What a shocking way to treat a manager.

It goes without saying how a bad a decision that is by Reading...

Bayern Munich will be without Ribéry, Schweinsteiger, Boateng & Badstuber against Arsenal, while Robben is a doubt.

If Arsenal go out against Bayern, there will be no English side in the last 8 of the Champions Leagues for the first time since 1996.

Come on The Arsenal, fly the flag!

Yes its a bugbear of mine in that we get our young players to play too many games when they have not developed enough physically as a player when they are younger.

[thenry]

thats what happens when you do the same thing over and over again with ultimately the same results, insanity. every man and his dog knew all we needed was a player or two extra in 08 but such is the mans deluded state and lack of senior figures around him to tell him to sign those players he was instead allowed to run into a circle of frustration, only now its set well within the club and no one seems to know how to get out of the mess. fools! burn out the classy players instead until they get fed up and leave.
