RvP's winner was amazing on Sunday but Chesney's 'keeping (and a slice of good luck!) kept us in it. RvP is clearly our MVP this season but the rest of them play their parts. Without him we wouldn't be as good, clearly, but you could say that about a top player in most teams.
that argument is completely invalid and completely ridiculous.
rvp has scored 50% of our goals in premier league this season.
how many has kos scored? or chesney? or chamakh? or gervinho? or anyone else for matter?
he's needed passes to score but he's still had to put them away.
rvp is clearly more valuable than ANY other arsenal player in the team but if you're going to sit there and try to deny it in order to catalyse your argument, then dont even bother debating with me![]()
that comeback ability has been present in wenger's teams for the past few years, perhaps not the extent we have seen in the past few weeks as the previous comebacks were usually undermined by a panicky defence.
there are two kinds of mental resilance we need to have and one we have failed to develop since 05. Standing up and fighting the odds is one thing but to lead from the front and not be scared to look back is a quality not too many people, let alone groups have. without that being developed somewhere within the team, being naturally or through new players, it is a strength needed to win a trophy again.
what a load of bollocks. yes rvp has scored and scored loads, but without a great defender like kos or a good keeper like chesney then the goals matter fuck all. on saturday rvp scored two, both goals came from two brilliant assists not just rvp magic. he didnt do it on his own. he could have scored two on saturday but without chesney we would have lost. it is a valid argument
