Giroud really needs to stop cutting at such a sharp angle. He doesn't have the footwork to get the shot on target afterwards. But I admire his work rate, he was motoring for the full 90 minutes.

Very interesting that Theo did not get on when AOC cramped up.

But yes this was very atypical of Arsenal, Liverpool played beautifully (except Stevie G...fish out of water performance in this squad), but we nicked two counter-attack goals. Podolski looked worlds better after he scored, and Cazorla? Midfield maestro; feels good to see someone so accomplished with the ball in the squad again. Just makes me miss Fabregas a little.

On to the stupid international break!

It's good we still have Spanish midfielders in the squad, though ( Cazorla + Arteta ).

I like Spanish style of passing/movement...

Giroud def. needs time to gel w/ the rest of the team. Podolski less so.

Barcelona's Cesc Fabregas fed up with being subbed for - ESPNFC

When an Arsenal match isn't on FSC, I go downtown (Denver) to a British Pub to watch. You might try to find a place similar that will have all the games playing. There are a number of channels that play premier league + other Euro leagues.

That's pretty interesting. He sounds pissed off, but said he won't show that in front of his teammates or coach. . . hmhmmm

I don't like watching sporting events in bars or whatever.

cow · 09-05-2012, 04:58 PM

Understandable. I do prefer to be by myself, most times. It's much easier to pay attention to the goings on.

phelan · 09-05-2012, 05:00 PM

well, it's one thing to go to the bar with randoms sitting there watching with you. but when you're with a group of gooners, it's pretty fun. lots of chanting going on with the los angeles group i was a part of for a while.

I wish I had a group to go watch matches with here in Phoenix. I don't think any bar opens up at 5:30a (early matches) or 8:00a (late matches).

I tend to just watch'em at home.

Other sports though, love going to the bar. Keeps me sane, otherwise I'd yell at the TV.

Watching a game with a group of people chanting for the same team in a bar is pretty fun!

For some reason, Fox Soccer Channel doesn't have Serie a anymore...

Envy you guys.

BeINHD carries Serie A & La Liga.

I'm a couch potato more than a bar fly myself.

I wish we got better coverage of European futbol in the states, too.

Serie A was incredibly fun to watch last season.
