Hello all, looking forward to the game today – i fancy a good win.
First up Arsene Wenger thinks that we have emerged from a ‘sad period’ at the club, starting with the Eduardo injury of which tomorrow is the anneversary of the event. I’m of the opinion that the win against Cardiff marked a big rise of spirits at the club, and it can’t be a coincidence that it was the return of our Crozillian striker. After this, Arsene Wenger called for the tackle to be left in the past as it does neither Eduardo or Taylor any good to keep bringing it up.
The injuries seem to be, gradually, petering out with the last of our big guns returning in 3-4 weeks time, that being Cesc. Wenger said;
“Rosicky looks very good in training, he looks unbelievably strong. Fabregas looks good, Diaby will come back. Rosicky is three weeks, Cesc four weeks, Theo two weeks.â€
All are looking very good in training according to the boss and it will be a massive, massive lift to get them back. Lets hope and prey there are no setbacks for any of them along the way.
Now, onto our angry African that goes by the name of ‘pass master’. Wenger, once again, has defended the guy and said that Eboue’s apology makes everything better..
“On the first yellow card, he was not aggressive, he was clumsy. On the second yellow, he was guilty. He knows he has been treated like somebody who is guilty and he’s apologised for that.”
So if i went out and found the nicest car i could find and stuck a brick through its windscreen, but then left a note saying sorry it would be fine?
Wenger actually loves this guy, WHY?
*Eboue punches player*
“im sorry boss im sorry! i’m talented but i just wanted to win so so so badly it all boiled over and i got myself sent off again! – i won’t do it again boss i promise!”
*runs to Wenger*
“Ohh bless you Manu, i’m sorry that ref was such a bastard. You will play zee first game once your suspension ends”
*hugs Wenger*
“Thats top boss! cheers!”
-First game back
*THWACK! Eboue punches keeper*
Its the Ebou-a-go-round. What does Wenger see in him? If he starts Eboue over Andrey i might just get a little angry, after all, who is the talented one?
Eboue of course! Wenger seems to think so;
He has been punished, he has learnt from that, he is still a young player and he is a talented player.â€
grrrr…
Arsene has talked up Andrey though, comparing him to Freddie Ljungberg, Maradonna and Pele in the ….height…stakes! If he is half as good as the latter two and as good as the former i will be one happy bunny!
“Yes he is quite small,†said the manager. “I think Arshavin is 5ft 6ins. But what is amazing in football is that people are always concerned about size.
“But if you take the best players in the world you had Maradona who was 5ft 7in and Pele, 5ft 7ins – so it is not a handicap.â€
No pressure there then! Poor bloke ain’t even played yet! When it comes to him settling in Arsene praises his characteristics and considers them perfect for a Russian to adapt in this country, hopefully they are because he will probably become a very important mainstray in this side. Wenger commented,
“You can never be sure 100 per cent about any player, but he has personality, class and vision. In football those are the most important things. Yes, there has always been a question mark about whether Russian players would make it over here or not. I believe there is a culture-shock. It is not like coming from Wales! But I have watched him many times over the seasons. It wasn’t only at the Euros, I saw him against Munich, Real Madrid and a few other games. Also Russia is a massive country. He played for years with a club which wasn’t successful but in the last few years everyone has started to speak about Zenit.  Today, he is a super player in Russia and that is not easy. It means you’re an outstanding player and you must have some talent.â€
Right, on the game later i think we should start with a midfield of Nasri, Denilson, Song and Arshavin – Im saying that because the defence of Sagna, Toure, Gallas and Clichy is probably a certainty along with our strike force of Van Persie and Bendtner. Arshavin starting would be fantastic, and Vela coming on on the hour mark would be even better.
I predict a 3 or 4-0 win for us today. It is crucil that we do not throw away more points or it would be certain curtains for the season.
Up the Gunners,

Dont forget we have a marvellous tradition of Russians playing for us. Remember Louzny ? and Stepanovs ( ok nearly Russian) I rate Ebooue right up there with them.
You know if you tell AW he is wrong he will dig his toes in
and try to prove to the world he is never wrong. Perhaps we should start an Ebooue for England campaign, he’ll be off to Portsmouth before you can say on me ead son
I disagree with your midfeild, i think Arshavin should play in the middle with Song, while Nasri and Vela are on the wings. Vela was very impressive against Cardiff, 2nd best palyer behind Eduardo. I agree you with Eboue, if Eboue starts he will get a very hard time from the crowd, which is a massive understatement. Eboue should only be cover for Sagna and that is it.
GunnerPete – Its not what i want, its what they will probably play!
Fucking shite performance today
Arsharvin played well though
– all i was reading on the minute by minute thing on the BBC was all the shots comming from Arsharvin.
RVP almost scored a good one – on another day with the wind goin in the opposite direction that woulda gone in… maybe.
nahh was a decent foot wide, he should have finished it. We were utterly shit, Arshavin was lively but the best of the lot.
Bring back Cesc
Bring back Eduardo… he’s what we need imo – we need someone who can actually find the back of the net – Adebayor and Bendter are both the same – blind.
When Robin passed up that chance my exact thoughts were, Eddy would have finished it
