FC Twente v Arsenal, Champions League 3rd Qualifying Round, First Leg, Pre/Dur/Post Match [R]

RVP got taken out but seems ok. Damn Sagna follows up a long shot that rebouded from their keeper and shoots just wide.

 

Gael Force with a long range shot...
Sagna should've done better with the rebound

 

damn close again....come on Sagna and Clichy......is RVP up yet?

 

Clichy Cannon!

 

Hopefully the team saw what happens when you mix things up a bit. That shot by clichy created one of the most dangerous moments we had all game.

 

Just an absolute joke what I've watched..

Things we have learned so far

1. Ramsey is not ready yet and if we plan on playing him a lot this season we are screwed (please sign a DM soon)
2. Denilson is not Cesc
3. We are still shit at set kicks
4. Eboue is still worthless
5. RVP is still prone to injury and if he does stay healthy he will make a stupid tackle at some point in the season

 

Not sure what tactics Wenger is trying to have this squad play.The aren't do the passing game, counters, long ball, running wide, etc....just a muddle so far.

 

really struggling to keep possession. Is Adebayor actually on the pitch?

 

6. Clichy is still a baller...IMO our only bright spot so far along with Almunia although that striker made him look good

 

Come on Arsenal! Come on!

 

The midfield has been total shit, should be fun seeing this against WBA this Saturday.

 

Clichy gets fouled again. The ref seems happy to let them crunch our players for just fk. That could hurt with our long injury list already.

Adebayor sick or just uninterested?

 

Wenger needs to adjust our play to the clear problems with our midfield. This is not going to work today or on the weekend.

 

Is Theo even on the pitch?

 

This is horrible....now AW is just going to come back and say 'we have 5 first team injuries'.

 

It's the "Don't Lose or Get Injured" tactic, a new one for us to be sure

 

Hey! We saw Ade!

Only seems to pop up for an offside.

 

I am not looking forward to seeing a replay of this Saturday.

 

Hell...old headless chicken Flamini had better positioning than Denilson/Ramsey.

Adebayor called offside again...who knows if this one is real.

 

Well we know that Ade is on the pitch because he keeps accumulating offsides calls......

 

We really need an away goal, if we leave scoreless we are setting ourselves up for a possibly scary situation at the Emirates.

 

I fn can't stand Eboue and his antics

 

Eboue needs to STFU.

 

Ade is called offsides too f@#$in much ...

What does he not get it?

And god do i hate Eboue.

I'm trying to think of something positive to say.

It's sunny outside. That's nice.

 

Denilson with a nice interception. Ball to Eboue on the left who gets fouled.
Theo with a half-assed cross.

The half is about to end.
