Fabregas has form for spitting. Not the first time its happened

Strange, I heard he was a swallower!

 

[Marc]

ahahahahaha

"Fabregas, who was out injured, later strenuously denied the allegation.

"I categorically deny that I spat at anybody after the match," said the 21-year-old Gunners midfielder.

"I have never done this in my whole career on the pitch, so why would I do it when I am not even playing?"

oh really??

YouTube - Fabregas Spits In Ballacks Face

 

[soze]

He dribbled that was not spiting

Hehe, always nice to see fans defend obvious stuff

then again, to bad we didn't have HD quality back then so you actually could see anything!

 

[soze]

I swear he had a tooth pulled out earlier that day the drugs were still working on his face.... yeah thats right

 

[Lethul]

Just saw the winning goal, worst linesman ever?

 

[soze]

Came off the keeper its a valid goal fair play to the linesman for seeing the keeper played the ball to Gallas

 

[Ch3tan]

It was an ill tempered game and badly refereed. Wenger as usual fires up his players and does not realise. The lack of discipline at all levels of Arsenal is shocking, and as a fan you should be ashamed.

Phil Brown does not strike me as someone who takes shit or makes things up, and Wenger never sees anything...

Phil Brown also watched his goal keeper knock the ball on to Gallas and said it was off side so sometimes he's wrong. And seeing as the claims now are Cesc spat on the floor near his assistant how close does it have to be for it to be an attack?

I dont think we should there has been no video proof show up that cesc spat at this guy yet there is video of him walking past him and away. You hear much less about Arsenal players getting in trouble off the pitch than other clubs. As for on the pitch we are 3rd in the fair play league. So apart from individual players acting up ala Gallas what should we be ashamed off?

 

[Ch3tan]

Eboue, also do you not have the worst red card record in the premier league? You have a manager that does not seem to hold sportsmanship in high regard, unless it is his players suffering.

The article always said he spat on the floor at his feet, from when it first appeared. It is still very disrespectful and out of order.

I would not want my team captain doing that, nor would I want my club covering up or helping them get away with it.

there was offside, because Bendtner changed the direction of the ball which led to a pass. It is at the moment where it's geting passed, that he's offside. It doesn't matter whether the goalie hit it or not.

 

[Ch3tan]

But! but! but! Wonk! That is not what the great and glorious Wenger saw, so it never happened like that. His explanation was the correct one, and we must not dispute it. No we must accept it blindly.

How many footballers spit on the floor? how close does it need to be before its an attack on some one elses space? So in other words how close did the spit have to hit the floor near the guy for it to not be spiting on the floor and be spiting at someone? Because i bet every club captin in the world has spat on the football pitch while close to another player.

Eboue is a twat thats a fair one.

Since 2002 - 2003 we have had 3 or less red cards a year not exactly the bad boys any more,

there was offside, because Bendtner changed the direction of the ball which led to a pass. It is at the moment where it's geting passed, that he's offside. It doesn't matter whether the goalie hit it or not.

That was a different phase of play gallas was not active when that happened he only became active after the keeper deflected the ball to him!

 

[Ch3tan]

They do not use the phase of play stuff anymore. Offside is simply offside again. He was in an offside position when the ball was played, and must be considered active because the opposition players have to consider him in their play.

3 or less red cards yes, someone else will have to find the stats, but I am sure you have the worst record (under Wenger).

I cannot prove everything I say, it is my feeling from the way Wenger reacts, and the apparent lack of discipline in your squad. Also I know Fergie is talking bullshit half the time, I accept this. Arsenal fans do not seem to be able to get through Wengers bullshit.

Spitting on the pitch is very different to spitting at someone's feet in the tunnel. And it is suggested they were having words at the time.

From the photos and videos i have seen Cesc crosses the guys path at the end of the tunnel by the side if the pitch not down the tunnel. I personally do not like spitting at all but from what has been said this is just bitterness from Hull. He did not spit in his face or anything just on the floor.


In the Petit Viera days we had one season of 7 reds and one of 6 but that was a long time ago now. Apart from Gallas on the pitch at Birmingham i can not think of any major team discipline problems. Feel free to point out anything i should be ashamed off though. But if you mean Eboue diving or bad tackles i suggest you watch the Blackburn game that had 2 great examples of other teams doing the same.

The famous line the press like to run with "I didn't see it" here is what Wenger said of the spitting

I'm glad the winning goal was offside the way the twats were time wasting from the 15th minute had me seething for some reason.

 

[Lethul]

It hits Arsenal player first tho?

edit: I just saw you are not serious!

 

[Ormorof]

I've just got back from a curry just in time to watch the end of ET and the pens

Penalties are ace provided a team you support isn't playing in them.

Given's just made the first save, SWP makes it 3-2 citeh after 3.

Edit: Given makes another save, Citeh through 4-2

Someone's pants are on fire + our support of Cesc should be unequivocal | Arseblog @ OleOle

Says it all about the Cesc situation better than i ever can

 

[Everz]

FEED THE HARE AND HE WILL SCORE.

Harewood signing for Wolves in summer for a rumoured £2.5mil, bbc reports as have SSN.

Annoyed? You bet.

Meh, won't make much difference, you'll go down with/without Harewood

I'd rather seem him cause a nuisance at Villa and concede more penalties

That overhead kick against Liverpool at Anfield last year was worth his transfer fee alone. He isn't good enough for the top of the Premier League but would do a job for a bottom to mid-table team, plus he is a very strong character in the dressing room apparently.

I think the Ballack "incident" simply can be proven no spitting from the fact that Ballack didn't say anything about it afterwards?

And the ref saying he did not spit he swore and he was right there. But people like to think the worse and now Cesc will be stained by this reputation. Because a Manager swears he saw something one minute then says his assistant told him about it the next the prick should be fined.

 

[megadave]

fulham 1-0, manu hve 10 men. please please please

 

[Corran]

lmao, man utd are falling apart...

i never understand why players handball it on the line so early in the game. 70minutes with 10 men and there probably 90%+ chance of 1-0 down from penalty anyways.

bloody rediculous play by scholes, though fulham been the best team so far. Fergi was being way to cocky with the lineup he put out for the match i feel
