Zohaib, that’s exactly what I’m talking about – no-one should treat football to the extent that we’ve heard about.

LOL, hopefully Cashley Cole will never win the Champions League!

It made me nostalgic seeing Sylvinho still playing for Barca in the UCL final (more so than Titi. He missed a would-be winning goal again).

Way back in the day Sylvinho was the best left back in the PL, one of our most exciting players. Yet Arsene let him go to accommodate the then budding Ashley Cole – to keep faith in a home-grown player who had what it takes and who were expected to be the club’s future leader, who would be with us through rain or shine.

Silvinho went on playing 3 years in little Celta Vigo before arriving at Barcelona and winning what he richly deserves today (I don’t think he started against Arsenal in the Paris Final), even more so given that he barely got into the Brazilian team back when Roberto Carlos was the automatic first choice.

Do I need to mention what turned out between Arsenal and Cole? What a twist of faith.

ArseFan – you’re comment came out a bit wrong mate. It’s sounds like you’re saying it’s because people treat football as religion, that they lose their cool and go over the top, even being violent. And that’s wrong. No religion tells you to be violent. Some people interpret it wrong. But it certainly doesn’t have anything to do with religion.

I’m crazy passionate about Arsenal but that doesn’t mean I have to hate another club or another set of supporters. It’s called being sensible.

Adams and Keown, and Bergkamp, and Henry.

Dev, I don’t know if it’ll still be a problem – the one with our frustrated fans – but I’m sure Henry coming back will solve that ! We’ll believe whatever he tells us.

And we’ve been saying that (young talent coming through blah) for over 3 years now. Yet, every season, somebody important gets injured and it screws our season.

The news is all over the papers today – apparently Barry is holding out for a move to Arsenal… but it sounds like it’s all paper talk – there are no quotes!

Oh my gosh – where did you hear that? People sometimes treat football as a religion and it’s just not right – it’s awful!
