J'ai vu tout ça en direct.
Elle était complètement à l'ouest depuis le début. Ca se voyait qu'elle ne connaissait strictement rien au football.

celle làç aussi est pas mal

Les toffies révisent leur français avant l'arrivée de St Etienne

arf, on en parle déjà dans le topic L1.

Il est en alternance: 3 semaines en entreprise, 1 semaine à l'infirmerie  

Par contre on est sur le topic L1

Quelle blessure? Il était juste fatigué non?

[Gunner du mois d'Aout]

C'est reparti pour une saison ....
[large]Gunner du mois d'Aout[/large]
(On ne compte pas les matchs de pré-saison)

Best Gunner: Gallas, pour moi c'est évident. Il a marqué 3 but, a été excellent défensivement dans son partenariat avec Vermaelen. Avec un état d'esprit exemplaire.

Best Young Gun: Ramsey, il a marqué son premier but en Premier League contre Tottenham. Il est rentré en jeu contre United. C'est pas non plus un mois d'Aout exceptionel mais il s'affirme de plus en plus.

Pire Gunner: Almunia parce qu'il est fautif sur le but contre Pompey et contre United (penalty). Sinon van Persi n'a pas été en réussite depuis le début de la saison et Arshavin avait l'air de continuer ses vacances pendant le mois d'Aout.

t'as canal Wassim?

lol comment on dérive

on a bien fait de le virer cet adébayor, il est nul

Je te dis pas si il nous colle un doublé, je vais bien rigoler

Et si Bendtner marque tu va pleurer?
Dès fois on se demande quel Club tu supporte

Très bon article d'un fan de L'pool

Mais personne ne fait exprès de faire une erreur, mais ça reste une erreur.
C'est pas la faute à pas de chance sur cette action, le ballon arrive vers lui, personne ne le gène, il doit la dégager. Il met un csc, il est coupable. Ca n'enlève rien a ses qualités, mais sur ce match il a été coupable d'une erreur qui nous coute 1 but.

Ensuite Diaby n'a réussit qu'une fois a perforé la défense, et il manque sa frappe. Mais le reste du temps il a fait les mauvais choix. Jouer simple c'est une qualité, sur ce match il en a été incapable.

C'est Diaby qui remplace Cesc pas Denilson!
Celui qui met le but du 2-1 et qui a perdu presque tout les ballons qu'il avait dans les pieds. Désolé mais il est complètement passé à côté de son match.

Parce qu'il a récupéré des ballons et qu'il n'en a pas perdu beaucoup.
Il est dans la continuité, franchement c'est absurde de s'acharner sur Denilson après ce match là alors qu'il n'est pas du tout coupable sur les buts que l'on prends.

Je suis désolé, mais c'est plus crédible que de dire que Diaby à fait un meilleur match de Denilson
Diaby est passé à côté de son match, c'est pas de la faute de Denilson qui a fait un bon match quoi que t'en dise.

Je suis peut-être excessif mais moins que tes posts
Je suis désolé mais il a fait un bon match, et je suis pas le seul à le penser:

http://www.skysports.com/football/match_facts/0,19762,11065_3149367,00.html

Désolé Dios mais il a perdu un nombre incalculable de ballon.
Il a fait de superbes gestes, mais les plus simples sont les plus compliqués pour lui, c'est frustrant.

A l'allure où ça se passe tu peux pas lui dire quoi que ce soit.
Il assez grand pour savoir que lorsquun ballon arrive sur lui sur un coup de pied arrêté il doit la dégager.

passeur décisif ce soir

Erreur fatale. Elle nous fait perdre le match.

Arsenal rencontrera West Brom au premier tour de la Carling Cup

[Bendtner: I'm in good Nik]

Excellente interview du grand danois pour The Sun

[img align=G]http://img.thesun.co.uk/multimedia/archive/00877/Nicklas_Bendtner_28_877466a.jpg[/img][large]Bendtner: I'm in good Nik[/large]

IT'S been quite a career already and Arsenal's Nicklas Bendtner is still only 21.
We have had the pink boots and paparazzi snaps of him being carried out of Mayfair nightclub Boujis with his trousers at half-mast.
Then there was the infamous incident at White Hart Lane where he ended with a bloodied nose after an alleged head-butt from former team-mate Emmanuel Adebayor.
Get the picture? Well, if you do, you've got the wrong one.
Because the 6ft 3in Dane is as personable, plausible and intelligent a young footballer as they come.
And he can even have a good laugh at himself.

Suggest the reason why a player once dubbed 'the ox in the box' changed his Arsenal shirt number from 26 to 52 was because it was a closer match to the chances he required to score and he says: \"Very good - I like it.\"

Or, maybe, because it's the reverse of the 25 formerly worn by his great mate Adebayor?
\"It's certainly nothing to do with that,\" he says, ho-ho-ing. \"I would never wear that number.\"

The pounds-per-week of his new contract, perhaps? The fact he will be twice the player next season?
\"Now that's not bad,\" he says. \"After looking at the videos, I reckon I should have scored 25 goals last season not 15. I missed four in one game at Burnley alone.\"

In the end, it's more prosaic. His favourite number is seven, that's already taken by Tomas Rosicky, five plus two equals seven - and, to him, 52 looks far more powerful than four plus three (43).

But back to Adebayor, a player perceived by many Arsenal fans as a Big-Time Charlie and malign dressing-room influence.
And the man who totally over-reacted at Spurs during Arsenal's 5-1 Carling Cup thrashing in January 2008.
What went on? Bendtner said: \"He came on as sub, I didn't pass to him and he got annoyed. Then we had a disagreement. Then we went to the near post and what happened just happened.\"
It was claimed Adebayor said: \"I only came on because you're s***.\"
Bendtner smiled: \"If he did, I didn't hear it.

\"My view now is if I don't have anything positive to say about someone, it's best I say nothing.\"Did I get on with him? We played in the same team. Outside that we just tried to make it work. We didn't exactly go to the pub together. When did we last speak? I can't remember.\"

So he should be delighted Adebayor has gone. Instead, he claims it would have been far more satisfying had the big Togan stayed - and he had proved good enough to take his place.
Bendtner said: \"For sure. Because I love high-level competition and feel the more people you have to challenge for your place the sweeter it is when you take it from them.
\"I have always been a fighter and that's the way I like it.
\"I thought it was an equal battle with Adebayor.
\"The frustrating thing was I could play well and lose my place - on the basis of his goals the previous season.
\"I wanted to show I could do the same.\"

The pair will meet again at Eastlands on September 12. First, though, is the appointment at Old Trafford this evening where the Gunners will try and erase the memory of their 3-1 Champions League hammering by Manchester United at The Emirates.
Bendtner said: \"No one would have predicted that result in a million years.
\"I thought it would be tight - then came Kieran Gibbs's slip. It was miserable and saddening because he had played so fantastically whenever he had filled in for Gael Clichy.
\"We then pushed forward and they took full advantage.
\"Now there is an immense desire to give something back to the fans, to show something really special is being built here this season, that it's no flash in the pan.
\"That what we have worked on in pre-season DOES work even against the big teams.
\"There is no place like Old Trafford to show you can be rewarded for playing football the right way.\"

After the Champions League defeat, the Dane would go on to make his spectacular exit from Boujis.
He admitted: \"It was a mistake and I had to take it on the chin.
\"I saw the boss, explained what had happened, he fined me and we got on with it. I have learned my lesson. I remember waking up in the morning to several messages. I rang my best friend in Denmark... I recalled there had been some pictures taken... of course, he was laughing... so did I in retrospect.
\"My team-mates? At first they were disappointed I had actually gone out so late but they also saw the funny side.
\"This time, though, no Boujis.\"

And then, of course, those boots - the pink ones (since donated to a children's charity) proving an instant hit on their first outing, Bendtner scoring the winner against Dinamo Kiev that took Arsenal through to the Champions League knockout stage last season.
It earned him the nickname 'The Pantomime Dane'. It could have been worse - The Wuss in Boots, perhaps. He said: \"I just love coloured boots. When I was nine I had some lime green ones and it just snowballed from there. I have had every colour except purple. But when I find them...\"

It takes a confident man to wear this sort of thing but then, as Birmingham MD Karren Brady, once said: \"Nicklas was never short on self belief. When he was on loan he remarked he should have been playing in the Arsenal team ahead of Thierry Henry.\"
Blowing out his cheeks and almost falling off his chair, he protested: \"I can't recall that! Now that WOULD have been a big statement!\"

Along the same lines, he has sought newspaper corrections following quotes that have come back a little mangled from Denmark. He said: \"For people to think I said I should be in the team was bad, it made me look a big-head. Your team-mates think 'what's going on here?' \"

Now he believes he is winning over the fans after a spell in which even he admitted he was performing 'like a Sunday League player'.
He said: \"It has taken some time. I am happy with my game though the last part - putting the ball in the net - is not flawless and never will be.
\"But I think I have gone through my Sunday League stage. It will never happen again.\"

Now that IS a big statement.

Je vous traduit la vérité sur le numéro 52 pour ceux qui n'ont pas compris
Son numéro favoris est le 7 (porté par Rosicky), 5+2=7 .. et pour lui 52 est plus puissant que 43 (parce que 4+3=7 aussi ).

Il a meme tenté le coup de boule sur Srna

Je propose 3 match de suspension?

Le passage en gras, quand il dit qu' avant après perte de balle ils ne revenaient pas forcément rapidement en défense ... on s' en était rendu compte contre Tottenham, il rentre pour garder le résultat et monsieur se pavane à 50 mètres de nos buts en revenant en trottinant ... je l' ai encore en travers de la gorge !!!

Moi aussi, j'ai revu ça récemment, c'est juste intolérable ce qu'il a fait. Ou plutôt ce qu'il n'a pas fait. :grrrrr:
Mais il à l'air d'avoir compris la leçon.

[Arsenal's Alex Song finds his rhythm under Arsene Wenger's beat]

Article très intéressant du Telegraph

[large]Arsenal's Alex Song finds his rhythm under Arsene Wenger's beat[/large]
The Arsenal motivational team-talk for Saturday afternoon's match against Manchester United has already been provided.


To be precise, it was delivered at about 10pm on the evening of May 5, shortly after United sealed their place in the Champions League final with a 3-1 win at the Emirates.

It was Patrice Evra doing the talking. \"We were 11 men,\" he declared, \"and they were 11 children.\" It was a withering low blow - and one which has been quietly absorbed within the Arsenal dressing-room.

Indeed, during an hour spent in the company this week of Alex Song, his laid-back and humble approach to an extraordinary life was briefly punctuated only when the subject turned to United's outspoken left-back.

\"We will never forget that,\" Song said. \"It was very difficult to lose the game but, when you wake up in the morning, you see the newspaper and you see someone saying they played against 11 kids.

\"That, for me, is not respect. You cannot say that. Barcelona won everything last year and they didn't say things like that. When we go there, everyone wants to show him we are not kids. We will see, but we are confident.\"

That confidence is largely derived from a start to the season that has seen Arsenal score 15 times in four straight wins. For Song, the improvement relates to what Arsenal have been doing without the ball rather than with it. Like Barcelona, pressing has become as important as passing.

\"We are different to the team that played in May,\" he said. \"We know last year we missed something. When we lost the ball, we didn't maybe turn quickly enough to close down.

\"This year everyone, attackers, defenders and midfielders, when we lose the ball we want the ball back. And we still know that when we have the ball we can play. We love having the ball.\"

The pivotal figure in this subtle change has been Song, an emerging force in that elusive 'holding' role and someone whose name will surely be among the first on Arsène Wenger's team-sheet on Saturday.

Song calls himself the \"first defender in midfield\" and clearly has a considerable appetite for self-improvement.

When Paris St Germain were among the visitors to Arsenal for the pre-season Emirates Cup, Song specifically studied their matches against Rangers and Atletico Madrid.

\"I watched Claude Makelele very carefully. He is very intelligent, always in the right position. A great player. I saw some things that I try to do the same.\"

Wenger says that the development of Song has been a \"positive surprise\" but reward for the four years he has spent nurturing his talent.

\"He's an intelligent player who smells where to be on the pitch, which is the main quality of a midfielder,\" Wenger said. \"Opinions are turning. He had to swim a little bit against the stream.\"

That Song should flourish \"against the stream\" is unsurprising. Indeed, having lost his father at the age of three while growing up in Douala, Cameroon's largest city, his life has been underpinned by achievement against the odds. \"I didn't know my father,\" he said, \"but I have a big family. My dad had five girls - I think you call it polygamy!

\"I have seven brothers and 17 sisters. We are all very close. Some are now in Cameroon, some in Paris and some here. I just say 'thank-you God' because if I can help my brothers and sisters that is great.\"

Song is also married with two young boys. \"I know it's important for a boy to have his father. When I was young it was difficult. I'd seen my friends being picked up by their dads. My career means I have the chance to give those kids everything.\"

Having previously played football only on the streets, Song's life changed at the age of eight when his uncle paid for him to join his mother, Cathrine, in Les Lilas, a densely populated suburb of Paris.

He did not attend his first organised training session until the age of 12 but, when his family moved to a larger home opposite the stadium of Red Star Saint Ouen, a club formed by Jules Rimet, the path to professional football had been laid.

Song was to shine in a pre-season match against Parma and was approached by the manager of Bastia, a Corsican club then in Division One of the French League.

\"When I was 14 I didn't think about being a professional player, I just liked playing,\" he said. \"But, when I watched the professionals play, I thought, 'maybe I can do this job'.\"

At Bastia, he also met Francois Ciccolini, a coach who, with Wenger, has come to fill the paternal void in his life. \"Francois is like my dad, he gave me everything,\" Song said. \"I missed him but, when I came to Arsenal, I found another one. The manager here is so close to the players.

\"They told me that the boss [Wenger] had watched all the games that I played for Bastia. He is very attentive. Now I'm not the same as when I was 17. I have improved a lot, mentally as well. I just say to the boss 'thank-you'. He believes and I want to prove he is not wrong.\"

It has been some journey. And, after listening to it, the greatest wonder is that Song is still only 21. Even Evra might accept that this boy is now a man.

[Wenger pour un arbitrage vidéo]

[large]Wenger pour un arbitrage vidéo[/large]

\"Je pense que l'on doit se battre contre les plongeons.
La meilleur façon de le faire c'est la preuve vidéo, quand on prends une décision.
L'arbitre pourrait tout de suite dire 'penalty ou non'. Si on lui dit non, il continue, ou oui, on joue le penalty.

Les arbitres ont besoin d'aide. Combien de temps je devrai continuer à dire que je suis pour la technologie vidéo? L'Uefa refuse la technologie vidéo mais là ils viennent de l'utiliser pour juger notre joueur. Où est la logique? C'est quelque chose de plutôt surprenant.\"

a quand sa selection avec le bresil???quand je vois que l autre nul de liverpool y est.....

Je discutais avec un brésilien et pour lui c'est un scandale qu'il ne soit pas sélectionné. Le problème c'est que Dunga prèfère des milieux plus bourrins style Melo, ou Lucas, mais Denilson à largement sa place. C'est un joueur qui a une très grosse côte au Brésil.
