01.09.12 | List is King related, because Thierry Henry is the King. Always.
Anyways, Andrei Arshavin played a great match and I could not stop yelling and being obnoxious on twitter after the goal. |
Adabelle
01.09.12 | Yeah, facebook just exploded, mate had money on him getting the first goal, he's now £50 richer.. |
Recspecs
01.09.12 | Hell yeah man, I have made at least $100 altogether so far. |
Adabelle
01.09.12 | And Arshavin has almost dropped to Torres levels of mediocrity. |

01.09.12 | Thierry Henry was the first jersey I ever owned from the EPL. Truth. Go Gunners! |
Recspecs
01.09.12 | "And Arshavin has almost dropped to Torres levels of mediocrity."
Agreed and Chamahk has dropped even lower, but Arshavin played (in my opinon) a great match today. And yes, go Gunners!!! Never thought I would get to see Henry put on an Arsenal shirt again. Hands down one of the greatest things I have ever witnessed. |
dnor
01.09.12 | Yeah, my best friend and I were probably the only kids in our town that followed the EPL, and we both really liked the Gunners. And his grandparents bought us both Henry jerseys when they came back from London. Since then though, I've developed into a Blues fan. It was fun to have a rivalry whenever Arsenal played Chelsea. At least we both hated ManU lol |

01.09.12 | I stopped caring about league football a while back but I used to be an Arsenal fan. Plus I'm half french, so this is pretty cool. I actually do hope something more comes of this loan and I might try to follow it again. Although it's kinda hard when I don't have any of the extra sports channels |

01.10.12 | Henry is so amazing, I knew he was gonna score as soon as he came in. Am I the only one who thought he looked offsides when he got the ball, though? |
CasinoColumbus
01.10.12 | Became an Arsenal supporter during Henry's first years in London and after all these years it's great to see him back.
@Fortheloveofmusic, no he wasn't. A Leeds defender was standing within 16 meters while Henry wasn't. But yeah, it definitely was a close call. |

01.11.12 | I still am buzzing about it haha, I was ranting on twitter about it forever yesterday and people were unfollowing me lol. |
Alexcore
01.11.12 | "I stopped caring about league football"
why so? I'm asking because if you're english, you're really dumb. you can't complain or stop caring when you have the BEST and most organised football facilities, teams etc. I'm greek, the greek football sucks cock and it's incredibly boring, not to mention that there's not a fucking player that would made the difference in a better league. and for what it's worth you guys have to pay for the extra sports channels and you actually watch something good. we have to pay to watch a bunch of assholes trying to look like maradona. |

I can appreciate it to an extent. I don't really follow club soccer as much because it's the same teams dominating year in and year out. I do, however, enjoy some of the Champions League games. |

01.11.12 | "I don't really follow club soccer as much because it's the same teams dominating year in and year out."
I disagree. There are several Italian and German clubs on the rise. |

Yup, german and italian league are really exciting this year. especially serie A (hopefully Juventus will be crowned champion) |
Thane
01.11.12 | yeah, seria a and bundesliga have been really cool to watch this and last season. i just hope some of the teams will be able to hold on to some of the big names. |

DominionMM1
01.11.12 | "I disagree. There are several Italian and German clubs on the rise. "
I was referring more to the EPL and La Liga. And for some reason, most of the Italian league games are slow and boring to me. I don't get to see many Bundesliga games. |
Recspecs
01.11.12 | I guess that is true to an extent. The Premier League does have more clubs capable of winning then it has had in previous seasons with Manchester City, Manchester United, Tottenham, Arsenal, Chelsea, Newcastle, and Liverpool (not so much) all playing well. |
Adabelle
01.11.12 | Mmmm, you know if the Premier League (EPL if you have to) had started on the 1st of September, Tottenham would be top. |

Fathers of catenazzio, man, masters of defense. This year is amazing though, even if the number of goals scored isn't soooo increased, if you watch matches between the top 13 teams (well, except cagliari and catania, they always sucked), you'll watch pretty good football.
As for bundesliga, amazing season for gladbach so far. |

01.12.12 | As soon as Song played the ball through (a thing of beauty I might add), I knew it was a goal with that first touch. Classic Henry finish.
