BIG MATCH ANALYSIS
One word describes this encounter: Disappointing.
A draw would have been a fair result as both teams gave away possession to easy. At times it was hard to believe the Arsenal players had actually met before so terrible was their distribution to each other. We simply bottled the best chance we have had in a long time to beat what was a very average Utd side.
The two pivotal moments in the game came via Almunia's nonsensical fowl on Rooney and later Diaby's amazing headed blooper into his own net. Ryan Giggs was lauded for providing the balls that lead to Utd's two goals. I would rather laud the Referee's failure to be impartial and Diaby's shocking heading ability. Make no bones about it Utd were lucky. But as I am fond of saying, every team players the lucky card sometime in the season and Utd have played theirs. This is good news. They won't get off the hook as easy as this against teams with fully fit squads and players who can control the ball easier.
Arshavin was sliced down by Fletcher. The ref ignored appeals for a penalty and so incensed was Arshavin that he took the ball 25 yards out and let go a rocket that nearly broke the keepers hands. That's what we have missed. When Rosicky is fit and these two little dynamo's play together its going to be explosive. Eboue lived up to his 50/50 reputation by following his man of the match display against Celtic in midweek with a display today that was more what we have come to expect of him, totally fucking useless.
Ramsey again looked out of his depth and nervous when he came on. Denilson who is supposedly from Brazil looked light weight in midfield. I would not be surprised if he is actually from the Isle of Man. He has had nearly 2 years to blend into the position but despite that he has not convinced me he deserves his place. Diaby showed some class touches. Defensively I thought we were sound and Vermaelen shepherded Rooney superbly.
To rub salt into the wounds Wenger was sent to the stands among the Utd scum and I would think had to have a good shower afterwards.

ReplyDeleteHomosexuals can't watch football. It hurts their eyes. They can't whistle either apparently. I will try to come up with other things they can't do. Keep checking back.
ReplyDeleteAs mentioned on twitter, just moments ago, any gay friends I have ( and I have many, THEY at least are not afraid to admit it) have great difficulty with SPELLING, by the way, Convinced is spelt with a 'V' not an 'F' xx
ReplyDeleteALSO WILL, A LOT OF MY GAY MALE FRIENDS END UP WITH TWISTED TESTICLES,NOT SURE HOW THAT HAPPENS MUST BE LIKE A MASON'S SECRET HANDSHAKE, OBVIOUSLY THOUGH I DON'T NEED TO EXPLAIN THAT TO YOU!!
ReplyDeleteThe more twisted my testicle is the better. For I am a man and I am infalible to pain unlike homosexuals who dont enjoy...p...ain. Yeah. Big girls blouses they are.
ReplyDeleteReally? Also strange because most of my friends have nipple rings and alberts and they seem to enjoy them very much. Not a lot of big girl's blouses unless they are worn by the big girls, and yes some of those girls are huge! Also have silver canes as part of their outfit, at least the doorlady did. :D
ReplyDeleteI think you are recounting some previously suppressed memories. Thats good. You will feel much better. I was a child soldier!
ReplyDeleteThe memories based on accounts from your autobiography published under your pseudonym Walter Mitty not so very different from Will March eh? W M ? I think you may be suffering from the River in Egypt Syndrome = denial!!
