correct me if i am wrong, but im pretty sure frings' effort was offside therefor would have been ruled out even if he scored, no?

no, he wasn't in the offside position. makaay put him through perfectly and he even had a couple of seconds to think what to do with it and he hit it wide. you can also check the highlights that Awax posted in the Bayern Thread.

To Arsenal, of course.

Well, you guessed the score correctly...but it went against us rather than for us.

 

[Eng4WorldCup]

oh... i thought i heard the commentator say he was offside... but anyway, the second i saw that, i felt it was truly over. how did he miss that?

 

[Pizarro14]

i still feel pizarro could of gotten a hat trick

all i know is that he had an assist on pizarro's second. he took a beautiful freekick and pizarro headed it in the back of the net.

good question, i don't know how someone manages to miss that. he had a million options where to place the ball and he hits the outside netting. oh well, we'll have ballack next time, hopefully if he doesnt get injured.

Well....we suck.

But Cygan was good.

Cygan for captain.

Arsenal need to renovate their team. They're definitely lacking a CB next to (or replace if necessary) Campbell in the back. Toure should be playing right back and nowhere else or he'll cause trouble. Also, another Vieira-type player in the middle who can connect when Henry is isolated. Van Bommel is the first name that should pop-up. Especially, considering Arsenal's limited amount of resources to spend. The guy can come over on a Bosman and I'm sure they can handle his (demanding) salary. As for up front, Arsenal was very wrong in letting both Wiltord and Kanu go. They could've used at least one of them. You can't keep forcing van Persie play in the position he plays now--which is next and around Henry--because the guy's a left winger. You need a strong forward, a tall one that could play well with a player like Henry. Jan Vennegoor of Hesselink and Klaas-Jan Huntelaar come to mind. Of course, you also have Quincy who's unimaginably fast but can also be very clumsy with the ball sometimes. If you link Quincy up with someone like Ryan Babel, you've got a unstoppable strikers' duo. Both are good friends and played for years together in the Ajax academy.

Remember they've had Gilberto Silva out injured for some time now.

 

[Bobby]

Yea, Gilberto is a big part of our team, you never notice him, and that's a good thing.

Means he never screws up or gets sent off.

Arash, you could have at least pasted our MSN convo in here and given me a little credit for those ideas.

remember that "We Suck In Europe" Arsenal kit I made? ya, I wasnt lying

 

[sky.]

The thing i've noticed with Arsenal's style is that its very fluid and fast as seen in EPL, but if you cut them off, their players get stunned for a moment and you can hit them on the break easily. I'm thinking its beacuse they got the play in their mind and suddenly it gets cut off and they are caught. Anyone else noticed this?

In fact i thought Bayern were as average as Arse tonight...

Bayern were in the first half and good in the second one when given more space. I wouldn't call Arsenal's performance average, that defense was just as bad as Dortmund's last weekend.

.and why is it that i hear all this big talk about Makaay and every time i watch him he just happens to have a "bad night".....another Mr Average that dont perform when faced with the big occasion?

He doesn't show up when it matters??

He scored the game winning goal against Maccabi, 4 goals against Ajax, 3 against Dortmund, whatever.
