2010/2011 Season, EPL, Goodstuff

Who are you trying to fool? Grow up, Szczesny!

When I was still a little kid, me and my friends always have the same kind of expression every time we play football. When we dribble the ball… it will be just like Maradona. We also as skillful as Zico and…all of our shoot will make Peter Shilton scared to death.

We still a child back then and nobody can stop us to dream on being the top footballer. But..time by time we know that everything is simply just a dream and we start to take it as a joke.

It is actually the different between MAN & CHILDREN!!

So, when Arsenal goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny believes it was a mental battle in which he beat Wayne Rooney, I don’t know either I should laugh or not.
It is a prove on how childish the Arsenal players could be.

“I did prepare myself for a Rooney penalty before the game. I actually decided to try to delay him, show him my presence and hope for the best. Maybe my presence put him off and made him miss it. It’s obviously a mental battle between the goalkeeper and the striker, a psychological battle, so I tried him and stand off my line for as long as possible, until the referee put me on the line. Then I made myself big and he missed.”

Can you believe it, that’s all it takes to cause Wayne Rooney to balloon the ball over the bar.. You don’t even have to dive the right way when he kicks it!

Evra is correct once again… United vs Arsenal will always be the match between man & children!

Evra mocks Arsenal again!!

Manchester United defender Patrice Evra has taunted Arsenal before Monday’s visit to Old Trafford by saying that Arsenal may be nice to watch but they are not proper title contenders.

“For me, Arsenal is a football training centre. You watch the match, you enjoy it, but are you going to win a title afterwards? That’s what people remember. It has been five years since they won anything and for a big club like Arsenal, that is a crisis.

“I hear them being compared to Barcelona but people in 20 years’ time aren’t going to remember Arsenal’s football. We can lose against them but at the end of the day, what is there for Arsenal? There is nothing. There are no trophies, there is nothing. Our real enemy is Chelsea. We are more concerned with Chelsea’s results than those of Arsenal, even if we know Arsenal are a great team who can beat Chelsea, us or anyone.”

It is not the first time Evra has mocked the Londoners. In 2009, the Frenchman described a Champions League tie as “11 men against 11 children” when United beat Arsenal 3-1 at the Emirates stadium and knocked them out of Europe.
