Denied a blatant penalty, soft one given against them. Give the Arse some credit, they played well and took part in a memorable game. I would be choked too if I were him.

Man U v Chelsea would make a cracker of a final,so here's hoping.But hj4u,i'm hoping Arsenal beat you at OT on Sunday,to set up a humdinger of a match at Stamford Bridge on the 26th April.hj4u wrote:

He has always been a bad loser

Even Neutral commentators have pointed out the obvious deficiencies in his team which he refuses to fix for god knows what reason

If Adebayor had taken his chances Liverpool would have been toast

If Sendaros & Kolo Toure hadn't defended like junior first gamers

Conceding goals after scoring is a classic case of immaturity

Bottom line is they didn't have the experience needed to rise to the occasion and he should have been gracious enough to accept that
and move on

Senderos was a right donkey that night. Adabayor seems to have lost his early goalscoring form....and touch (just watch him go and score at the weekend now I've said that).

If you take the 3 defensive blunders

flamini in the first leg that released gerrard

sendaros that gave torres an inside look at goal

toure who chops down a player whos got nowhere to go

Suddenly its 3-2 to arsenal even before you start talking about
all the other BIG decisions that didn't go arsenes way

One word sums it up

Composure

I have always liked Wegner. He was years ahead of his time when he came to The Premiership, introduced dieticians and individual gym programmes for each squad member. His psychology is legendary, whether its mind games with other managers or geeing an ordinary player up to a class performance on the day.
Of course, ALL managers have adopted his ways as standard now, but I honestly doubt Arsenal will ever get a replacement like him again.

Mourinho, of course, was different class all together!

I am not an Arsenal fan, but do not believe that Arsene Wegner has had credit for one major thing.

Arsenal took on a huge debt to build a new stadium. This was a bold thing to do for a single football club.

This debt has obviousy had an impact on how much money Wegner has had to spend in the last 2 or 3 years.

But have you heard him complain about it, no he has not said a word and just got on with his job.

Look at today's squads:

Man Utd - Ferdinand (30 million), Rooney (20 million), Ronaldo (12 million), Carrick (14 million), Hargreaves (17 million), Anderson (17 million), Nani (15 million) - figures are off the top of my head but you get the idea.

Arsenal - Sagna (6 million) Eduardo (7 million), Rosicky (7 million) and all of them injured.

You have to go back to 2005 before you get to Hleb at 11 million before you get a transfer over 10 million.

He deserves some credit for even being so long at the top this season, particularly as it was the first season without Henry.
