MotM - PL: Arsenal vs Newcastle United | 23/01/05

[Exiled In Newcastle]

Paddy. When he plays at his imperious best there's no better and that's what we got from him yesterday.

Den would be second - up for it from the first minute and some of his 'switches' were superb.

Third - I think he's only been mentioned once but considering it was his firdt game back Ralph was excellent.

 

[kanuuu]

Reyes who just looked unbeleivably awesome

I think that's a bit of an overstatement. he looked lively and dangerous down the left but he doesn't really seem to know what to do alot of the time, he kept misplacing passes and Henry was getting pissed off. :roll:

no, he kept putting in perfect passes and henry ****ed em up and THEN henry was getting pissed off! yesterday i was wishin at times reyes would just shoot instead of passing to henry

 

[kanuuu]

Come on there were quite a few times where Reyes weighted the pass wrong or played it way too early, although i also i find Henry's attitude towards him annoying.

 

[RocktheCasbah]

I thought Reyes did do that, but not that often, kanuuu. But Thierry definitely didn't have one of his better games yesterday and Reyes put in a much better performance.

 

[awooga83]

Reyes was much improved yesterday sometimes he would put a bad pass or cross in but thats just his inexperience quite often yesterday he put decent balls in which an on form henry would have converted and surprised me with his crossing ability.

 

[Chips&CurrySauce]

Well Reyes put in 2 perfect crosses, which should have been buried. I thought Reyes played well and it annoys me when Henry gives it the attitude.. No one else sulks when he is having one of those games when none of his flicks come off, like yesterday and Bolton...

Agreed Exiled, I thought Lauren was excellent and we look so more solid and assured when he is in the back!

 

[Arnie]

Well done reyes very good...however there was only one man. I knew he would be man of the match after the 1st minute. He was back to the vieira that most of us know and love. His play was poetry in motion. Paddy -is back lads, now i know we will finish at least 2nd!!

 

[mood]

1. Vieira
2. Flamini
3. Bergkamp/Reyes

 

[seb_afc]

vieira - a sensational talent. when he is on form there is no midfielder like him. he was brilliant vs Newcastle, back to his best.

 

[godfather]

Vieira
1 of the best performance in recent months ;D
