Do you think it'll be easy enough to find highlights of them online? So disappointing that I'm away for 2 of the 3 live games shown on there... argh! Was really keen on getting it too.
 
Anyone watching the Arsenal game its on in about 20 minutes, Arsenal squad is as follows.

Arsenal Starting XI v Malaysia XI:

Szczesny, Jenkinson, Gibbs, Koscielny, Vermaelen (c) Wilshere, Song, Ramsey, Miyaichi, Walcott, Chamakh.

Yeah there are a few videos of him doing some stuff like that on Youtube for various matches and practices. I think it's about time we bring him back to coach for us and let him bring Christian Eriksen with him!
Yeah, maybe you shouldn't!

I think the Wilshere-Walcott-Gibbs (+Ramsey) combination will be interesting here.. all young English players who have been trained the same way (Arseneball), if they stick together they should get very accommodated to each others styles.. already seeing some nice plays between Wilshere and Ramsey.

It isn't surprising that Arsenals defense is looking shaky already :(. Really hope we get Samba or Cahill at least.

edit: Koscienly would struggle to make this Malaysian team btw.. very unimpressive.

To be fair it should be 3-1, the offside call was way, way off.

But that was an excellent goal, no question.
Only watching it partly because of the Tour going on as well. It looked like they put up a good fight with the goal and the ball through Gulacsi's legs just moments before.

Ryo Miyaichi!!!!

That's a lot of exclamation marks! Almost like I should know who he is :p This is far more exciting than the Liverpool game though - in that I'm just seeing how long Aquilani can make it without getting injured.

Arsenal TV are screening it live for free, commentary is in English too and much better quality.

Ah, excellent. I must admit - I liked the other commentator. He was CONSTANTLY talking.

Do you actually not know who Ryo is? For some reason, I have been genuinely excited for him to play for us ever since he signed.

Nice chip from Walcott!

Double post - great goal. 2 - 0 Arsenal.

No idea who he is. I understand you signed him in January and loaned him to Feyenoord?
 
The mid-season gap isn't long enough, in my opinion. I need a good 4 of 5 months to cleanse myself of the previous season, and head into the next one with optimism and genuine excitement.

The tension of the FA Cup final still resides deep within my mind, and I haven't yet purged that anxiety. We're four weeks away from another season of heartache, misery and elation, and I don't think I'm mentally there yet.

Granted, I am fairly sure I'm completely alone on this though process.

Wait I tuned out of the Arsenal game now I am back and why is Denilson on the pitch again??

Nobody will buy him off of us :p

Great start from him as well, under no real pressure he smashes the ball out for a corner.

Seriously? Is it just me or is chipping the only thing Carlos Vela knows how to do? No wonder he never scores in the PL. Those GK's are actually good and know how to catch a chip.

yeah.. it's just positioning.. you would never get something like that through a Cech/VDS/Reina etc.. these inexperienced keepers fall for his trap.
