Arsenal 4 - 0

Denilson more of a key player than Arshavin not likely

 

[Twizzle]

this one should be a no brainer

Is McGeady really a key player for Celtic?

The Australia-Ireland friendly was the third time I've watched him, and all three times he's been sh*tehouse?

 

[BWNB]

Arsenal 2-0

Why, exactly...the best teams in the world come to Celtic Park and fail to get a result

He's good for Celtic, rubbish for Ireland

Arsenal put 6 past Everton who are better quality than Celtic

Celtic will probably play a tougher, more physical game than Everton and Arsenal traditionally dont enjoy that.

So he's just like McDonald then?

 

[RedVGooner]

Arsenal 2-1 winners, goals from Van Persie and Arshavin

:lol::lol:

1. That's geniused logic...does that mean Hull are better than Everton because they lost by less to a better team than Arsenal?

2. Everton are nowhere near Celtic

:crazyenilson?

Arshavin, Eduardo, Gallas and Rosicky are all above imo.

Should be an interesting game.

Arsenal 2-1.

 

[Bumble]

Eh, I already had 2 flashy attacking players in there with Cesc and RVP, Denilson is very valuable to the team...any of Eduardo, Rosicky, RVP or Arshavin can be benched with the others taking up the load. Denilson is your best box to box player by a mile, though.

Got up for it this morning, was worth it. A tough place to win at and not many English have won there but to come away with a 2-0 win is great and we should comfortably get through.
