Ratings and post-match discussion vs Ipswich

[Jasard]

JD are his initials, and the first 2 letters of his surname are DJ, and which is more likely to catch on, let's be honest.

Fair enough.

 

[Klaus Daimler]

That is so stupid.

 

[yuvken]

He's been called both JD and DJ for a long time.

 

[Jasard]

Sorry for dragging it off topic, it's just something that's bugged me recently

 

[cloista]

It was actually meant more as a rhetorical question, I'm not saying it isn't silly, but hey, it's noticeable. Personally we could call him Mango for all I care as long as he keeps playing the way he has been this season.

 

[Jury]

Erm He's Mango to me now! Yeah...Mango

 

[Ron Burgundy]

It has to be either JD or Mango. DJ is just... wrong. Quite literally.

 

[yuvken]

What with Bac? Heard something of a broken nose - any true to that?

Sorry, Ron. It has been my preferred, and I didn't hear anything convincing to let it go. Though Mango is another cheerful option

 

[Raider]

Wouldn't have thought it was a broken nose. He wasn't complaining or holding his nose and wasn't getting treatment for his nose... it seemed like concussion. The impact with the ground seemed to knock him out momentarily and wasn't moving.

But he'll be alright, he's a wall.

Surprised Bendtner is getting only a quarter of the votes for MOTM as I thought he was very strong through the whole game.

Nearly assisted the opening goal with RVP deciding the cross bar was better to hit :wink: , was solid in possession, physical threat and defended well.

His goal was brilliant....reminded me of the one vs Aston Villa a while back. It also came at a pivotal period as it looked like the nerves were starting to build up.

Good on him to come through and put down a little of the Chamakh love fest that has deteriorated his stock.

What a player wee Jack is! I mean, he's bossing that midfield at his age!

Anyway, Wembeley, Wembeley!!!

I've always thought the DJ at the start of his surname was the reason... which always made sense to me... in the world of footy which is, let's face it, complete and utter bollocks!

That's akin to calling our captain FA.

DJ Mango!

Not someone I'd pay £ 15 to go see at Ministry of Sound.

The thing I loved most about Wilshere's recent performances is his desire for the cause. He gives that extra effort in certain situations that other players wouldn't. You even see him press relentlessly in harmless areas in order to overturn possession. Fabregas gave his absolute all today aswell, but Wilshere just played like a man possessed. Again, I didn't think he was great on the ball, even though it was definitely better than usual, but the intensity with which he plays the game is so refreshing.

Eboue, Denilson and Arshavin were really poor to varying degrees.

 

[amirkat]

I thought Wilshere was outstanding tonight; the best midfielder on the pitch.

Denilson and Arshavin were better than I thought they would be, so that's a positive I guess. We still need to be more clinical - why are we making all these goalkeepers look World Class ffs.

Still, we're in the final of the League Cup!

Would you pay a tenner if you were a member?

*reminisce on the good old days*

 

[Kain]

Gave my vote to Koscielny, fair ****s to him. Made some great interceptions high up the pitch (especially the one where he went on his ass and continued to defend) plus popped up with the goal that sent us into the final & was part of yet another clean sheet performance.


#edit# also had to play an hour or so with a yellow f****** card that wasn't a yellow in a million years, thanks to the ref who should be nowhere near top flight football.

 

[fabo]

We were awful for a good hour. The final will be a slugfest I'd say.

Szczesny.........6....where was he for the Sagna collision. Nowhere near the ball.

Sagna........n/a
Eboue.........5....weak link straight away.
Djourou..........7
Koscielny........7
Clichy........6...beaten a couple of times.

Denilson.........6
Wilshere...........7....alot of sloppy moments.
Cesc.........7...+1 for the goal, not great otherwise.

Arshavin.......5....he's shot atm.
RVP........6....average.
Bendtner........7....extra for a superb goal. Kills us on the right though, too static.
