Arsenal 2-1 PSG + Fascinating Anelka quotes

0 guns July 29th, 2007

After a goal and an assist yesterday in a promising performance, it was all going swimmingly for the young Danish striker. When a driving run from Alex Hleb brought about a penalty, Bendtner wrestled the ball from the more experienced Emmanuel Eboue, before side-footing a lazy effort against the goalkeeper. Maybe Bendtner should’ve learnt his lesson from last season, when Birmingham fans were incensed when he refused to celebrate with the team after not being allowed to take a penalty. In future, he should steer well clear. Penalties + Bendtner = trouble.

That aside, he showed good strength and aerial ability to give the PSG backline plenty of trouble. If he improves his movement and general effort levels, he could be a handy player.

Other notable points from the match (a report of which can be found here) were that Gael Clichy was outstanding, Emmanuel Eboue looked dangerous at right-midfield and Hleb was played, quite unbelievably, in his actual position behind the striker and really did rather well.

Nonetheless, our incredible lack of wingers was on display for all to see. In the course of the game, we field four wide players: two of which were central midfielders, and the other two full-backs. Sort it out, Arsene.

Today we face Inter, and the likes of Jens Lehmann, William Gallas, Kolo Toure, Bacary Sagna, Cesc Fabregas, Hleb and Robin Van Persie are all set to start. Sadly, it seems that Patrick Vieira will be unavailable with a knee injury.

And now the main event. The reason you clicked this link. In yesterday’s match programme, Arsene suggested he’s looking to sign one or two new players (much to my relief). In the post-game press conference, this sparked a long line of questioning about one man: Nicolas Anelka.

Press: The players you’re looking to sign - are they from England?

AW: I can’t tell you.

Press: Did you want to bring Anelka in? Did the board say no?

AW: No.

Press: …Which part of that are you saying “No” to?

AW: He asked me the question, “Did the board say no?” And I said, “no”.

Press: So did you want to bring Anelka in?

AW: I can bring in who I want, and the board doesn’t interfere in that, unless it’s a financial situation and we cannot afford them.

Press: Did you want to bring Anelka in?

AW: I just gave you the answer, no?

Press: You told us you can bring in who you want, but did you want to bring Anelka in? Did Anelka want to come?

AW: Of course. I felt that we have the strikers we need, and that I wanted a striker like Eduardo who can play on the flanks, and can play with Anelka, or with Adebayor, or with Van Persie, and that’s why we have gone for Eduardo, and it was more a question of choice - nothing to do with the quality of Anelka. I rate him very very highly. It was just we had Adebayor, Bendtner, Van Persie playing in the same position.

Press: You have said you’d like up to two more players. Can you indentify the positions? Will you definitely not sign a striker?

AW: I cannot tell you at the moment. Because you are all too clever.

Press: So the possibility of going for Anelka is still there?

AW: …I cannot say that at all at the moment.

Press: So it could still happen Arsene? Anelka could still end up at Arsenal?

AW: Well there are plenty of strikers in the world that you could buy.

Press: So is the thought process behind one or two of your targets related linked with the possiblity of Eduardo not coming?

AW: No.

Press: Have you ruled out an offer for Anelka?

AW: Why are you so obsessed with Anelka?

Press: I’m asking as a journalist: what’s the situation?

AW: At the moment, I have not made any offer for Anelka.

“At the moment”. If you have ArsenalTVOnline (it’s dirt cheap, you should) go and watch the press conference. Arsene is definitely up to something. It could be one of several things:

1) He is just enjoying toying with the press

2) He is happy to use Anelka as a smokescreen whilst he gets on with something else

3) There is some form of genuine interest there

The way the journalist pursued the story suggested he might have heard something relating to option number 3). The incredible slip of the tongue about Eduardo playing with Anelka, on top of the suggestion that Eduardo could play wide should be enough to keep you salivating all day.

Just don’t come crying to me when we sign 16 year old Belgian hotshot Helmut Crapschaft instead.

I would welcome Anelka at the club,about Eduardo I hope he gets his work permit(Anderson got it so should Eduardo as he played more games for his national side)….I`m very happy that Wenger said he is looking to get new players as it`s ovious we need a winger

hahaha fucking awesome quotes.
10. Non Edible Nacho | July 29th, 2007 at 9:25 am

And the hacks can be a pain in the ass indeed, eh? And not for good reasons. Arsène was asked more times about Anelka than Blair about weapons of mass destruction, by a mile.
11. willy girlass | July 29th, 2007 at 9:29 am

i want experience at the club. i didnt clap when Bendtner scored. arsene should make me captain, sign pele, maradona, zidane, van basten or we are doomed and i am off to millan

14. RadioRoy | July 29th, 2007 at 9:37 am

I just saw the press conference, and it’s obviously a slip of the tongue. AW’s smile just after he said “can play with Anelka” seems to me like a smile that he knows he said something he shouldn’t, but hopes noone noticed.
15. Simmzy | July 29th, 2007 at 9:40 am

Bendtner sure has the ego to be a top striker.
16. gstew | July 29th, 2007 at 9:49 am

I have heard great things about this Crapschaft. I can’t find any other links between him and Arsenal, though. Do you really think that we will sign him?? Or is he just another Palacio?

:o)
17. NicktheGooner | July 29th, 2007 at 9:51 am

That was classical Wenger. Always cryptic and always leaving bits and pieces for the press to run around.
I have a feeling that Eduardo will end up on the wings and we’ll have another striker upfront.
18. Kung-Fu | July 29th, 2007 at 9:52 am

News of the world is unbelievably hopeless. Arsene had dinner with Dein so they must be up to something. Geez they are friends for crying out loud. And oh the following expressions were heard, ‘plans’, ‘way forward’ and ‘Henry’. Big surprise.
19. Grovelad | July 29th, 2007 at 9:57 am

KungFu, worse still, ,more shit from tribalfootball, who is quoting News Of The World that is targeting LUKA MODRIC from Dinamo and quoting Mail that Roeder is coming to the club as our Sporting Director!!!

So if anyone come in here and post that we are missing out on another signing in Modric and blaming Wenger and the board i will be very pissed!
20. Grovelad | July 29th, 2007 at 9:59 am

#15, Bendtner has a air of ego that Henry shown 2 seasons ago. I watched the game, he can hold up ball, HEAD!!!, and link up play. Seems like plan B is actually working. Both goals are a direct result of balls into the box.
21. Sniff | July 29th, 2007 at 10:06 am

I would just like to point out that Helmut Crapschaft is regarded as the Belgian Leo Messi.

He will push for first team selection by January if Arsenal buy him

Seriously though, great post. I saw the outline of that interview a while ago and the lack of detail was driving me crazy all day.

hleb looked the bollocks yesterday i think with dudu up front if the hearing goes well he will score lots of goals for us .we will make so many opertunities for him to score and u no he can score goals….we sound worried about the work permit though ….the reyes ting is pissing me right off just get him back training the fucking grizzling baby and it was sunny yesterday/….is the diarra transfer bullshit or not he is a good player i think……weres that winger…..oh yeah how good is gael clichy better than batty boy cole

He should stick to trying to get opposition players sent off.
25. berry | July 29th, 2007 at 10:34 am

what a shit penalty
26. TH14 aka Fab4 | July 29th, 2007 at 10:36 am

was Clichy’s final ball good??
27. berry | July 29th, 2007 at 10:37 am

yeah it was for pre season
28. Flu0 | July 29th, 2007 at 10:41 am

Clichy’s crossing was real bad. But his pace and running troubled the opposition defenders.
29. berry | July 29th, 2007 at 10:47 am

thats y i liked reyes he can cross well……..did randell touch the ball
30. Flu0 | July 29th, 2007 at 10:57 am

Yup, but his playing time was kinda limited. Did well though, kept possession well and didn’t give the ball away.
31. fc arsenal | July 29th, 2007 at 11:09 am

Lassana Diarra and luka modric will become a arsenal player this week, is it true
32. Flu0 | July 29th, 2007 at 11:12 am

Its seems like our style of play is changing for this season, at least judging from the match ytd. We seem to be whipping in more crosses more frequently, though the quality of them is another thing. But with all 4 of our strikers (bendtner, ade, RVP and eduardo) having decent heading ability, i think this method is gg to be wenger’s plan B when opponents pack the box. Diaby is a monster in the middle, he demands to be selected.
33. Flu0 | July 29th, 2007 at 11:13 am

31. Where did u hear that from?
34. fc arsenal | July 29th, 2007 at 11:15 am

i read it bbc gossip
35. Flu0 | July 29th, 2007 at 11:16 am

I hope its true about modric, not that keen on diarra though. Any link?
36. Ash | July 29th, 2007 at 11:16 am

I only watched the second half but Clichy has improved his final ball. Eboue looks very good in midfield, He can hurt teams with his dribbling and crossing, & unlike our wide players he can hold the ball under pressure. Hoyte looks better than Sagna going forward. Diaby was excellent too, he needs to pass it quicker sometimes but he is starting to become an excellent player

Hleb excelled too, he takes people out of the game and when he is playing behind the strikers it creates scoring chances.

I wouldnt mind Anelka but we need a half striker more than we need him. Looks a smokescreen for me but its good to see that Wenger is still in the market
37. GOONER | July 29th, 2007 at 11:17 am

We got too many central midfielders: Fabregas, Diaby, Denislon, Hleb, Rosicky, Flamini, Randall. Wenger should not buy anymore central midfielders, just because they are world class, and play them on the flanks. I hope Wenger have the cash required to buy a world class left winger. If not, sell Fabregas since he is highly regarded by Madrid. In my opinion, Rosicky, Hleb and Fabregas are world class playmakers, but Arsenal have too many playmakers. They are world class when they play at their original position.
38. Flu0 | July 29th, 2007 at 11:18 am

Yea agree with you about eboue, he did look dangerous on the wings. I think sagna needs more time to gel with the defence, have a feeling he’ll turn out into a solid buy.
39. TH14 aka Fab4 | July 29th, 2007 at 11:18 am

were will we put Diarra?
I agree that Diaby is that Monster we need against the teams that put 11 players behind the ball.
40. TH14 aka Fab4 | July 29th, 2007 at 11:21 am

37. GOONER | July 29th, 2007 at 11:17 am
I totally agree.
and if we do sell Fabregas Rosicky would be a great replacement.
41. TH14 aka Fab4 | July 29th, 2007 at 11:25 am

Chelsea 0-2 Rangers.
Surely 1 of the premierships elite should be able to beat one of the SPL’s elite?, and they had a strong team out!
42. radioactivefudge | July 29th, 2007 at 11:26 am

£8 mil for Reyes. I can’t help feeling completely shafted for that one. He is after all in the bracket of super player, do you not agree?
43. arnold | July 29th, 2007 at 11:28 am

in my opinion bendtner is way better then torres, torres might turn out to be morientes and how know he could be replace thierry henry scoring more then 20 goals a season

48. Ash | July 29th, 2007 at 11:35 am

Fabregas is 20, Rosicky is 27 and injury prone. I think Wenger wants to play 3 CMs in Europe, but surely if we have to move a player it shouldnt be Cesc even for £20m+, He is our leader now & you can tell when he is not playing.
49. arnold | July 29th, 2007 at 11:39 am

56. arnold | July 29th, 2007 at 12:29 pm

i think we need to sell are centre middle or loan them out caz we have to many i think song should find another club to play for maybe loan him out for a season then sell him for 5m - 6m

59. gooners4life | July 29th, 2007 at 12:33 pm

Quaresma or Robinho please!!!!!!!!! we need a winger with pure skill and flare to take players on and dazzle opposition whilst providing a final ball..both these players can do this for Arsenal..also these players would really help Theo learn his trade and pick up a trick or 3 (which he clearly needs)
60. Anthony B | July 29th, 2007 at 12:35 pm

58, im not sure but i reckon if the pitch gets waterlogged then the piont thing is used all over the pitch by being shoved in the ground to disperse the water, hope thats a help to you

64. naz | July 29th, 2007 at 12:38 pm

and i am sure we will sign two more players atleast to make it a 21 man squad and not a 21 children squad
65. Burt | July 29th, 2007 at 12:41 pm

If Eduardo doesn’t get that work visa we should kick up a big old fuss, Manu would not have this problem and that needs to be looked at. Nearly as blatant as the cash for honours farce. Chelsea may have all the dirty money but Manu will always have the favourable treatment. This Tevez nonsense, apparently the FA will make a new and definate ruling to aviod this happening again, but as long as Manu get their way first then all’s ok. Disgusting.

We should get the queen on the phone, it’s her country after all.
66. arnold | July 29th, 2007 at 12:45 pm

if both modric and diarra sign for arsenal for 13m that be great diarra made qearesmo cry last season champions league to me he is better then song and his tackle are second to none and modric he can play the same role that ribery played for france in the world cup 4-5-1 playing wide if those players join arsenal i’ll be glad caz to me quaresmo doesnt worth 18m when you look at both arsenal and chelsea game diarra and eboue made him look stupid with his skills
67. steelyboy | July 29th, 2007 at 12:50 pm

Bendtner looks like a bit of a wanker doesn’t he?

How do you think he will turn out? Van Persie has become amazing, but is Bendtner a bit too arrogant to take advice from Wenger?
68. WillyG | July 29th, 2007 at 12:53 pm

Reyes might be on his way to A.Madrid for 8million(report of spainish newspaper Marca) not a bad fee,I heard that Real Madrid are only willing to pay 4million them cunts,so lets pissed them off and sell him to ATLETICO
69. WillyG | July 29th, 2007 at 12:58 pm

Isn`t Diarra a free agent next season? I don`t think Diarra will sign for us now.We have too many Centre Midfielders and while Diarra is Quallity,I think we should sign him on the Bosman rule.he would be useful as he can easily play right back as well.
70. Louisa | July 29th, 2007 at 12:58 pm

I’ve just watched Arsene Wenger’s post-match press conference. That mention of “Eduardo can play with Anelka” thingy could just have been a mistake, as they/he kept talking about Anelka just before that line. It might not have been a slip of tongue.

Plus, just days ago, he said ‘no’ when asked if he’s chasing Anelka, because ‘we don’t collect strikers’:
http://www.arsenal.com/article.asp?thisNav=news&article=477737&cpid=703&title=Wenger+-+I+am+NOT+chasing+Nicolas+Anelka

But then I know that’s nothing much to go by, cos he also ‘guaranteed’ Henry would be here this term, and was ‘90% certain’ that Freddie’s staying, on the SAME DAY he said ‘no’ to the Anelka rumour:
http://www.arsenal.com/article.asp?thisNav=news&article=477761&cpid=703&title=Wenger+-+Ljungberg%27s+experience+is+an+asset

Fingers crossed.
71. Bergkamp | July 29th, 2007 at 1:02 pm

We don’t need Anelka. He brings nothing we haven’t got, except a Gallas-esque attitude.

do u think modric will be a good signing
have u ever seen him play
90. Flu0 | July 29th, 2007 at 2:15 pm

Modric would be a great signing, though im saying this based just on the youtube clips i’ve watched and i noe they’re just showing his best moments only. But he’s already an established international at the age of just 21, and he’s the heartbeat of the zagreb side. Plus he scores goals reminiscent of pires, right-footed winger playing on the left side of midfield. He’ll fit right in at arsenal and i’d be delighted if the rumors regarding him are true.
91. gooner | July 29th, 2007 at 2:16 pm

yes agianst arsenal and england he played very narrow midfielder and played a bit wide arsene was looking at him to replace ljungberg in the january transfer

Thierry Henry really is a prize-A CUNT.
He won’t stay and play alongside Cesc, Bendtner and RVP…but he don’t mind playing alongside Bojan Krkic and Giovani dos Santos, all youths, at Barcelona. I love the man but hope he FLOPS miserably at Barcelona. Although I can understand just why he quit this shower of shite team that does not care or is even serious about winning the CL or the league.
98. guzeppe | July 29th, 2007 at 4:03 pm

Tucci, how come you are looking at the mirror and say what you’re seeing about yourself and attribute it to TH. That was his wish and we respect it. Of course the team wants to win….but not the way you think fit. If you are qualified enough apply for the post of manager. Then we’ll really win…….the vauxhall conference league. In other words simply shut up. At least be constructive in your criticism.

102. 433 | July 29th, 2007 at 4:09 pm

I’ve watched France’s last few European Qualifiers and Anelka has been their best player. He has a much better touch than Djibril Cisse, but is equally full of running an power. He looks like he’s really settled into the striker role for France and I don’t think he’ll be replaced if he maintains this form.
103. Josh | July 29th, 2007 at 4:11 pm

Thats for that information on how to work a radio, but just in case I don’t live in your exact geographic area (and this being an online forum and all I don’t think its too far out of the box to assume that I don’t) is there any way to listen over the internet?
104. 433 | July 29th, 2007 at 4:13 pm

Also, in those French Euro qualifiers, Lassana Diarra looked quite good, and Chelsea would be stupid to let him go.
105. ZM10! | July 29th, 2007 at 4:15 pm

Hey its 3-0 to psg! thats gud news! All we need is a draw i guess!
106. Anthony B | July 29th, 2007 at 4:17 pm

107. gooner | July 29th, 2007 at 4:22 pm

chelsea always stupid look at crespo at the champions league and also letting gallas go to there rival if diarra and modric rumour is true i think we got the right to challange any tropthy that were in it
108. gooner | July 29th, 2007 at 4:24 pm

no it not a good news if arsenal loose 2-0 psg will win the trophy simply the goal

153. Spandiar | July 29th, 2007 at 6:13 pm

Van the Man…a really difficult angle, and when i was expecting him to make a pass, he fooled the defence and shot a wonder goal. if only he can remain fit throughout the season….
154. respect eduardo | July 29th, 2007 at 6:14 pm

RVP look sharp, and seem to be ready to be our main man this season. One important note is on Hleb who in my mind was man of the match, he best position is definitely playing the hole behind the striker. He was sharp in most of the attack, and the attack seems to be link through him. However, Fabregas look slighly fatigue and nowhere near as effective as HLeb
155. gooner | July 29th, 2007 at 6:18 pm

If we bring in Anelka, a quality winger (Quaresma) and a good Center back as backup then we can make a quadruple.

163. respect eduardo | July 29th, 2007 at 6:25 pm

RVP goal was the sort of goal that settles a tight game. I really feel happy for RVP as he will be the one we look upon to win us games with the departure of Henry. Hleb seems to play so much better in the middle of the park and those who wrongly doubt his abilities should take note

hey, I am glad to see the doom-mongers go away and good to see Arsenal playing so well. they are really a pleasure to watch: the most beautiful football in England by far. Who is this Gibbs kid? Looked great. So did Traoure.

But, don’t go over-board. it was just a pre-season friendly…it showed us the quality is there, but doesn’t really ‘prove’ anything. I think that cautious optimism is probably more appropriate than triumphalism at having scaled this tiny hill. Bigger mountains to climb coming up!

Of course vlcgooner. But a cup is a cup is a cup. And its a good feeling to see AFC get their hands on a piece of silver. But what I enjoyed most is the way AFC players are answering backs. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion but no one has the right to abuse anyone even if they are paying their wages. That is not support. Support is when you stay with the players through thick and thin. This will be a season to remember I can assure you.

Right, there’ll be a hearing on Dudu’s work permit on 2nd Aug, next Thur. If ManU could get Anderson one, I don’t see why we can’t, honestly. He played 50% of the international games for Croatia in the past 2 years, including every single game in the past year.

179. Terrorist Sam | July 29th, 2007 at 6:44 pm

Happy belated Birthday GilbertoSilver! Haven’t been around for a couple days and hope everything was alright with the hacker-cunt.

I think Eduardo not playing is because of the work permit.

I think that 4-5-1 really is the way we go. With Eboue, Walcott and presumably another winger being more involved on the wings, it seems Hleb will slot in behind the forward, as could Ade, Eduardo and Rosicky. This also means that our mass of central midfielders can rule the park and all get time on the pitch.

I love those comments, Arsene really is just going to fuck with the press till the end of time. Sub-text definitly is: Someone else is going to come in, but come on people, it’s not going to be le sulk.

Anyone heard his post-match comments?

I think Traore will play 20ish games and we will not see a problem, the way Clichy was more than able to man the left when Cole wasn’t able.

Fuck me, I’m getting excited.
180. davey b | July 29th, 2007 at 6:44 pm

182. Terrorist Sam | July 29th, 2007 at 6:49 pm

And Arsene Wenger is considering hiring former Newcastle boss Glenn Roeder as Arsenal’s sporting director. (Mail on Sunday)

I like this. Roeder is a geniunely nice person who would suit Arsenal great: promoted a lot of the Newcastle youth team while there and did it respectfully and without too many set backs; bought in the likes of Martins; has experience of the whole premiership set-up; seems to not be a cunt but in a way that won’t disadvantage the team.
183. Louisa | July 29th, 2007 at 6:51 pm

A lot of positives from this game, as well as yesterday’s:
- RvP sharpened up over just 2 days, despite playing 45 mins yesterday and a full 90 mins today. He attempted a free kick on the right flank straight at the near post, which got well saved. And don’t forget, after some twists and turns which made the Inter defenders look like schoolboys chasing around, he scored the winner with his RIGHT FOOT!
- Eboue and Sagna started to combine very well, creating tons of chances on the right flank. Sometimes the final ball into the box is not there yet. But their understanding and pace and movement were good. e.g. Sagna crosses the ball to Hleb whose first shot got saved but hit the rebound into the corner of the net; RvP’s winning goal was set up by Eboue.
- For the first time in a while Gallas and Toure seemed to look solid together, though I still think Senderos/Gallas and Senderos/Toure showed more promise yesterday.
- Eboue’s pace is really second to none, turning the Inter defence inside out quite a few times. The much booed captain Materazzi was entirely outrun.
- Gibbs had a decent debut at the Emirates, pacy and lively in the 1st half.
- Hleb’s really dangerous in CM, behind the striker. Before scoring the equaliser, he sent the ball to Toure who shot just wide. And after collecting a cross from Sagna, he confidently shot and, although the first attempt got palmed back, he ran to the left to send the rebound into the far corner. PLEASE, Arsene, PLEASE let him stay in that position! Like I said above, Eboue’s a decent RM/winger, please let Hleb stay there in the middle!
184. WillyG | July 29th, 2007 at 6:51 pm

What a goal from RVP excellent….Overall a good performance againt a good side but they also were missing some good players like Ibrahimovic,Maicon,Vieira,Cambiasso.I thought young Gibbs was good even Sagna look solid at the back + made an assist for Helb`s goal…
185. davey b | July 29th, 2007 at 6:52 pm

179. Terrorist Sam | July 29th, 2007 at 6:44 pm

even though we played well today part of the reason took so long to score was that when the oppurtunity’s arisen there was not a foward in the box to finish , van persie/adebayor are more like number 10 in my opinion and operate mainly outside the box eduardo seem’s to be the only number 09 we have who is a penalty box player so i dont think we should have him coming short for the ball when we have hleb,van persie or other deep lying attacking player’s in the side ,or being shunted out to the wing he cant score goal’s reguarly if he’s not in the box the lad is nt thierry henry with all due respect he should be played for what he was brought for goal’s
186. Spandiar | July 29th, 2007 at 6:52 pm

but roeder is a friend of mourinio…isnt it
187. davey b | July 29th, 2007 at 6:57 pm

i dont mind who inerchange’s position we are the best side in england when it come’s to playing interchanging fluid football but i think one man who should hold his position is jens lehamnn lol ,no only joking i think it should be your 09 your goal scorer your penalty box striker your main goal threat to stay in the box majority of the time
188. Terrorist Sam | July 29th, 2007 at 6:59 pm

davey b: with Eduardo and Bendtner, I think we have our first #9’s in years and hopefully, both succeed. Bendtner seems like he could be a cunt on the pitch, which is always a great advantage when it comes to playing like that (well, those that come to mind, Drogba and Van Nistelrooy were).

Spandiar: From interviews and just the way he acted at Newcastle, I think it would be very hard for anyone in the football world not to be friends with Roeder. The documentary about the woman trying to get every premiership footballer to donate a days wages came to mind, he worked hard so that everyone succeeded, but did it with a smile on his face. Even Jose couldn’t resist I guess. Certainly better suited to Arsenal than the cunts at Newcastle.
189. Louisa | July 29th, 2007 at 7:01 pm

Heheheheee it’s such a small piece of silverware but I’m so happy that I couldn’t type a decent message to tell you what I saw. Guess the arsenal.com people summed it up quite nicely:
http://www.arsenal.com/matchreport.asp?thisNav=fixtures&fxid=319129
190. Terrorist Sam | July 29th, 2007 at 7:01 pm

Also, seeing GilbertoSilver’s comment again, Bendtner surely was just the penalty taker yesterday and that Gilberto will be when he is playing - someone we know can put it away from the spot.
191. WillyG | July 29th, 2007 at 7:04 pm

I think RVp is also a good pen taker
192. WillyG | July 29th, 2007 at 7:06 pm

Where is Djourou,he wasn`t even on the subs bench.Is he injured? I hope we don`t loan him,also Song wasn`t even on the bench,but then again I don`t give a ….
193. Terrorist Sam | July 29th, 2007 at 7:07 pm

And Hleb has learnt to shoot. Next season will be fucking awesome.
194. gooner | July 29th, 2007 at 7:08 pm

Plan A
only champions league and premiership games

__________ Adebayor __________
Da Silva________________ Persie
______ Rosicky____Fabregas_____
__________ Gilberto____________
_ Clichy ________________ Sagna
_______ Gallas__ Toure________
_________ Lehmann___________

Plan B
only FA cup CARLING cup team

__________ Bendtner ___________
Modric ________________ Hleb
______ Diaby ____Flamini _____
__________ Diarra ____________
_ Hoyte ________________ Eboue
____ Senderos __ Djourou ______
___________ Almunia __________
195. Terrorist Sam | July 29th, 2007 at 7:09 pm

WillyG: I don’t know but assuming Djorou was to come back before ANC, I wouldn’t have too big a problem with him going on loan. I don’t think Arsene will let him go though, the squad is tiny even if one or two players are bought.
196. Terrorist Sam | July 29th, 2007 at 7:11 pm

Surely it should be (and still is great as):

__________ Bendtner ___________
Walcott ________________ Hleb
______ Diaby ____Flamini _____
__________ Denilson ____________
_ Hoyte ________________ Eboue
____ Senderos __ Djourou ______
___________ Fabianski __________
197. Terrorist Sam | July 29th, 2007 at 7:14 pm

I think Modric could easily come, don’t think Diarra will. He is only as good as Song (take that how you will) and would be fighting with him, Denilson and Flamini for fourth place CM. And again, he would only be 4th place rightback.
I don’t think the Anelka rumour has any legs either. But with Reyes surely out next week and the premiership starting in two weeks, signings will be happening soon. Wenger sounds confident when talking about getting the players he wants and so on.
198. davey b | July 29th, 2007 at 7:18 pm

if we but diarra i will only be able to come to one conclusion im afraid it’s because he’s french he’s not a great player by any stretch of the amagination and he does’nt occupy any position’s we need filling
199. WillyG | July 29th, 2007 at 7:19 pm

Terrorist Sam,Djourou is a very good back up player so loaning him out would not be the best idea,coz we only have Gallas,Toure,Senderos
200. Louisa | July 29th, 2007 at 7:21 pm

Gooner, Plan A sounds like a good idea, having seen RvP perform so well on the right. This is a flexible 4-3-3/4-5-1 formation that could work.

As for Plan B:
- Traore is better than Hoyte in LB, Hoyte is much better in RB than LB, Eboue should be in RM, Hleb in CM behind the striker.
- Don’t think Chelsea would sell Diarra, probably their most promising kid, to us as they see them as a “new Makelele.”
- Not sure about Modric, either. And our Gibbs boy did well in his first-team debut so perhaps can get a couple of games in the Carling Cup run this year. If Arsene buys a left winger as everyone craves, great. If not, Clichy is decent too.
- In CM, Denilson I think should be there to fight for a place with Diaby and Flamini this year.
- For the CB pairing, hmmm IMO, Gallas/Senderos seemed good yesterday. I think we should keep using Gallas/Kolo as our first-choice for their combined experience. But honestly when it comes to some physical opponents like Bolton, we should let Senderos do the direct things.
201. davey b | July 29th, 2007 at 7:23 pm

clichy is a great little fullback he played really well yesterday eboue has alway’s been one of my favourite player’s i could ‘nt understand why he was getting so much stick alright he can be a bit lazy but when it come’s to wing back’s he is as good as daniel alves ,miguel ,cicinho, he is’nt as bad as defender as some people seem to suggest either is he any worse than lauren i dont think so
202. WillyG | July 29th, 2007 at 7:25 pm

Sagna and Eboue were great on that right side today
203. davey b | July 29th, 2007 at 7:26 pm

as for gallas and toure partering senderos yesterday maybe that is a sign of the time’s to come maybe senderos is building and understanding with gallas for when toure depart’s for the african nation’s
204. WillyG | July 29th, 2007 at 7:28 pm

Has anyone heard Wenger`s comments after the match? as I would like to know if the news regarding Reyes move to Atletico Madrid are true or false

which ever way we set up diaby ,fabregas ,gilberto should be the midfield majority of the time power ,technique desire

the carling cup final last year changed when diaby went off chelsea saw a lot more of the ball -diaby ,he should make the back bone to the side with van persie ,fabregas gilberto ,diaby,toure, gallas,eboue this
could be a really good spine for the arsenal side
206. Charlie Nicholas's Mullet | July 29th, 2007 at 7:44 pm

There were some good points over the 2 days especially today but it should be put into perspective.Pre season in the sun against PSG and a half fit Inter Milan is different from a Tuesday night in Bolton
207. vlcgooner | July 29th, 2007 at 7:49 pm

Hey Guzzup. I didn’t mean to ruin the excitement! I am all smiles today!
208. Valentin | July 29th, 2007 at 8:02 pm

Mark Randall was clearly not ready to play in Arsenal first team. In fact I do not think he will make the grade as Arsenal has an oversupply of centre midfielder: Fabregas, Gilberto, Diaby, Denilson, Flamini, Song, plus potentially Lassana Diara. Except Gilberto Silva all of them are pretty young, so I cannot see him passing ahead of any of them.

Kieran Gibbs was good, but is not yet ready to play a full season for Arsenal. He should go on loan for a season and get first team experience.

Gallas is still not back to the level he was at Chelsea. He was at fault for both goals conceded by Arsenal.

Clichy crossing was decent, the problem was that Bentdner was pretty static. He has to realise that he needs the premiership is a huge step up. Good defenders can read him too easily and know how to use their body to block him. That seems to frustrate him. He wrestle the ball from Eboue for the penalty and then miss it. It was a terrible penalty. He has all the technical and physical ability to succeed at Arsenal, but I am not convinced by his temperament. He looks arrogant and got into an argument with both Van Persie and Hleb today.
209. nick | July 29th, 2007 at 8:03 pm

Not sure why Djourou, Song and Merida was not given any run in the friendlies
210. Terrorist Sam | July 29th, 2007 at 8:19 pm

Valentin: I think Randall will be used more on the sides than centrally. Also, I think, no matter how good Fabregas and Gilberto and Diaby are, Wenger knows that, fuck how big a name they are, if a player can show he is worth playing he will make it into the team. I can see this happening with Merida in years to come at least.
211. Terrorist Sam | July 29th, 2007 at 8:24 pm

nick: it wouldn’t surprise me if at least one of those names is loaned off. Hopefully it is both Merida and Song. Also, these aren’t the first two friendlies of pre-season, Djorou and Song have been given run outs but these two games have been a little bit more focused on a first team than just a run out for everybody.
212. Kanoute | July 29th, 2007 at 8:35 pm

why didnt play adebayor the fly emiratos cup?

In sevillefc forums says adebayor signs for seville in next week (10 millions €)….

Adebayor -> seville?
Anelka -> arsenal?

Sorry for my english , lol : D
213. vlcgooner | July 29th, 2007 at 8:40 pm

Kanoute, I cannot see that happening. Adebayor is a big part of the Arsenal team and highly rated by Wenger (and by me, too!). Why would he dump him to bring in Anelka? Wenger prizes stability and AdeB really works well in the passing game with Fabs, Hleb, and V.Persie. I think that rumor is B.S.

217. Dick (aka Willy) | July 29th, 2007 at 9:11 pm

Just got back from the game - COME ON ARSENAL!!

That piece of turd actually had a decent game!

Traore was devastating, tho - he’s gonne be some player when he’s out of nappies.

One trophy in the bag, 4 more to go…
218. Dick (aka Willy) | July 29th, 2007 at 9:12 pm

Sorry, that “piece of turd” I was talking about was Hleb. Hope he carries his good run of form into the season.
219. Terrorist Sam | July 29th, 2007 at 9:20 pm

“We have Djourou, who is injured at the moment, as well. ”

I think this answers the Djorou question - he will be about next season and we won’t need another centre back.
220. Vivas | July 29th, 2007 at 9:21 pm

Dont know if anyone is interested but just read on the Marca website that Reyes has joined A Madrid for 12m euros
221. Terrorist Sam | July 29th, 2007 at 9:25 pm

Dick - I think Traore is gonna have a cracking season like Clichy did before Cole left and we are gonna have two great full backs fighting for a place in the season after next.
Also, I think Hleb really depends on runs of good games, when he fell behind last season it only made matters worse with his confidence. If he starts well and has to compete seriously with Walcott and Eboue, he should be great.
I was at work though so as someone who was there, what caught the eye?
222. Terrorist Sam | July 29th, 2007 at 9:29 pm

vivas - if it has happened, it’ll be confirmed tomorrow morn. next week should be awesome and hopefully we will have a full squad prepared by the amsterdam thingy.

225. Dan Nystedt | July 29th, 2007 at 9:35 pm

Aah. Good to see VLC Gooner and Mr Serge are ecstatic about Arsenal wining their first, last and only trophy of the season. Aah yes. Vindication that the ‘bedwetters’ are sure to shut up now eh? Yeah, confounded all the critics with that one eh? Now I am sure this puts us as 9-11 on clearl favourites for the Premiership title? LOL. Pathetic. Emirates cup victory: cue delirious celebrations from the rose-tinted brigade. As CNM said in post 203. Playing a pedestrian Inter Milan in pre-season…and playing a fully fit Liverpool at Anfield in December will be 2 very different things I can assure you. I also like the way the rose-tints forgot to actually mention that, yet again, Arse had a gazillion chances and wasted a catalogue of them - only to see the opposition go ahead with virtually thei first chance on goal. If that happens next season again then, I guess we will beat United home and away and beat Pool at home. Rose-tints will be over the moon…until we once again finish 21 pts behind the leaders and get dicked on by Man City and Everton. The rose-tints will STILL tell us we are the bestets team in the world cos we can iwn one-ff games against United and Pool. Yeah sure….

On the positive side, Hleb was fucking good today. Shame his manager’s tactics are so shit he’ll play him out of position wide-right yet AGAIN next season. Eboue was also fucking good and RVP is a genius - until he injures himself again.

Sagna and Hoyte were both their usual toilet selves.
226. Dan Nystedt | July 29th, 2007 at 9:36 pm

THIS is a balanced REALISTIC assessment of things from a man who knows more about football and Arsenal than any of these wannabe know-nothings like mr Serge and VLC Gooner will ever know.
————————————————————————
The Daily Telegraph has Setanta commentator Manu Petit saying, in a long article: “I am afraid for Arsenal. To be honest, I think they will not finish in the top four….because when I see Manchester United and Liverpool and Chelsea, they are stronger than them.

“On one game Arsenal can beat anyone, but over a whole season you can feel the strength and power of the other teams. When I see Newcastle, and Tottenham as well, they are becoming stronger. I can understand Freddie.”

“This season is a very important one for Arsenal: if they are not in the Champions League next season they will be dead financially unless [American businessman Stan] Kroenke buys the club.”

“You know what they need to have: the fighting spirit, definitely. If they play only beautiful football, it will work in the Champions League, but it will be difficult in the Premiership. Look at United: they were fighting on the pitch; they fight for every ball and they [the Arsenal players] need to understand that. I want to see them play with big character. I don’t want to see players fighting like dogs, like they do sometimes; you fight and you shut up and get on with it. You concentrate on your game. The only thing that is important is that the team win.

“I am not sure that Arsenal have that attitude. I saw it rarely last season, except when they beat Manchester United 2-1 at home. For the last 20 minutes I saw a real team. But they would win one game, then lose the next two. They need to be consistent.”

“You cannot win trophies with youngsters. Arsenal need more experience. The only experience they have is Gilberto, Kolo Toure, Jens Lehmann and William Gallas. As for the others, they are young and without any experience for the big games. There are no leaders. When we won the Double in 1998, how many players were young? There were only two: Nicolas Anelka and Patrick Vieira. And in 2002, the team they called the ‘Invincibles’, how many young players? Exactly!”
227. TH14 aka Fab4 | July 29th, 2007 at 10:14 pm

I hope that we win the Dutch cup(?) so that this young team will see that this team can win trophies albeit not the biggest in europe but they all count! then they may realise that they can win a big trophy and i believe that they will win at least 1 trophy this season
228. Jonah | July 29th, 2007 at 10:20 pm

I really wish all the Doom-mongers would shut the fuck up!
We WILL win a trophy this season I for one strongly believe that we have the necessary quality to do so. The UEFA Fair Play Trophy will be OURS! Make NO mistake! Lol….
Without at least two super-class signings we’ll be luck to win the Milk Cup LOL…
229. Gunafied | July 29th, 2007 at 10:27 pm

Arsene is building a record breaking team for the future. Dont be suprised if HE BRINGS IN ROBINHO. ROBINHO the next record arsenal signing!!! - from an anonymous source. Wait n see!
230. David A | July 29th, 2007 at 10:31 pm

Good overall today, but its very hard to judge pre season as it doesnt really matter and the players are tired from intense training. RVP showed what we all know he can do and hopefully will stay fit.
There is just one thing that has me concerned and that is our defending of high balls and crosses. I said in a post a couple of months ago that Gallas and Toure were not suited to defending this kind of attack and i have not changed my mind. Gallas was very poor for the goal today as he didnt pressure the goalscorer enough in the air.
U might think that this is not important but what are Bolton , Everton, Blackburn e.t.c. going to do against us in the middle of winter up north? Attack with the football on the ground. I dont think so. They are going to play defensive, long ball football and kick us at every available oppurtunity. There is no point giving out that they play shit football. They will play that way because they are not stupid and based on the last 2 seasons, it is a good way to trouble Arsenal.
We all praised Reading for the way they tried to play football against us but they got hammered. They wont make the same mistake again.
In conclusion, the only way we will stop teams trying this tactic against us is to counter it and show them that we are not “soft” in the air and easily rattled but some sly digs behind the refs back.

237. GunnerShabz | July 29th, 2007 at 11:10 pm

just come back from london to leicester, damn what a day…

anyways the game was good, van persie well i told the geeza next to me, watch he will do the turn and score and what did he do….

it was a good game, we was all over them really, they had one chance and well they buried it, sloppy defending.

but watching from the stands, people are happy to just be in the top four.

but hleb look good, i think the left hand side is where he can play.

traore is brillant, this guy is so strong on the ball.

fabregas, this guy is a gem of a player, he controled the midfield and i was just watchin him for like 10 mins and he was everywhere centrally controlling the game, dacourt was nowhere

eboue, well this guy loves diving, he can be frustrating but he is good on the wing, needs to get more crosses in.

bendtner got a good touch and can hold play.

sagna, well he is good defensivly but forward play he needs to improve but he strong, no nonsense fullback.

kieran gibbs the crowd loved him, he worked hard and well the best bit was when he just toke out materazzi.

but good day overall, robin van persie is worshipped all over emirates now.
238. Rabbi Savvy | July 29th, 2007 at 11:11 pm

blogger knowing or not knowing does not mean players know it all. If you have a point to make give the logic. Wenger won fuck all as a player but he is a far better manager than Bryan robson or mark hughes. winning trophy or scoring goals does not mean u r always right in analyzing the game.
239. NO OFFENCE | July 29th, 2007 at 11:29 pm

240. Terrorist Sam | July 29th, 2007 at 11:43 pm

I don’t want to see players fighting like dogs, like they do sometimes; you fight and you shut up and get on with it. You concentrate on your game. The only thing that is important is that the team win.

——————
I stopped reading what you were saying when you quoted someone who never cared for the club and doesn’t know anything about this club that he just happened to have played for 2 or 3 teams ago. But I started really calling bullshit on this part. Arsenal have the strongest reserve and character of any team in the premiership and every fucking game we won and drew from behind proves that, not just a big money game against united. If this defence spends all year together and adapts to each other’s style of play unlike the two years of an ever-changing back four, we will let in half the sloppy goals we did last season. Add this to the fact that comments coming from the players show they now anticipate the relegation battlers as much as chelsea and we have a team who yearn to maintain a years’ worth of killing off teams and beautifully.

So I say, fuck you. We are competeting next year for the league like 3 other teams. Fuck City or Spurs, hoping for Europe. We are aiming for the league and yes, we are doing it on the cheap. (Incidentally, there is a great piece in today’s OSM about evil foreign investment.) We have never jumped on the bandwagon for the sake of it and with Reyes leaving this week and Wenger’s comments over the past couple days, we will have a fuller squad than now still. We are determined that we can win, we are determined that if we do our best and wipe our arses with the world’s collective checkbook, we can prove that ambition and love overpowers greed and ignorance. Even if we don’t win it next year, I am sure we will still be competeting going into the final quarter of the season.

And this is because the team are determined to win, not because of the Emirates Cup. But it’s not to say the Emirates Cup doesn’t say anything about the climate of the season ahead. We are challanging the winners of Serie A, whose B team could wipe the floor of any of these American or Korean teams being played by the other top four. We are preparing ourselves to be thrown in at the deep end - our kids have had enough time to learn to swim.

Also, it’s not just next season that excites me - it’s the next five years. The next ten even. This is a team that undoubtedly will qualify for the champions league next season - we did it the last two seasons with lesser squads than this year due to injuries and inexperience. But given a glimpse of success this season, as we are now worthy of challanging (yes, with another signing or two), this team that is sticking together will learn to destroy the premiership. You may think I’m mental but it will become a lot easier in the coming years even if you forget about our team developing into a world class squad - Ferguson is going to retire any time soon as will Giggs, Neville, Scholes and Van der Sar; the rift between money grabbers Lampard, Terry, Cole etc. and the big names not worthy of being played in Ballack, SWP and Shevchenko and a backroom staff that Jose doesn’t want and doesn’t want Jose all could implode at any second; Liverpool need to win the premiership every year to survive economically and that still won’t be enough to deal with paying off takeover and stadium debts. These are the start of great times at Arsenal football club, even if we do come 4th or 5th next season. But I genuinely believe we won’t and I believe that even if the Emirates Cup didn’t sit in our trophy cabinet or not, we’d still be on the verge of something great finally happening.
241. Terrorist Sam | July 29th, 2007 at 11:52 pm

Shabz: Great to hear you had a great day, the look on the tele looked amazing for the fans. I don’t think at any other club in the country they could have a home friendly and get sixty thousand turn up. I can also understand the worshipping of van Persie, that goal was just stunning - if it happened in a competetive match, it could have been goal of the month or year even. The boy is special. I expect nothing short of a phenominal season.

Also, listening to everything said by the club and manager post Henry has got me thinking - he seems like he was a real cunt at the club. The players seem more happy, excited and believe they have a real chance to challange without him there. It’s as if he constantly belittled them for not being the invinsible team and it wouldn’t surprise me if this is true. Van Persie could never be Bergkamp as Clichy could never be Cole, Eboue never Lauren, Hleb never Pires and so on. They all seem so much more calm and controlled on the pitch without his expectations looming - they only have to prove their worth to themselves and not their disappointed captain who is too old to wait for success.
242. Darkins | July 30th, 2007 at 12:25 am

So Terrorist Sam you ’stopped reading’ when you saw Petit’s name?

Strange. Cos I stopped reading the minute I saw you writing about how we can ‘win the league on the cheap’.LOL. Course we can son…The Emirates Cup has propelled us to the heigts of glory innit? Ha ha. Pathetic.
Yeah Sammy-boy. We’ll compete. Know why? Cos Terrorist Sam said we would! Yes! Who is Petit? Only won a WC and a Double innit…Wr are NOT league challengers nor will we be until Wenger bothers making 2 top signings. Until then? dream on if you think these kids have the necessary bottle to do it week in week out over the course of a whole season.
Wakey wakey! remember those 12, 24 and 21 pts? How do you reckon we’ll improve on that Sam? Oh yeah I know….SELL HENRY! And replace him with….DUDU! Lol…sure United and Pool will be shitting it now!
244. Jonah | July 30th, 2007 at 12:52 am

Akinbayor is SHITE. Period. Crap first-touch, shit finisher and pathetic attitude.
245. Rabbi Savvy | July 30th, 2007 at 1:10 am

People were talking of 2 good signings last year. we got Baptista and Gallas and how much did they contribute? Signings are needed on the wings but there are no guarantees of anything. I do not think ManU supporters were happy when rvN went out and carrick came in but they won the league. if you heard umpteen times trophy winner Hansen, chelsea would have won the league and manU could have never won anything with the kids.

talking of double winner and WC winner, you can also listen to Gilberto who has similar if not better credentials.
246. Jonah | July 30th, 2007 at 1:23 am

Yeah bla bla bla…12 pts, 24 pts and 21 pts the only stats that count. Oh and United signed a proven PL player in Carrick. Not some 15 year-old Ugandan embryo. There is the difference.
Until I see an Arsenal team finish withn at least 3 pts of the leaders the sorry Rabbi Twit but everything you say otherwise is nothing but hogwash…Yeah sure. A Ribery or Simao wouldn’t have improved our team. Oh yea and speaking of references: Capello, Hitzfeld and Lippi have all said Arsenal have ‘no chance’ in the league this year or in Europe. For the record, all these managers shit on Arsene with their cvs. Must be about 3-4 CLs and over 20 league titles between them.

Or there’s Rabbi the radical dreamer blogger who thinks Arsenal can bridge the 21 pt gap from last season by signing nobody and selling their best players. P.S Gallas and Baptista were NOT additions. They were straight REPLACEMENTS for Cunt and Reyes. Additions? Don’t think AW knows you are allowed to ADD players without giving away your best ones. Bring back Pires on pay-as-you-play deal…
247. Well-endowed gooner | July 30th, 2007 at 3:11 am

I like Anelka. He has an elongated head, and an aesthetically pleasing shaved skull. It makes him look somewhat like a pharaoh.

I saw 16 year old Belgian hotshot Helmut Crapschaft on youTube today. Awesome player. We should definitely buy him. Has a penis like a bazooka.

1954: Three continents see eclipse of sun
Millions of people have witnessed a total eclipse of the sun as the moon cast its shadow from America through Europe and on to Asia.

For people in Britain it was the first time they could see this natural phenomenon since 1927.

From Greenwich to Glasgow, thousands of skywatchers using smoked glass or overexposed film could see at least 75% of the sun obscured.

But the view from the most northerly island of Britain - the Shetland isle of Unst, and the only point of totality in Britain - was largely obscured by cloud and drizzle.

When the sun was totally eclipsed by the moon, the skies turned dark for a few seconds, the temperature dropped and birds flew back to their nests.

There will not be another total eclipse visible from Britain until August 1999.

Shadow across the world

The shadow was first spotted in Nebraska, North America, at 1208 BST today. It then passed over Labrador and across the Atlantic at a speed of about 1,800 mph (2,897 km/h).

The eclipse was seen in Greenland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Belarus, Ukraine, Russia, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan and India.

In India, 400,000 Hindu pilgrims bathed in holy water at Kurukhestan in the Punjab. They believe that the eclipse is caused by two gods, Rahu and Ketu, trying to swallow the Sun and Moon.

The longest duration of totality was two minutes 35 seconds.

In Sweden about 400 scientists from all over the world gathered to observe the eclipse which cast an 80-mile (128-km) shadow across the country.

It is hoped data from observing the corona - the outer atmosphere of the sun, that is highlighted by such an eclipse - will teach us more about the shape of the Earth, positions of the moon and the rays of the sun.

The eclipse was seen in Greenland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Belarus, Ukraine, Russia, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan and India.

In India, 400,000 Hindu pilgrims bathed in holy water at Kurukhestan in the Punjab. They believe that the eclipse is caused by two gods, Rahu and Ketu, trying to swallow the Sun and Moon.

The longest duration of totality was two minutes 35 seconds.

In Sweden about 400 scientists from all over the world gathered to observe the eclipse which cast an 80-mile (128-km) shadow across the country.

It is hoped data from observing the corona - the outer atmosphere of the sun, that is highlighted by such an eclipse - will teach us more about the shape of the Earth, positions of the moon and the rays of the sun.
1954: Three continents see eclipse of sun
Millions of people have witnessed a total eclipse of the sun as the moon cast its shadow from America through Europe and on to Asia.

For people in Britain it was the first time they could see this natural phenomenon since 1927.

From Greenwich to Glasgow, thousands of skywatchers using smoked glass or overexposed film could see at least 75% of the sun obscured.

But the view from the most northerly island of Britain - the Shetland isle of Unst, and the only point of totality in Britain - was largely obscured by cloud and drizzle.

When the sun was totally eclipsed by the moon, the skies turned dark for a few seconds, the temperature dropped and birds flew back to their nests.

There will not be another total eclipse visible from Britain until August 1999.

Shadow across the world

The shadow was first spotted in Nebraska, North America, at 1208 BST today. It then passed over Labrador and across the Atlantic at a speed of about 1,800 mph (2,897 km/h).

The eclipse was seen in Greenland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Belarus, Ukraine, Russia, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan and India.

In India, 400,000 Hindu pilgrims bathed in holy water at Kurukhestan in the Punjab. They believe that the eclipse is caused by two gods, Rahu and Ketu, trying to swallow the Sun and Moon.

The longest duration of totality was two minutes 35 seconds.

In Sweden about 400 scientists from all over the world gathered to observe the eclipse which cast an 80-mile (128-km) shadow across the country.

It is hoped data from observing the corona - the outer atmosphere of the sun, that is highlighted by such an eclipse - will teach us more about the shape of the Earth, positions of the moon and the rays of the sun.
1954: Three continents see eclipse of sun
Millions of people have witnessed a total eclipse of the sun as the moon cast its shadow from America through Europe and on to Asia.

For people in Britain it was the first time they could see this natural phenomenon since 1927.

From Greenwich to Glasgow, thousands of skywatchers using smoked glass or overexposed film could see at least 75% of the sun obscured.

But the view from the most northerly island of Britain - the Shetland isle of Unst, and the only point of totality in Britain - was largely obscured by cloud and drizzle.

In Sweden about 400 scientists from all over the world gathered to observe the eclipse which cast an 80-mile (128-km) shadow across the country.

It is hoped data from observing the corona - the outer atmosphere of the sun, that is highlighted by such an eclipse - will teach us more about the shape of the Earth, positions of the moon and the rays of the sun.
1954: Three continents see eclipse of sun
Millions of people have witnessed a total eclipse of the sun as the moon cast its shadow from America through Europe and on to Asia.

For people in Britain it was the first time they could see this natural phenomenon since 1927.

From Greenwich to Glasgow, thousands of skywatchers using smoked glass or overexposed film could see at least 75% of the sun obscured.

But the view from the most northerly island of Britain - the Shetland isle of Unst, and the only point of totality in Britain - was largely obscured by cloud and drizzle.

When the sun was totally eclipsed by the moon, the skies turned dark for a few seconds, the temperature dropped and birds flew back to their nests.

There will not be another total eclipse visible from Britain until August 1999.

In India, 400,000 Hindu pilgrims bathed in holy water at Kurukhestan in the Punjab. They believe that the eclipse is caused by two gods, Rahu and Ketu, trying to swallow the Sun and Moon.

The longest duration of totality was two minutes 35 seconds.

In Sweden about 400 scientists from all over the world gathered to observe the eclipse which cast an 80-mile (128-km) shadow across the country.

It is hoped data from observing the corona - the outer atmosphere of the sun, that is highlighted by such an eclipse - will teach us more about the shape of the Earth, positions of the moon and the rays of the sun.
1954: Three continents see eclipse of sun
Millions of people have witnessed a total eclipse of the sun as the moon cast its shadow from America through Europe and on to Asia.

For people in Britain it was the first time they could see this natural phenomenon since 1927.

From Greenwich to Glasgow, thousands of skywatchers using smoked glass or overexposed film could see at least 75% of the sun obscured.

But the view from the most northerly island of Britain - the Shetland isle of Unst, and the only point of totality in Britain - was largely obscured by cloud and drizzle.

When the sun was totally eclipsed by the moon, the skies turned dark for a few seconds, the temperature dropped and birds flew back to their nests.

There will not be another total eclipse visible from Britain until August 1999.

But the view from the most northerly island of Britain - the Shetland isle of Unst, and the only point of totality in Britain - was largely obscured by cloud and drizzle.

When the sun was totally eclipsed by the moon, the skies turned dark for a few seconds, the temperature dropped and birds flew back to their nests.

There will not be another total eclipse visible from Britain until August 1999.

Shadow across the world

The shadow was first spotted in Nebraska, North America, at 1208 BST today. It then passed over Labrador and across the Atlantic at a speed of about 1,800 mph (2,897 km/h).

The eclipse was seen in Greenland, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Belarus, Ukraine, Russia, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan and India.

In India, 400,000 Hindu pilgrims bathed in holy water at Kurukhestan in the Punjab. They believe that the eclipse is caused by two gods, Rahu and Ketu, trying to swallow the Sun and Moon.

The longest duration of totality was two minutes 35 seconds.

In Sweden about 400 scientists from all over the world gathered to observe the eclipse which cast an 80-mile (128-km) shadow across the country.

It is hoped data from observing the corona - the outer atmosphere of the sun, that is highlighted by such an eclipse - will teach us more about the shape of the Earth, positions of the moon and the rays of the sun.

263. Geekov | July 30th, 2007 at 8:47 am

Good showing yesterday, not getting carried away, that only happens on Friday nights.

Still, some good performances; Top goal from RvP (God I hope he stays fit), Hleb in the hole, looks a lot more dangerous, or on the left even, blimey the guy’s a goal machine, Eboue as a RM? Well, at least it means he doesnt have to do too much defending, Sagna, looked solid, played well, and Gibbs the 17 YO, played wqell.

It was typical Arsenal tho, all the play dominate and we still ended up trailing! Good comebcak though.

So, 2 more signings to come then? I’d be happy with that.

But who????
264. lionar | July 30th, 2007 at 8:56 am

Morning fellow gooners, seems as if were starting to get rid of some of the cobwebs, I think once Ade and Walcot are back that will really help and Im looking forward to seeing more of Eduardo too.
265. aka mike | July 30th, 2007 at 8:59 am

is it true that diarra will sign for arsenal for 2m and what about modric is he coming as well
266. Terrorist Sam | July 30th, 2007 at 9:05 am

Good morning Geekov.

aka mike: I don’t think Diarra is coming.
I think Reyes will be sorted by at least the end of the week, maybe be the end of the day. So hopefully we fucking well buy someone! Modric would be awesome, but he isn’t a wide player is he… Anyone know much about Kieran Gibbs and if he can take the big step? Or how he plays?

Postscript: Regarding my comments yesterday, they were clearly based on us getting two more good signings and how the team spirit/fitness had lifted post-Henry. I honestly think we can be fighting for the title by the end of the season (notice I’m not saying winning it) and at least come away with one trophy.
267. lionar | July 30th, 2007 at 9:15 am

Definately we will improve on last seasaon. Only seen Gibbs the once.
But I thought it was especially nice to see us playing a 451 system I think we can definately fluctuate btwn 451/433/442 and always attack well.
268. TopCat. | July 30th, 2007 at 9:18 am

Not getting carried away - the results against PSG and Inter were moral lifting for supporters and the team….. Hleb is looking more confident - and while you can point out that we had lots of chances and didnt score - and they had one chance and did - you must also remember that these were 2 exibition games!

Just enjoy the moment - next week its the LG tournament - Ive got my tickets! ; )

great goal by RVP and what impressed more than anything on the pitch was his obvious enthusiasm in the post match interview.

Its def worth checking out.

269. Geekov | July 30th, 2007 at 9:21 am

If we get a couple more signings, get lucky with injuries, then sure we can challenge.

BTW; the team spirit/togetherness was sooo beautiful to behold! And I thought RvP’s post match interview was funny as fook!
270. Terrorist Sam | July 30th, 2007 at 9:24 am

TC: I think that Hleb shot, had it blocked and then shot again for the goal will put a smile on the faces of pretty much every arsenal fan. (Well except those who just want us to fail.)
271. TopCat. | July 30th, 2007 at 9:29 am

Morning Geekov !!

Glenn Roeder as Director of football.???

Right, thats me for a while.

Just cant hang around here all day you know!

Well, considering some of the shite on here, it aint difficult.

InAbit
273. TopCat. | July 30th, 2007 at 9:31 am

TS - If you watch both games, we created a lot of chances and Hleb and Flamini both had a good few shooting opportunities.

Hleb - I would fucking love it if he was our star player this season and somehow managed to get 10-15 goals!!!
274. TopCat. | July 30th, 2007 at 9:31 am

Obviously I mean star midfielder…

RVP is going to get at least 25.
275. lionar | July 30th, 2007 at 9:32 am

Morning TC, what so you think the chances of the dark ones chilling out a little are? Whilst these victories dnt prove that we will have an amazing season they at least show what we have been saying all along that this team has fantastic potential. I bet they dnt attach as much importance to these victories against stornger oposition than they do tp the loss against weaker oposition!
276. ron | July 30th, 2007 at 9:39 am

i see i was up early this morning & even used a capital letter in my name!! hope u all read my post & didn just skip over it like i did.

TC - last week i said that i felt we needed 2 more players, cant mind if u did, but others defo did, “ur not a real fan” blah blah…

& i cant even mind the guys name who said, “well until u win 2 doubles, i will render ur arguements useless”!!!!!!!!

well now AW said it, which confirms what i always thought, he is an avid reader of this blog, just for my posts cos arsene knows… that i know my footy & he is now just copying me.

think im joking?? just wait & see, in his post match interviews he’ll soon be wearing sunglasses with two beautiful women each side of him & saying “i have a large cock”.

you’ll see.
277. Bergkamp | July 30th, 2007 at 9:43 am

Things are looking good this season. We’ll be able to adapt the way we play and the formations and the goals so far from certain players have been very promising.

Can’t wait til the season starts…
278. Romford Pele | July 30th, 2007 at 9:43 am

RVP 16-1 to top score this season. fill yer boots
279. ron | July 30th, 2007 at 9:52 am

apparently reyes will be sold to A Madrid this week for £8m.

AW: “we will make an announcement shortly, he will not be returning to arsenal”.

also, i dont think we will be signing anelka
280. aka mike | July 30th, 2007 at 9:58 am

if reyes go that means we need at least 1 winger and modric can help as and what about diarra joining arsenal would that mean an end to song
281. ron | July 30th, 2007 at 10:05 am

post 256, i actually do have a twin!!!!!!!!

not sure about diarra, JM wouldnt sell him to us considering AW ability to spot young talent. if he did ask about him, then surely JM would think that perhaps he is missing something & would then keep him

Mate - dark ones will find negitivity even in the brightest of days.

We can say 100 times, that we all know it was a friendly, but are glad with the result. They will say that we are rose tinted because we had lots of chances and didnt score 5.

So while we celebrate coming out on top - they boo, hiss and say we are still rubbish.

Each to their own…

Did you watch the RVP video?

ron,

I had a lenghty chat with a few of the doom brigade - they say I am far too optimistic.

I am trying to balance out my opinions.

I agree that 2 additions to the squad would benifit us over the course of a season - I have no doubt that we can beat anyone on our day - but to keep competitive over a season, you need a strong squad and we may suffer if we pick up a few injuries.

I look forward to seeing that interview with Wenger… ; )

I was at work though so as someone who was there, what caught the eye?”

TERRORIST SAM —

– RVP was brilliant, always working space for himself.
– SAGNA did well and showed what great pace he possesses, tho I wasn’t too impressed with his final ball once he’d worked some space for himself on the right side. He also seemed to be putting ‘blind’ balls into the box when there was only one Arsenal attacker against five Inter defenders. Defensively tho, he was fairly solid.
– TRAORE only got half of the second half, but played really well, great penetratoin and skinned three Inter players at the byline when it seemed like there was no way out - great skill.
– GIBBS is gonna be some player too - played practically the whole game and came off to a standing ovation - which he deserved. Was good going forward, was good going back, always wanted the ball, never looked out of place.
– FLAMINI looked really up for it, obviously has settled all his problems with Wenger.

Have to say tho, Inter were pretty damn shit. Don’t think we would have had as much freedom through the middle had Vieira and Cambiasso been playing. They had fuck-all up front, either. One chance all game and they score - TYPICAL!
285. lionar | July 30th, 2007 at 10:24 am

TC computer at work shit/slow cnt hear anything so no to RVP video, what was said?
Ron we all (I think) agree that one or two more players would be good but I still think we would be fine if we didnt get them, we will def challenge for the league if the Fergie can say as much then there must be some truth in it. Also did you notice how much freer the team looked, and was it me or did Gallas look happier? So does this mean hes like a chld and you have to rub his ego to get the best out of him?
286. TopCat. | July 30th, 2007 at 10:28 am

Dick. - not aimed at you - but

No one is pretending for a second that this game means we are now automatic favourites for the league - or even that we played amazing football and scored 5 goals….

but, what I fail to understand is the fucking hypocracy of the anti-gunners.

We lose 1-0 to salzburg - and it proves that we are shit

We beat PSG and Inter - and they are just friendlies and we are rose tinted, simply for expressing happiness for having won them!

Next up, the LG tournament - Lazio, Alhletico, Ajax and us.

If we win that too - then it will be another round of posts saying its “only friendlies” - for fuck sake - if you spend your whole life willing a team to lose, then you will never be happy when they win.

We all agree that 1-2 new additions would be great - AW seems to be hinting toward them too…

re Sagna - did I make a mistake - I thought he pulled it back to Hleb for the goal against Inter?

Overall - lots of positives.

And amazing goal by RVP.
287. TopCat. | July 30th, 2007 at 10:31 am

Lionar - don’t quote me, but RVP said something like there is a really great positive feeling around the club, that this core group of young players can really go far this season. They have all improved and are really enjoying playing together and they believe in themselves….etc etc…

…very refreshing to hear…
288. lionar | July 30th, 2007 at 10:33 am

TC no mistake Sagna did pull it back for Hleb. If we were to get players I think it would have to be in the wide areas definately Id love us to get Renato Augusto just because it would be another one those ‘huh’ classic Wenger siginings oh and because hes going to be pretty awesome! has Di Maria def signed for Benfica, hes sposed to be siging today isnt he?
289. lionar | July 30th, 2007 at 10:35 am

TC good to hear, I just hope they dnt read some of the crap thats been said in the blogs, nough to depress/infruriate anybody.

So any amusing rumours regarding whos coming? I think the diara rumour is weak ass!

re: Sagna

You’re right, he did pull the ball back for Pleb. I think Sagna looked good - however, despite that one good pull back, the rest were waist-height crosses that bounced off Inter defenders. First and foremost tho Sagna is a defender, and defensively he was nothing but sound yesterday.

Still think we need a world-class winger, a la Ribery or Ronaldo mould. Such a shame Utd pipped us to Nani. We could have had him last season for half of what Utd paid. Wenger had been watching Nani for years.
