Beautiful and a fine reason why passing the ‘eye test’ matters.
Wiltord like what the fuck? Nesta popped up like a ghost and him as hard as a freight train. This kind of defending really is an Art.
Says a lot about Messi that even the best defenders have to resort to being hacks.
You’re right.
I remember the season when we won the League title with Graham and only let in eighteen goals, with three of them in one game, against Chelsea.
From set pieces, we were so well organised and it was with the same defence that Wenger also won the title with, that was assembled by Graham for around 1m.
Probably the most efficient and longest lasting defence in Europe.

13 September 1969, Burnley 0 Arsenal 1, 9th after 9 games, same result on Saturday would be good.
14/9/1929, Arsenal 6 Burnley 1, 2nd after 5 games, same result on Saturday too much to hope for…
Just scoring two in a game would be a start
Never knew someone named bushayes existed on this forum
Guessing he’s from Shephards bush and then moved to Hayes or vice versa. Or maybe named after the 207 bus which goes down the Uxbridge road to Hayes.
Me and my mate used to call that bus the Free07 to white City.
