There are some reports(from trusted Arsenal blogs,not THE SUN)that Fabregas will be made captain against Chelsea next week.

ok so be it..i guess its enough of 'guess the captain'..

 

[red_devil]

i dont care about Arsenal captain... heck i wouldn't mind Arsene Wenger himself playing for Arsenal. All i hope for is Arsenal to beat Chelsea

We are 8 points (with a game in hand) behind Chelsea and as long as they lose, i really dont care much !!

PS:- 1 question : how big a role does the captain have in football ?? AFAIK, it is certainly not even anywhere near the role of the captain in cricket.
Managers make the substitutions, managers do the team talk at half time etc ...so its basically a managers team. Since Arsene Wenger isn't going to leave, it shouldn't make much difference as to who the captain would be.

The role of the captain is to keep the dressing room united and protect his players.Sadly Gallas has done exactly the opposite

I agree, as a captain, Gallas hasn't done what he's supposed to do. Last year's game against Birmingham was the turning point of the season for the Gunners. Eduardo got injured, and Gallas fumed on the pitch, bore holes in one of the adboards. That put down the team morale.

But still, I don't see how Fabregas can be a good captain. I just can't imagine him with the captain's armband. He looks so intimidated on the pitch. He looks as if he may cry any moment.
If I was Wenger, I'd probably make Almunia the captain again.

Anyway, I can't wait for derby day, I want to watch Terry dominating Wenger's kids when they come forward to attack.

Care to explain what it's all about?
I'm too impatient right now.

Fabregas' leadership qualities and how he protects his teammates.

 

[Arsenal_Gunners]

You remember how he beat the crap out of Lampard in CC final?

 

[Cool Joe]

lol

He's a coward really. He wouldn't dare touch Kieran Richardson.

1-0 down

 

[red_devil]

half time :

man city 1- arsenal 0

 

[Arsenal_Gunners]

3-0
Humiliation

Liverpool and Chelsea drawing are some consolation,I hope that Wenger solves the dressing room problems quickly.

 

[Kl@w-24]

Newcastle United came in a bus and parked the bus in front of goal. Utterly frustrating for us. Still top of the pile though!

Arsenal are out of the title race, methinks.

 

[tuxybuzz]

Arsenal are definitely out..
and 0-0..so many chances..so many of them..i'd have been less surprised had it been 10-0..
but we're still top..thanks to fulham..

and yes who finally was Arsenal Captain??

 

[Arsenal_Gunners]

Almunia,Fabregas was suspended for this game.

 

[skeletor]

Crap...

 

[Cool Joe]

Once again, 0-0 with so many missed chances. I've been saying this all along, we make many chances, but we fail to convert them. .
