17.59 – Arsenal 4-1 Boro (Henry, Quedrue og, Pires, Ljungberg).
A nice Saturday afternoon involves a bit of food, a beer or two, a wee nip from the garden, and Arsenal strolling to victory over some hapless opponents. So this was a nice Saturday afternoon.
Spoiled only by the fact we only won 4-1. We should be crushing teams like Boro at least 12 or 14-0. That we went so long in the first half without scoring is an indication that we need a whole new approach to the way we play and when you think about it we should be the Harlem Globetrotters of football, dazzling the oppo stupid with our tricktacular skills. When will people realise that we can’t just beat teams 4-1 and think that’s good enough?
We should go in at half time hanging our heads in shame if we haven’t scored at least six.
If you could see what Henry can do in FIFA2004/CM4 then you’d know anything less than 80 goals a season is just taking the piss. Still, we can only hope things improve somehow before it gets any worse.
Thanks for fucking up my weekend Arsenal. Thanks a fucking lot.
08.38 – In work this morning. Will my bad luck never end?
As such a very short round up of stuff before we start the Borothon©. Ashley Cole looks to have recovered from his shoulder injury and will probably play. Kanu is likely to continue up front with Thierry Henry, and Arsene Wenger has some nice things to say about him and gives some info about his departure to the African Nations Cup later this month. Jens Lehmann has been charged with improper conduct for stupidly chucking the ball at Kevin Phillips’ head in the game against Southampton. Having already been warned over his future conduct after the Old Trafford Disaster I expect he’ll get banned for a game or two. The Guardian says Wiltord and Kanu will leave in the summer. No great surprises there then.
Right, I’m off to teach these Spaniards a proper language. More later.
