  • Shenanigans at Villa Park.

    Schade actually means "too bad", in German. Literally

    "But a lot have found it difficult wearing the number 9 shirt for The Arsenal."

    I understand villa had a goal ruled out for the ball being out of play, despite the absence of conclusive proof..... sounds familiar....

      That's right.

      Took a ridiculously long time to make their minds up. Everyone clearly wanted a breather, a cup of tea.

        Very strange decision in the Unitd game.

        Var overruled a penalty but then awarded a free kick for earlier in the move- from which united scored.

          There was also a gallant second-half fight-back up the road, so another decent weekend.

          Six points ought to be just comfortable enough to make us uncomfortable.

          Or vice versa

            Without checking, I think the most pts we've been ahead has been 7. Jan has been a woeful month, 2 draws and a defeat. {Despite also winning both CL games and a CL semi.} But 7 pts dropped.

            Yet we're still six ahead. And we have 3 strikers all scoring. Which takes the pressure off all of them. Those three aren't fighting each other as rivals to be the main man. As Jeez says, they all seem happy to be sharing the load as opposed to having all the fans and media all just looking at them.

            Vik - 3 goals and an assist in the last 4 games since Jeez and Kai came to take some of the pressure off him.

            Gabby M - a goal and 2 great assists, one from the right, in that time.

            Hadn't Zubi only scored 10 goals in his entire career before he signed for us? Has five this season already.

            Ganpati willing I haven't jinxed it, but given a week ago, the media were saying the Arsenal fans had blown it with their nervousness and Herbie was saying Viktor Gronkey's hooves make Chamak look like Titi we've just one 4-0 and are 6 pts clear. again.

              We've been great. If you cannot get all the players you want, just get more out of the players you have.

              Brilliant. wd Mikel.
