Match Reaction v Blackburn

Always nice to scrape a win against quality opposition.

You can only beat what is in front of you. (Or so some wanker told me).

Interested to know why you'd go with Theo over Gervinho. Theo is quicker but Gerv's no slouch. I would say that Theo probably scares defenders more but Gerv is more likely to skin a defender and provide an end product (as long as that end product is a pass).

Update from the ACoN:



If it were up to me, I'd drop them both and pick Benayoun. And I wouldn't have sent Ryo out on loan before trying him. He could've had another Oxlade-type impact.

I don't think Gervinho should be able to walk back into the first team but if Theo starts falling off again, then he should be on rotation with Gervinho. Theo is hot and cold with the end product but Gervinho has no end product at all but is great at beating his man and causing problems.

Would like to see how Yossi does on the flank because he's no central mid player. Would have been good to see Ryo. Both Theo and Gerv are just too hit and miss.

All the bigger names got the headlines, but damn was it good seeing Arteta again. Watched Football first the other night, and he damn well knows how to use the ball.

I quite enjoyed the match.

I quite enjoyed the match.

If people can't enjoy the Arsenal putting 7 past another team, even if it is not one of the top 4, why are they claiming to be Arsenal supporters. Maybe Blackburn where defending poorly but if people aren't getting behind the squad and manager when they score 7 goals - and from 4 different players - then I don't see how they can be supporters.

Yeah. She doesn't post much if at all, one of the old 606ers, used to be MrsLjungberg or summat.

Good to see Rosicky played well, have said since the start of the season he should be starting over Ramsey, who's still too raw and not ready to lead the team yet from an attacking midfield position.
