Arshavin was his usual outspoken self when he commented on the departure of midfielders Cesc
Fabregas and Samir Nasri. He has said that the Gunners will have to change their playing style in
the wake of the loss of the two players. Arsenal's start to the season has been poor, with the 8-2
loss against [.
The season starts here. The Boss said so? No, the season started at Newcastle and we have one
point out of nine, that's right, one out of nine. Our worst start since Alex James took a drag from
his Woodbine prior to walking onto the Highbury turf (perhaps).
Thankfully much has changed since OT and quite frankly it needed to.

Arsenal arrested their worrying run of form with a narrow 1-0 win over Premier League new-boys
Swansea at the Emirates.
Andrei Arshavin scored an opportunist's goal five minutes before the break after a mistake from
Swans keeper Michel Vorm, but they failed to kill off Swansea, who rallied late on as some
desperate defending and a howling miss from Danny Graham saw the hosts close out the victory.
Arteta – Bright Start but faded.....
Its September 10th, a New dawn, new beginnings, from the ashes of Project Y'sssh and the
dishevelled remains of a team that faced the Old Trafford onslaught, it was Wengers regrouped
band of footballers with a significant number of new recruits, grabbed on the supermarket trolley
dash on 31st August, who took to the field, ready to drag Arsenal back to the upper echelons of the
premier league.
Arsenal 1-0 Swansea
Back in the good old days, going one up at Highbury meant you could exhale and start enjoying the
afternoon. You might not get much more entertainment but you could be pretty confident that you'd
get the win.
No use comparing eras though: times have changed.
The Swansea game wasn't the easiest to watch, I have to admit. We looked nervous at the back and
uncomfortable throughout the 90 minutes; in fact we looked like a team that was still struggling to
come to terms with having the absolute stuffing knocked out of us by one of our greatest rivals
which was fair enough.
