    Interesting formation from Arsenal at the moment.

    11-0-0

    Terrible tackle


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,126 ✭✭✭BrianJD


    I feel like puking......


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,315 ✭✭✭✭amacachi


    Now getting the ball isn't enough to stop it being a foul. :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 30,275 ✭✭✭✭Quazzie


    Absolutely no outlet for Arsenal when they clear. Barca really being allowed into the game because of this.

    How many of those go in against Arsenal in every PL match and is deemed a great strong tackle? Ugh.


    Very much an attack v defence match so far tonight, odd to be on the defensive side. :pac:

    Arsenal defending well, Barca sloppy


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,588 ✭✭✭daithijjj


    Walcott is a big miss for arsenal tonight, sometimes pure pace is just a good outlet to have.

    It's just your turn to take it is all.

    Barcas defence could take a nap if they wanted Arsenal are offering that little.
    Nasty from Clichy.

    Arsenal are not going to be able to keep this pressure up. Barcelona are going to wear Arsenal down unless Arsenal have a bit of possession.

    Playing without a goalkeeper??



    Awaits the inevitable Almunia joke...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 56,089 ✭✭✭✭Headshot


    Classy from Pedro asking for a booking


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 30,275 ✭✭✭✭Quazzie


    Good ould Sergio signalling for a yellow for Clichy. What a horrible person he is.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,056 ✭✭✭applehunter


    Not quite the blockbuster I was hoping for.

    Sssshhh you are not allowed the poor disciplinary record that Arsenal have.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,315 ✭✭✭✭amacachi


    Van Persie may as well not be on and Diaby is worse than having no-one on.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,315 ✭✭✭✭amacachi

    We need to hold it. Even if we can't go forward, surely we can pass it a bit better to each other. Come on Half Time....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 30,275 ✭✭✭✭Quazzie


    Why was it stopped. Its not a head injury.

    Oh now I see.; The ref needed a drink.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 16,017 ✭✭✭✭ctrl-alt-delete


    Nasty? Really ?
    Must have been, did you see the pain in Alves face?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 962 ✭✭✭Triangle


    Hopefully arsenal get it on in the second half, but what's up with the ref decisions so far?

    Diaby's tracking a lot of the runs. A thankless task, but he's doing it well.

    I've invented a new drinking game, every time Fat Trevor Welsh says ''Ooh and Barcelona might be in here'' you have to down your bottle of beer. I only started after 10 minutes and I'm well on my way to drunksville.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,604 ✭✭✭Kev_ps3


    Should have been a peno!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,315 ✭✭✭✭amacachi


    Why do Barcelona get the restart?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    I fear this ref is gonna ruin this game.
