Kind of OT but watching the Manchester City highlights and Tevez + Aguero should do damage for Argentina. With Messi and Higuain that seems like one of those unstoppable attacks.

If Di Maria ever passes the ball.

They have all the wingers and strikers they can get and yet they play Veron and Riquelme in midfield.

Wasn't aware Di Maria was a ballhog for Argentina. On Madrid it's more likely to see Higuain take every opportunity he gets, not Di Maria.

I know those power rankings are usually a joke but I was surprised to see Argentina drop; it looks like they will have the best attack in the 2014 world cup.

Their midfield is not that good though. They are loaded upfront, but not much to see anywhere else.

Ashley Young dives every game and I must say he's pretty damn good at it. Shame he had to do it against his former club

Almost as bad as Bale. I don't quite have him in Bale's league yet because Young actually waits for/creates some contact, regardless of how slight, whereas Bale hits the deck in a cool breeze.

The way he dragged his leg was a disgrace. He was falling before he even got touched.

Ridiculous game so far. Arsenal dominating, but two crazy minutes and a few great Al Habsi saves see Wigan up 2-1.

Ya, what the hell was that? Huge disappointment today. A win would've basically locked up a 3rd place finish at 8pts ahead of Scum with 4 games left.

we had so many chances in the 10 minutes after the arsenal goal, i was sure they would tie it up.

damn

damn

Some great goals there, but my favourite has to be the Tony Yeboah goal that he scored against Wimbledon in 95' and it's not even on the list.

Perfect team selection from Di Matteo. We are still the underdog against Barca, but I do think that we should be resting everyone today because we won't get a better chance to win CL anytime soon. Only shame is that Terry and Cahill can't get more rest.

Good first half. Left side's been busy but Sturridge hasn't done anything

Post #796 » by **5DOM** » Sat Apr 21, 2012 1:37 pm

Sturridge's been absolutely terrible

Post #797 » by **LittleOzzy** » Sat Apr 21, 2012 3:17 pm

Junior Hoilett really needs to play for Canada...

This. Just finished watching the game on PVR. Not sure what happened to him. Just been dreadful the last couple months.

I don't know what would make me happier as an Arsenal fan...Barcelona not winning anything this year, or Newcastle finishing ahead of Chelsea and Tottenham in the final standings.

I really hope Newcastle don't end up selling any of their players over the summer and Ashely doesn't cheap out after this. They have the perfect blueprint to do well in the premier league with physical players who can play well together.

Tiote, Cisse, Gutierrez, Coloccini and Ba are crucial.
