Manchester City 4-2 Arsenal – 12/09/09 – (Premier League) 13 September, 2009

It’s just going to have to be a quick match report I’m afraid but we all know what happened anyway, I don’t think you need me to tell you.

For the majority, we were very good and just like two weeks ago we have come away with nothing when we deserved a point at the very least. When Man City went 1-0 up in the first half it was completely against the run of play and apparently it was offside anyway. Almunia should’ve done a lot better but I wasn’t too angry with him.

The goal set us back a bit but we did eventually equalize through a great van Persie effort. When City took the lead for the second time I held my head in my hands. Craig Bellamy it was and it was completely undeserved again. After we’d scored we were all over them, and I mean all over them and I can’t believe we didn’t get a second straight away.

Adebayor made it 3-1 with a header on the break and Wright-Phillipps got the 4th again on the break late in the second half. Rosicky got one back which was good for him, but at 4-2 so late on it looked like a consolation goal. However we had three or four great chances to score, RVP hit the post, Adebayor cleared one off the line, a deflection and a Given save all denying us the route to a comeback. If any of those had gone in we might be sitting here a bit happier today.

So it ended 4-2 and we took 0 points for the two trips to Manchester, not good.

But it’s not the game that anyone’s talking about, it’s him. The biggest, most pathetic, dirty, class-less cunt Adebayor who has taken the headlines. He has shown his true colours and for the remainder of his career life he will be treated like the shit that he is by Arsenal fans. The fans that were once so good to him for his hard work and goals he now has on his back and in his conscience forever. He lied to us, infuriated us and let us down last season but I think the majority just thought, ‘oh whatever just let him be and ruin himself at City.’ Well now he’ll find himself ranked as no.1 most hated ex-Arsenal player souring above David Bentley and Ashley Cole.

At least in my books anyway.

Just look at Gunnerblog’s post today with clips of the two stamping incidents on Fabregas and van Persie. They were malicious and dangerous and if he doesn’t get at least a three game ban for his actions I will be furious. The goal celebration I can take; he is a low, low person and I expect that of him but intentionally trying to hurt two of our players cannot go without consequence.

You’ve probably read van Persie’s statement on the incident and that my friends is class. Robin is known for reacting to aggressive behavior on the pitch but yesterday he just let it be, because recognized what Adebayor was doing and didn’t want to sink to his level. Emmanuel Adebayor will never earn any respect back from anyone at Arsenal Football Club, even Arsene Wenger who has stood up for him at the worst of times is very disappointed in him.

He is a coward and it wouldn’t surprise me to see him do an Ashley Cole and miss the home game vs. City – but if he does then he’ll get what’s coming to him and you won’t see him acting like that again when he’s surrounded by 55,000 people who he has pissed off. It’s easy when it’s just a couple of thousand fans in a corner surrounded by the police that can’t get to you when you sprint the whole length of the pitch showing more effort in one celebration than you did all last season for us – but when you’re surrounded by 55,000 people things can change.

Well that’s all I have to say really. Poor result, attention turns to the Champions League now though, a competition which Adebayor isn’t in, awww. Prick.
