It's just what I "feel." I don't get good "vibes" from Vermaelen. Yesterday, the moment I saw him with the captain's band, I knew something wouldn't be right.
Also, you're conveniently ignoring that Arteta is undefeated in the League as Arsenal captain. I never talked about the CL. I've always spoken about our undefeated run with Arteta as our captain.
Get off it... It's what I feel and I don't need to have scientific facts to back it of. Also, there is a thing called "luck." Ask Chelsea fans and they'd tell you about it.
Right, okay - so just because you feel something in your ovaries, there's validity in it? If we're going to have a debate about this that's a complete bullshit argument. The fact that you had bad "vibes" from Vermaelen means f**k all, and the fact you're resorting to such flimsy points shows how little you can back up your argument.
Also, why the hell does it matter if it's a Premier League or a Champions League game? You just ignored one so it wouldn't mess up your crackpot argument.
Vermaelen shouts and talks and leads, just like Arteta. There is absolutely no evidence that Arteta or us as a team play better when he is wearing the armband so don't try and make out it's the case because of a "feeling" you have.
Justify our undefeated run with Arteta as captain.
Just bloody shut up if you can't go on without labeling. We lost with Vermaelen as captain. Vermaelen isn't a first team player anymore. And he's the Club captain! The only reason is because Wenger doesn't want to hurt his confidence even more.
Was I even arguing? That's the thing. I wasn't arguing with you or anybody. For somebody who loves stats, we are undefeated in the League under him. That's a STAT. And try arguing against that.
It matters because (that it's the PL and CL) because those are two different ball games and why even both giving the PL Golden Boot at the end of the season if it doesn't matter whether it's the League or the CL. Why bother counting league goals only--let's just count 'em all. Oh jeez, I understand you want to argue because you believe I have a "poor" case, but don't just argue for the sake of it. There is nothing to come out of it.
As long as we don't lose under Arteta, it is a stat. A stat that is important. Why does it matter if we went undefeated in the League too, right? Why does it matter when it's just the League?
If you want to accept it, I have been shouting that we're undefeated in the League with Arteta as captain. I never ignored it but if you're going to become mind-reader or are going to make up stuff, there is no point here. Just piss off.
And yeah, there is no evidence that we play better as a team under Arteta--except that we haven't lost a League game under him! Evidence much? Go cry really. You're just arguing for heck's sake. A stat is a stat and stat don't lie.
