You, as an Arsenal fan, are no longer permitted to complain about diving.

Especially since your player got sent off for diving

Arsenal didn't see the best of our attack. I'm confident will go to Emirates and get a goal.

Yeah, well we didn't have an attack

im not overjoyed or anything...just happy the 19yr old i bigged up before the game got 20 minutes and set up a goal

now if benitez had eyes he'd stick gerrard back in centre mid and play pacheco/aquilani behind ngog at city...he'd also drop riera and play babel as credit to him the lad appears to actually be trying now


plus didnt unizrea smack celtic Rangers 4-1 or summat?

Nice try. Difference was he had been fouled before that and was on the half-way line.

Was a joke to send him off and still is now.

its tough for the lad tbf...for some reason before he'd even kicked a ball he was listed in top 10 worst signings in some shit internet poll(1.5m for a 19yr old)...he's standing in for a truly world class player up top by himself in a team under performing....and yet


the boy has the raw ingredients...strength,pace,trickery pretty clinical in one on ones...he just needs to bulk up a lil more and gain experience/composure...this season will be great for him in terms of experience the rest will come naturally...the lads a willing learner as well(as opposed to say babel)

i dont think he'll become a world beater by any means but i think he'll be worth around 10-15mill in 2-3 seasons time and personally im glad we went for him over owen as owen isnt suited to one up top whereas ngog can grow into the role

but pacecho is the one to watch...we actually have a lot of young talent coming through...if this season was going better i feel we'd have seen more of a few of them

cracking goal from Zamora last night.

play Gerrard as CM behind ? lol Gerrard is Liverpool biggest threat, the player most likely to create/score

haha, LMAO. N'Gog has no acceleration/burst of speed, what nigga you watching, are you confusing him with Babel? they got similar hairstyles. Speed is not part of your game which you can change rapidly either, you either have it or you don't, it's not a mental attribute which you can improve. With Strength, N'go's ok now, he's gangly but has some height. If he does bulk up it will only reduce his speed eg Insua

Plus N'Gog the touch of a rapist, he makes Kuyt look like he's got good technique. The ball bounces off him like when you kick a ball against a wall.

Clinical? lol how many chances did he miss yesterday before he scored a tap in my granny wouldn't have missed ?

The one thing N'Gog is good at is teamwork, he links up play with his teammates, and even that's cos he ain't the the speed/skill to take on most defenders himself. the boy works hard but that's cos like like Kuyt he has to work hard to make for his lack of outstanding technical/physical attributes.

Right outside David Gills house 



We were shocking against Milan, the tie could have been over in the first half. Looked like we were trying to gift them goals, we will have to be better against everton tmw.
