No, I didn't see what you say Drogba did.


Drogba didnt dive this time he just seemed to give up on the play and instead of tracking back he just fell into a pile on the floor with his head in his hands

Lord God Jose Mourinho wrote:I don't think that is the mentality of the Premier League. It's the mentality of Arsenal FC and Arsenal FC alone.

Probably, to elaborate though there's the top 4 (or 3+1 as it seems to be becoming), maybe Villa, Everton, Spurs and Man City who are delighted to make the UEFA Cup (then sack it off) while the rest of the league just seem to be happy to stay up.

I don't have the inside track on the finances at Arsenal, maybe they haven't got the money to spend to build a squad to challenge more, but I can't see this current status quo changing for a while, however many millions Man City might try and spend to change it.

Steve Bruce practically admitted that Wigan sacked the season off once it became obvious they had stayed and it seems half the clubs in the league are happy with that and that alone.

Arsenal wont be anywhere near the title until they get a experienced Centre Back and a top class holding midfielder

Typo. Is Michel Turner French?

I'm glad you have filled your afternoon constructively.

Didn't William Webb Ellis pick up the ball and run, someone should really tell Rugby Union.

I was saying the same thing to a bloke last week...
Arsenal should have splashed the cash and gone for a top quality Defensive Midfielder like Anatoliy Tymoschuk but he's joining Bayern München in the summer...

Not a problem and I suppose that's as close as it's going to get to you admitting you were wrong and as you can see, it took me all of 15 minutes or so. :lol:

I'd say Samir Nasri is more of a Attacking midfielder/Winger rather than a Holding Midfielder...
