Arsenal All-Time Draft Discussion #3

liam brady>cesc

i hope that isnt posting half the story.

 

THAT.WAS.AWESOME.

I never really read through a bunch of pages to "hear" BS "gossip". Wow.

Good stuphph guys *gives thumbs up* *heads back to OT*

 

Is the squirrel elgiable to picked in the 12th round?

 

Yeah, but since he lined up on one side of the field before switching sides, and then abandoned the match, really, where should he play? Perhaps he was just a Villareal cherry-picking squirrel!

All I know is this was once an enjoyable thing to watch/read but it has instead turned into a spectacle, not unlike Christmas. Seems a few people have forgotten that the point of this was to enjoy it and learn a little bit more about Arsenal, not have a pissing contest.

Btw, my imaginary team is better than all of yours!

 

After only 1 appearance and no goals? Most of the time he just ran around the outside of the field warming up. You'd have to be some kind of lying, cheating, name-calling, nazified nutcase to make a pick like that.

 

Point taken.

Wow, now -that- was impressive. I can see you've done your reading.

 

Ive taken my time to read through this stuff.

a) Mercer can be called a defender. Anyone want to argue that point, I'll argue it no problem - you'll lose.
b) The way I read a certain post - I read it in a certain way which is how I believe Jesse took it. Anyone can play any team as long as they can justify it. I don't believe any of us would be attacking Arsene if he put a midfielder in defence..............(Eboue, Lauren, Flamini, Gilberto, Larson). Cygan (if anyone bothered to look at the stats) is actually quite a high performing player, so lets not knock him too much.
c) Everyone (Cannon and Deeplenon included) calm the hell down. Edited posts make this stuff difficult to get a grip with.

 

stats lie if thats the case. i love ya rick, but he's pants mate.

 

not thats its saying much but there has most probably been worse defenders for arsenal. there is 1 that can arguably be said was worse and has more apps then cygan.

 

nelson vivas?

 

The legendary Ian Ure of course.

 

i stand corrected. 2.

 

Indeed stats lie. I shot exactly 50% from the field in three years of pee-wee basketball between 2nd and 4th grade. For that age group, I might even be the all-time fg% leader.

And oh yeah, I shot one for two lifetime.

 

Well it looks like Arsenalgirl/Cannon is now just Arsenalgirl......great lost my partner in all the discussions crap......not happy about this......

 

Checked PMs-check yours as well! Thanks for being a great draft partner!

 

Don Rickleone and his cat, Barry.

 

a clue maybe or just the chink in the faux-armour

 

I agree with this.

Once your a mod your always a mod, I assume since Coach as more important obligations now than BS and is unavailable to moderate, but is still listed. Cannon is too heavy handed to moderate this. If you want to be an opinioned shite (like Cannon, phisy, MT, antifan or myself) thats super and makes this place interesting, but makes for a horrendous moderater. Nobody wants to see their stuff edited for any reason. If your a moderator and see fit to do it, you better have a better reason than some "technicality"

Its what we call a "judicial temperment"........ The guy lost his head of the rules of "fake, fictional, not real" draft.......you have got to be kidding me

Steph, you'll do great

 

For the record, the cat's name is "Ralph".

 

Do not assume that I've ignored or neglected my duties here.
Things got heated but I chose not to edit or delete posts. I have my reasons for this. Sometimes being a good mod means you choose to do nothing.

 

phishy an opinioned shite???? never...never....antiphan? um....

 

i stayed out of the rules discussion for the most part.

I do have to say that picking an "Arsenal All-time XI" withouth a goalkeepers is quite dumb. And Jesse, the 12th pick wasn't decided on until late in the draft. jesse/romeo, when the draft started were you planning on picking a keeper by the 11th pick?

and Billy, in regards to the whole position thing, you questioned why I put Bastin up front a few times!!

I should've put more into the rules at the beginning and given more leeway towards players from yesteryear playing in formations that don't really exist in the modern game.

 

Nah, he played at Centre Back for us against Blackburn last season!! (I believe another time as well).
