Anyone watching this?

Arsenal have only fielded a young side with most of their top players missing but theyre doing pretty well so far

Yeah, but it's dull.

I wish i could watch it, but it's not on TV here in Holland...
How's Van Persie doing?

He just scored...
2-0...
Nice goal from Fabregas also..

Yeah I just saw it on gamecast (a text-based live coverage of the game)
Guess he's doing good, as he also gave the assist for Fabregas' goal

Well they have to not lose at the emirates stadium but they basically have, yeah

Yeah I cant see them losing.
Looks like Reyes will leave btw. They kept him on the bench so he will still be able to play in the European tournaments for an other team. I wont miss him.

Looks like Ashley Cole will leave too.

Yi-Long · Post by **Yi-Long** » 09 Aug 2006, 08:38

Yeah... cant say I care much about either one. Cole has been a dick ever since Chelsea tapped him up. As I've said before, they should have dumped Cole right there and then for 30 million euro or something, and gotten YP Lee from PSV Eindhoven (Who is now at Tottenham and playing very very well)\

Reyes ... I feel he's too inconsistent, plus I never liked him cause it seemed like Wenger often picked Reyes over Bergkamp in his line-ups, while Bergkamp is clearly the better player to have in the squad...
Probably ahs something to do with Wenger preferring to let his own players (his own buys) play, instead of Bergkamp, who was there at Arsenal before Wenger...
