I think Bendtner was quality tonight, and I think he should get the praise for it, and to be honest, seeing that "newspaper report" really annoyed me because I know it's just the media identifying our current "scapegoat" and playing on it
Agree with that 100%.
Bendy was quality tonight, scored one, set up the fourth goal, worked hard etc. etc.
Missed a sitter but Ade does it all the time so what the hell?
Yes the media totally wank out on identifying our scapegoat. They had a field day when Eboue was booed and they didn't stop talking about it for weeks.
What really f***ing irritated me though was the fact that those twunt Setanta commentators just took the Mirror story as complete gospel.
Soon as Bendtner missed that sitter one of them said "Well this is the man who came out in the papers today and said he should be starting every game - not with performances like that he won't!"
They didn't say "This is the player who 'allegedly' said or this is the player who 'was reported to have said' they just took it as gospel.
Monkey see monkey do - it's in black and white and therefore it's true.
These people are FORTY years old for f**k's sake and they don't know better!
Seriously!!
And if that wasn't bad enough the f***ing c**ts in the studio actually watched Bendtner's interview in which he clearly stated that it was all tabloid shite and then said it again!!!
They actually watched him rubbish it and then said "bearing in mind his quotes in the paper he should play better blah blah"
HE'S JUST f***ing TOLD YOU IT WAS RUBBISH!! WHERE WERE YOU?? IN MAKE UP??

What did he actually say?
I think it's a case of Arsenal scapegoat syndrome a lot of the time. We as fans seem to need a player to point our bad vibes at.
It used to be Lehmann, then it was Eboue, Adebeyor has had a turn, and Bendtner is making a seat on the board his own.
Cut the guy some slack, he's an Arsenal player
I couldnt care less that he's an Arsenal player. All those players, with the exception of Ade, absolutely deserved to get a load of stick. Eboue is the worst player to wear an Arsenal shirt since Cygan. He is a poor player. What am I supposed to say? Oh, he's alright, even though he is often a liability? Get real!
I'm going to start underlying the part where I make my point I think
People jump on him whether he's had a bad game or not, look at the thread you are in. A thread about a game where he scored and generally played well, and why?
Because some idiot journalist printed a story to destabilise the team.
Well done Mr journo, looks like you were partially successful

I wasnt even talking about the newspaper report in that post. I was talking about Eboue mainly.
and I can do the eyes as well

I'm not going to slag them off but I will bring up faults, as with any other player. But surely you must see they are the weak ones in the squad.
Agreed, with the exception of Lehmann, who was immense (unbeaten run anyone?)
It just seems to me that with these players, when they have a bad game, they're publicly crucified, but they don't get any recognition when they have a good game.
I think Bendtner was quality tonight, and I think he should get the praise for it, and to be honest, seeing that "newspaper report" really annoyed me because I know it's just the media identifying our current "scapegoat" and playing on it
Now you see I completely agree about them getting recognition for good games. Especially Bendtner. But personally the reason I don't as much is because I'm sick of seeing "oh where's all the Bendy haters now" etc etc when he scores or has a good game. Things like that make me not want to post positive things as it seems hypocritical when it shouldn't be. The first thing I think of is well it's only one goal, or 20 mins of a game instead of saying positive things.
Did that make sense? lol

Makes complete sense, thats exactly how I feel sometimes. I think I'm to the point now where I'd rather get rid of Ade instead of Bendtner, Nick has proved he's valuable, and at least he seems up for it, Ade is just going thru the motions.

I've been thinking exactly the same thing.
At least Bendtner seems to want to play, and we already know he plays well alongside Eduardo, as he proved last season.
