Arsenal Round Up

At last some good news today. Eduardo has won his appeal and can play on Wednesday against Standard Liege. His two match ban has been lifted. The other good news is that Philip Neville could be out for the rest of the season with a knee injury and the reserves beat Stoke City (aka Lump-It City) 1-0. That's three wins out of three.

I hate Stoke and Tony Pullis. They are the new Wimbledon of the Premiership. Thug football.

The Adebayor/Manchester City Aftermath

Ian Wright says that Arsenal fans can dish it out but can't take it back. He's referring to the songs that Arsenal fans sang about Adebayor's mum being a whore.

When you have 4,000 Gooners belting it out around you, it's hard to stop yourself from joining in. It's that powerful. I remember when George Graham returned to Highbury as the Tottenham boss in a match that Arsenal dominated but could only draw 0-0. They sang the same song. The bloke sitting next to me shook his head in disgust as the Clock End sang about Graham's mum being a whore. But by the end of the game, as Spurs played anti-football to claim a point they didn't deserve, the same bloke was joining in full throttle.

So Ian Wright should refrain from making any comments. After all, during his playing days he was full of controversy much like Adebayor is today. But what really gets me me about Ian Wright is that his fake son Sean Phillips (no need to add the Wright to his name now is there Ian, after all he's another mans ejaculation not yours) was also playing for Man City on Saturday.

Ian Wright is going from a legend to a cunt.

On Saturday, I listened to the BBC 606 phone-in. One City fan thought that Adebeyor's antics were the funniest thing he had ever seen in football. Another one called Arsenal, City's feeder club. On Talksport today, City fans claimed that van Persie's tackle on Adebayor deserved a red card and was the reason behind his stamp on the Dutchman. Another one claimed that when van Persie scored, he celebrated in front of the City fans shouting swear words in the process. The same City fan claimed that RvP's celebration was no different to Adebayor's. Another City fan called in to claim that some Arsenal fans threw bananas at Adebayor - a made-up lie.

Spurs fans claim that Arsenal fans got what they deserved especially after Thierry Henry back in 2002 ran the full length of the pitch to slide on his knees and celebrate in front of the Spurs fans at Highbury. Remember, Henry had just scored a wonder goal. A goal that won't be repeated in my lifetime. He collected the ball from the halfway line and went past three Spurs players before scoring to make it 1-0 to Arsenal in game that finished 3-0. There are differences between Henry's celebration and Adebayor's:

Henry never played for Spurs.
He didn't have his arms outstretched unlike Adebayor.
His head was bowed.

Henry is not a cunt. Below is my list of cunts:
