By 1970's Gooner We all crucified him. Some of us thought he was loosing the plot. He brought on
Arshavin against Man Utd and we lost that game. But he brought on Arshavin today and the little
Russian did in 15 or so minutes what he practically failed to do all season. He produced a
wonderful cross in between the central defenders for Henry to knock in at ease!

By 1970's Gooner Fabiansky Needs to improve his kicking. Other than that had a good game. Came out
to collect the high balls when he could and relieved the pressure that we all feel when crosses
come in. 6 Coquelin Improves with every game and plays with confidence. With Jenkinson still out I
think he will be a very able understudy to Sagna.
By 1970's Gooner Savic is a young 21 year old Manchester City centre back. He has been a starter
for his team in recent games because the first team choice centre backs Kolo Toure (Afica Cup of
Nations) and Kompany (red card) are unavailable. The young lad has looked out of sorts. His
mistakes are costing Manchester City.

By 1970's Gooner Sczesny Couldn't do much about the two goals. Saved well when called upon to do
so. 8 Djourou Shouldn't start again as a full back. And I don't see him starting as a centre back
again either. He should be sold in the summer as part of a general clear out that is badly needed
at the club.

By 1970's Gooner I call it as I see it and after Arshavin's poor performance against Swansea I
shudder to contemplate what will happen when Nani begins to terrorise young Miquel on the left hand
side of Arsenal's defence. Add
to this the likely possibility that Arsenal will be without Arteta and you then face the
possibility that we will be suffering in

By 1970's Gooner I call it as I see it. And Walcott looked slightly out of touch against QPR. His
crosses left a lot to be desired and he rearely got beyond his man. There was a better balance in
the team of course when compared to when Benayoun was deployed on the side in the game against
Wolves.
By 1970's Gooner How will Henry fit into this Arsenal team? I was at the Emirates Cup as a guest of
Arsenal Football Club and I had the chance to see Henry play against us. I was not impressed. He
played as the front man in a 4 5 1 formation and was not up to it. He was too slow and didn't have
the pace to chase down balls.
By 1970's Gooner I call it as I see it. And I didn't like what I saw developing before my eyes
during the game against Wolves. Granted they are my second team that I support (due to family
connections) but at the end I was left feeling very disappointed with Arsenal's performance.
Firstly the players' attitude was completely wrong.
