arsenal vs portsmouth

despite missing el capitan cesc fabregas, the gooners shit all over portsmouth in their own stadium today. the boy rambo (is he 19 yet?) has been making a convincing case as a midfield general, showcasing ridiculous passing ability, positional sense, and most importantly the ability to score. he cleverly set up samir nasri's strike to make it 2-0, and bagged a solo goal that made me wet my pants. in addition, alex song capped off an excellent defensive performance with a beautiful header to cap off a 4-1 win.

all in all, it was an excellent evening that made me momentarily forget that my old lady is out of town and i haven't gotten any in over a week.

the goals:

rambo rapes scotland

18-year old aaron ramsey, after creating the first two goals, scores a third for wales in a friendly against scotland. watch him break mcmanus' ankles with an artful move, before man united's douchebag enforcer darren fletcher unsuccessfully tries his hand, giving what could have been a penalty in the process. love this shit.



shit like this keeps my mind off the senseless injury to robin van persie, and the official waving of the white flag by the new orleans hornets franchise. fuck...

asleep at the wheel

been a minute since my first post, but i seriously doubt my fellow dank gamers were losing any sleep over the lack of arsenal coverage. i am gonna try to not write too much about the day to day politics of the team, cuz there's a lot of people who do that shit way better than me, but i am gonna talk some shit occasionally and post nasty goals.

speaking of nasty goals, which i was, peep this one from the boy boy aaron ramsey for the welsh under-21 team against italy today (check the backheel flick he takes to set it up):



our midfield is so deep this year! even with nasri, rosicky and wolcott injured, we still have so many options. song, cesc and denilson (first goal of the season!) as a starting midfield trio is a great combination of creativity and defensive ability, and behind them we have the likes of ramsey, wilshere, and merida to come in and attack off the bench. i am very encouraged by the pairing of gallas and vermaelen at centerback... let's pray the boy stays fit.

man city is next weekend, and i will be shocked if we don't beat the shit out of them. it will be toure and adebayor's first visit to emirates since their departure, and the crowd will be hostile. ade might score, but i really doubt they'll beat us.

guess that's it... i might post this arshavin goals compilation in a second. shit is outrageous.
