Ironic remarks given that this very thread is nothing more than a wind-up.
Brad Friedl, the yank, holds the record for the most consecutive starts in the EPL. Every year, more and more Americans are finding their way into the EPL. This despite the fact that our youth development here is horrible (too many English and American co
So what, if he'd been playing for a top club he wouldn't have broken any records, it's easy being a big fish in a little pond. "Every year, more and more Americans are finding their way into the EPL" Yeah, they're everywhere, setting the place alight!
Actually, you get that record by being a committed, talented professional. Perhaps he hasn't taken to the culture of booze like so many of your players and fans. That probably helps too.
"So what, if he'd been playing for a top club he wouldn't have broken any records, it's easy being a big fish in a little pond." Aston Villa, Blackburn and Liverpool aren't top clubs? Can you name a better English GK? Don't think so.
Great post and very thought provoking. The Alonso/Gerrard/Masch midfield issue is one I am sure many managers would love to have, truth be told. For mine it is pretty simple. When we play Chelsea, Arsenal and Man U I think we NEED the two holding midfielde
A better English keeper? Than Brad 'Fumble' Friedl? Hahahahahahaha!
No they are not. The manager refuses to make the best go of it because of his principles, and the players ahev been found wanting for effort more than a few times this season. That's the point. And the 40,000 waiting queue you like to bandy about (which
What a stupid and so typical of the fans that started of as Arsene Knows Best's and are now We Are Real Fans. What you guys have been defending for the last couple of years has fallen away in front of your eyes while you have attacked those who saw it com
I'll prefer to play Simpson than Bentner. Who else agrees?
Yes. Just one. Robinson? James? Carson? Nope, none of them. Maybe someone from the Championship? I'm sure you wish his nickname was fumble when he played against Utd a few weeks ago.
"Nope, none of them." Do you have PROOF of this? Nope, thought not. Fumble Friedl ..... hahahahaha!
Why are so many content to argue about who is a good fan and who is a bad fan? These measures are so obviously subjective. Is someone who invests billions in his passion a better fan than someone who has not, but followed the same team for a life time?
Real fans can't give up their tickets easily... the only thing that stops them is a change in their personal circumstances, or if the prices become too expensive for them. Regardless of the results, and regardless of whether or not they are happy with the
Alonso is a very good footballer granted but I just don't see him moving from Liverpool to Arsenal at the moment. Barry is ok - a big fish in a smaller pond at Villa but I think bringing him in would be a mistake too. For one at 18 million he is way overpr
I agree completely 100% Mar... What some people don't understand is that there is a difference between supporting the CLUB, and supporting the Team. For true fans, supporting the club is something that can never be changed. Supporting individual players

Relax Swerve... we'll miss out on CL football next year, and yes, Cesc will go to Real or Barca. That's okay though... we'll have the 18 year old Ramsey to fill his spot. I'm sure that Arsene will be able to get our CL spot back once our stunning set of y
I think it's more relevant than ever boys, sorry. We have this new breed of fan that reflects the problems at the heart of the club. They are new and have no idea what really supporting the club means. This is why they talk so loosely about who is and i

No he's shite. He's a more than competent Right Back and we should keep him for that because Hoyte is never going to cut it. But he is not of the quality we need in midfield acroos the whole line. He is also a cheat and feigns injury worse than anyone I

four years is not so long, with all Wenger has done for this club, he and the players he puts out deserve a bit of patience. He cannot or will not compete financially with clubs of seemingly unlimited wealth or clubs that think nothing of spending £60m in
Ahhh, did he cry? Really? Poor lad, I suppose 30-40 000 a week will make him feel a wee bit better.
If you are a professional performer - sports or otherwise - and you live a lifestyle way beyond anything those watching could hope for, you expect the occasional boo's. If you go out of your way to ignore the rules of the sport you play or good sportsmans
I understand what you say Swerve and I see those that start questioning who are real fans, in my observation, tend to come out of the AKB crowd or other new fans. I just think this is because they ran out of real proof the AKB. But IMO the debate about w
Another QUALITY post by Swerve I feel sorry for thr REAL fans like him putting up with foreigners talkin sh!t in here 24/7 Top man Swerve keep it up
While some idiots are still focusing on negative vibes and call themselves Arsenal fans, FC Porto's experienced coach Jesualdo Ferreira was full of praise for AFC and strongly believe that the Arsenal team have what it takes to win this year's CL. Coach J
Well Ok, I see where you are coming from mate. I just personally feel the only way we get Arsenal back on track is with this backlash. I said time and time again it would happen. Wenger's stubborness will be matched now pound for pound by the anger of t
At times people complained about emirates being too quiet now the fans shouldn't boo!!!??? Maybe they should just write a letter to the club instead of booing.
