The second half of this player review now, looking at our players who were decent, but not great
this season so far, for several reason. We also look at our younger players who made their debuts
this term.
Santos' 2nd most meaningful contribution this season (after his goal at Chelsea, of course.
Arseblog has teamed up with Thomas Cook Sport, official travel partner of Arsenal, to offer a
double Christmas treat for four lucky fans. We've got a pair of tickets for the Barclays Premier
League games against Wolves on Monday 26th December 2011 and another pair for the QPR game on
Saturday 31st December 2011.
How can you not love Queens Park Rangers this year (in a fantastic Premiership campaign
nonetheless).
Huh?
They head up back to the top flight.
They procure the ever-docile Joey Barton.
Armand Traore behaves like Jose Boswingwa on mushrooms with a shaved unibrow he shares the
assist lead with Barton for a grand total of.

Throughout the day, the QPR Report Messageboard has news updates,
comments and perspectives - even links to other board comments of interest re QPR matters (on and
off the field) along with football (and ONLY football) topics in general.

QPR manager Neil Warnock has vowed to fine Armand Traore 'the most money that he possibly can'
after the left-back was sent-off in the final minute of the Hoops' 1-1 draw with Aston Villa for a
headlong, reckless lunge on Marc Albrighton.
The dismissal came minutes before Richard Dunne's unfortunate own-goal equaliser, with QPR 1-0
down and chasing the game as the clock ticked over into stoppage time and Warnock (who was seen to
grab Traore's arm and administer a few choice words as he made his way from the pitch) was not best
pleased with his players' conduct, telling the BBC after the game:
"I just thought he was a disgrace, I will fine him as much as I possibly can.

An injury time own goal by Richard Dunne cancelled out a second half penalty by Barry Bannan to
end yet another game in stalemate, but a win would have been thoroughly undeserved.
The first half is not worth talking about. It was as bad as anything I've seen from Villa in
recent years and, let's face it, we've seen some poor stuff lately.
It's all change at the back for me as Kieran Gibbs seems to have lost his place to Andre Santos.
Who knows what is going on at Arsenal but the Brazilian did but up good points against Rovers, and
gets Bolton at home this week. Another flying (former) Arsenal fullback, Armand Traore, gets the
nod too.
With Kieran Gibbs and Armand Traore both disappointing for Arsenal over the last few seasons and
with Gael Clichy leaving for Manchester City, a left-back was a must for the Gunners as they
welcome Andre ...
New Queens Park Rangers signing Shaun Wright-Phillips has spoken about his determination to be
successful at his new club, proving some people wrong in the process.
The England winger joined the newly promoted club from big-spending Manchester City on transfer
deadline day for an undisclosed fee.
Peter Crouch might be on his way to Stoke
Peter Crouch might be Stoke bound with only personal terms to be ironed out. Sebastian Bassong
is now a QPR man. Alan Hutton and Jermaine Jenas have been strongly linked to Aston Villa. Wilson
Palacios and Roman Pavlyuchenko could also be on their way out.

In the matches where Manchester United hammered Arsenal by a score of 8-2 while Manchester City
demolished Spurs 5-1 on Sunday, both Wenger and Redknapp set their teams out to be too attacking
and too open. Both managers will need to bring in several players to stop the suffering.

Traore will not get to play with the other Park
Being an Arsenal fan has never been easy. It will a whole lot worse from now until the end of
the transfer window. Just a day after our drubbing at Old Trafford, the rumours merchant has
already been out in full force. Best to do it according to the position on the pitch, here
goes.
Yes, it really happened. Oh shit.
First up, United were absolutely stunning. The majority of the goals were of the highest class.
Hats off, caps doffed etc. etc.
Secondly, Arsenal were absolutely shambolic, there was no leadership, little passion or desire,
and no defence what so ever.
Armand Traore is set to leave Arsenal, after it was revealed that the left back is set for a
move to Queens Park Rangers.
The French-born Senegalese defender, who can also play as a winger, will have talks and a
medical at QPR today, in the wake of yesterday's loss at Old Trafford.
The left back made just 13 senior appearances for The Gunners, in a career that saw him go out
on loan to Portsmouth and Juventus.
Opening the floodgates
That was painful, disappointing and utterly embarrassing result. It was an abject a display from
an Arsenal side that I'd ever seen. That was the heaviest defeat in Arsene Wenger's reign and shows
the gap that we have compared to one of our major rival for domestic glory.
Liverpool may never have a better time to end their miserable away run against Arsenal but manager
Kenny Dalglish insists his team will not under-estimate Arsene Wenger's side.
The sale of captain Cesc Fabregas to Barcelona earlier this week and the impending departure of
Samir Nasri to Manchester City have only added to the Gunners' problems.

Match Preview: Arsenal vs Liverpool
Liverpool will travel to the Emirates tomorrow in an attempt to rub salt into the Gunners'
wounds. Arsenal will be without several of their first team regulars, most notably Cesc Fabregas
and Samir Nasri who went in search of greener pastures, which makes this the perfect time to play
the London outfit as the club goes through a stage of sheer turmoil.
Old friends reunite at the Emirates, with Kenny Dalglish's side looking to take all three points
from Arsenal at their home ground for the first time since the twenty pixels that make up Titi
Camara's body gave Liverpool the win at Highbury in the 1999-2000 season. Any points against
Arsenal have been hard to come by, but this fixture has been an absolute beast.
Arsene Wenger has renewed his interest in Gary Cahill after Thomas Vermaelen was injured in the
defeat to Benfica. That's according to the Mail, which reports that chief scout Steve Rowley went
to the Reebok Stadium on Friday to assess Cahill in Bolton's 1-0 defeat by Levante. The paper says
it is a "clear indication" the club are ready to ramp up their interest.

Liverpool is ready sign Lyon defender Aly Cissokho in a £10million deal, after Arsenal manager
Arsene Wenger ruled themselves out of the running.
The Reds are in the hunt for a left-back and the 23-year-old ticks all the Anfield boxes and are
keen to wrap a deal soon.
The France international was on the radar of Arsenal following the sale of Gael Clichy to
Manchester City, but Wenger has ruled out any move.
After Gael Clichy forced his move to Man City by refusing to sign a new contract at Arsenal, Arsene
Wenger said that he wouldn't be buying a replacement as he wanted to promote Kieran Gibbs to the
first team. But today he has also said that Thomas Vermaelen and Armand Traore will also be in

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has announced that he does not expect a new left-back to join
Gervinho once the club concludes its summer signings in August.
Wenger, who has repeatedly insisted that he will hold on to the midfield duo of Cesc Fabregas
and Samir Nasri, couldn't do much when Manchester City prized Frenchman Gael Clichy away from the
Emirates last week.

Fans in the background will cheer him as one of their own now
Let's start with the obvious. Gael Clichy has moved on from Arsenal Football Club. His departure
was confirmed yesterday and Manchester City are his current employers. That concludes his 8 years
association with us and he becomes the last of the Invincibles to leave the club.
Armand Traore's will find out in the coming days whether he'll be staying at Arsenal,...

Liverpool is reportedly planning an ambitious move to sign Arsenal left back Gael Clichy. Contract
talks between the French international and the North London club have broken down and with one year
left year on his Gunners deal Anfield director of football Damien Comolli is hoping to lure the 25
year old to Merseyside.

A return to Genoa for manager Gigi Del Neri after leaving Sampdoria for Juventus in the summer.
Both teams wasted chances toward the end of the match but and had to accept the 0-0 draw result.
Even the 1 point came with a cost as both sides suffered additional injuries. Things didn't start
well for Juventus as Armand Traore hobbled off after 2 minutes with a muscular problem, he would be
replaced.

Gentlemen, you may proceed as normal to the blog. Ladies, please proceed single file to the
classroom where you will be taught the offside rule, the difference between a 'number 10′ and a
'false 9′ as well as the difference between Djimi and Armand Traore, how to titter in agreement
with the menz and, of course, when to make a cup of tea (with biscuits and/or cake).
