The Japanese language has such cool sounding words. My favorite Asian language to listen too.

Random thought :lol:

Can't front, thread title is on point for us gooners.

Hopefully we bounce back against everton this weekend. Finishing third would make up for this roller coaster of a season we're having, and a strong FA cup run (and hopefully raising of the cup) will bring some solace to the heartache we endured yesterday.
 
Smh at Liverpool getting eliminated by batiskas. Funny thing is, I said to one of my co workers than Lovren was gonna do something to cause us to lose the match and sure enough, he did.
 
I don't really care to slander the EPL, it's the league I watch most after La Liga...but the fanboys need to be brought to reality.

In back to back days Arsenal lost to Monaco, and Liverpool in the round of freakin 32 of Europa getting eliminated by Besiktas. Add to that, Man City got dominated by Barca in that first half and eventually lost on their home field. The best result the English teams got in European comp was a 1-1 draw.

All you hear is how la liga sucks because they're top heavy, but their sides stay taking care of business and showing out in European comp.
 
Nobody watching Copa Libertadores right now? This Santa Fe vs Colo Colo match is very entertaining :lol:


That sponsor on the Chelsea kit looks much better than Turkish Airlines.

I can relate, I grew up watching a lot of anime.




Oh and shout out to my underdog team, the Yellow Submarine doing their thing in Austria :pimp:
Really like their squad, Luciano Vietto is a youngster to watch out for.

I haven't really seen much EPL caping aside from one or 2 people,there's really not much to cape for right now

. The league's not in the best shape quality wise at all and each of the usual powerhouses, aside from Chelsea, have been struggling.

There's still some time left for many clubs to turn it around but I agree that as of now,the EPL looks the weakest that it's been in years.

Regardless of where Southampton finishes in the table, I thoroughly watching Koeman's side perform. Defensively, Saints hustle to recover possession desperately. All their midfielders are accustomed to two-way play, thus comfortable rotating roles and responsibilities. Offensively, Southampton is efficient with their possession and deliberate with intent to get forward. I would rather they finish top-4 and secure CL football rather than Gunners, United, LFC, or Spurs. Their recent form is alarming, having earned only 4 points in the team's last four fixtures. Minus trips to Ethiad and Stamford Bridge, Saints have a very manageable close to the campaign.
 
^i think purely from an aesthetic standpoint, Samsung looked dope on Chelsea jerseys. But if I were a Chelsea fan, I wouldn't eem be mad since Yokohama doesn't look bad and Chelsea isn't like Arsenal...they'll actually put that additional money toward bringing in talent.

They don't have anyone to push Pelle and with his recent dip of form it is really difficult to see where the goals are going to come from. Their width has been creating chances, but if no one is to take them it will be hard for them to get goals, as I don't think the other attackers are going to get many. Shane Long is fit again, but I personally don't rate him and don't think he has the quality to get in the top 4, but as you said it really is one of the most interesting teams to watch. So glad Schnederlin is back, his partnership with Wanyama is great to watch.
 
Everyone was going crazy over that last night :lol:

Isco will be Iniesta's replacement on the national team
 
Can someone tell me what the deal with thedress is?

Edit: never mind my fam just explained it to me.

The dress is black/blue.

The way the light is hitting it and the quality of the camera most people think the dress looks white/gold. Some people think it looks like the original color, black&blue.

The white/gold people couldn't see black/blue, but after a better quality pic some can now see it. However many white/gold believers refuse or still "can't" see it and they will die believing that the dress is white/gold (sort of like how EPL apologists refuse to believe that the're not close to being the best league anymore)



Think that sums it up? If anyone else can add

I'll PM you when our itinerary/plans are set. We have traditionally went in August the last 3-4 years but I think we're shooting for sometime in July.

Gooners - Why isn't Oxlade-Chamberlain getting more playing time? Every time I've seen him play he does well.

It's funny. My son played the sweeper/fullback,CB role in his prior team but he was a decent dribbler so the coach on his new team converted him into a winger. He's always yelling at my son, "WIDE, WIDE, WIDE!!! - OUTSIDE IN OUTSIDE IN!!!!'

Because we have enough depth in those positions. Coquelin, Walcott, Sanchez, Cazorla, Ozil, etc. However at this point I don't see why he shouldnt.
 
I see blue and black. I'm still figuring why did people see white and gold. Just asked my boss and five co-workers recently. Four people said black and blue. Others said white and gold. It's insane that the picture is a hot topic on the internet now. By the way, the owner of the picture said blue and black. Her friend's mother wore that dress at a wedding party.
