29th-30th August Matchday Thread

Good run from Evra, and a very dangerous freekick for Man Utd.

Evra is the best player on the pitch by far

Ronaldo would have scored that

Giggs has lost a few steps

Who's the best AM in the premiership? Today we get to find out - Giggs vs Diaby!

Now that is a soft yellow.

*referring to Evra's one.

Man U fail to exploit another good situation...

We've been so careless at times and given the ball away in dangerous areas. Man Utd haven't done enough to capitalise on the chances though.

What a goal from Arshavin!!!

Arshavin is immense

Deserved goal

Lucky punt from Arshavin, 1-0

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARSHAVIN!!!!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

Arshavin is so good. I can't believe nobody bought him last Summer after the Euros

Finally he does it somewhere that isnt anfield!

OH FFS! DIVINE JUSTICE! I FORGOT THE REFS DON'T CALL PENALTIES AT OLD TRAFFORD AGAINST THE MANCS.

ARSHAVIN DUSTED HIMSELF OFF AND JUST RIFLES IT IN.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

Has Arshavin done anything else good so far this season or is he going to live off one good shot for another month?

it could be a month before we see the GAYS again, next 2 games are Spurs (a) and Man City (h)

Well his goal against Celtic wasn't bad.

You're right though. He's pretty shit against teams that bend over.

Song is going to get himself sent off.

Foster should have fucking saved it he's to small lets buy that damn German. Giggs has got in good positions but so wasteful we need a fast attacking midfielder with a left foot hmmm

Hype: When as soon as a player scores a good goal the commentators start talking about player of the season awards.

Blackburn manager Sam Allardyce: "We played the way we did because of the players we had available - and we played it very well. All you punters and supporters out there, leave it to me. I'm the expert, not you."

who is going to score the goals?

Arshavin has been average this season and it just proves that Foster isn't up to it.

For 40 minutes it was 2 bald men fighting over a comb.

Arsenal like to play fast flowing football all the time


Chelsea, Liverpool, Man City & Spurs = THE BIG 4



Diaby and Giggs

That's why you thought N'Zogbia was a left back, Milner was a left winger, Martins was a right winger, Smith was a good replacment for Dyer, and a good tactic was to play the long ball to Michael Owen. Fuck off!

Nobody, Blackburn has a great chance to go down. But Sam has a point, getting a point against West Ham isn't bad.

Ridiculous refereeing. Definite penalty from Fletcher. Barely got the ball but completely took the player out whilst the ball was still in playing distance. Similar to what he did in the CL semi but worse. Luckily Arshavin scored.

Then V'Persie gets a yellow for doing the same.

He should have said "all you journalists out there". Then he would gotten a great big thumbs up.

Why is there no talk of the fletcher challenge on Arshavin?

Should have been a pen.

It's a game like this we need Walcott.
