NAMING RIGHTS THREAD: Liverpool really won't win the Premiership 2010-2011

Liverpool fans booing as Kosielny goes past them on a stretcher = classy.

fuck, i was about to come and moan about andy gray being a prick for not understanding zonal marking, but no way was that worse than wilshere's foul on masch.

bring back Sol.

Another game ruined by moronic refereeing. If cole's was a red so was wilshere's.

is there actually not another central defender on the arsenal bench?

WENGER: SILVESTRE'S RETURN WILL INSPIRE US

xp Technically no, but Song can play there

Why isn't van persie playing? Injured?

Song's kind of a central defender, right? An unfit kind of central defender.

yeah, so i know he's andy gray and i should completely ignore him, but christ. he does his "rafa's zonal marking is shite" thing, then says that every single liverpool player is marking a man, even though gerrard and masch are clearly marking zones!

and breathe.

lol andy gray. yeah cole's was most probably just a yellow on replay, as was wilshere's.

van Injury isn't actually injured, he's just not been in training as long due to playing all summer. Chamakh >>> N'Gog though so it's fine.

JUSTICE FOR ENGLAND'S BRAVE JOE COLE

Jovanovic: The Next Voronin?

You mean good start then dire? He looks useful tho, surging run.

hey Koscielny's not dead.

JUSTICE FOR JOE, YOU'LL NEVER WALK ALONE

Oh they're not worried about ngog, fuck off paul merson footie "expert"

nice finish ;_;

Oh man, I was just going to post 'arsenal wont win this game' before that goal

who was it fucking up for the goal?

Justice for Joe? Lol hillsborough, great jokes there.

who was it fucking up for the goal?

Wilshere for giving away possession, Vermaelan for not tracking his man, Almunia for being beaten at his near post from a tight angle.

Nice to see Arsenal keeping up our fair play and saying we should play with ten men in spirit. Unfortunately didn't seem to decide on which man should be anonymous so most of them took it on themselves to step up.

n'gog will one day be sold for over £15m

maybe i'm bored of football or something but this game is tedious

^^^I was thinking the same

hodgson looks narcoleptic

We look awful and Liverpool look like a team with 9 men.

arshavin/fabregas/van persie all having injury/commitment issues srsly compromises arsenal's attacking invention

i guess they'll get better to some extent and arsenal will end up much the same as last season

Chamakh puts the seal on a classy performance.

ohhhh no

REINA YOU BEAUTY

loooooooool

Reina to Arsenal is ON.

koscielny looks like a proper jamie 'fuck you i can get away with anything' carragher of a player.

Didn't get away with that really.

Not really fussed about the new season yet and the prospect of watching Arsenal do the same thing again for the whole campaign is not enticing, although comedy og almost makes up for it

Two points literally dropped there

Looked like a pussy referee "even up the red cards" decision tho.

"its not a ball to handjob" good one co-commentator

lol

also "ball to hand job" lol commentator.

otherwise got to be happy with that

Don't really see either of these two challenging us this season, we can concentrate on the big guns like Chelsea, Blackpool.

can we buy a new fucking centre half this week arsene? i know its only blackpool at home next week but ffs.

Disappointing but would have taken 1-1 at the break. Good spirited performance.

along with the ball to handjob I also enjoyed the co-commentator suggesting that Kuyt would let his mum look at his genital injury.

anyway that red looked harsh to me, he had about a tenth of a second to react.

Would have taken 1-1 at Anfield any season, just glad we didn't lose the first game of the season.

Hopefully that's Reina's one mistake for the season, though wouldve been better if he'd left it 'til they were already 2-0 down to Stoke or someone

Promising start to the season. Would be a shame if Mascherano left because he did very well protecting the back four with Gerrard.

More importantly, when did Sky decide Arsenal should be abbreviated to ARL instead of ARS? Looks ridiculous.
