I hate Wilshire the most. Little punk, talks a lot of shit, and so overrated. HOW THE F are we not taking off a defender and brining in an attacking player with Assenal down to 10 men...really!
Obvious statement but we have to get Soldado going somehow. AVBs tactics just ruined his goal-scoring form, IMO. Not sure even a Redknapp hug would snap him out of it.
Would being called a top, top player in the press help instead? A lack of quality as individuals today, highlighted by both goals being the result of individual mistakes.
Pathetic performance by the team. Rose played like shit, well honestly, everyone really played like shit today. If you really want it, why not take off a defender for attacking players? It's not like there's goal difference that needs to be worried about. I'm pissed at the effort, not the result of this game. I am also pointing my finger at Sherwood today. Bad substitution, didn't see any urgency from him, or even urging the team to go forward. We need to buy a striker and LB NOW!
I swear if Arse end up **shudders** winning this thing, there will not be enough bourbon in the world to console me. Meh. Mickey Mouse cup
Don't forget to spare some hate for Sxzznzy. Easy to forget since he didn't play today, but he's a right prck himself.
-why are we walking in the final 3rd. can we really be that tired from Wed. -why not Kane for Soldado? -why does Walcott have to be such an arsehole. he needs to stay home and not travel to Brazil (know what i mean) -Capoue should have played instead of Bentaleb. -Rose is a "one hit" wonder. We need a new left back. Stupid fool. -Soldado needs to sit for a while and be a sub. -all in all, very naive from TS oh well, at least we wont have to expel any for energy on this cup, lets focus on finishing 4th.
I've said it once, twice, thrice and I'm gonna say it again. Sherwood is tactically a moron. and the same old Adebayor was back, out of position and pure lazy. Whoopdy doo he had a few great games but history shows what happens to him over time and fool me once, fool me twice. he has to go Sherwood should have kept Soldado on if he wanted Eriksen up top, Soldado at least keeps his position and has some very smart passes and flicks that Eriksen could have used.
Starting Bentaleb I knew was a problem from the beginning. Capoue was the reason we beat United, I can't imagine he couldn't have at least played half a match. Sherwood is tactically naive and it shows every single game. Soldado didn't play badly, his finishing just needs to get better. He was FAR better than that worthless git Adebayor. Rose didn't play very well but you can't blame him that much, he got no help defending from Eriksen. You can blame him for the 2nd goal 100% though, KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID!
One more thing, yet again to Tim Sherwood. WE WERE BEING OVERRUN IN THE MIDFIELD! Ade and Soldado weren't terrific so why the f* did we not put another midfielder in? I swear his love for 4-4-2 is blindingly stupid! Mark my words, we play a 3 man central midfield and I can guarantee those Arsenal goals don't happen since you have a midfielder protecting the back 4 who desperately need Vertonghen fit. and i hope the lescott rumors are true
I wouldn’t run off the rails too much over this result. Arsenal away is always a big ask, 3 days after United away while Arsenal had an easy home fixture it wasn’t likely. Hate them as I do Arsenal are top of the league for a reason.
This. Wasn't this our fourth or fifth match in 12 days or something like that, and basically the same lineup game after game. Hell, I think we have a starting XI in the physio's room. Bummed, yes, but I'll reserve judgment on TS until the squad is a bit healthier.
Our walking wounded, according to physioroom.com: http://www.physioroom.com/news/english_premier_league/epl_injury_table.php Sandro isn't even listed.
Yawn... Very boring and pitiful effort from this squad. Lifeless, no energy, you'd never know this was an FA Cup game! Midfield was non-existent. Soldado shooting like he's never kicked a ball on target ever. And it shouldn't matter we just had Man Utd.... That's what they get paid the big money for, it's ridiculous.
They listed him by his last name Ranieri. I'm distressed that so many players have no return date. Getting any of Lamela, Siggy or Defoe back for today would be good.
not running off the rails but i think sherwood showed a lot of tactical naivety by playing 2 cms against an arsenal midfield 3 that would give the best teams in the world a problem. Adebayor did not keep his position and was deeper than Dembele at parts of the match. He looked like he gave up on the game after 20min of it not going his way. He is a petulant child and acts like it when things dont always go his way.
I'm honestly not winding y'all up, but you DO realize that your scummy away fans were chunking coins at him and the stewards and that is what PRECEEDED his gesture? The disgusting pricks were your supporters, disgraceful.
yeah. I like Walcott. and I like Sczesczny (or however the hell you spell it). I like that they don't like spurs. they shouldn't. and I shouldn't like them. so I don't. but I also do.
Oh, f--k off SuperIdiot. Whether or not it was PRECEEDED (thanks for the all CAPS so we noticed the emphasis), you'd think he possessed an iota of professionalism and abstained from such taunting. But no, he, Wilshere and that Frankenstein you call a GK have no class whatsoever. By the way, did Sxczvny have coins, bread and a lighter thrown at him? Be gone, gooner.
Personally don't have any issue with Walcott's gesture. It wasn't setting a bad example like Wilshere was against Man city. Was it the smartest thing to do? No, but footballers don't always do the smartest things.
