It'll be the most ludicrous thing I've seen for a long time if Arsenal give him a new contract.

Not a chance they will win the Champions League, and struggling to get 4th place in league. No way Spurs will slip up like last season imo. 21 points off Utd, knocked out the cups by two lower league teams, if that constitutes a new 2 year contract extension, well, Arsenal are well on there way to becoming the new Liverpool

by Guest Mon 18 Feb 2013, 9:47 am

Thing is, we all said there was no chance of Chelsea winning the Champions League last season - and their team didn't have the likes of an in-form Wilshere and Walcott. I think they have a better chance than we're giving them credit for (ie 5% not 0%).

Arsenal need a fresh start with a committed and experience manager - David Moyes would be absolutely perfect for them. He'd bring Fellaini with him, possibly Baines, get a decent keeper, sort the defence out, and get Arteta firing again. He'd be worth £5m a season easily.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Mon 18 Feb 2013, 9:50 am

Arsenal will not win the Champions League. Chelsea at least had leaders in there team, tell me who is Arsenal's leaders who will lead them to the final? Wilshere?

Moyes would be great for Arsenal but I personally don't see it happening. Maybe they'd make a run at Mourinho? #optimistic

by Marky Mon 18 Feb 2013, 9:53 am

Can't believe it, was considering selling Mateo Kovacic for his lawyers fee of £3.5m to raise money, and I check his TM value and since the lawyers were done last week his value has gone up to £10.5m Shocked

by GSC Mon 18 Feb 2013, 9:54 am

Little bit of revolutionist history. L'Arse wouldn't be in the position where no trophies for however many years is a big disappointment without Wenger

Arsenal have leaders. And they don't sleep with their teammates' wives either.

Vermaelen, if he ever gets fit, is a great leader. Wilshere will be captain very soon. Even Theo has a bit of 'come on lads' about him. And Cazorla too, a bit.

Admittedly they're not Lampard and Terry, but I don't see it as a pre-requisite for success. City won the title last year and I wouldn't classify them as having any leaders, per se.

by GSC Mon 18 Feb 2013, 9:59 am

Also Terry did a fine job of leading Chelsea for the final and half the 2nd leg in Barca.

by Guest Mon 18 Feb 2013, 10:00 am

Haha, boom! And in the Moscow final too Laugh

by sodhat Mon 18 Feb 2013, 10:02 am

Well he led the celebrations pretty well, for a guy who missed the biggest night of his clubs history

by GSC Mon 18 Feb 2013, 10:03 am

He was fresh though soddy. No 120 mins of football on those legs

Didn't Chelsea win the CL in spite of Terry last year

No, but what with all his teammates on the pitch he must have been knackered from giving all their spouses a going over.

Adrenaline does a lot for you. Bet he slept like a baby that night

I was thinking that

But looking at the list, there are a whole bunch of Euro Division luminaries on there

by **Afro** Mon 18 Feb 2013, 10:22 am

I'm sure someone must have hacked my account. There is no way I can have done 15,000+ posts, especially when I took a few months out.

There are even posts from the hacker bigging up Ranocchia and sparking a bidding frenzy Whistle

Well I took 21 months out and I've worked myself up to 133rd Euro Division Homepage XLIX - Page 11 3559488474

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Mon 18 Feb 2013, 10:30 am

Vermaelen a leader? Come off it.

I'll 100% definatively say here that Arsenal will not win the Champions League this year. Heck they won't even get past Bayern. If Mr Wenger is still there manager next year I'll be amazed.

Yes GSC I take the point about Wenger. But it'll be 8 seasons without a trophy. 8 seasons. Even Liverpool have won something in that period. Heck Bradford still might!

by Guest Mon 18 Feb 2013, 11:33 am

You should order them mate, let's see what you think of this lot.

By the way after you forgot Valentine's Day, I have a date with another man tonight. Deal with it.

by FIFA Diva Mon 18 Feb 2013, 11:34 am

by sodhat Mon 18 Feb 2013, 11:44 am

They can't be in actual order because Olly is 16th

He'd be at best around 35-40.

Just because nobody would accept my anti-football style. You stuck up bar stewards

by Trebs Mon 18 Feb 2013, 11:49 am

Viva, you've missed Zebra off the list. Surely he's done a good job since joining and deserves a place?

I've no problem with anti-football, but you can't say that you are greater than luminaries such as Bull, or PINEAPPLEHEAD.

Azzy - do you subscribe to Premier Sports for the NHL?

by **Afro** Mon 18 Feb 2013, 11:53 am

He didn't actually say what they were the best 40 at.

If it was based on ability to keep people who don't care, updated on Norwich City, Olly would be clear at the top. In fact when he first joined up, he would have gone straight in at 1, 2 and 3 Wink

by Guest Mon 18 Feb 2013, 11:56 am

Soddy - never heard of Premier Sports. After the lockout I decided no coverage for me, I just rely on NHL.com highlights this year. Of course, come playoff time I'll back down on that and find me a subscription...

by cherriesfna Mon 18 Feb 2013, 11:57 am

Premier sports seem to be the rights holders in the UK, and they don't have HD, and thus suck. Plus I can't imagine wanting to pay for yet more sports channels will go down so well.

I have seen NHL Gamecenter which seems to be the same as NFL gamepass. I.e. all the games live on PC, and available to go back and watch at my leisure. Have to see if they do it for UK people though.

We play your mob next young man. I hope you are prepared to be Becchiofied Cool

by sodhat Mon 18 Feb 2013, 12:15 pm

Has anyone ever been served by an English person in Starbucks?

Not a knock on them at all, just seems they attracted a euro-heavy workforce

by **Afro** Mon 18 Feb 2013, 12:18 pm

Well he couldn't score for Leeds against a very poor Everton performance earlier this season. He was fairly anonymous and looked every inch a Championship striker, so I can imagine there are other Norwich players who will be more threat

by GSC Mon 18 Feb 2013, 12:19 pm

I'm getting a free Nero's later Very Happy

by Guest Mon 18 Feb 2013, 12:19 pm

And Becchio was dreadful in that 0-0 last time out. Woeful. I think he's the classic yo-yo player, not good enough for the Prem but great at that slightly lower level (James Beattie-esque)

I'm not sure I can pinpoint a real threat from Norwich. Seems to be set pieces or Pilkington to me.

It says a lot for the spirit of the club though, because I really wouldn't think that squad is capable of Premier League survival on paper.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Mon 18 Feb 2013, 12:23 pm

I wouldnt judge him off the Fulham game considering the service he got was absolutely abysmal. Literally we just punted it to Hangeland everytime. No striker bar a few will be able to better Hangeland in the air.

by Guest Mon 18 Feb 2013, 12:24 pm

I thought I saw him miss an easy chance Whistle
