it was an enjoyable match pity we didnt score more. I'm really anxious to see what Wenger would do with Cole and Clichy.

ARSENAL!!!!to the end!!!!

I watched the first 20 minutes and then I was too tired to keep my eyes opened. I read that there was a bad tackle on Diaby?

 

[amphrosyne]

it was horrible. Smith just smashes into him and you could hear Diaby screaming. It's a dislocated and fractured ankle

 

[Bluestar07]

^ No wonder Henry is apparently fuming mad.

 

[amphrosyne]

I found some gifs.. All those tackles on Cesc and Diaby towards the end were out of spite. Stupid Black Cats jealous of us because they're getting relegated and we're going to the Champions League Final. wenger talks.

 

[Bluestar07]

Thanks Amphro!!! You're the best!!!
Bad, bad tackles those.

 

[Senna]

Thanks for posting those amphrosyne! Bad tackles indeed! I hate it when players show their frustration like that, so unnecessary and rude. Poor Diaby..

 

[pazzaperleborse]

[amphrosyne]

^ hey pazza and senna

The clips are actually animated gifs I cant wait another 2 weeks to the Champions League final.

Arsenal may sue over Diaby tackle

Arsenal are considering taking legal action against Sunderland's Dan Smith following his challenge on Gunners midfielder Abou Diaby.

The 19-year-old Frenchman was left with a fractured and dislocated ankle in the wake of the challenge, which rules him out of the Champions League final.
Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger and several of Diaby's team-mates were left fuming following the incident on Monday.
And Wenger said on Wednesday legal proceedings were now being considered.
Shortly after the incident, the Gunners boss said: "It is frustrating and unacceptable because the player had no intention of going for the ball in my opinion."
And now Wenger has suggested that Smith should be banned for the same length of time Diaby is on the sidelines injured.
"I felt, having watched the game, that there were bad intentions there and I will take legal advice to take this game further.
"The player should be banned as long as Abou Diaby does not play. When you see that he gets a yellow card it is just horrendous."

Interesting.. not sure if anything can be done though.

Funny read ...
Who's this Sam, Coleen?

Mix-up ... Rooney thought the time 5am was love rival called Sam
By GARY O’SHEA
WAYNE Rooney hit the roof over a text message on Coleen McLoughlin’s phone — when he mistook the time 5am for the NAME Sam. Fiancée Coleen, 20, revealed yesterday she had to explain to the soccer idol it was WHEN the text was sent.
Jealous Rooney feared a love rival. Coleen said: “He went on, ‘Who’s Sam? Who’s this Sam?”
The beauty told of the mix-up in an interview with fashion mag Marie Claire — as she gave the crocked England striker a boost by posing in a sexy blue dress.
Yesterday Rooney, 20, went back to hospital in Manchester for more checks on his broken right foot — hobbling out MINUS his crutches.
But with the World Cup in just five weeks, the Man U ace looks increasingly likely to miss out.
The Sun exclusively revealed yesterday his injury is worse than feared — with not just one fracture but “several”.
Bookies lengthened the odds on England lifting the cup from 7-1 to 10-1. Brazil are 9-4 favourites.



And the bad news ...

SVEN Goran Eriksson yesterday confirmed our scoop that Wayne Rooney’s broken right foot was worse than first thought.

Asked if he will play in the World Cup the England coach said: “It will require a miracle.”

We revealed in later editions yesterday how a scan had shown a cluster of fractures.

But in a poll, 80 per cent of fans said we can still win. Chris Fuller, of Carshalton, Surrey, said: “Rooney might be out, but we’ve still got one of the best midfields.”

haha bluestar that article about Coleen is hilarious poor Roon imagine first breaking your foot killing your dreams of playing for your country in the WC then finding out your fiancée is cheating on you Oh and English fans have always been kind of optimistic. Their midfield is one of the best on paper but Lampard and Gerrard dont gel together and Sven doesnt seem to like playing a holding midfielder.

Amphro, I can't give karma too. I need to spread reputation around.

I've not had the time to really check but I think the naming of the squads for WC06 is starting. I know Brazil's 1st 11 have been named and poor ol' Gilberto isn't init.
