Lol. Liverpool linked with Clichy today. He's stalling on new contract. Juve and Liverpool interested.

Juventus and Liverpool will lead the chase for Arsenal's 25-year-old defender Gael Clichy, if the French international decides not to renew his contract with the Gunners.
Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli lasted only 57 minutes in the 2-0 defeat at Dynamo Kiev on Thursday after suffering an allergic reaction to grass. Manager Roberto Mancini said: "He had an allergy and his face was swollen."

We'll do them at anfield. We can't seem to win away in europe
Missed Suarez (cup tied ), Agger, Stevie, Aurellio tonight. That midfield was pretty poor. On the plus side Carroll looks good, hope our hoofing CB's don't all start playing complete route 1 football when he's on the pitch. We desperately need some pace and some wingers in the team soon.

Spent fuck all.
Chasing for Prem
Still in FA Cup (just)
CL spot pretty much guarenteed.
I'd be fucking embarrased having spent £500billion tbh.

Is this any comfort to Ben J?
GUNNERS... THEN GONERS
Dear Martin. I've been thinking. Last year we got knocked out by Barcelona and they went and lost in the next round. The year before we lost to Man United and they got beat in the Final. It seems that knocking out Arsenal is bad luck for your next round. Do the statistics back this up? Steve (Arsenal fan)
MARTIN SAYS: Looking at the statistics, there is some truth to what you are saying. In each of the last seven seasons the team that has knocked Arsenal out of the Champions League has been knocked out themselves in the next round - apart from in 2005/06 when Arsenal lost the final to Barcelona and there was no next round to play!
Furthermore, eight seasons ago Arsenal were knocked out in the second group stage and the two teams that went through - Valencia and Ajax - both got knocked out. The only team to have beaten Arsenal in a knock-out round of the Champions League and won their next tie was Valencia as they reached the final back in 2000/01.
Here's a list of teams to have knocked Arsenal out of the Champions League and how they fared in the next round. Note, when they were knocked out in a group stage we have considered the team or teams that went through ahead of them:
Season Knocked out Arsenal Round Result in next round
2009/10 Barcelona Quarter-Final Lost to Inter Milan
2008/09 Man Utd Semi-Final Lost to Barcelona
2007/08 Liverpool Quarter-Final Lost to Chelsea
2006/07 PSV Eindhoven Last 16 Lost to Liverpool
2005/06 Barcelona Final n/a
2004/05 Bayern Munich Last 16 Lost to Chelsea
2003/04 Chelsea Quarter-Final Lost to Monaco
2002/03 Valencia
Ajax Second Group Stage Lost to Inter
Lost to AC Milan
So who are Barcelona going out to in the next round? Spurs?

Is it any comfort for you that so far Chicharito has the best strike rate in Premier League history. 1 goal per 96.2 minutes
Obviously it helps he has only played a small amount of time compared to others but still good shit.
