Arsenal v Chelsea Match Reaction

[Marc Overmars]

No point protecting Elmo, the league is full of shit kickers, he'll face a new challenge every week regardless. He's played in Europe for a couple of seasons so I'm sure he's familiar with a different level of intensity and quality. Might even have played against Chelsea if he was with them when they faced Basel? But anyway, all he needs to be able to demonstrate right now is some positional awareness and he immediately becomes a better option than Flamini and Ramsey. Without even seeing him play I have faith that he won't be as braindead as either of those 2.

New players come into this league every year and make explosive impacts. Why must we always wrap our lot in cotton wool?
