"Another trophy for Arsenal"

I posted about this at the end of last season, but just as a reminder...

For once I'll be watching the hour of Sky's coverage before the game tomorrow.

Temperament suspect? Lehmann's got a bloody knife in his hands standing over the dead body, it's a well known fact he's a hothead :-D

Obviously you'll know better than me seeing as you see him every week but each game i've seen him in he's looked a little lost out there and flapping more then David James

His kicking can be suspect, as can his temperament... but fortunately his abilities in other areas more than make up for it. He's one of the best shot-stoppers in the Prem.

Barthez, on the other hand... well, let's face it... even Fergie saw it in the end! :-)

May I add NONE of the goals today was his fault 2 of them were blasted past him and the third he didn't know he was going to go for a shot..

He was hardly under a constant barrage of pressure though was he? I've seen many times where he has looked very dodgy only for the defence to bail him out. His kicking isn't too crisp either which many of you Arsenal fans delighted in pointing out to us United fans with Barthez :-D

As a midfielder, at 28 he's got a good 4 to 6 years left in him yet!

Yes, we need another central guy, and a right-back.

Ahem. Lehmann received the Golden Glove award today for the most clean sheets in the Prem last season. If that's dodgy keeping, long may it continue!

Yes he weren't brilliant last season.

Think you may regret turning down the offer actually. Not got too many years left at the top and for 25 million could have got at least 2 good players, maybe a central defender to go alongside Sol and a decent keeper. But then that'd take away from the spirit of Arsenal who always have to have a dodgy keeper between the sticks :-D

Again?

I thought he had a very good game against Everton.

He needs his red stripe back, that's what it is.

Well... not really.

Usually it's all just press talk, but this year there was actually some substance to it.

Also want to say Freddie was crap AGAIN hope he gives Pennant a start on Wednesday.
