Players Who Played Poorly on Sunday Talking About Match
By: Martin |

This probably doesn’t even really deserve its own post, but it’s a pet peeve of mine, so I’m going on a mini-rant about it. In the wake of Sunday’s defeat to Chelsea, several players have spoken to the press about it. While I don’t actually find anything they said objectionable, for some reason I find it supremely irritating when the players who are doing all the talking are the players who didn’t contribute much of anything during the match itself.

Well, that was tough to watch. I actually didn’t think we played all that terribly — we had the majority of possession, we were moving forward, and we didn’t have quite as many giveaways or defensive lapses as we did against Manchester United last weekend. But Chelsea did what they do best. Their backline was disciplined and well-organized all match long, and despite kicking it around Chelsea’s area for much of the match, we couldn’t find a way through. We did have a couple of very good chances, but they were all stopped by Cech, who was commanding all match long. So that’s pretty much it for Arsenal’s title chances — making up 9 points in 13 matches is a bit too much to ask. Read the rest of this entry »

Hey, I understand. You’re feeling a little down. It’s the middle of the week, and if you’re up by me, it’s cold and snowy. Arsenal got taken behind the woodshed by Manchester United on Sunday, and our title hopes are most definitely on life support.

Arsenal’s All-Decade Team: Strikers
By: Martin | 13 Comments
Remember when this feature was going to be done by 12/31? Yeah, me neither. But this is the last installment. In the last installment, I asked you to pick the two center midfielders, and I have to say I’m somewhat surprised to say that Cesc Fabregas was our leading vote-getter, with 92% of you voting for him (I say surprised that he’s ahead of Vieira, certainly not surprised that he’s on the team). Patrick Vieira also made the starting squad, with 88% of the vote. After those two, there was a steep drop-off to Gilberto (6%), Ray Parlour (6%), Alex Song (4%), Abou Diaby (2%), and Matheiu Flamini (1%). Edu has the ignonimy of being our first candidate to win the coveted golden doughnut, by getting 0 votes. Today’s vote: Strikers. Read the rest of this entry »
