Senegal's Arsenal thread 2005/6 - A redcurranty farewell to the Home of Footballâ„¢

[Rizzudo]

My dad had a Ford Cortina 1600E once, sold it though

[goon]

Speaking of which, the stadium is really starting to look good.

Latest Pics

and the strong rumour of who the first opponents for the sell out game will be is Rangers.

Which guarantees a sell out which is what the club want, but also guarantees the stadium will be half full of drunk scotsmen plssing everywhere bar the toilets.

[Ollie C]

I'm starting to get nervous about Wednesday already

Fingers crossed on Eboue and Cesc. I do think we'll cope better without Cesc than without Eboue, the back four are all playing so well at the moment we really don't want to break it up especially when there are question marks over the players who would come in. Plus I think Diaby has shown enough potential to suggest he could cope if he has to come in.

Also good to see Edu finally made his debut for Valencia, hopefully he'll do well if he can stay fit.

[goon]

Gilbert playing for reserves tonight.

[ajw10]

Gilbert or Djourou at right back tbh. Having Senderos and Sol at centre back doesnt bear thinking about.

[Stuart Warren]

Would that be as a result of the "Friends from the North" programme piece that was written a couple of weeks ago?

Rangers v Arsenal used to be an annual tradition - time it was brought back.

[Ratinho]

My 'chill winston' on the injuries, noted HOVI?

For everyone to enjoy.

[Cesc Fabregas the Phenom]

Two goals from long balls, 2 assists and a goal from Ade.

Lovely stuff

[Olly Kenney]

The reserves drew 2-2 tonight, Larsson and Muamba got the goals. Looks likes Gilbert got another 90 minutes under his belt as well.

[Mikey G]

I wanted to say last night after watching that, that Ade seems to be gelling really well with Henry.

Good times to come

[Father Senegal]

liked this in the guardian this morning

Basically saying everyone loves us and hates Chelsea, cant put it any better than arseblogger does 'a bit like asking someone if they want a ham sandwich or a poo sandwich'

[Bouncerboy13]

Awesome

[Shawn Michaels]

That is unreal!

[Asmodeus]

He is too good.

[Father Senegal]

haha thats like one of those snooker shots where the ball is over the pocket and you have to screw the cue ball round another one that is right in front.

I love him

[Orzelek]

so

[Shawn Michaels]

I'm not too bad today - the news about Fabregas & Eboue seems positive.

I've come into work today to take my mind off it - but as it's the Easter Holidays I have the rest of the next fortnight off - so tomorrow I'll have loads of time to think about it - I will literally be shaking from about 4pm in anticipation!

Imagine what we'll be like if we get through!

[Asmodeus]

I'm in the excited period about now. Forever checking different sites for news and soundbites.

However, this time tomorrow morning I will be shaking like a dog sh!tting a bottle.

[Asmodeus]

If we get through tomorrow I will really start to believe.

<BLOCKQUOTE class="ip-ubbcode-quote"><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-title">quote:</div><div class="ip-ubbcode-quote-content">Arsenal are being tipped to make a fresh move on the French market with Rennes forward Yoann Gourcuff the latest bright young thing to come under Arsene Wenger's gaze.

The Gunners have former star Gilles Grimandi scouring Le Championnat and its lower leagues for burgeoning talent and he has now spotted Gourcuff.

Grimandi, who played a major role in Arsenal's swoop for Abou Diaby from Auxerre in January, is understood to be taking a keen interest in French Under-21 ace and he watched him in action against Toulouse at the weekend.

The right-sided 19-year-old is already attracting attention from Ligue 1 giants Monaco and has even been shown around the facilities at the Stade Louis II, while Milan and Juventus have also been alerted to his progress.

The rival interest, though, is unlikely to deter Wenger who is the master at raiding his homeland - with Emmanuel Adebayor another arrival from across The Channel at the beginning of the year.

Gourcuff has come through the youth ranks at The Stade de la Route-de-Lorient and made his first team bow in 2004.

His major breakthrough has come this season as has started 24 games and bagged six goals. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Not the first time we've been linked with this guy.

[H.O.V.I]

do we really need this guy with walcott basically in the same position coming through

[Asmodeus]

Perhaps Arsene plans to mould him into a world-class goalkeeper or something.

That is amazing.

I'm far too nervous already and can't stop thinking that we are going to let in an early goal and get walloped for some reason. I don't like it.

[Ollie C]

I'm stupidly nervous considering the game is over 24 hours away. :-\

Always happens to me with big games I start off confident and the closer the game gets the more nervous I get. At this rate I'll be a jibbering wreck by kickoff.

[Asmodeus]

Exactly what I said earlier. Nervous already.

[H.O.V.I]

**************spoliers****************

Bolton are losing 1-0

[Mikey G]

I'm ****ing myself. Wasting away my life wanting this to come.

I want us to score loads so I can relax, but at the same time I want to have a nervous time so it's really rememberable.

[H.O.V.I]

bolton beaten \o/

[Ratinho]

No Vieira tomorrow.

Then, if we get through, no Viera! \o/

[Father Senegal]

haha what an awesome set of results in the last few days.

[Springbok256]
