This is Wenger's Arsenal, probably his attempt to put a new Vieira in the squad, however, we're just becoming petty and vindictive. Its the way we're going, Nasri was getting petty and stupid last year, hacking someone or a trip rather than tracking back and Rosicky's the same, constantly hacks people down now. I think a large amount of it is quite simply that we get caught out of position so frequently we don't have a whole lot of choice but to do the cynical tackles to stop attacks.
Kos is prone to rushing out with silly tackles, Song and frimpong are just red cards waiting to happen. Rosicky is getting increasingly worrying and, I know its WAY to early and I haven't seen him enough at all but I can forsee his absolute lack of pace resulting in more than one very late tackle. Wilshire isn't malicious, just very over enthusiastic sometimes, and pretty close to a red card on many occasions already.
I don't think and haven't thought for some time that Arsenal can complain about other players in terms of red cards and fouling. Being fairly physical is one thing, but its not bad, but fouling and bad tackles are the only thing thats bad.......... and Arsenal are pretty bad with that lately.
What an amazing ball.
