Munich Air Disaster?
1 comment December 18th, 2004
Apologies for the horrible distateful headline, but it fits so well that I felt compelled by some unearthly force.
Allow me to explain: We’ve drawn Bayern Munich, and they are very good in the air, especially from set-pieces. We are not. Therefore, we could be in a lot of trouble.
But then again, we might not. With a new goalkeeper and renewed confidence, we have the opportunity to build some defensive stability by the February tie. This is something that could be helped by the possible return of Gilberto Silva.
It’ll be interesting to see if Jens Lehmann can regain his spot by then, in order to face off against his arch-rival, Oliver Kahn.
He certainly has a chance, especially when you consider that Arsene is very unlikely to bring in a new ‘keeper. Or anyone at all, in fact. Including Ledley King.
This, of course, excludes the signing of Manu Eboué – a story which we brought you first, I’ll have you know.
I’m very busy with a bit of a business at the moment, so updates will be somewhat erratic, as ever.
Pompey on Sunday. I like them. So let’s beat them marginally. 17-0, perhaps.
