im getting sick of raping Liverpool each time we play

Felt sorry for steven gerrard, surrounded by infadels wearing liverpool shirts.

His goal was pick of the bunch.

Fabregas is unreal, what a player he is and will be for years to come.

quote:

Benitez apologises for hammering Manager Rafael Benitez apologised to Liverpool supporters after watching the Reds humbled in the Carling Cup 6-3 at Anfield by a young Arsenal team. A stunned Benitez said: "It is a bad night for us and all we can say is sorry to the supporters. "Now is not the time to point the finger or look to blame people. We win together and we lose together. "We must forget about it as soon as possible and look ahead to Watford on Saturday and the Champions League." The result comes just three days after Arsenal dumped Liverpool out of the FA Cup at Anfield and Benitez's side were booed off by a furious crowd. The Spaniard added: "The problem was conceding four goals in the first half. "When you are faced with a scoreline like that it is very difficult to manage the game. "We needed an early goal in the second half but couldn't find it. When we did score Arsenal had the quality to keep the ball and make it difficult for us." Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger lavished praise on his young charges and said he thinks the incredible display shows that the Gunners have a bright future. "These lads have worked very hard to integrate and to do what we want them to do," said Wenger. "They have shown great mental strength and I am highly tempted to play many of them in the semi-final against Spurs. "They have earned the right maybe to play in the next round. It is a very satisfying night. "I feel there is a continuity inside the club, and we feel we have worked very, very hard. "The future of the club is very promising. We aim to keep these players together and keep the spirit right. Then we have a great chance for the future."

I think Arsenal is the only team in the world who plays this fantastic whenever they step up, together with Barcelona when they're really at the top of their game.

The difference though is that Arsenal always entertains the crowd and their fans, no matter if they don't score any goals. The finishing has cost them a higher position in the league, they've been playing great against the top 3 teams so far this season:

They won over Manchester United at Old Trafford with 0:1, They managed to hammer teams like Tottenham (Even though they're not on the top of their game yet) and Liverpool with 3:0 on Emirates Stadium.

Their problem has been the finishing all season long, and when they finally start scoring again, they're unstoppable.

Last 3 games:

Arsenal vs. Charlton 4:0
Liverpool vs. Arsenal 1:3
Liverpool vs. Arsenal 3:6

The last game without stars like Thierry Henry and van Persie who usually score in every game they play. So, this is a major achievement!

Originally posted by The_G0dfather Arsenal is really loaded with class, Van Persie, Rosicky, Henry, Fabregas (why o why did barça sell him )... This squad is certainly as good or even better than their champions teams from 3 to 4 years ago, so its weird to see them struggling that much. Maybe not completely balanced yet, dont know.

the problem is there defence there an attacking team and forget about defending sometimes just look at the score they hammered liverpool but still let 3 goals in.

Looked like an entertaining game. Atleast now us Milan fans can hang shit on Liverpool now. Liverpool were just outclassed and looked very shabby despite the 3 goals scored, espec that last goal the defence didnt even man Baptista...I think the defence is where Liverpool have their weakness.

Expert analysis that...

What that CARLING CUP match showed is that Arsenal have a superior second choice side to Liverpool's. With the exception of Aurelio, the backline we played is not our first choice. On Saturday when we played our first choice eleven (apart from Dudek) we completely dominated possesion but didn't have the quality up front to convert that to any more than one goal.

Everyone seems to have it out for Liverpool on these boards. Don't understand it really. All the Barca fans to be smug at the minute. You are obviously favourites, but there are some factors that lead me to believe we can win...

Couldnt agree more with Zoran and Raveed, this is the most talented side in Europe when it comes to youngsters. Arsenal should consider themselves very lucky even if they aint winning anything atm. There's a reason why Wenger bought Rosicky, he completely fits into the planning of this team.
