barca players heard the whistle though didn't they? :S

 

[Flipmo]

True lol. Didn't he have the same problem during the WC? I seem to recall that...

lol. yea but he certainly doesnt look like a woman.

actually looking at the RVP sending off, it is quite harsh.

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

It is harsh. I just hate how everyone is going OTT about it. Focus more on the game, the first 55 minutes when it was 11 v 11 Arsenal didn't get a kick.

 

[Pittsey]

^^

It still changes the face of the game.


RVP wasn't just useful in attack. He was useful for defensive work.

11 vs 11 was difficult. 11 vs 10 impossible.

 

[tHuG $TyLe]

I'm not saying it didn't.

11 v 10 isn't impossible, Inter Milan did it very well. Arsenal obviously aren't as defensive as Inter but you can chalk that up to a flaw in Arsene's philosophy. The first half when it was 11 v 11, Barca dominated, Arsenal were no where in sight, for a team who are applauded for their passing, I don't think they strung 5 passes together.

Barca's pressing is an impressive thing. They are so tight. You have to have a high level of technical ability to play against them.

yea at the world cup all anyone heard was, buzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Seriously, how much of a piece of shit can you be to just throw an elbow like that.

Indeed. There isn't a better technical side in England than Arsenal. Which is my point, Barca were just miles better which should spoken about more and ironically if it wasn't for Almunia it would've been 5 or 6.

They targetted Srna the whole game, Srna seems like a faggot though, playing up to the crowd when a simple corner has been given.
