Bolton vs. Arsenal match thread

he's baaaaaaaaaaaaaack

Bolton Wanderers vs. Arsenal not wanderers
English Premier League Round 23
Kickoff: 3 PM EST, Wednesday, February 1
Reebok Stadium, Horwich, Bolton, UK, Urf
Televisual coverage: Fox Soccer Channel
Form: Bolton DLWWW | Arsenal LWLLW
SBN Bolton Perspective: Lion of Vienna Suite

Ryodinho won't play, but we'll watch anyway. Speaking of which, here are some lineups for your eyes.

ARS: Szczesny; Vermaelen, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Sagna; Song, Arteta, Ramsey; Oxlade-Chamberlain, van Persie, Walcott

subs: Fabianski, Rosicky, Park, Henry, Arshavin, Benayoun, Coquelin

BOL: Bogdan, Steinsson, Knight, Wheater, Ricketts, Eagles, Muamba, Reo-Coker, M Davies, Petrov, Ngog

subs: Jaaskelainen, Tuncay, K Davies, Klasnic, Pratley, Boyata, Riley

Star-divide

While you're waiting, maybe you might like to check out the match preview that Ted posted last night. Seriously though, do that if you haven't yet. Lion of Vienna Suite has one as well, if you care to see how the other half feels about the match. Otherwise, feel free to start the conversation in The Love Below. Or the comments below, depending on whether you feel like actually calling things what they are, rather than shoehorning in references to decade-old rap albums. Keep it nice, at least until the match starts.

COME ON YOU GUNNERS!

By the way

Arsenal reserves are up 1-0 at Swansea; the goal came as Serge Gnabry (German) played in Thomas Eisfeld (new German) who was saved, but the rebound fell to Zak Ansah (not German) who scored.

Eisfeld is wearing yellow boots.

I’m out of here, drinking right now. Don’t have time for another lackluster performance from Wenger, I want some answers tomorrow. Why not sign Gibson, Wenger? The crisis you kids talk about, is the same crisis I predicted at the start of the season, remember? Want another prediction? At this rate Arsenal will finish 10th, that’s a fact.

What’s the point of selling anyone?

The money doesn’t go anywhere. Might as well just keep them. This is fucking ridiculous. What’s your answer now, Wenger? We have all our players except Wilshere and Gervinho, two notable losses, but there is no fucking way we should be losing point to Swansea and Bolton. This team is not good enough, and Wenger is too stubborn to do anything about it.

I was watching on my computer during class on a choppy feed, so I missed parts of the game.

But Arteta looked like shit to me today. Everytime he got the ball he would run diagonal across the pitch, spin around, run the exact opposite direction, and then dump the ball off to Song or a defender. It accomplished nothing.

Something snapped for me today.

The abysmal performances these guys are showing week after week have finally overcome my emotional attachments. Theo can get the fuck off the team and Ramsey can find a spot on the bench. I won’t have any hard feelings towards van Persie when he abandons ship this summer.

Can I ask your thoughts on Wenger taking off Chambo

My mate who is an Arsenal fan said he was the best player on this pitch, and Walcott had missed two one on ones? That is twice he has taken off Chambo when you have needed a goal.

He seems to think Ox isn’t ready to play a full 90 yet, and so he will take him off no matter how well he is playing. I don’t know if that’s true. He doesn’t seem to be tiring more than anyone else, but he’s still young.

He is so direct when he gets the ball too

And his dribbiling is skilled too. Can actually beat a man, instead of Walcott who needs space to knock it into.

He’s fast and as strong as an ox (Excuse the pun)
