TFoA Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Tottenham pulled off a pretty big upset in the San Siro today, beating AC Milan 1-0 in the first leg.However, the story was Gattuso absolutely losing his mind during the game. Reckless fouls, referee abuse, embellishment like crazy, & to top it all off, he shoved Spurs assistant coach Joe Jordan at one point DURING THE GAME, and headbutted dude at the end of the game.Gattuso's going to miss the 2nd leg of the tie because he's picked up one too many yellow cards, but he's probably going to sit out more after the nonsense that went down today. Absolutely disgusting display from that dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billy B Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 That was a great result for Spurs today, especially that they did it without Gareth Bale. The return leg in London should be a great one, hopefully they can hold on and move through to the quarterfinals.In the other Champions League match, Valencia and Schalke played to a 1-1 draw. It was Raul who got the equalizer for Schalke in his return trip to Spain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viper Posted February 16, 2011 Share Posted February 16, 2011 Arsenal must beat Barca tomorrow at home, by 2-0 or better if they can manage it. They've got the horses to pull that off, but if they're merely level or worse going into the second leg at Camp Nou, they're probably toast. The Gunners have not done particularly well against elite competition away from Emirates this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really was something else. Great result for Spurs, but the tie is not over yet. 1 goal is not too hard to make up, evdn away from home, especially against a side like Spurs. 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viper Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 Big 2-1 win for Arsenal at home this evening, after a couple of amazing goals by van Persie and Arshavin. I am a little worried about David Villa's away goal for Barcelona though; it means the Gunners can't afford a 2nd-leg shutout unless it's the dreaded goalless draw, and somehow I doubt that's going to happen between these two clubs.

That means Abidal & Milito as our centerbacks. No sir, I dont like it.

Viper Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 EPL bottom-feeders West Ham are taking Liverpool to the woodshed. Ditto former bottom-feeders Wolves against Blackpool.Meanwhile Arsenal can finally bring home their first new piece of hardware to Emirates in today's Carling Cup final vs. Birmingham City. No Fabregas or Walcott in the Gunners' lineup though, so I'm a little worried. Brum's been on a bit of a roll themselves, and Arsenal doesn't exactly have a flawless track record against teams they should defeat handily.Update: 1-1 at the half. A bit sloppy defense by the Gunners in the first half, but Zigic's goal for Brum on a perfectly placed header seemed to wake Arsenal up.Update #2: Well, so much for the quadruple, as Arsenal has their very own Robert Green moment late in the 2nd. Goalie Wojciech Szczesny mis-handles an easy save, giving Obafemi Martins the equivalent of an uncontested layup to win the Carling Cup for Birmingham City.

Saintsfan Posted February 27, 2011 Author Share Posted February 27, 2011 Not entirely fair to put all the blame on the keeper for that last goal, the defender really ought to have cleared the ball.Arsenal have lacked two things for a long while now. Leadership in defence and a real engine to drive the team forward from deep in midfield. Both those things were severely lacking today. But Birmingham were very effective throughout. Ben Foster (man of the match in the Carling Cup Final for the second time in three years) was outstanding in the Birmingham goal, Zigic was an excellent target man, and Bowyer was crucial in midfield. 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFoA Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Wow, Arsenal. You let Birmingham win a trophy. Literally, you basically gave them the cup.Also, MCFC frustrates me to no end. They drew Fulham today & Fulham definitely looked like the better team. They went into cruise control after Balotelli scored, & you can't do that against the scrappier teams like Fulham. Either way, City's hopes for the Premiership died today, & it's gonna be another dogfight for the CL spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viper Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Well, at least the Gunners and their fans were able to take out their frustration on poor little Leyton Orient today, 5-0 in their FA Cup last-16 2nd-leg. Of course, now they get ManU in the quarters... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
