The only positive I can see out of this for Arsenal is Almunia's kicking, it's been perfect :p

I think Almunia has made a clear all around improvement this season, last season I wouldn't have opposed replacing him, but he's coming into it this season.
 
Admittedly, the likes of Van Persie and Fabregas are a class above, but defensively, our unit is superior, and I think we have more quality in the final third.


We will see come May.......

I agree you're more organised and strong at the back, but you don't have more quality than Arsenal in the final third. Arshavin, Eduardo, RvP, Adebayor, Walcott are all class.

Not really, because Fabregas has been injured for ages. :p As said, Arsenal have the better team, it just hasn't really been played this season.

You're playing better as a team that's the difference, with the greatest of respect, if we'd played to our potential more this season we wouldn't be worrying about 4th.
 
We haven't really seen enough of Eduardo, and Arshavin hasn't played in the Premier League as yet - Walcott isn't fit enough to clean Ashley Young's boots, added to Emile Heskey, John Carew, Gabby Agbonlahor, James Milner, Marlon Harewood and Nathan Delfouenso - I think we have better depth.

I note you didn't mention the goal machine Niklas Bendtner?!

Okay, we both have opinions :)

I think Arsenal are going to be a different team when the midfield is Rosicky - Fabregas - Denilson - Arshavin - Walcott

Only problem with that is that three of those are out injured. That has been our problem all year and most Arsenal fans would agree that we came into the season understrength if we got injuries. Which we did.

Villa keep going from strength to strength and we seem to be just getting worse. I was optomistic before the game but not so anymore.

But at least eboue will be out for a few games. Ade wont be missed either, he hasnt been producing since he failed to to get his dream move to barca.

Happily swap him for Henry in the summer!
 
A fully fit Arsenal squad is streets ahead of Villa's.

The only area I would say Villa are stronger is their defensive unit and it's organisation, other than that it's Arsenal for me.
 
Fact is, Aston Villa are playing for each other the morale at the club is up there with Man Utd, now compare that with moral at Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal all have had major problems on and off the field.
