ooooh, well done Arsene

[Sir C]

Some good Arsenal pelanties among those

I was 100% convinced Cole was going to miss.

[Burney]

Indeed - remember Adams and Bould never gave away free kicks either

And let's never speak of what invariably happened any time a forward capable of anything more than glacial pace got behind Bouldy.

I was 100% convinced Cole was going to miss.

I completely bottled that shootout and went out for a walk. I found out we'd won when my phone went mental.

[Sir C]

Tel's posing, sulking and bullying of JAR; Dennis's frustrating inconsistency; Lehmann's insanity and tendency to put pressure on his own defence by reacting to every provocation; Kolo Toure not *actually* being terribly good at defending sometimes; Getting bullied out of crucial games by United, Leeds, Bolton, etc.

Now you're tearing the árse out of it b.

[IUFG]

I'm sure Bergkamp could do that if he wanted to

I remember being at Hillsborough and Dennis hit a pass along the ground that curled around Des Walker straight into the path of a sprinting Ian Wright who went around Pressman (?). And missed.

You could see the line in the grass the ball had made. Simply perfect

Finished 0-0

You yourself have said that for a man of his incredible talents, he had a tendency to go missing.

Of that side, the players I can't find anything negative to say about are Pires, Gilberto and - much as I hate to admit it - Cole.

Whatever else he was or wasn't, he was a superb left back.

Oh I think Pires had quite the capacity for 'having a quiet game', especially if he was taking a good kicking.

Indeed, one Jose Antonio Reyes kept him out of the side for a while...

It seems weird looking back that Sheffield Wednesday were once a serious team.

Usually a stretcher was called for (in the early days, anyway)

Fair point. I suppose I'm just overlooking it because of my affection for him as a player.
