Although Arsenal are not the strongest team (hence home & away defeats to both Utd and Chelsea) they have a significantly easier run in to the title than either Utd or Chelsea which will be made a lot smoother if they lose to Porto in CL tomorrow night.

Matthew 123 has said this on many occasions, he has often made reference to the fact that, and these are his words "Arsenal are physically weak", but I noticed when we beat Liverpool both home and away, he didn't mention it then. Perhaps because this would have made his own beloved Liverpool, by his own definition, weaker than Arsenal.

Fabulously astute analysis Atila!;-)

I think relatively speaking Arsenal are physically weaker than Liverpool, United and Chelsea (hell look at their continual injury list!) ... and you could also say they are weaker than Bolton, Blackburn etc. But my remark was about Arsenal not being the strongest/best team in the division.

Then using your criteria, we are stronger than Liverpool, Bolton and Blackburn. We haven't lost to any of those teams. Secondly, the only team I thought we were physically overrun was the home loss to Man U.We certainly didn't look weak when they, ONLY JUST beat us at their place, with the help of a dubious penalty decison, but thats one of those things, we didn't look phyically weak at Stamford Bridge and didn't play that badly. This physically weak thing is nonsense. Getting injured doesn't mean that our players are weak, unlucky, certainly, victims of some overly zealous challenges, oh yes. But physically weak? Diaby, Song, Vermaelen, Eboue, these do not come across as weak players, and Campbell certainly isn't weak . The easiest man to push off a ball, regularly fall over, I've ever seen play in the Prem is Emile Heskey, and how big is he!!!!


Arsenal physically weak, as the French would say NON!

Well it was a bit unbecoming for a gentleman to be kicked out of his own thread. Provocation I'd say.


PS How did he show you?

Double standards have been applied here. Whatever the provocation, he was banned and rightly so. Does this mean we can all start name calling, beg forgiveness and be let back in?

Was he also at the game on Saturday when the kid had a blinder and scored an excellent goal?

Just like you're team son. Chosen ones? For what, the butt of everyones jokes? As for crap, your team is littered with it as are your fans and your club.

      I don't think anyone here is claiming the Torygraph is the paragon of good reporting, or impartiality. I was referring to media organisations across the spectrum, and I opened it wide up, way beyond the BBC.  But, to your point, if you're making a programme about abortion, say, you're not going to interview the man/woman on the street with a moderate view, you're always going to go to the people at the extreme ends, that's the point of the exercise, right? And most people watching innately know what's objectively right and wrong, because mainly they're decent people who've had the privilege of growing up in a liberal, free-thinking, tolerant democracy.  There have always been despicable people, and there always will be. Things feel worse at the moment because of the immediacy of media, but maybe they aren't. One day, Trump will be a blip in history and everyone will be consumed with the next big problem. Probably a genocidal robot.

      If a pedestrian gets hit by a bike, it can be very serious. All it takes is someone not spotting a cyclist coming up at speed.    Clearly, no one wants a collision. so let’s just make it easier to be seen and for everyone to be safe. Bike lights (front and back), helmet lights, reflective strips on your backpack, high visibility clips on the ankles, wrists, lights on your spikes… it’s not hard and it shouldn’t be expensive. I’m just wondering if cyclists haven’t yet adjusted to the darker evenings and don’t actually realise. Perhaps cyclists don’t drive but would benefit from doing so and seeing what it’s like from a drivers point of view.  All cars had lights on.  One of the Boris bikes didn’t, it must have been broken as I thought they were automatic.

      The other thing is that the money the council makes from the festival is not spent in the local area, whereas money made from events in other parks are. Renata Hamvas would have to approve any change to the premises licence before the events team can consider a license for the proposal in the current form. There needs to be an organised local pushback this time, to at least stop that second weekend being granted. I am thinking along the lines of a door to door petition. There are local elections next May. Lot's of opportunity to make this an election issue for impacted wards around the park. Just need to be orgaised.
