weren't you as an Arsenal fan disappointed by seeing no reaction from your team after the second goal?PaPaGeorGeo said:The Arsenal players had given everything for 60mins a man down running around covering the space not filled by the extra man, They were stuffed.
Its hard enough to get the ball of a Team like Barca with 11 fit players let alone with 10 stuffed ones. You cannot critise Arsenal for that

I understand they were tired and a man down against Barça, but man on a CL Cup final you just have to give even what you don't have.
I mean there wasn't one single attack or shot by Arsenal until the end, it was like their objective was to avoid suffering more goals.
I'm not exactly criticizing Arsenal, I was just hoping for the players to try a little harder in order to get back to the match. Extra-time would have been great for a neutral you know
yim87 said:yo wtf!
i hate arsenal but what you said was just utter bull**** right out from your ass.
they were a ******* man down lmao. you expect them to leave gaping holes behind? FFS.
sure barca had like twice the amount of possesion arsenal has, but could you even run half as fast as you would now if you lost one of your legs?
arsenal didn't get their 50 (or was it 49) match unbeaten run in the epl by sitting back on their asses btw.
and for the record i prefer supporting barca much more to arsenal.
PaPaGeorGeo said:Have you watched Arsenal in the last 5 years?
i didnt think so. Your basing your opinion on a CL Final where we had 10 players, what we spose to do play 3-3-3? and maybe a CL semi final where we played like crap in the second leg.
Yes we rip teams up on the Counter Attack, do you want us to wait for them to get 10 players behind the ball then see if we can score
Did you hear about the game we were beat Spurs 5-4 or Borough 5-3, they are just two i can name of the top of my head
So very true, and on top of that, the media bias once again was smackingly obvious the next day. "Valiant Arsenal fall at the last" was what the Guardian read. They even called Eboue's dive a "luckily won freekick". Yeah. I dont need to tell anyone it was all rose petals for the brilliance of Barca and scoffs for the cheating Chelsea the day after we lost to themRob said:If they were Chelsea players, the media would be going nuts you know.
nird said:look at the last 15 minutes or so, from barcas first goal. what do arsenal do? nothing. they are incapable of playing offense.
no, the didn't get those 49 games sitting on their asses. however, they do still play a game based on their defense and counter-attacking imo.
a team who, as you say, rip teams on the counter-attack is a defensive team, right? How can it not be?
And I just wanna say that if Henry were to leave Arsenal before next season, the counter-attack play would be severely damaged. Then you would see how well your team would do if they actually had to play their way to a goal (like they had to do, and couldn't, during the last 15 minutes or so of the final).
Offcourse, you can't see the team you love like others do. You would most likely defend any critic they get, so I'm gonna quit wasting my time on this. Goodbye and enjoy the 2nd place...

PaPaGeorGeo said:Its an insult to Wenger and his work at Arsenal to say that we play defensive football. Its not what Wengers Arsenal is about, he aims to win and win with flair.
When Arsenal dominated England all I saw on websites was articles where it appeared the journalist was going through an orgasm as he wrote it.Yossarian said:Ahhh shutup, you whining, soft twat. You guys are the strongest team in England by far, you can't be serious and honestly expect the ill-natured English sports media to massage your ass while you walk over a great majority of the league and make mockery out of the competition, do you? This is what you get for being so successful so quickly. Now I'll admit that the English media is taking a slightly more than normal derisive tone with your club than they did with our reign or that of Manu, but with such an arrogant manager like yours combined with Roman's bottomless pocket, could you honestly say in your heart of hearts that you expected any less?
You and everyone else knows this, with great levels of success comes an even more greater amount of envy, hate and prejudice...........deal with it.
