Was also impressed with Rosicky ad well. Those two in the middle works. Throw Wilshere in and it looks even better. Arteta and Ramsey have no business playing in the first team. Passenegere that give away the ball cheaply and in dangerous areas. Arteta can't even turn on the ball if he's under pressure from a defender. Rosicky was turning his man all day and Song had the strength to hold them off and the feet to turn them. His technique is underrated.

Bad performances from some but some hopeful ones as well.
I agree with that assessment based on todays game. . . .Song just needs to cut out his mad moments. . . .for ecample his attempt at a head lock bear the end of the game, the ref could have quite easily blown for that and at worst Song would have received second yellow, stupid on a scale of the stamp on Barton especially considering the balance of the game. Not sure if his passing is of a constant quality to take a Cesc like mantle. . .

which is why we need more from Areta, who probably needs more to happen in front of him, unfortunately still getting used to a system that no longer suits the team because it isnt technically gifted enough to play it.

Rosicky now needs to put in more similar performamces before we get excited, no Ramsey was a bonus, he should go bsck yo the drawing board. . . .the CC squad awaits
