[Guest Reyes Henry]

Henry was great yesterday and so was Reyes. Fabregas returned but still i didn't think he performed well. Ljunberg is in a great form but it's was bergkamp yesterday that gave me goosebumps. his passes were off target, were intercepted, he was tackled and what not

The Emirates Stadium? Yeah, lets stay at Highbury...

Heh, terrible name. Wasnt it just gonna be called Ashburton Grove? Or maybe Highbury II, this time its for money.

[Cortez]

Emirates name sucks, I also thought it was going to be called Ashburton Grove. Who or what is Emirates.

The name sucks, but the money we get from the deal will more than make up for the crappyness of the name don't ya think?

[FLiam]

£100m makes up for the name

Plus, I don't see us Gooners calling it that, it will probably be called "The Grove" or "Ashburton Grove". That is what I will call it.

[Cortez]

I have to say having a crap name is a small price to pay when we get £100 million in return. I wonder if Vieria and Lauren have patched things up.

[edcq]

i thought they said that it was nothing more than a heated discussion or something.

[Summers]

Well, would you openly admit that you had a fight with a team mate, in which the police had to apparantly get involved?

True or not, they did the professional thing, and denied it all.

[FLiam]

Well imo on all that is that Wenger, Vieira and Lauren said things like that happen all the time, the reason police were their is becasue they were guarding the team bus at the time like they always do, when they heard a bit of a fight of course they would go in and calm everyone down.

It happens in football, I am glad it happened, shows they care about the team and shows how much they want Euro glory.

[fineintent]

Yeah but Gooner the point is even if something really serious happened, neither party are going to come out and tell the media that. Wenger and Arsenal did a good job of silencing a possible huge story.

[Summers]

fireintent has it spot on.

Although, Gooner has a good point. the Arsenal team said these things happen all the time - that may be used as a good cover up, a way to say 'it isn't a big deal'.

To be honest, I'm surprised Wenger didn't say "I didn't see it."

[Guest freefly]

I wouldn't be surprised if Leicester sneaked a win personally.

:blink:

What?!

That was posted on May 11th.

[Cortez]

lol, maybe he is stuck in a time warp.

Has anyone seen much of the new goalkeeper we signed in the summer, can't remeber his name. Since we have brought him in what will happen to Taylor and Stack.

[TMM]

Manuel Almunia. Haven't seen anything of him yet, but I really don't know why Wenger signed him in the first place. Both Taylor and Stack are way more than capable goalkeepers. Now one's been shipped out on loan and the other has just vanished it seems.

[FLiam]

Well, apprently Taylor has dramitcally gone downhill since his injury, he isn't agile anymore or very achletic.

Which is a shame because he should have been the replacement for Seaman, he did nothing wrong in goal. Played against Juventus and nearly kept a clean sheet but for a lucky tap in and he kept us in the FA Cup against Chelsea in that game at Stamford Bridge.

[Guest _sTe_]

I love the coincidence that No. 50 just happens to be against Man Utd

[Cortez]

What a game that will be, any one know if it's at Highbury, or Old Trafford.

To be honest I'll be happy with a draw against united, but if we skin them alive I won't be complaining either.
