Arsenal moved to Adidas? That looks nice by the way, the crest on the center of the shirt looks kind of cool.

Yeah, it's one of the new deals we made that's supposed to drastically increase our revenue. We apparently made 13 Mil pound a season with Nike, and this is more than double that with Adidas.

It looks like more of an AC MILAN jersey than Arsenal.

I don't really think so. "Fly Emirates" is about the only thing on there that resembles something on an AC Milan jersey...and they've been sponsoring us longer.

A white Adidas jersey?

I think the triple shoulder striping is on quite a few of the Adidas jerseys (like Chelsea's with their color scheme). The only similarity that I see is just the "Fly Emirates" logo, which is more closely identified with Arsenal than any other major club due to the length of the sponsorship and the naming rights for our stadium.

Blamed Wenger for Ches having a sub-par season. What is it with footballers Dad's saying stupid things to the media? Bendtners dad used to do it all the time too, claiming he was world class and a bunch of other garbage.

Looks like the Emirates cup this year is going to include Real Madrid, Juventus, and Galatasaray. I look forward to chanting "I've only come to see Eboue!" during Madrid/Galatasaray at the Emirates.

Didn't realize we have a game in hand on Spurs, that's a nice bonus.

Looks like Walcott is out for three weeks, not too bad, gives us a reason to drop him for Chamberlain. Hopefully he can come back and get into some better form.

NextGen quarter-final on Monday, actually looking forward to it.

*Insert comment about how both of them are just auditioning to play for Barca*

Seriously though, with this much talent in the youth ranks, it baffles me why we don't spend all of our transfer $$$ on a few really good players, rather than on a bunch of mediocre players, and then promote the best players from the youth squads.

Damn, good move, Ebecilio should've been there to finish.

Beautiful play by Gnabry, nice goal.

MaliBrah · Post #1379 » by **MaliBrah** » Mon Mar 25, 2013 8:22 pm

gnabry!!

He's really come on in the second half. Akpom looking threatening as well.
