Liverpool could have shipped double figures playing with 10, last night.
Spawny, bindipping ****s.
Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (? - he'd score well on a Scrabble board) was magnificent, last night.Quote:

I thought he was still at Napoli - gutted he moved and we didn't go for him.Quote:

Poor lad has developed a reputation for having a 'discipline problem' from an outrageous red card, a sloppy challenge at West Ham and then this.
Didn't he also get booked from the bench before even making his debut? :hehe::hehe: Welcome to Arsenal.....
He was fouled by Kudos as well - so the second red was harsh. He won't be a full back in the long term but will be a hell of a playerQuote:

The Romford Pele gave away a pen on his debut vs Scousers aged 19 and he did all right.Quote:

A soft penalty at Anfield? Never...!Quote:

I still think that the midfield of Overmars, Petit, Vieira, Parlour was as good as it got - or at least as complete, if you know what I mean.Quote:

ah! But the formers had Anelka.Quote:

Overmars AND Anelka, that was some pace for the opposition to contain...
I only they had the greatest passer of all time to provide the chances, ehQuote:
