Chelsea Vs Arsenal | FA Cup Semi Final 18/04/09

Really not a surprising result when we look at our performance today.

Really didn't understand AW's coaching today.

Really don't understand why Fabiansky choose to be a goalkeeper for a living,instead of being a bucher,fisherman,movie star or something else.

Gunners knows what they have to do if they want at least 1 trophy this year...

Why not
-----------------------Fabianski---------------------
Eboue------Toure----------------Silvestre------Gibbs

Walcott------Fabregas--------Song---------Arshavin

---------------van Persie---Adebayor---------------


probably what everyone else was thinking but oh well.
we would have options on the bench; Nasri, Bendtner and then why no Eduardo in the squad?

How is it that everyone on this forum understands that this should have been the lineup and AW doesn't?

Dumbfounded doesn't even begin to describe me right now. I'm going to take a shower to get rid of this filth.

what did AW have to say has anyone seen

[goonerkas]

Fabianski shouldnt be blamed. He was forced inot the team and he is young for a goalkeeper. The blame should lie on the whole team for this one for simply not being good enough.

i need to hit something i'm so pissed

i almost broke my new flat screen tv throwing the remote at it

that would have made a bad day even worse

[bergie4ever]

It's true that everyone screwed the game's up...sad afternoon!!

[Fabrestuta]

Song shouldnt have played. Song is not good at marking players. Denilson's job today was clearly to keep an eye on lampard, like he did against totti. He did it well in the first half but fatigue hindered his efforts second half.

Say thats true, what was the reasoning behind Diaby being on the pitch for 90 minutes? The man is a useless c***. We had a 6 month debate over whether he was a AMF or just a MF when we should have been arguing over who we should off load him to.

The thing is people fabianski was playing the way he was vs villareal cos he had so much confidence and wehn your playing someone like drogba can out muscle the deffence you have the be caustious. You have to rember 80 % of you back 5 werent there so your taliing about a very make shift team.

I would say gibbs was our best player but the team was so poor its hard to pick one out.

[Rockin' Robin]

i actually agree goonerkas. people are being harsh to him really, the commentators made so much more of the first goal, it was right in the corner, and while fabianski was at fault largely to say the least for the second goal, tbh does anyone ever not make a bad decision?

[arseman]

You know all those times Denilson tried to play his way out of defence and got caught out..... it certainly isn't the first time that has happened, I clearly remember him giving the ball away outside our area in the buildup to Dogbreaths winner in the Carling Cup final a couple f years ago...

I feel sorry for Fabianski, his error may have gifted them the goal, but the match was lost in midfield......Diaby is a talented player, but his attitude absolutely stinks, and the sad thing is that both him and Denilson will be in contention when we play Manure in the Champions League. That's the problem, Arsene spoke about how sigining Barry or Alonso would kill these players....actually maybe they could do with some killing, because right now, they put in these abominal performances and still be 80% sure of starting the next game....

Good thing I didn't get to watch that shack of shit.

You may have a point, i didnt see the game, but what i dont understand is where did Diaby play. was he next to Denilson like LDM and RDM, was he on the left of a 4 man midfeild or was he played behind Ade with Van Persie on the left?

I did say that Denilson could be played but my personal choice was Song

Happy f***ing birthday Fabianksi you ****.

Just thought id say this made me smile

Diaby is more physically capable than nasri or arshavin thats why he played.

[liam_cork]

no ones mentioned that walcott completly faded out of the game

Maybe but all he did with that strength was commit stupid fouls...
