Hopefully Impact can win, then Als & finally Bulldogs tonight.
Laurent. Just out of curiosity, what made you become an Arsenal fan? I think you're relatively young right? The team hasnt won anything in 7 years and other than Henry and maybe RVP they didnt have any big superstar.

I always liked Henry when I was a soccer "Bandwaggoner". Then 2 years ago when I started really watching Soccer (World Cup 2010, I went on vacation to Holland & Spain for my brothers 18th Birthday) My mom got me a Wesley Sneijder Jersey, so I started supporting Holland. Would watch the games in Amsterdam bars during the knockout stages (Well, it was impossible to see the TV cause the streets were full, but still.) When I started watching the PL, Van Persie played for Arsenal, so I started paying more attention to them (Also watched a bit of Chelsea, but meh, I didn't really like them as much). Then slowly but surely I just got dragged in to Arsenal. Didn't happen overnight, nor did I say "I'm a Arsenal fan now" it just happened gradually
Weird huh? The guy that got me to shortlist Arsenal left And yes I'm turning 18 in december. At least it shows that I am not a gloryhunting/bandwaggon fan (Like all Manchester City fans at my school last year when they won the title). I guess I just liked the way Arsenal played
I mean hell, the New York Jets, Montreal Canadiens & Arsenal are three teams I support combining 67 years without winning championships

Marco didnt have a bad game today but he seemed disinterested.
Mapp is a terrible player.
My Today's game analysis :
- Nyassi runs dangles, but as a tunnel vision. And refuses to pass for personal reasons it almost seems.
- neagle, can he possibly fumble the ball more often?
- arnaud, good effort as always but no skills what so ever his touches are always like 2-3 meters away from him wich doesnt let him see the play around him.
- di vaio, super talent but hyper annoying with his reactions... Italian stereotype 100% eh staminga! Piccolo qui! We know they cant pass the ball but no need to lower the confidence of your own teamates lol. Seriously i dont know why we didnt bring a player who could understand/anticipate his runs... Imo it cost us a playoffs spot.
- bernier, either creative or invisible, Gotta be more consistent.
- Ferrari is a mini Nesta on his prime today... Nuff said
- Mallace raw talent and vision, tremendous mobility:-)very surprising since his come back.. Has potential.
- wemger, talented, understands the games tremendous talents, needs to improve his technique and efficiency. Hopefully it happens fast.
- warner quite solid.
- perkins, excellent as usual we really got a gem for ricketts.
Finnally we need some key additions for next year...
Impact under 21 squad reaches the finals with a 3-1 win over York today. Looks like a bright future for our team.
Don't have too high expectations. They're playing in the Canadian Soccer League . I think the only other U21 teams in there are TFC U-21 & Whitecaps U-21. Not really the same type of competition, would of have been better to see a MLS U-21 tournament and see where the boys slot in
Let's show some love for the MTL Impact winning the MLS Reserve League title! Columbus beat DC 2-0 This morning, giving the Impact the title (If DC won, MTL would of have finished 2nd)

Considering Montreal's multiculturality, I got hope that one day or another, there will be a real special talent home grown. Someone who can make it in one of the first world wide divisions (Italy/England/France/Germany/Spain). But by then, who knows, maybe the MLS will be up there

Btw I got Football Manager 13 and playing with the impact. This game is giving me headaches. So detaild but so realistic and so amazing. I signed Malouda as a DP but the board wont let me sign a 3rd DP. I'm paying him 6 millions, a bit much but I couldnt negotiate for less.

At least, they lost their game, which means we are still tied with them with one game to go. We play New England, we should get the three points. It would not be acceptable not to. They go to LA to play the Galaxy, so I doubt they get a win. We still can "win" the first seed for the Canadian championship. That gives us something to play for on Saturday. Can't wait to go to the game, hopefully the stands are full!
I was in pure admiration of the Caps' work in the 1st half of the season but after 3 month string of terrible performances, they don't deserve it. At least Dallas worked their ***** off to deal with internal issues and get close to the playoffs.
Heard a beat reporter on 98,5 Sunday saying that there were punches thrown between American and Italian players in the locker room recently. Apparently, management will have to decide who's going to lead this team: euros or americans, because the Euros/Italians have bunched up against NA players, according to this guy. Can't remember his name, but he was with Mario Langlois.
