In their own way yeh I think so, Arshavin scares the s**t out of defenders, Eduardo hasn't been great but he's still a natural finisher, and Bendy is physical and a threat from set pieces. But tbh DoT the thing with Arsenal is I don't think them 3 need to be that good, as long as they're on the pitch they will offer more quality than what they had out today and with the way Arsenal play that will create more chances for more players to score. Regarding the defence we have to bear in mind Verm werent 100% and Song was playing 5 days ago and only arrived back from ANC on Thursday so he couldn't have been fit. |

I don't think we can have excuses about fitness, maybe with Vermin but in general... you just gotta expect better. I don't know why the players look tired but they do. And they shouldn't. They were just not that good today, probably expected to give United a better game and then looked completely clueless when it didn't happen - almost as if it had nothing to do with them lol |

Stuck up bastard

What is with people saying Eduardo is a natural finisher, since he's come back from injury that's the one part off his game that's not been at all evident imo. |

Actually, when he first came back from his major injury he looked just as sharp as before. However, since getting more niggling injuries, he's been assisting more than scoring. Eduardo is clearly a natural finisher but there's something else in his game right that's preventing him from even taking shots. I wouldn't expect anyone who hasn't seen every game he's played since returning from his serious injury to have seen the difference in his game, though. |

His confidence is knocked cos of that injury and yeh he's not the same player, but as I said with Walcott he'll get it back with time. We're reading too much into the last couple of games, lets not throw the baby out with the bathwater it's not all suddenly turned bad for arsenal after today. They have looked unbeatable for large parts of this season and I'm more impressed with Arsenal this season than I have for long while. Edited by Inglorious BarcaTed, Jan 31 2010, 08:14 PM.

Why not mention when Nani forked his ankle, that looked a stinger. It does hurt though when you kick through and catch someone. |

Was that the time, when he got song booked, because he went down like he was shot by a sniper? 2 minute's later he got up and ran 30 yards perfectly fine. |

Ill come do it to you see how it feels if you like. If you dont think it would of hurt then your naive, had his ankle stamped on in a 50-50. Harsh yellow but doesnt mean it wouldnt hurt. |

Si

So because they both went for the ball, the contact is irrelevant? And your post implied that Nani 'got' Song booked. Song got Song booked, Nani was studded in the ankle area so how was he feigning injury? Think before you post, or better still, do neither. |

He let play go on till Nani started rolling around, then he brought Song back and booked him. Take your United goggles of. |

I dont have United goggles on. I said it was a harsh booking becuase of the nature of a 50-50 but he DID hit him on the ankle. And if you think that doesnt hurt then its a tad silly. |
