He got done for it being aimed at an official IIRC.

Should be more on account of being so stupid :lol:

The FFA are always so lenient on Suarez :oops:

Tom Ince got a 2 game ban earlier this season for the same thing too. Looks like they're wanting to crack down on it more.

Suarez got a 1 game ban and yet jack gets 2 for the same thing :lol:

Suarez was given a similar punishment wasn't he against Fulham?

Maybe Jack should address his short-mans disease which makes him such a petulant little shite? :lol:

Thankfully we have an abundance of quality midfielders. Thank christ it wasn't BFG

So Jack's been suspended for 2 games for giving the City fans the finger. Complete fucking joke. Apprently the FA considers being caught giving the finger in a photograph to be a lesser offence than being caught on tv giving the finger. Not really sure how they figured that out.

I always said the Chelsea game was the more important one to win...

Win it and we're top at Christmas, two clear of Liverpool (who play Chelsea and Man City over Christmas/New Year) and 5 clear of Chelsea. Lose it and I wouldn't be surprised if we dropped another result over the festive period.

[-o< [-o< [-o<

This is a must win, possibly the most important game all season. Win and the players will believe again, lose and the losses to Napoli and City will snowball into a confidence crisis and form slump.
Please win [-o< Drogba won't walk out of the crowd and lace up the boots surely for one last goal feast :lol:

Looks like we're getting Chelsea at a decent time. Only 2 wins in their last 6 away games and 11 goals conceded in that time.

Yeah that seems right. Barca,Barca,Milan,Bayern,Bayern.

And that was when Milan weren't shit either.

Is it just me or do we draw the singularly worst possible option every year lately in the knockout round?

Barcelona twice, Bayern Munich twice and Milan once (only truly big team in the second pot). But I could be forgetting something.

I didn't get the big deal with the Ozil thing. Yes, it would have been nice of him to go and thank the fans but it's not this great tradition at Arsenal, a lot of the times players just disappear down the tunnel, just like a lot of players at most clubs.

You could always get Mertesacker, Ozil and Poldi to lean on Gotze and see if he'll give up Guardiola's game plan again ;) :-"

I guess one positive way of looking at the draw is that Bayern are probably more upset with drawing us than we are of drawing them.

Lad needs a firecracker up his arse for that one. Props to Per.

has anyone seen the mirrors front page of sunday? you would've thought were 10th and not on top

Fuck it, let's beat the cunts

Well FUCK

One down - chelski got the result they needed in ready for game 2 shall be interesting.

I couldn't believe walcott steered it that well, was a good goal but Fernandinho's goal was class as well.
Sanga's cross for Giroud if in would have been an interesting game.
Mind you citeh lost Aguero early but as you say citeh switched off 3 - 1 up.
The build up for Silva's was great play and great guide into the net.
Come on 4 goal loss would hurt 6 is a hammering no matter who or where your placed.

I wouldn't feel too bad about the loss. Its one of those games where you just have to say "we got outplayed by a better team."

I'd be scared to see what city could do if they put in a 90 min performance though, they had their moments of complacency.

Great response from Mesut. That first comment though is just to good :lol:

Can't deny that fatigue had a huge part to play in that performance. Everton, Napoli away ans City away in the space of 6 days always had the potential to fuck us over, but at least now we've got 9 days to rest and regroup for Chelsea.

A finish Henry would be proud of



Another assist for Aaron too. People blasting Ozil's performance, but again got an assist. The shit with the away fans is simply not on though expect better from any player in our club, let alone our best.

One positive I guess we can take is that we did something no other team has been able to do this season, and that is score 3 goals at the Etihad.

Of course the other big positive being Theo. That finish for the 2nd goal was just delicious. Great to see him back amongst the goals.

Not gonna complain about that handball, I'd have been disgusted if we had that given against us.

Not as upset about that game as I should be, feels weird. Obviously shit to concede 6 and not acceptable, but we can take more out of that game than the United game, which imo was a worse performance.

Surely there was some sort of compensation for all those? How's Toral going? I havent heard anything about him for a while , Wasent he very highly rated at one point?

Clear handball and an onside goal not given which is disappointing, 6-5 sounds a lot better :lol:
