haha dont be biased??? What is that about? holding someones shirt in the box is normal but pushing someone in the back to win a header is a foul no matter what and is plain cheating! it has nothing to do with being biased, if Terry done that to win his header i would be saying 'we got away with one there' Suarez is the biggest cheat in football! and i would be disgusted if the club ever even attempt to sign him! I would actually rather Rooney than Suarez and that is saying alot as i hate Rooney with a passion but Suarez is on a whole other level! just face it Suarez is a cheat and his goal yesterday never should have counted, and if you cant admit that then you are the one who is biased.

I dont want to get into a debate whether Schurrle is overrated or not he is a very talented player with alot of potential, Willian played well against us but can be very inconsistent and if we get through the group stages i could see us getting to at least the semi-finals with a bit of luck, then anything can happen from there.

i'd rather Schurrle tbh, also he would not be cup tied for the CL.

you forgot to mention his blatant push in Rami's back to score his goal he is a cheating scumbag! i hope we never even consider trying to sign him!

for me he would be my 2nd choice behind Falcao.

Just scored 4 goals past Dnipro! Quality player!

He scores goals for fun at Atletico with pretty average service, i can only imagine what kind of damage he would do up front for us playing in front of Mata, Hazard and Oscar!

put some money on him to score then, im thinking of doing it because that way if he does score at least you win some money so it doesn't hurt as much.

Have you actually seen Torres defend from set pieces? they highlighted him on Chelsea tv the other day they showed around 3 or 4 set pieces from different games where balls were played into the box and every time Torres was just literally standing there and not following his man, its one thing being tall and another actually being able to defend a set piece.

he cant, he will probably just put Mikel's great performances down to playing alongside Ramires.

great news about Mikel's new contract he deserves it, he is a joy to watch and looks like he is just going to get better and better.

Looking forward to this game, i feel that Shakhtar's style of play will play right into our hands we look so dangerous on the counter and i think we could really punish Shakhtar if they play too attacking and the game becomes open.

Sturridge and Torres are virtually the same height. He prefers Torres because Torres offers more with his workrate and creativity.

Tiote is an absolute moron! horrible player!

Another class performance from Mikel the guy is immense! as i have always said. wheres that guy who thinks Mikel is crap and Tiote is better than him? haha looks like he has been proved wrong once again first Hazard proved him wrong now Mikel is proving him wrong.

Comedy Central on the Arsenal Forum!

against tight compact parked buses like today its not the best idea to play all three but against teams that dont park the bus there is no problem playing all three.

yeah because i said all strikers need to score tap ins didn't i Wow! smh!

not one his best but he is still a very decent keeper.

of course but if Torres doesn't score today the abuse he is going to get on here will be ridiculous! i just want people to keep things in perspective and if he misses many open chances then fair enough but if he dosen't get any good chances then people shouldn't really go way ott like they always do.

no excuses as i said if he misses clear open chances then fair enough! so get your facts right in future!

Torres haters watch carefully he may have 3 class players behind him but he is up against a very organised and solid parked bus if he gets 2 or 3 really good open chances and misses them then fair enough but if he doesn't even get a clear chance then dont start talking rubbish saying 'how can he not score with them behind him'. Lets just wait and see.

in what way is he right? Owen used to be good many many years ago! he is old now and has had many injury problems recently no one sees him as a big name anymore thats why he plays for Stoke! whereas Torres has just won the Euro 2012 golden boot and a Champions league! so defenders still see him as a top striker! that is why all our new players always mention Torres as a great player they cant wait to play with same as Lampard and Terry! both of them as well are not as good as they used to be but are still huge names in world football a completely different level to Owen which is just a very ignorant and lazy comparison! So again please explain how he is right! just accept your that your the one who is wrong now as well!

Wrong on so many levels.

ok whatever you say! so do you really think the Stoke defense today are going to say 'oh we dont need to worry about Torres he is crap' or do you think they will want to put out a good performance against him? because i am sure if Shawcross for example manages to keep Torres quiet for 90 minutes he will go home a very happy man, but according to you he will be more like meh its only Torres! dont be ridiculous! whether he is perfroming or not he is still a huge name in world football and any defender would be satsified and happy with themselves to keep him quiet! but i do hope defenders start getting your ignorant attitude towards Torres and start to not see him as threat and dont bother with him as that would make things alot easier for Torres.
