Your best and worst Arsenal moments in 2005/2006.

[Mostarac]

Sorry if posted before. Anyway, thought we could post here what was our personal ups and downs when it comes to Arsenal in 2005/2006. Personally, the worst moment for me was Belletti`s goal in Paris, a really **** goal which completely destroyed all our hopes of winning Champions League for the first time in our history. The best one was our win against Wigan in the final match at good old Highbury, was really sad and happy at same time that day, sad because we left Highbury after so many memorable years there, and happy because we won against Wigan to get that 4th place ahead of Tottenham.

Best -

Going one nil up in Paris - was on top of the world for an hour, so close.
The night before and day of the game in Paris, Gooners everywhere, great times.
Winning in Madrid.
Playing Juve off the park at Highbury.
Jens in Villareal.
And obviously the last day at Highbury, movie script stuff. Simply couldnt get any better.

Worst -

Walking away from the ground in Paris in the rain.
Getting home from Bolton, Blackburn, Everton, Liverpool, Utd, Newcastle.

i don't know why but my worst moment IMO is when man u beat us at OT when we were on our mini revival.

I still remember having a fever and headache and suffer a little depression. It was real bad.

 

[hellolo]

Diabys injury was definitely one of the lowlights as well; simply due to the ****ish nature of it ><

 

[gunner321]

best:riquelmes pen miss and sol campbell giving me false hope against all odds.

worst:barcas goals.

 

[>YounGunner<]

The best was Henrys goal against Real Madrid by far. Proved everyone wrong. Sol Campbells goal was great while it lasted........


Worse has to be Etoos goal because i knew it was all over even though it was 1 - 1

 

[dublingunner]

Best for me was Henry's goal against Madrid, and that performance as a whole, because it came at a time when we were really struggling in the Premiership and nobody gave us any hope.

Worst was coming back down to earth with a bang by losing against Blackburn the following Saturday. I had been so hopeful the Madrid match would signal a new beginning. Course, in the end it did signal a new beginning, just not until after the Blackburn match.

 

[Seabass]

I don't think we'll see much variation in these, but I'll throw my best/worst moments in here anyway...

Best:

- Lehmann's penalty save on Riquelme... justice!
- Campbell's goal against Barca
- Henry's goal versus Real Madrid
- The entire first leg against Juve
- Bergkamp scoring on Dennis Bergkamp Day
- Henry's hat-trick in the final league game at Highbury

Worst:

- The loss in Paris... nothing else compares to this
- Two or three times, I came home after a trip, not knowing what the weekend's results were, only to find out that Arsenal lost to Bolton, or some other hateful team... very frustrating
- The Pires/Henry penalty debacle versus Man City... funny now, but at the time I was upset
- Losing on an absolutely idiotic extra-time/away goals rule against Wigan in the League Cup after RvP took the lead for us

 

[IBL]

So many to choose from:

Best:
- our entire CL run right until the equalising goal
- Henry breaking Wrighty's record in some style with a brace (against Zagreb?)
- Final day beating Wigan and making the Spuds sh*t themselves
- Lehman's save against Riquelme, our performance against Juve at Highbury
- 7-0 drubbing of Boro
- Bergy scoring on DB day
- Henry's equaliser against the Spuds

Worst:
- Baletti's goal, still not recovered from it
- Our away form domestically, especially at Bolton
- Diaby's injury
- Farewell to Dennis and Bobby
- the whole Cashley saga

[Josh27]

Best for me is still Thierry scoring against Real Madrid. The goals sends shivers down my spine every team I see it!

Worst has to be losing against Barca late on. And the fact we were so poor away from home in the league.

 

[croatia_gooner]

worst - last 15 mins of CL final, no doubt about that...

best - campbell's goal, jens' penalty save in villareal and of course wigan game

[sparky44]

Best Moments:

-Beating real madrid and juventus
-Henrys goal agianst Sp**s

Worst Moments:

-The constant media critism of arsenal
-Losing to united, at home to chelsea and losing in the worst possible way to liverpool.
-Watching didier drogba score a ****ty goal and beating us
-Bolton beating us in the FA cup

Last season was a nightmare, it was truely awful (for our standards) but one postive came out of last season - the birth of cesc fabregas. Now he is a much better player and the team is now built around him. Last season was truely a transition period and it was a big gamble to have wenger put so much faith in cesc but it looks to have really paid off. The guy is just incredible.

This is the season where it happens people, havent been more optimistic in all the years ive supported arsenal!
