Arsenal striker Wellington Silva scored a brace and made a goal for Emmanuel Frimpong as the Gunners dispatched Dagenham and Redbridge in a behind-closed-doors game at London Colney.
The Brazilian has been training with the club since last Monday and he was handed a start in a youthful second-string side against a mixed Dagenham XI. He scored the opener before playing in Emmanuel Frimpong for the second. Silva then wrapped up the scoring in a 3-1 win.

The most talents player in the dutch league is Moussa Dembele of AZ Alkmaar. He is a mixture of Henry and Messi. He is very smooth and elegant on the ball and can glide past players.
comment by shane
Milo..you are probally right.
comment by shane
On the part about the way I talk. On the Toivonen thing tho, I personally felt the same about Berg. He scored alot of tap ins and sloppy goals. He isnt doing very well in germany either.
comment by Milo
Well, I’ve been ripped from nose to balls on here before, and I’ll readily admit my faults, so it’s no big deal man. Who am I to say?? I mean really, I got the biggest mouth out of anyone I know.
comment by Bedeuro
Thanks Milo,
Ola Toivonen has a better Dutch league record than RVP lol,
Suarez, I like him, he wins games , even if he does dive,
34 IN 31 isnt a bad record, better than Klaas Jan Huntelaar, and we all supposedly want him to sign dont we.
comment by shane
I do get a little frusterated tho when people argue back with just wrong information and wont stop…like the guy that said Bayern play a 4-3-3. Even when I told him the exact line up they have been starting and then come to find out he didnt even watch the games, he just read an article. I will always have my same attitude in those arguements but yah , i do need to understand that people have different opinions on players and who is to say it is right or wrong.
comment by Bedeuro
Chu Young works his butt off every game, He has a good background, rarely in the paper, and only is for his footballing performances,
Ruiz works hard as well, and FC Twente seems to be making good strikers now.
And Agbonlahor, well we all know about him.
comment by Bedeuro
I mean Ola has a better goal to game ratio than RVP,
What Info am I getting wrong?
If you not referring to me plz say so, IF U arnt then im soz
comment by shane
Bedeuro…Alfonso Alves scored 45 goals in 39 games in the dutch league. Remember the guy for Middlesbrough. He scored 4 in 31 games for them last year.
comment by shane
Ruiz is a winger.
comment by Bedeuro
So because he screwed up Toivonen, Ruiz, Suarez, Balasz, ect will as well?
They are younger as well, so they may edapt quicker, I know the dutch league is bad, but there is a lot of talent there regardless.
comment by shane
Bedeuro….”If you not referring to me plz say so, IF U arnt then im soz” ?
comment by Bedeuro
I’m referring to you.
Ruiz can play Striker as well,
He plays both, like RVP used to.
comment by shane
I know there is talent, I just am saying you have to look at there performances in when they play the big teams in holland thats all. Scoring verse the minnows doesnt meen much.
comment by shane
I have only seen him as a winger but yah I agree he looks pretty good.
comment by shane
He scored a fantastic double against usa in the final qualifier.
comment by shane
….”If you not referring to me plz say so, IF U arnt then im soz” I dont know what you meen
comment by Bedeuro
I do, I watched more when I was in England, but Its harder to watch in the U.S
I would want to see more of Ruiz, (and Toivonen)
comment by Milo
Yeah i have to admit I fell for that Afonso Alves guy!! :S lol. I’d never seen him play and when i looked at the stats I couldn’t believe it. It’s such a friggin shame that the Dutch league isn’t quite what it used to be. yes there was always Ajax and Feyenoord and to some extent, PSV, but the dutch teams were successful in Europe a lot. I mean a player like Marc Overmars came from Go Ahead Eagles, and now they have been stuck in the second division for a while. So other teams have developed some world class talent in Holland. They have such classy players that it is too bad they don’t stay for longer and help make the league stronger. I know we talked about this yesterday, but it still bothers me. I always root for the Dutch national team. Partly because of the relationship between Holland and Canada regarding ww11, the type of football they preach, and partly because of those friggin awesome Oranje uniforms!!:D
comment by Bedeuro
Shane, what?
Why are you quoting me?
Yes im talking to you,
comment by Bedeuro
LOL Milo,
The Dutch league is good if you want High Scoring games.
comment by shane
I think Belgium and Holland should form 1 league. Do you have Espn360.com?
comment by shane
Milo…Yah a couple days ago I watched the 1972 ajax team destroy Intermilan in the champs league final.
comment by Bedeuro
Nope they shouldnt, they have a right to have their own leagues. They are separate , sovereign countries, ( as independant as you can b in the EU)
No I dont,
Do you pay for it? Is it free?
I just watch highlights on Goal4Replay,
Or my Dads friends house, who get Setanta or ESPN.
Im not a big TV watcher
comment by Bedeuro
Radamel Falcao, looks good.
comment by Milo
Ahhh yeah that’s an awesome idea Shane!! I don’t know how those two countries get along though, but seeing that they co-hosted Euro 2000 they should be pretty cool with one another! That’d be a lot of teams, but they’d sort that out too. It would strengthen the competition as well. It would be hard to figure out qualification for European tournaments though. Something like 2 from each country maybe, for the Champions League?? Like it is now actually.
comment by Bedeuro
Milo, Shane, Its a bad idea,
Its like saying the U.S and Canada and Mexico form 1 league,
Or England , N.I , Wales, Scotland do the same,
They wouldnt like it.
Maybe it would be a good tournament , but not a league.
comment by shane
With comcast , i know it is, but i am not sure. They have alot of games tho.
There federations have discussed merging the leagues. It would only help to develope both nations. There is nothing wrong with it. Toronto plays in an American based league.
comment by Bedeuro
Because Canada’s league isnt very good at the moment.
Maybe it would strengthen the league,
I think they should just do a cup, like top 5 from each country plays each other in a knockout cup.
comment by Milo
I don’t have ESPN or Setanta. I would have to have Satellite I think:S Can’t afford that. A provincial network picks up selected EPL games on Saturdays and Sundays, so if i wanna choose which matches I watchI have to rely on the internet. Thank god they are showing the Chelsea match!!:D Another local italian (Toronto) network picks up 2 Serie A games on Sundays. I usually fall asleep watching those, unless there is a player or two I really want to watch, or a team that could be future competition for Arsenal in the Champions League. lol
comment by shane
No its not. It is like saying canada join the american league. Because it helps both countries. Which they do. Mecixo have a quality league.
comment by Bedeuro
Same quality as the Dutch and Belgium leagues.
comment by shane
There is a streaming wbsite i go to, it has most games plus has a download for a video player that has what seems like every channel in the world on it.
comment by Bedeuro
Whats it called?
comment by shane
Actually the depth in the Mexican league is better then both Holland and Belgium.
comment by Bedeuro
What it called?
comment by shane
livefooty.doctor-serv.com
comment by Bedeuro
Thank-you Shane,
Yeah , Mexicos league has more depth, but less money.
comment by Milo
I use my p2p.eu to see games but it really sucks sometimes. I’ll have to write that website down and try it when I want to watch a match that isn’t on television!!:D
comment by Milo
Ahhh yeah!! I just went to that site and i can already see it is better than the one I was using!! lol. Thanks a lot Shane!!:D
comment by shane
I dont know if they have less money. They sign players like humberto sauzo the chilean top striker. Cabanas (who was recently shot in the head) lead the south american qualifiers in goals, he plays for mexico. A mexican team beat out wigan for Jackson Martinez of columbia.
comment by shane
no problem.
comment by shane
I also down load games from fbtz.com. People upload them after the game is over and thats where i get old games like with Maradona and cruyff, etc.
comment by Milo
Are you serious?? i’m gonna spend all friggin day watching the classic games if it works on my computer!!:D Man I’m pumped!! I only could use youtube for that, and I very often couldn’t find what I was looking for haha.
comment by shane
I bought an external hard drive, so i can have alot of games.
comment by Milo
Hey Shane it won’t let me register on fbtz.com. Do I just wait?? or maybe my computer won’t permit me to:S I have no idea. i actually don’t know the first thing about technology even thoughI’m young:S lol.
comment by shane
I cant remember, it has been a while. I think it you fill out the info and it sends you a confrimation email.
comment by Milo
Oh,Ok i’ll try that!:D
comment by shane
OIC, it says registration has been disabled. sorry dude.
comment by Milo
No it still says that registration has been disabled by the administrator, so I’ll try again a few hours later or tomorrow! Still it looks brilliant if I can get it to work!!:D
comment by shane
Yah , today a guy posted about 35 barcelona games from the 60s until now.
comment by Sooth
Milo, you have to wait until the summer. They normally do a cull of inactive accounts and allow new registrations then.
comment by Milo
Oh really?? Ok thanks Sooth!:D At least I know I might still have a chance to create an account and see it all in the future sometime:D
comment by Harsh
What are you guys smoking? We’ve been counter-attacking all season.
Fabregas two goals vs Everton, Fabregas vs Wolves (classic Arsenal counterattack, only Sagna, Cesc, RVP involved), Fabregas and Diaby vs Alkmaar, Fabregas vs Aston Villa, Carragher’s og vs Liverpool, these were all counterattacks I can remember off the top of my head. And we’ve had plenty more.
