I just knew we were gonna win it when Dennis scored our second goal. And when I was still celebrating for the Pires goal and watching replays, then suddenly, Martin Tyler's voice came - REYESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!
And then on the screen, Reyes scored? oh what a game that was. F*cking great.

um, guys, mind to tell me something. I dont really get it wheres clockend, west stand, and what lower higher???? Cause I watch from TV, and theres only left and right for me.

 

[Aussie]

All i can say is **** me. I thought we were ****ed when we were 3-1 down. What a come back the boys showed great spirit.

Left of the TV screen would be North Bank and right is the Clock End (South Bank). The main TV cameras are on the West Bank looking at the East Bank where the teams are seated.

The seats for the away team supporters are located at the Clock End corner next to the West Bank.

 

[Soler]

Mind boggling.

Well that was an interesting match eh.

We totally lost the plot there for a little while but Boro's goal were all major faults by us. 5 times we had a chance to win the tackle for the first goal but didn't and a great finish, 2nd goal wtf was Cygan doing and 3rd Lehmann was very badly positioned. 2 of those goals were unstoppable by Lehmann though, bad to beaten at your near post but those shots went like f****g bullets! Everton's goal came from good play but these 3 were all cheap cheap goals, need to get these out of our system. Cygan isn't great but he has looked much better in the past, needs to sort himself out. Without Vieira and Campbell it is obvious we aren't gonna be as strong.

As for our attack today, sensational. We took em apart at times today which was great to see. The first half we should of been leading 3-0 going into half time, hit the bar, post and some great saves by their keeper. We were all over them for most of that match and definitely deserved to win.

For the next few games Fred has to be dropped and Pires bought on, or maybe leave him as our very own super sub as he has been brilliant when he has come on. But you can't drop Reyes or Dennis after them 2 putting on another brilliant performance, especially Dennis who has really rolled back the years, f****g genius that guy and also what a goal by Reyes pure class.

Very good wrap-up, JAZZ G...that sums it all up !

We have to praise Wenger, that we are finally in the position to conduct some high-quality midfield rotation, which is essential in competing successfully in the EPL and CL.

Imagine Viera coming back and RVP developing...

And Dennis in his last season leading us through the non-Viera times. We just need to get Sol back quickly. Toure doesn´t perform too well without him and Cygan is obviously swamped with his task (well, who wouldn´t be - replacing Sol?)

That was a great comeback, just shows what a special team we are, its when you are almost down and out when you know how good you are and we showed that yesterday.

However mainly one man deserves all the credit yesterday, Dennis Bergkamp, he started it and carried us all the way, a great captsains performance. They say that players are irreplacable but I seriously can't say that for Bergy. He is an absolute legend.

The goals were a bit sloppy, Cygan tends to have a good game and then totally loses concentration resulting in the second goal. Great finishing by the Boro strikers, the third goal was intended as a cross and Jens assumed it would be. Still a great comeback!!

Thanks for telling me.

The season ticket holders, sit in an area known as "The Library corner", a special place reserved for the hard of shouting, you can see the warning signs with "SHHHSSSS" posted around the outside. :mrgreen:

 

[Gurgen]

Unbelievable what a match.
Dennis Bergkamp, pulled us through when we needed him the most, what a worthy captain of Arsenal.
And Reyes and Cesc, what absolute class.
Only thing I'm worried about is a certain bald Frenchman called Cygan.

 

[Aussie]

I was still celerbrating Pires goal and they were showing a reply of it then all of a suddent they cut back to the action and **** me the ball was in the back of the net. Couldnt belive it.

Great confidence booster that game. Just goes to show that we are NEVER out of the game.

That really shook me up too man!! I was wondering if there was some mistake with the replay or something cause I was still watching the replay the Reyes struck.

Anyone got a pic of Mclaren sitting on the stairs looking stumped, shaking his head, and having some kind of weird smile on his face after we scored the fourth goal? That is a picture to savour!!!

 

[Vilas]

Who was the commentator that said (somthing like) "wow...they're never going to lose again..." I was so amused.

Boring boring arsenal, eh?

 

[Aussie]

Yes boring ****ing Arsenal indeed.

[Arnie]

or when he shook pires' hand for the third??

Bloody hell my mates called me up at three one for a laugh. I wanted to cry, but i'm a man!! :x

They made me miss Bergy's Goal!! :evil: That was a peach!!

I was so bloody relieved and happy at 3-3 and like u guys said they were still showing a replay when reyes scored his 5th goal in 5 starts!!

Now i wish i bought that ticket of cappy :cry:

What a game, what a result

 

[jeromelee]
