阿仙奴世界

[babykh]

法甲球會波爾多射手查馬克，日前親口證實願望成為阿仙奴旗下成員，並暗示今年夏天將離開成名地，是否為雲加效力？

摩洛哥射手查馬克承認，去年夏天寧投兵工廠亦不入紅軍懷抱：「我的未來？我沒有壓力，只能說日子一天一天過去，離開波爾多的日子就一天一天迫近。」冬季，兵工廠再次向查馬克招手，惟波爾多已不願放行。

「我的選擇是英超，由我選擇球會的話，會是阿仙奴。」查馬克受到多支英、意勁旅虎視眈眈，但最後無緣在季中離隊，「波爾多讓我有今日的名氣，所以我想早一點讓他們作好準備，慢慢取代自己的位置。」

同時，查馬克又大讚教練白蘭斯的執教功力：「他令全隊擁有冠軍的意志，教曉我們先要討厭失敗。3年前，我的情緒仍然很波動，但今日已經可以好好控制。」

「我是很樂意給隊友助攻的球員，今天卻覺得自越來越是機會主義者，但仍然不足夠。」

Fabregas: I love London a lot
Written by Jonathan Chong on Sunday, February 7, 2010

Captain Cesc Fabregas has admitted that he would return to his hometown of Barcelona one day but only when he has retired, as him and his family are loving London too much at the moment.

There has been constant speculation surrounding the Spaniard's future at Arsenal, something which he has constantly dismissed, always emphasising his commitment to Arsenal.

But some fans have never been convinced, perhaps scarred by similar declarations of love and loyalty from former captains Patrick Vieira and Thierry Henry, only to see them leave all too quickly for pastures anew, whatever the reason.

Hopefully, this latest interview by Fabregas (with a Spanish radio station), will help ease the fans' concerns and convince them that this captain is here to stay.

Fabregas said: "Well, the truth is I have never hidden this and I will never stop hiding that since I was a child, since I was 9 months old I went to the Camp Nou.

"All of my life I have been dressing the Barca colours. Because of some facts, I had to leave and I have seen also other things that I have enjoyed a lot. But in the future you will never know what will happen.

"But I do not like to talk about the future. In football, everything goes so fast. One day, you are here. The next day, you are there.

"When I retire from football, I will live in Barcelona. But I love London a lot, me and my family love London."

好玄
When I retire from football, I will live in Barcelona =/= 在阿記收山
When I retire from football, I will live in Barcelona可以在任何球會（包括巴塞）收山
不過法比真係好識講野，好識氹阿迷開心

上週末阿仙奴作客 0-2 不敵車路士，這場爭冠大戰不僅讓阿仙奴的奪冠夢想遭到挫敗，而且已讓槍手隊長費比加斯萌生離隊念頭。



據報導，阿仙奴隊長費比加斯拒絕了阿仙奴提供的新合约。槍手向西班牙球星提供了每週 12.7萬英鎊的頂薪，但費比加斯已心生去意，希望在今年夏天加盟「母隊」巴塞隆拿。

西班牙報紙《每日體育報》表示，費比加斯重返鲁营並不僅僅是因為「純粹的經濟問題」。他已經清楚地向自己的經理人提出願望，接下來就坐等雙方球會進行轉會費等方面的接洽。

巴塞隆拿願意向 22歲的阿仙奴中場支付 5,000萬歐元的轉會費，這對困境之中的阿仙奴而言是個巨大的誘惑。

《每日體育報》還聲稱，皇馬主席佩雷斯也瞭解到了這樁轉會，並且明白自己不可能將費比加斯吸引到西班牙首都。

如果夏天條友仲唔醒
費比加斯就拿拿臨好走

[babykh]

阿仙奴前鋒尹佩斯，自去年11月7日聯賽4:1大勝狼隊後，至今因足踝傷再未為兵工廠上陣。英國《太陽報》指出，這名26歲荷蘭射手最快可於4月復出，目前已可作緩步跑。

兵工廠目前攻力啞火，近3場聯賽只入1球，早前艾沙維已公開批評領隊雲格戰術有誤，以其出任中鋒一角，又埋怨球隊沒有在冬季轉會市場買人。今次收到尹佩斯將於4月復出，總算是利好消息。尹佩斯說：「現階段情形來看，我只能說我的復原速度與預期中一樣，畢竟那次是重傷；我希望4月之時，能為球隊在聯賽尾段上陣，屆時當然希望我們於歐聯還未出局。」

阿仙奴暫於聯賽榜以25戰得49分排第3，已落後榜首車路士9分，而周三將主場對另一支Big4球會利物浦。艾沙維補充：「我們上仗不敵車路士，全因未有好好看管杜奧巴，但那已是過去；現在我們!唯一要做的，就是為大戰利物浦作好準備。」

[babykh]

曾幾何時，阿仙奴領隊雲格對於一眾小將的演出而感到自豪，但當球隊近期接二連三於聯賽失分，讚慣小將的雲格突轉口風，揚言靠小將肯定冇運行！這位法藉領隊的說話是否矛盾？是否自打咀巴？

曾被雲格譽為領軍生涯最難踢的 4 場聯賽，結果阿仙奴先賽和阿士東維拉 0:0、再 1:3 不敵曼聯，繼而 0:2 敗予車路士，3 場聯賽僅得 1 分，而周三晚更要硬撼利物浦。對於兵工廠小將近期表現，雲格明顯表示不滿：「我承認年輕球員欠缺經驗，這是個關鍵點，亦是完全無法爭取英超聯桂冠的關鍵點！」

上輪對車路士淨吞雙蛋，雲格以「幼稚」來形容小將的表現：「我們平均年齡是 23歲，車路士則是 29歲，我相信兩者的勝負關鍵相當明顯。不過，我們仍會爭標爭到底，展示出應有的爭勝心；假如車路士較阿仙奴佳，那便值得贏聯賽錦標，曼聯亦然，任何球隊能封王我也會衷心祝賀他們。」

[babykh]

阿仙奴領隊雲格，始終沒有在1月購入前鋒，當球隊連負給曼聯和車路士後，輿論再一次針對其「死慳難慳」的轉會方針，惟「教援」日前面對祖國媒體時就暗示，今夏將正式斟介波爾多射手查馬克，是否為時已晚？

法國籍領隊雲格面對祖國電視台時表示：「人應該追求完成未完的夢，球隊的確很欣賞他，但當我們落實簽下的時候，我才會讓大家知道。」

由於荷蘭前鋒尹佩斯長期，賓特拿最近才告復出，故此「沙皇」艾沙維近期就擔任正前鋒一職，可惜表現未如人意。雲格曾在1月表態，兵工廠有意收購一名射手回巢，但最後因「沒有合適人選」而放棄，而查馬克較早前則直言，轉戰英超的理想地會是阿仙奴。

[andybaba]

其實雲加初期亦有好多不大如意的收購, 唔明點近年來咁執著果兩三個唔夠班既球員! 輸波唔係大問題, 對車仔場波, 身體對抗性已經唔及對方, 但上半場當有波在腳, 都無人走位, 點打! 你當對手流, 你地企定定傳波都攪掂, 佢地就唔係曼聯同車仔, 令人好懷念韋拉, 皮利斯, 龍格堡, 柏金, 他們絲絲入扣既走位, 而家無晒, 傳一百次波都無用, 三四碼傳波有鬼用! 細粒唔代表無得打, 最重要有無心去打!

[babykh]

周三過後，阿仙奴領隊雲格一臉風騷，說話也飄飄然，全因近期接連失分的兵工廠，終告止跌兼全取3分。昨夜「雙紅會」，阿仙奴憑戴亞比72分鐘一箭定江山，主場1:0擊敗利物浦，重燃爭標希望。雲格賽後說：「這可以是我們拿聯賽冠軍的一季。」

連續4場應付「魔鬼賽程」，雲格麾下的阿仙奴昨晚總算贏回一仗；早前先和阿士東0:0，再負曼聯1:3，繼而淨吞車路士雙蛋，到「魔鬼賽程」最後一戰，憑戴亞比下半場的入球奠勝，全季最難打的4場聯賽也告一段落。

目前阿仙奴26戰得52分，適逢那邊廂榜首車路士與曼聯昨夜齊齊失分，現兵工廠僅落後車仔6分而已。領隊雲格賽後說：「我早說過己隊會奮鬥至球季完結一刻，今晚我們展示出那股拚勁；要知道連續3仗對曼聯、車路士及利物浦並不容易，根本沒有時間容許我們休息。」

再看餘下賽程，曼聯、車路士及利物浦俱要互相對壘，相反阿仙奴毋須再對Big4；而兵工廠未來7仗對手俱是中下游球隊，包括新特蘭、史篤城、般尼、侯城及韋斯咸，他們確有力全勝。難怪雲格說：「為何說我們不能贏取聯賽冠軍？」

Is Chamakh any good? Watch him against Olympiakos and find out
By Myles Palmer

Is Chamakh any good?

Let's watch Olympiakos v Bordeaux and find out.

Olympiakos beat Arsenal 1-0 on Matchday 6 when Wenger played his kids. On Matchday 2, Arsenal beat Olympiakos with late goals by Van Persie and Arshavin.

We have read that Chamakh has signed a pre-contract and that Wenger will get him on a free transfer and pay him £10.4 million in wages over four years.

Another French-African joins the gravy train ?

Maroune Chamakh is a 26-year old who has scored 9 goals all season.

Seven in the league, two in the Champions League. Last season he scored 13 and none in the Champions League. How is that better than what Arsenal already have? Can he turn an average side into world beaters on his own? Or is Wenger just signing potential again?

The manager's negotiating position has been : We only want you, so wait, hang in there, come to us, I won't sign anybody else.

A big club does not operate that way. Chamakh has not had to compete with anybody to join Arsenal. He's walking in because he's a French-African pretty boy with a bit of pace. If he was better than Huntelaar he would not be playing for Bordeaux.

Frustrated Arsenal fans will have waited a whole year for a new goalscorer, while knowing their team had a big chance to do better than finishing third.

Wenger was so keen to get Marouane Chamakh on a free transfer that he sacrificed this season. There were four trophies to be won but he didn't equip himself to compete for even two of them.

He signed Vermaelen early to boost box sales, making people think more proper players were coming, and then decided to bluff this season, selling us the future again. Top 4 in England, top 8 in Europe, and roll on the 2010-2011 season.

Last week I was told that a guy who works at the Emirates on match days sometimes drives Mrs Wenger around. He asked her why Arsene had not bought a striker and Annie said, "My husband wants to win it without spending any money."

Many thanks for all your emails.

Two weeks ago, following what I wrote about J.D. Salinger, I got the oddest reader's reply since I started doing this in 1998.

That reader said : More book reviews, please.

For that guy, I've done a review of a popular comic novel.

Feb 13, 2010

唔知真定假
我淨係諗起上季足總盃對車仔唔出艾沙雲，理由係想俾槍手知道阿記冇艾沙雲都可以擊敗車仔……結果……
我係盲目既槍迷，希望今次俾雲加博到

Arsenal hit by injuries ahead of Porto trip
By Chris Harris

Arsenal must negotiate a tough Champions League trip to Porto without a number of first-team regulars.

Andrey Arshavin and Alex Song picked up injuries during last week's win over Liverpool and they have not recovered in time for the first leg against the Portuguese champions. What's more, they have been joined on the sidelines by William Gallas and Manuel Almunia. Meanwhile Eduardo, tipped for a return on Wednesday night, is still unavailable.

Arsène Wenger ran through his list of walking wounded before his 18-man squad boarded their flight to Portugal on Tuesday afternoon.

"William Gallas has a calf injury. Alex Song has a knee injury. Andrey Arshavin has a hamstring injury," said Wenger.

"Manuel Almunia has a finger injury, and the hand is quite useful for goalkeepers. He had already a twisted finger and he made it worse and I didn’t want to take a gamble on it. Eduardo has a recurrence of his hamstring injury."

Long-term absentees Robin Van Persie, Kieran Gibbs and Johan Djourou are also absent but Carlos Vela returns from a knee injury.

Arsenal squad:

Lukasz Fabianski
Vito Mannone
Nicklas Bendtner
Carlos Vela
Theo Walcott
Samir Nasri
Denilson
Aaron Ramsey
Tomas Rosicky
Abou Diaby
Cesc Fabregas
Gael Clichy
Thomas Vermaelen
Emmanuel Eboue
Mikael Silvestre
Sol Campbell
Armand Traore
Bacary Sagna

堅淆

神丹又正選啦

[babykh]

馬田漢臣的「佳作」在周三上演，當半場波圖與阿仙奴踢成 1:1，換邊後僅僅 6 分鐘，馬田漢臣便即作出了兩次備受爭議，而且決定了今場賽事誰勝誰敗的判決。

比賽至 51分鐘，當時阿仙奴老將蘇甘保回傳給門將法比安斯基，後者輕輕一腳控定後雙手接球，馬田漢臣立時作出回傳的吹罰，判波圖獲得一次禁區內的間接自由球。根據國際足協的條列，球員有意回傳予門將，而門傳第一時間用手接皮球，即屬違規回傳，不過蘇甘保在回傳後，法比安斯基有用腳觸控皮球才用雙手拾起，若以國際足協規例作依據則不算違規回傳，惟球證馬田漢臣卻作出吹罰，並判以波圖間接自由球。

作出了首個受爭議的回傳吹罰後，米克爾從馬田漢臣手中取過皮球後便快開這個間接自由球，並將皮球送到法卡奧的腳下，後者輕易射入空門，助球隊以 2:1 擊敗阿仙奴。

在這個快開罰球的過程中，馬田漢臣未有給予阿仙奴球員排出人牆之餘，更「擋」在蘇甘保的面前，令後者無法及時回防。事實上快開罰球在球例之中屬「灰色地帶」，過往阿仙奴也多次憑著快開罰球製造入球，不過在禁區內判以間接自由球，並且沒有給予防守一方築起人牆，且沒有鳴哨的情況下開出簡接自由球實屬罕見，難怪賽後有關這場歐聯 16強首回合的賽事紛爭不止，馬田漢臣又一次成為爭議判決的「主角」。

[babykh]

「球證擋住我去阻止開出罰球！」

周三阿仙奴於歐聯16強首回合作客波圖，結果因為球證馬田漢臣的爭議判決導致「兵工廠」以1:2敗走落後首回合，賽後阿仙奴領隊雲格，以及回巢老將蘇甘保都齊聲破口大罵，後者更鬧爆球證阻擋他！

周三阿仙奴之敗可謂輸在球證漢臣的執法之上，對於回傳門將法比安斯基而被吹罰違規回傳讓波圖獲判禁區內間接自由球，結果被波圖快開罰球讓法卡奧射入空門，致使球隊落敗，賽後「罪人」蘇甘保不滿的說：「球證將間接自由球的開球點定在離門20碼處，然後當波圖球員快開罰球時，球證又擋在我的面前，這無疑讓他們得到優勢，難道要我推開球證去阻止對方嗎？」

對此，「教授」雲格也對球證漢臣的判決極感不滿，更表示寧願輸掉一個12碼比起這樣無辜輸掉球賽來得暢快：「讓波圖獲判間接自由球絕對是一個錯誤的判決，我認為蘇甘保那個回傳並非刻意的，皮球只是碰巧撞在他的腳趾然後滾到法比安斯基的腳下。然後就是那個快開罰球，如果允許離門這樣近快開，球員何來有時間進行防守呢？那樣的判決比起判罰12碼更好，我從來沒有見過這樣的處理手法，你沒有防守能力，也沒有組織防守的時間。」

On Porto's second goal...
"What can you do? The backpass was accidental. Where do you see a defender kick the ball back with his toe? It was completely accidental. The ball hit Sol, it was not on purpose and it has to be intentional to be a free-kick. It is difficult to understand how the referee can interpret that or not see that. Then, on an indirect free-kick, if you allow the team to play quickly, just five metres from the goal, how can the team defend that? It is better than a penalty. It was unbelievable that he allowed Porto to play straight away and push the ball into the net.

"I have never seen that and I have been in the game a long time. It is completely inappropriate that he allows that in such a situation. When the referee gives the free-kick he has to allow us a chance to defend it, otherwise it is better to give a goal straight away.

"From a situation where there was no goal chance at all, and no free-kick as well, the referee gives them just a goal. It is difficult to understand, but maybe I am not intelligent enough."
