As usual Lloris shows why he's number 1 in the Spur's hearts. He was their defence. A veritable wall
Also he looks like a model. Of sadness. And beauty.

Poldi looking like a sad panda
:(

A minute's silence for the latest Asian plane that's disappeared into the ether

Lol, aquaecolore described as such, "and Lloris and his black eyes of death" :D

[aquaecolore]

Lovely post, Jazzy!

A minor correction: Gus Poyet played for Chelsea and the Spurs. He was never an Arsenal player.

A minute's silence for the latest Asian plane that's disappeared into the ether.

QPR has a special connection to the incident. Their owner, Tony Fernandes, also owns AirAsia (the airline of the plane that went missing).

I feel like there's a lot ~tension~ in this picture.

cheers for the correction

[jazzypom]

Will amend. When it comes to these posts, I never get everything right! One day! *firm fist* Thanks for the detail re: the correction to QPR and the South Asian airline.

Harry Kane is supposedly in fine tether, and looking to be knocking on the National Team door fairly soon. So yeah, tension indeed. There's supposedly the fact that the North- South clubs have tensions in the NT dressing room (or used to? I think they're trying to get out of that). It can't be as bad as Joe Hart and Jack Wilshire- or can it? :S

RE: cheers for the correction

[the4thjuliek]

Yeah, it would criminal if Kane didn't get called up to the NT. People are creaming themselves over Ross Barkley but he doesn't show the kind of promise that Kane does.

Lol, Jack and Joe Hart were certainly close XD

RE: cheers for the correction

[marsyke]

Ross kinda disappaered of the radar a bit with Everton struggling.
It'll be interesting to see what happens with them. If they can make the leap into the top teams.

Thanks OP!

Love a picture post!

Pablo Zabelta got a terrible injury. Wrapped his head up in a stocking and played on
Thank god you added this commentary on Zabaleta having an injury, because I laughed and was readying my rant on yet another shit footballer haircut!! I saw it and was like wtf is the new trend for 12th century monks?! Hope his head does get better though, what happened?

I only caught the Arsenal match yesterday - Sanchez is not only a total cutie but a Duracell bunny, he was all over that pitch like a rash yesterday. It's nice to see a player really giving it their all the entire time, but boy is gonna get injured if he is constantly played. Not that Wenger will ever rest him!

I'm on a date with an Arsenal fan tonight, so I'm pretty sure they will be a topic of conversation, not sure crying at a restaurant is ideal when talking about my own team!!

Re: Thanks OP!

[jazzypom]

No worries! I like doing picture posts, but I'm tethering on my phone's internet, so things are that slower to load, et al. I had to divide the posts in two.

Zaba bumped his head against a team mates. I want to say Mangala. The lowdown is here

Wenger has tried to rest Sanchez to be fair. He gave him some days off, and Sanchez rocked up to training on his off days. You got the feeling that at Barca he just didn't play as much as he wanted to, and the fact that Wenger does, and Arsenal seems to be about everyone mucking in, so yeah, Sanchez is happy! Poldi likes the club but he isn't getting first team minutes, so you can ask the Arsenal fan his feelings about Poldi going off to AC Milan.

I'm supposed to be coming to London in Feb, we can meet up and cry over our team's misfortunes together. Hah.

RE: Re: Thanks OP!

[jesscp]

Poor Zaba! I worry so much about head injuries with footballers, just so worrying.

Sanchez probably comes to trainings everyday as I think his English is not great?! So on days off he probably can't communicate well enough to do anything?! His dedication is top class but he needs to be careful, he's so full on, if he was out injured I would worry for arsenal, as I know all the big hopes are pinned on Ozil coming back, but hmm. I'm still not convinced he is the big arsenal saviour.

I hope if Poldi goes he gets proper playing time and really shows Wenger up.

Oh wow, what will you be doing in London?! Ha yes we can both cry in the corner of a dodgy pub at the state of Liverpool and Dortmund!!

Re: Re: Thanks OP!

[jazzypom]

I come to London to shop twice a year, because freaking Uniqlo refuses to get a shop north of London (they call London 'North' and their most 'Northern shop' ._.) so I come down and get some tops and bottoms that last me for ages. Topshop is a bit too rabidly hip, Monsoon a bit too Sex and The City goes Kuwait, River Island not my cup of tea. I like my stuff simple and long lasting, with cunning details and Uniqlo is it for me.

But yeah, we can meet, go to a pub with the light as dim as our spirits and sob in our assigned drinks.

Sanchez says that his English is coming on, to be fair, and I think he has a girlfriend with him right (the one who he cheated on with text messages?) and a couple of dogs. Besides, he's in London, if you're bored in London -with the money he's making- you're not trying hard enough.

I hope if Poldi goes he gets proper playing time and really shows Wenger up. It's AC Milan though. It's not as if their paths will meet with different leagues, etc. But yeah, it's a bit weird buying a player and realising

[marsyke]

great pics!
Kane and Shaw do look a bit similar somehow, don't know why.

Man City gave up a 2 goal lead against Burnley??? Pellegrini won't be happy with that.

Still not sure why Everton cannot get their season on track. Defense, attack?
Oh Arnautovic, I lost track of him when he left Bremen.

Oh Eden you can be so great to watch. Great goal!

[jazzypom]

Yeah, Man City got two goals in the first 45 minutes and then their defence went missing in the last 45 minutes! Burnley were on fire though, they really played well against Liverpool, and stepped it up a notch against Man City. Their midfield was electric, and their strikers hungry.

[marsyke]

Good for them, they desperately need the points!
