The Goon Thread

A lot of players peak in their younger years and never develop as you think they would.

I'll go out on a limb and say that Wheelchair will be playing at a team like Everton or Saudi Sportswashing Machine in a couple years.

I hope he does a Frimpong and ends up in the championship
 
Jose Mourinho called 'boring bully' over Arsene Wenger comments

Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho is a "bully" engaging in "boring" mind games, Arsenal legend Bob Wilson has said.

On Friday, Mourinho responded to Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger's claims that managers were playing down their Premier League chances because they were "afraid to fail" by calling the Frenchman "a specialist in failure".

"I think at it's best it's disrespectful, at it's worst despicable," former Gunners goalkeeper Wilson told BBC Radio 5 live. "I find him boring in the extreme."

"I think it's personal," continued Wilson, who played more than 300 times for Arsenal and twice for Scotland.

"He is a hugely talented, amazing manager but a self-publicist and it's mainly inaccurate.

"To say West Ham play 19th-Century football, to give [Emirates Marketing Project boss] Manuel Pellegrini the abuse he has: this is a weekend when we honour a gent - Tom Finney - I don't like bullies."

Mourinho has repeatedly played down his side's title chances, despite their position at the top of the league, and has likened the Blues to a "little horse", not yet ready to be title challengers.

Wenger, who last won a trophy with Arsenal in 2005, said that in ruling Chelsea out of the race, Mourinho was setting up a position from which he could not fail.

Mourinho said: "If he is right and I am afraid of failure it is because I didn't fail many times. Eight years without silverware, that's failure."

Wilson, an ever present in Arsenal's double winning side of 1970-71, says Wenger has "opened eyes and ears" during 17 and a half years in England and is frustrated by Mourinho's "dismissive" comments.

It's not the first time he has singled Arsene out," Wilson, 72, told the Sportsweek programme. "A few years ago he called him a voyeur, which is a disgusting claim - albeit thankfully with a belated apology.

"I like people who have within them some humility as well. [Former Liverpool manager] Bill Shankly was in his day, like Jose Mourinho. He took every opportunity to psyche you out. He would get at you, but in a lovely, sort of competitive way."

Pellegrini, 60, responded to Mourinho's theory that Emirates Marketing Project are the "big horse" in the title race by highlighting Chelsea's recent spending in the transfer window.

But Mourinho used his next news conference to clarify figures and question the maths used by the City boss.

City beat Chelsea in the FA Cup fifth round on Saturday and Lord Coe, who was also on Sportsweek, defended Mourinho's recent exchanges with managers.

"All he's doing is answering the questions that he gets asked," said Lord Coe, a Chelsea supporter. "I'm not sure these are mind games, I know they're not mind games.

"He's answering the questions he's being asked and he's actually doing it with honesty."
 
Mourinho represents all that is wrong with football today, hope he forever stays well clear of Tottenham. Everything Wilson says in that article is spot on.
 
well said Bob Wilson=D>....its about time people started to put Cnutinho back in his place

Olivier Giroud ‏@_OlivierGiroud_
I apologise to my wife, family and friends and my manager, team-mates and Arsenal fans.

Olivier Giroud ‏@_OlivierGiroud_
I now have to fight for my family and for my club and obtain their forgiveness. Nothing else matters at the moment.

hahahahaha brilliant, love the fact he never got fined as he said the sun lied, then bang, piccies the next week, unlucky bell-end
 
Can see them going out of the cup today and the CL within 3 weeks meaning no distractions in trying to win the league, not that bothered though
 
really not good today...and suprise suprise they are at home again in the next round.........

bit frustrating that the poorer team won but there you go........

perhaps they will get their hands on some silverware this season....in terms of the fa cup we had our chance and blew it.........oh they are so odious the lot of em...still hope everything crashes around them.
 
He thought they were bluffing obviously and wanted to try to keep his Mrs and family happy. Shouldn't have done the dirty in the first place
 
Hmmm...hopefully this is just prolonging the inevitable.....


For those who watched the game, how did Sanogo look? Did he deputise well? Would we worry if he started against us instead of douche-bag Giroud?
 
Btw, which reporter broke the Giroud-affair story? Is the reporter known to support a particular club??

Wondering if this will destabilise Giroud from here on in[-o<
 
Would you take Arsenal winning the FA cup if it distracted them enough for us to pip them to 4th place?

If it's the Sun you'll probably find out that the girl tipped them off and they will publish a kiss and tell next week.

He's a handful. Big strong and mobile. Looks to be lacking technically but they looked better for having someone who looks to run in behind. Giroud is turd
