Arsenal or Chelsea
« on October 24, 2012, 01:10:20 pm by GVARover »
After our performance last night I wondered whether we were becoming more the Chelsea of the North than the Arsenal of the North?
Hearing the Chelsea fans at Tottenham on Saturday singing "We know who we are, Champions of Europe" I think I could live with "We know who we are, Champions of Ligue 1" for starters...
Fancy football is great, but if its a choice between that and winning let's start with winning!  Saunders is building a team that looks to be taking that route and I particularly liked the Star's report refering to the Rovers as "ruthless" - could not be happier at this point in the season; looking forward to more ruthlessness at Notts County!

think you've been south of the Channel a bit too long :laugh: but I see your point - if we had more attacking flair added to the mix (a la Hazard, but at our level) we'd definitely be that :P

I'd rather we say they were the Doncaster Rovers of the south.

Bit more Everton than Chelsea to my mind.

RedJ, you are probably right - living on a diet of PSG and Evian Thonon Gaillard can have its effect!  Can't get into the Swiss league not like Fuzzy...
Got to agree with IDM - after all we did win last night which is more than Chelsea managed  :thumbsup:
Thanks for the replies
