    Whatever Wenger was doing with Reyes was working well as he helped the Invincibles win the title and then started the next season on fire (7 goals in the first 13 games, including 6 in the first 6). He went to pieces after the Man U game, and unlike the rest of the team never really recovered.

    Most of those goals came either as a striker or right winger. Reyes lost his edge when Wenger moved him to the left. In his last game for us vs Citeh, Wenger actually use him as a striker and he score two goals.

    It seems you are banging your head against a wall Letters. I always thought Reyes look pretty acomplished on the left. Homesickness (lol) was his downfall!!

A lot was going on in the background and I wouldn’t blame Wenger for that, but it would have be nice if we could have protected and supported him a little.

    But on the pitch, I don’t think we done the right thing by playing him on that wing. Like Theo, he took a lot of knocks playing there. I don’t think he’d have taken so many body checks and kicks if he’d have played on the right where he’s cutting in. When speedy wingers are cutting in like that, it forces defenders onto their weaker foot and we they won’t be so quick to dive in. They’ll back up a bit more and try to force you wide by with positioning rather than going in with brute force.

    It’s a shame about Reyes. I had high hopes for that guy. Still remember that great goal against Chelsea and how he tore Man U apart.
