Well as a gooner im just glad to see the win after soooooo many draws. Hopefully Robinho can score a hat trick tomorrow!
Robinho and probably Bellamy aren't supposed to be playing, depends who they go with tbh, SWP is a joke, Zabeleta has actually looked better the last two games being mostly attacking, but if Richards is out too and he's at right back, well, then the team is screwed. Will be a very hard one for them to win tbh, if Robinho manages to play his home form has been brilliant this year.
One thing I forgot to say is that Arshavin is ******* good and I absolutely can't wait 'til he's fit and has Cesc behind him. I'm getting too excited.
He does look quality, the only trouble is we now have Ade, Eduardo, Bendtner, Vela, Arshavin, Theo and RVP as strikers, of which Wenger loves Ade and all the others look pretty damned good. But for me Eduardo is world class as the furthest forward finisher and RVP is great anywhere.
Its another reason why for me, with the current central mids we have, that Eboue should play the DM and RVP whose played on the right before, could slot in there great as it means we can simply have more quality throughout the team than playing Song/denilson. I honestly can't see any reason why he'd buy Arshavin when he loves Ade so much, when/where is Arshavin gonna play. He looked more in for more of the game today because he was further up the field and central, he's clearly not a winger. Ok, if we were man U have a full squad with reserves everywhere then yeah, improve our backups and allow rotation with better quality, but with Djourou as cover at the back, and Denilson and Song starting loads of games the money was wasted on Arshavin. He's going to get a bum deal at Arsenal tbh, he won't play as often as he deserves probably and he won't in any way end up being our saviour so fans will resent that we bought him over a DM.
SEriously we played the worst team in the prem tonight and we were still under some heavy defensive pressure and they walked through out central midfield pair all game without any trouble at all. The second eboue went off we became a calamity down the right hand side, its partially that Ramsey has seemed really weak lately(even though often in central mid in preseason he won loads of tackles???), and partially that a Sagna/eboue right side gives us massive defensive strength that side.
Not impressed that RVP as my FF captain is not playing.
