Going into that Birmingham game which Eduardo broke his leg in we had the opportunity to go 8 points clear as it was an early Saturday K:O on the 27th G/W before everyone else played. The football that season going forward with the likes of Fabregas, Rosicky, Hleb, Walcott, Van Persie, Adebayor was absolutely scintillating. The intricate & incisive interchanges and build up play going forward was truly breathtaking. Including the Birmingham draw we drew 5, lost 2 and won just 1 of our 8 league games in that period which ultimately cost us the title. Finished on 83 points (4 points off Man Utd). The 2 we lost were 6 pointers against Man United and Chelsea respectively as well to make it even more painful. Even if we'd just managed to beat United during that horrific run of results it would have hypothetically meant that we would have won the league in hindsight if the 3 points went the other way although obviously I appreciate the entire dynamic of the run in would have been altered by those chain of events. Fine margins. That was by far my favourite time being an Arsenal supporter in terms of the style of football we used to play. Just a shame we couldn't get over the line and reward all that exceptional free flowing attacking football with a Prem title at the end of it. Fine margins. We completely imploded from gameweek 27-34. What could have been 😔.
MUMSSSS ONLY THING PISSED ME OFF WITH HIM THAT SEASON WAS BRUM AWAY HE SHOULD HAVE SQUARED TO BENDNRER TO GIVE HIM A OPEN GOAL 1-3 3 points we will win the league
Nah. Experience and leadership doomed the team in the end. The young squad couldn't cope watching Eduardo's horror injury. And of course Gallas proved to be a bad captain when he was really needed.
I was at that game, mental scenes in our end when those two goals went in, I vividly remember finding myself on the floor Charlie George FA Cup Final style after our third, happy days.
Always loathed those stewards in that corner and loved the Arsenal players' celebrations pushed them back through sheer force of joy. They never let away players celebrate properly with their away fans there.
@@iykeharrison9161 Also Gallas as captain 🤢. Toure or Gilberto would've been much better choices. Could we have won the league that year if we re-signed Anelka instead of him moving to Chelsea?
A cracking North London Derby somehow Arsenal won it easily. Tottenham had so many chances after Bale opened the scoring with that free kick but they were so wasteful Berbatov should've scored at least twice, Huddlestone missed a great chance to make it 2-0 early in the second half, Darren Bent missed a sitter to make it 2-2 after Fabregas gave Arsenal the lead with 10 minutes left and they got punished big time and it increased the pressure on Martin Jol. Tottenham were expected to challenge Arsenal for a UCL spot after back to back 5th place finishes but this defeat plus the bottling of should've been an easy win at Fulham the previous week which was part of an appalling start to the season of 1 win from 10 in the league cost Martin Jol his job at half time during their defeat in the UEFA Cup against Getafe.

Adebayors second goal is one of the best goals ever what a fucking banger and that first touch is unreal to set it up what a goal
Reminiscent of Henry
2007/2008 - arguably the greatest ever Premier League season
Unless you support Derby
Why ?
@mrflynn1205 you don't want to know haha
That is a contender, but also 2013/14, the top 4 that season were separated by just 7 points

Arsenal’s free flowing football, Fabregas, a fit Diaby, young Emo looking Bale and an average almunia goal keeper. The old days !

ADEBAYOR that is my all time favourite ever Arsenal goal

What a goal by Adebayor
John Motion’s pronounciation of Abou Diaby’s name as Abu Dhabi 😂. Great game, great days these were
Love the reaction of the Spuds fans behind the goal when Adebayor got the 3rd, priceless
That Adebayor goal is one of the best Arsenal goals imo 🔥🔥🔥
It's Abu Dhabi on the left side of midfield" lol classic commentators.
Classic John Motson. Remember D.D.A Drogbar?
He had a whale of a time with christian fuchs
@@patrickfrondigoun4145 "Hits the Postman PersIIIIIEEEE"
Why on earth arsenal were trophyless dat season ...we miss dat arsenal
Defensive issues. The attacking football was some of the most artistic under Wenger.
Some defensive lapses, not as much squad depth as two main rivals and some amazing competition. Man Utd and Chelsea were incredible teams that season.
Nah. Experience and leadership doomed the team in the end. The young squad couldn't cope watching Eduardo's horror injury. And of course Gallas proved to be a bad captain when he was really needed.
They just imploded after Eduardo's injury and the nature of it, including in that game at Birmingham. They'd been shit hot all season until then
wenger's weaknesses were becoming more glaring than his strengths
I was at that game, mental scenes in our end when those two goals went in, I vividly remember finding myself on the floor Charlie George FA Cup Final style after our third, happy days.
Darren bent shot like an arsenal fan that day 😅
He is an arsenal fan now 😂
Done his bit for us in that moment. Hats off to him, taking one for the team 👏 👏👏😆😆.
Always loathed those stewards in that corner and loved the Arsenal players' celebrations pushed them back through sheer force of joy. They never let away players celebrate properly with their away fans there.
Bent was like no way am scoring against my team mama will spank me 😂😂😂😂😂😂
That Bale lad’s got potential.
Those were the daze...
Berbatov, Bent, Robbie Keane and a young Bale. No shortage of good attacking options for Spurs back then. Needed to take more chances.
They also had Defoe as well too in that season
Almunia was soo bad, can't believe we had to deal with keepers like that after the likes of Seaman and Lehmann
Kolo Toure was such a defensive general
Adebayor was a bloody handful!!
I loved him so much until he left. After then, things never remained the same
would've LOVED to have had xg stats for some of these games.
Arsenal probably had large XG numbers because they created a lot.
This arsenal side were so inconsistent and frustrating to watch. Brilliant goals one second and major lapses in concentration the next.
Post Invincibles, arguably Wenger's best team
@@redkem80 I would say Wenger's best attacking team but very weak and a bit disorganized defensively. Plus too many injury prone players
@@iykeharrison9161 Also Gallas as captain 🤢. Toure or Gilberto would've been much better choices.
Could we have won the league that year if we re-signed Anelka instead of him moving to Chelsea?
Paul Robinson was a bang average GK

Bale looks about 15 here 😮
Darren Bent was always a gunner
Arsenal kicking the spuds asses since 1832

almunia is arguably the worst arsenal goalkeeper ever
If only Birmingham city never happen that season
Good heavens what a goal son Ade pulled a live rabbit out of a hat
How Almunia was no1 for years I’ll never know
It’s a shame adebayor is such a c unt!.
Helb was class and fabregas brilliant.would love those 2 now with the new team
If this team had a strong defence and avoided lots of injuries to key players , they would have definitely won the league and lots more
@@iykeharrison9161 They had a good defence overall, bar some some mistakes, but they weren't as good as Man Utd and Chelsea defences.
Adebayor needed 10 chances to score 1.
How can you say that after his 2nd goal 😂
@@jacqueswebster6463 He did score goals but he wasn't a clinical finisher.
@@nazeemameen1253 Aubamayeng needs 100 to score 1.
OP gotta point Adebayor wasn't really clinical.
Adebayor despite scoring two was still a woeful bottler. Missed so many crunch chances that season. Fraud
His goal scoring record was amazing what you on about
He was amazing this season. Even Lewandowski misses a few chances. No score scores every chance.
He was better than Nketiah will ever be.
@@jacqueswebster6463 That was more down to the midfield behind him then ade he was a woeful finisher .
Gilberto Silva What is shit ??????
If I recall correctly he only arrived back in London from Brazil the day before
@@manusiaganteng2753 Also played this game at CB
Adebayor was never a league striker
would miss so many chances
Adebayor joined as the second top goalscorer alongside Torres with 24 goals each that season only 7 behind by I guess you know who during that season.
£16 million for Bent 😂
Bent is a gooner 🔴⚪️
