De 30 mins Arsenal put down after dey went behind against Bolton last weekend was stuff not even Brazil in dey heydays did match.  Dem fellas on a nex football planet entirely.

I doh expect dem to win any trophy's dis year but fork dat!  DIS is some serious football being displayed.  Granted it was only against Bolton but still.......I rather watch football like dis and doh win no trophy dan watch football play like how Chelsea was playin up to las year and win a few.

Dey talk about all that matters is what hardware yuh have.  What yuh win.  I guarantee yuh dat when people look back at des years in de EPL....yes dey will talk about Man Utd incredible EPL trophy winning streak and rightly so.  But they will also talk about Wenger's Arsenal and it will go down as one of the most entertaining teams in the history of football....not just english football, right up there with Puskas' Real Madrid,  Zidane's Real Madrid, Ronaldinho's Barcelona, Baresi's AC Milan etc.  All those teams won titles and as sure as night follows day, Arsenal will win theirs too.  Is jes a matter of time.

yuh get ure wish.....
wooo boy...dem mods does move fast.

[Observer]

Arsenal deserve to lose today on performance alone.
Yes they created more chances, but overall far too many players were poor today. Adebayor, Eboue, Walcott, Gallas, Van Persie all showed little desire and were all willing to let others do the work. Walcott was back to his 10 bad things for every good one . 3 goals now from corners, hmm! clearly their man marking set up on corners needs reviewing

[Cocorite]

So what was the final score???

[Cocorite]

Ok saw it was Hull 2-1.

Hull is kinda the Golden State Warriors of the EPL, boi?

[Bakes]

A well-deserved loss for Arsenal.  I slept thru the first half and didn't see it... but I can't imagine that I missed much.  From accounts it seemed Hull played them to a standstill there.  However after the shitty scramble goal they fell into a 15-minute spell where I thought they played the game with contempt... as though the win was there for their taking...whenever they wanted it. 

Very nonchalant, even lazy passing and defending... resulting in acres of time and space for Geovanni to shoot...and score.  Incidentally Almunia should have done better at reading the flight of that ball, it wasn't that hard a bullet that he couldn't better shift his feet under him.  Cousin's winner was just a well-taken header... you can fault Gallas for allowing him to get open, but sometiimes good offense beats good defense.   On this play the defense wasn't good, but not all bad.  Just better offense by Cousin.

hull could make it to europe this season

they just wanted it more

eboue iz ah purge wenger

bentner is also a waste. and van persie played too deep

[D.H.W]

 

[Reaper2004]

Never thought I would see a new team from the Championship league who get promoted to the Prem beat the Gunners on their own turf, well done Hull well done.

[GunnerStunner]

didn't see it but from all accounts

typical c**tish defending, when ever we play a lower team we arrogantly think were are going to stroke the ball around with wanton abondonment. see fullham game.

what a load of shit

well done Hull they really impressing me this season, to be honest i thought they coulda been a bogey side and they are turning out to be that, here's to them repeating the giant killing at manure, chelski and liverfool

[fari]

who laughs last laughs the best.  don't sleep on this hull side b/c they are well-disciplined and play for each other and in geovanni and cousin they have two decent players. i predict that they will scalp one or two more 'big' teams before this is over. good win for them; for the gunners it is on to the next match.

Always nice to see Arsenal lose. I never hated a team like I do Arsenal

Agreed.  The little I've seen of them thus far (two games), they are very disciplined defensively and are an excellently coached team... I'm sure most of these Prem teams are.  Hull players however, really take to the coaching and do a good job keeping shape, tracking back and executing the fundamentals on both ends.  However, I still think they lack enough firepower to withstand a 38 game haul.  They've made a brilliant splash on the scene though and future debutantes would do well to copy their early formula.

The truth is Gallas has been a liability in his defending for three years now. But he is a big name and people never want to single out Gallas. The truth is as a central defender Gallas has cost both Arsenal & France with his lapses.

I agree.

He is weak and routinely gets outmusceled in the air. If he would attack the ball on the defensive end with the same fervor as he does on the offensive end he would do better.

They deserved to lose.

[Observer]

What was interesting for me was that Arsenal critics in the British media, have always pointed the finger at Arsenal unwillingness to shoot (which I agree with) and to cross the ball into the penalty area. Well they shot yesterday Fabragas on target a couple of times and Van Persie way off target. Now on the crossing department, Arsenal yesterday rain balls into the penalty area, making them somewhat predictable and most of which were gobbled up by the Hull back line or keeper. I could not help but think why attack Hull this way, after all they played in the Championship where they faced crossing teams day in day out. Hull should be applauded though they defended with discipline & committment and then took their chances.

Bake n Shark I felt Alumina was beaten more by the placement & dip of the shot. In truth I thought it was a great goal.

Not only did it dip, but it swerve too.

[Touches]

I coulda handle the 1-0

it was a boss goal. But arsenal real 4k up theyself.

Adeyabor coulda score.Vp, Eboue, Walcott Bentner all of them coulda buss the net. They want to walk in the goal.

Steupppssss.

[dinho]

now take in the highlights..

that was goal of the week..

Almunia dive make the string up look good too.

valencia ah tink he name iz fuh wigan now make goal of the week

[palos]

Neither Giovanni's nor Valencia's goal were better than Stern John's goal last week.

[giggsy11]

As much as Bendtner is a shithoug, how come Van Persie aint gettin no stick? Whwn was the last time he do anything? He forever pullin stones, always hurt and does thro way more than Adebyoul.  Gunner?
