i've already admitted it though. if nothing comes arsenal's way this year, we lose cesc. and i'd really, REALLY like to see that not happen.

wenger has already admitted it's time for this group to start winning some silverware. they're not kids anymore. but if the team stays together in the next year or two, with chelsea's age and manchester arguably fossilized (except for cheechareeetoe), arsenal can be the big name in the EPL for a long time.

I dont know. Chelsea and Man U are so successful they could always bring in young talent to their team. It will be difficult for Arsenal since they havent shown capability to bring in any trophies

I don't usually read comments on articles, but for some reason decided to read the ones on Lassana Diarra possibly joining Spurs. The following comment made me lol.

Why would 8.5m for Diarra be impossible? You don't rate a players value based on who they play for. You base it on what they have to offer, and in the case of Diarra, it's not much. Real Madrid spent waaaay over the top for him when they paid Pompey 18m for him. I still remember having a good laugh at that when I heard it. I could only imagine how that initial conversation went...

Ring, ring...

Hello..

Harry Redknapp please...

Speaking...

This is Real Madrid. We want to offer you 15m for Lass Diara...

15m for who???

Okay 'Arry, you're a tough cookie. We'll give you 18m. Final offer...

(Redknapp covers the phone and yells to his assistant) Hey Billy, Real Madrid want to give us 18m for Lass f***ing Diara?

Are they f***ing bonkers?

(Harry chuckles)

Okay Real Madrid, you've player your cards well. We hate to lose him (chuckle, chuckle), but for 18m quid, I can't really turn you away (snicker, snicker).

Okay then Harry, it's a deal. I'll fax you the papers in the morning. Good-bye...

Hey Billy, we just sold Lass Diara to Real Ma' F***ing Drid for 18m quid. Let's call Alex and head down to the track and celebrate. What a bunch of f***ing morons...

Redknapp keen on Diarra, Crouch not for sale - Transfers - ESPN Soccernet

La Ligabigspenders

spurs 4 young boyz 0 suckaz. bet your knees are shaking...

[cow]

Not particularly. I'm hoping with Spurs worried about Europe, St. Tottie's Day will come even earlier this year.

[phelan]

lol Sp*rs had their way with Young Boys. Now can they stand up against the real men?

Pun obviously intended lol

All this EPL talk...*yawn*

[phelan]

Wow, CL draw is done, I was JUST thinking yesterday it'd be really weird to get Arsenal matched against Shakhtar Donetsk, and see Eduardo again in opposing colors...

It'll be good to see him again, I'm still bitter over his basically career-ending injury at the hands of rugby players...er...right. At least the rest of the group doesn't look bad. Braga went nuts last season, if they're on top of their game, look out. But not worried about Belgrade.

I hope Inter shits on the Sp*rs. Barca should have a cakewalk through group stages. I bet blu is amused by Bayern - Roma. Totti vs. Schweiny! Who will you side with, bwu?!

My early picks (bold wins, italics runner up):
Group A: Inter, Werder Bremen, Sp*rs, Twente
Group B: Lyon, Benfica, Schalke, Tel-Aviv
Group C: ManUre, Valencia, Rangers, Bursaspor
Group D: Barca, Panathinaikos, Copenhagen, Rubin Kazan
Group E: Bayern, Roma, Basel, Cluj
Group F: Chelsea, Marseille, Moscow, Zilina
Group G: AC Milan, Real Madrid, Ajax, Auxerre
Group H: Arsenal, Shakhtar Donetsk, Braga, Partizan

Weird that Barca was matched up with Rubin Kazan again.

Mourinho needs one more year to turn Real Madrid into a force in the CL.
