Jack Wilshere - Nice post match quote re Brighton....

[JamesAndTheGiantHead]

Getting the excuses in early doors, Jack?

 

[Gullys Cats]

Jack!

 

[Bladders]

How's he made the Arsenal team? Don't recall him playing in Ligue 1 or 2

I got it first time around.

I shoud have stepped in earlier before you were double whooshed.

 

[Notters]

Oh jesus f***ing christ.

WHOOOOOSH.

f*** me.

 

[dingodan]

f*** me.

Bend over then.

 

[Puppet Master]

Bend over then.

I saw him first

 

[Seasidesage]

Wiltshire? Give me Bridcutt any day....

 

[SirElliotBennett]

Will Arsene play his 2nd string though maybe being over confident

Bloody hope so!

 

[Farehamseagull]

Will be good to see Bridcutt up against Wilshere, should be one of the highlights. I love watching Wilshere play, without trying to sound too much like Ray Wilkins, that young man is a proper player.

Think he also labelled Gus as a great manager in that interview. Knows his football does Jack.

They played a full strength team at Bradford, can't see them coming with a 2nd string to play us.

Normally I'd agree, but they have quite a fixture list over the next couple of weeks...

20/01 Chelsea v. Arsenal
English Premier League
Sun @ 13:30

23/01 Arsenal v. West Ham United
English Premier League
Wed @ 19:45

26/01 Brighton & Hove Albion v. Arsenal
English FA Cup · Fourth Round
Sat @ 15:00

30/01 Arsenal v. Liverpool
English Premier League
Wed @ 19:45

I thoroughly expect some squad rotation against us (which can only be a good thing?)

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Does anyone else remember the Seagulls over London meeting, shortly after Gus first came to the Albion? The one where he admitted that his fantasy Cup game would be his Albion versus Wenger's Arsenal? Two teams playing possession football, constantly across the pitch, with neither team ever getting the ball anywhere near their opponent's penalty area. 0-0 guaranteed.

 

[HastingsSeagull]

I think it's a whooosh for you my friend. Let me break it down for you. I appreciate half our team are Spanish so obviously, in a jokingly way he's not good enough for Brighton. So that's when I counter with, jokingly, how come he's plays for Arsenal he's never played Ligue 1 or 2... Which!!! If you know your football is the French league... Where Arsene Wenger signs all his players. I hope this helps young fellow

Thank you for clearing that up! I'm sure I wasn't the only one who was completely confuzzled by the post

 

[Brovion]

The guy is an amazing player and I for one can't wait to see him at the Amex.

They played a full strength team at Bradford, can't see them coming with a 2nd string to play us.

Naa, it's bound to be a weakened team. After all, no one cares about the FA Cup, right? Its FAR more important to qualify for the Champions' League, that's what they always say.

 

[BUTTERBALL]

They went full strength against Swansea so clearly thy are taking the FA cup seriously.

 

[Commander]

At his peril.

I've noticed you being a bit more positive recently. What's happened?

 

[Green Cross Code Man]

A perfectly executed DRFwP by Dan Gleeballs.

What on earth is a 'DRFwP'?

They'll play a full strength team. The FA Cup is their only big chance of a trophy this season.

 

[house your seagull]

Is it a cliche that 'Brighton play nice football'? ... Is it a given now? it's a reputation! Even though the vast majority would never have seen us play, and if they had on TV, we were probably not really at our best.

Perhaps this reputation will be stitched into the fabric of the club - like West Ham and Spurs - for years to come and we'll all go ape shit when Allardyce comes and manages us.

I was watching the Arsenal Swans match and they are both great teams, though Swansea's punchy tiki-taka 2.0 is what interests me. Pass and move but threatening and fast, like Dortmund showed against City which blew my mind.

What on earth is a 'DRFwP'?

It's a sex position where the woman (usually a pygmy amputee) has to lay down and pretend to be dead with her mouth open, while the man pisses on her and gives her a roman shower simultaneously

 

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

From our point of view I hope they DON'T play...but from a football fans point of view I am DESPERATE to see Cazorla and Wilshire grace the middle of the amex pitch.

I imagine Gus's flairometer will go into overload.
