A player like Jose Enrique, at only 25 and only 6M, would have been great for us and stepped right into the starting 11 far ahead from the not-yet-projects of a player that are Gibbs and Traore.

was hoping for a draw before Frimpong went off and 0:0 was on the cards as there was no attacking directness.
With the state of the team I would try and play two up front but we wont do this in our next two games as we will have to load the midfield
The rookies played well, Miquel was lost at times but stood up well and Frimpong and Jenkinson were good too
Verms was immense and the defence again looked solidish (didnt see Euro game) but the midfield and attack apart from the odd shot looked average, RvP already looks like he is carrying a weight (captaincy?) and Arshavin/Walcott were not good and should have been taken off before
Nasbo did as much as I imagined he would, obvious we wont see him mid week, well not unless the rumours are true. . . .lastly Wenger looks shot through, we are going to have to stick with him for a while cos there arent any reolacements to be had. . . .unless Bruce Rioch wants his job back. . . .remember him?
This is the worst we have been in 15 years
