Arsenal

[Rocafella]

Sanogo starts!

[JamesTW]

Arsène Wenger's debut hiphop album, coming soon:

looks like a Sith Lord

[The Fox]

Oh wow, that team is horrible

Arteta and Flamini against intense pressing! Jenkinson! Sanogo! Ozil being run into the ground! Oh god!

[pinholestar]

Oh Arsène, I hope you know what you're doing with that team selection but it looks like trouble to me.

[The Fox]

Can't wait for groundhog day: easy draw in the next round but a humping today, and again on Wednesday with a full strength side.

edit: Everton at home. Well there's a first time for everything, hopefully their press will be less intense without Henderson. Fingers crossed.

Pattern of this game seems familiar so far

Assarsene's Creed.

[Gotters]

Good first half that - horrible start then we started to shut them down a bit, Ox looking sharp and Sanogo far from the disaster many of us expected him to be

Still not sure we can keep that frontline out for the 2nd half but think we got more goals in us too

[pinholestar]

Pleasantly surprised with that; we look quite good. The Flamini/Arteta axis of crapness is actually functioning quite well in terms of nullifying them in the middle, but we still look quite vulnerable when they break with pace on the wings.

Arsarsene's Creed.

[toythatkills]

Yeah, well familiar, this

[pinholestar]

THAT'S what we've been wanting to see. Pace in behind & Poldi finishing a flowing attacking move. Beautiful.

[wev]

I know Podolski shouldn't have hooked his foot round but Suarez was stationary when he did and wouldn't normally fall over if he wasn't a football player

[Timmo]

Hahaha, how is that not another pen?

[SaintM]

The boy who cried wolf, innit.

When did Football stop being a contact sport? Suarez doing his best fish out of water impression

[The Fox]

Oh wow, that team is horrible

Arteta and Flamini against intense pressing! Jenkinson! Sanogo! Ozil being run into the ground! Oh god!

Whatever happens in the last few mins, never happier to be proven totally wrong. I was worried Sanogo would be rusty as hell but he's done well.

[Shoes]

I want a Giroud goal, and a 'he shags when he wants' chant.

[The Fox]

Get in! Well done lads, bit worried about the amount Ozil is playing though.

[Mars]

Chuffed

[Ninja Doctor]

As an Evertonian, see you in a few weeks lids.

Are you having me on?

[wev]

Not at all, see the Football Thread, I've made my opinion clear

[Stig]

And it's a ridiculous opinion, as it's a clear as day penalty. Everyone but you seems to think so.

He runs into Suarez with his foot out for the ball. He doesn't get the ball, it's a foul.

[BlinkyBear]

FUCKING YES

[Takizawa]

Not at all, see the Football Thread, I've made my opinion clear

Your opinion that doesn't seem to understand what constitutes a foul in football

Anyway, well done Arsenal, really great game of football. Good luck in the next round (you fuckers).

[The Fox]

Tell you what though, definite penalty with Ox on Suarez, but Gerrard should have walked too. Webb was a joke.

[dogsout]

He's posting about it in the football thread so let's continue it in there rather than sully their thread because of one idiot, please.

Enjoy your win, gooners.

[gizmo1990]

That was never a penalty, comedy falling over from Suarez. However the challenge on him later was, so I guess it evened itself out!
