Arsenal POST Match Thread

[Chris]

Was I the only LFC fan in the world that didn't want us to equalise?! Obviously I would've loved a win but I would've preferred we lost than drawn considering the Manc****...

You honestly wanted us to fail after that performance and spirit from some of the kids?

Arsenal are absolutely zero threat to Man Utd anyway so I cant understand anyone not wanting us to get a result there.

Aresnal lost their bottle since Birmingham. Arsene has not been able to transfer, no, shoulder, any responsability what so ever. Which is why their team is broken. No one has responsability in that team. Fabregas is only captain to stop him from being in the Barca reserve team.

But, everyone and their dog know's that now. So you would guess that someone there would want to do something about it...

can we just worry about lfc? man u are gonna do what man u are gonna do. we can't have a whole lot to complain about because it's not like we've done a whole lot to stop them reaching our total. the only way to turn the situation around is to win titles ourselves. **** what man u do and what they don't do. our future is brighter than theirs anyway.

Being a bit harsh on Shelvey here, though he hasn't shown too much since he's been here he is still young. I think people maybe expecting too much from the youngsters now that Kelly, Spearing, Flanagan and Robinson have come in and impressed. Some take longer to adapt than others and I'm sure Shelvey just needs some guidance. He hasn't been here long.

In fairness to Shelvey he hasn't had a real opportunity in his favoured position. Also his injury came at a bad time for him. When he was fit at the start of Kenny's reign he was ahead of Jay Spearing in the pecking order for a midfield spot, since his injury a number of midfielders have been out and Spearing has got his chance and taken it. I think there's a good chance that if Shelvey hadn't been injured he may have got the nod ahead of Spearing.

I find Shelvey an interesting one as I don't really know what type of player he is or where he fits into the team, presumably he will get more minutes from the bench in the remainder of the season, but if we sign midfielders in the summer he is pushed further down the pecking order, I think he may need to be loaned out for experience next season. Having said that he has more experience in competitive football than most of our youngsters due to his time at Charlton, but he really need Premiership experience.

How late was Bruce's goal against Wednesday, was RVP's later than that?

[Shaggy]

I think Bruce's sickening winner was the 98th minute. And if I remember rightly it was 8 inexplicably added minutes, unlike Sunday.

Every time Bruce's goal against S.Weds is mentioned...this **** automatically pops into my head:

I’d love to know what United’s accumulative total over the years is compared to other teams.
