    Re: AZ Alkamaar vs. Arsenal

    Based on our recent for AZ should be expecting a loss, though we haven't scored as much in the CL as we have in the BPL--possibly because we haven't fielded equally strong teams.

    Bye bye, AZ.

    Overall the game was boring and predictable aside from the atrocious goal Almunia let in.

    Why is Almunia so bad?

    I dunno but we seriously need to look at signing a keeper this January.

    Certainly not because of defense and goalkeeping, though.

    True. Did you see that Nasri goal & feint? Or that Eduardo backpass? Just pure brilliance.

    Yep yep, Nasri brushed off the dust nicely. Eduardo is an amazing finisher, so calm, but has even more to his game than scoring.

    Yeah, I don't think he had a good game against Tottenham, in my opinion. He had two great chances to score.

    I think he was one of the main reasons Wenger was losing it on the sidelines despite being up in that game.
