    We'll coach that reckless enterprising play out of him soon enough. If he's not taking 100 touches and then passing it 5 yards to someone else (preferably an Arsenal player), he's obviously not playing to the team's strengths.

    Rubbish as usual. Can't defend, can't string any passes together and therefore can't create any chances.

    Where has all the quality gone?

    On the plus side, we're winning. 45 mins away from a big upset.

    Bring on Coq for Frimpong and Ju for Arshavin and RvP for Chamakh.

    I think this formation is what causes us the biggest problems, LB/RB always caught out of position meaning we are always overrun. Bring 442 back and use the strikers as the outlet.

    Oh yes, agree. We have tons of problems in the club but defense is Arsene's problem alone. We have Sagna (best RB IMO), Per (German intl), Song (above avg CB) and a Brazilian intl playing LB.. we shouldnt be looking like a deer caught in headlights whenever the ball is with Olympiakos. Forget Olympiakos, we shouldnt look as clueless as that against Blackburn.

    Funny thing is.. as soon as you enter emirates stadium, you read "the deeper the foundations (defense), the stronger the fortress (team)". And we as a team have the shakiest foundation.. go figure!

    HT 2-1

    Oxo looks great when we can get him in the game. He has pace, can beat his man, gets to the byline, can cross, can shoot. Fuck me - did we luck out here and pick up a decent player by mistake? The board could get a lot of money for this guy in a couple of years.

    Obviously (and all joking aside) Chamakh is just garbage. How many more games does this guy get before we buy a decent striker?

    But even worse than Chamakh is our defence. A total shambles. I can clearly see why we aren't going for a defensive coach - none will come because they know the task has become impossible. Zero defending, Chesney exposed over and over again. At least the young kid has done well where the experienced pros have been utterly shown up.

    Rosicky is finished as a player. One good performance a season is not enough.

    Arteta is good in the middle but nobody is making any runs or making themselves available when he's looking to distribute.

    Frimpong has spent most of the half struggling with positional problems.

    All in all we should be several goals up but our long standing weak point, the defence, has kept Olympicos in the game and has given them enough encouragement they may even pinch something.

    Yep, that is 2014's big transfer payday.
    If you don’t send this signature to ten people, you will become a Spurs fan.

    For their goal, how was that cunt able to stroll into the box and head the ball as if he was in training?

    I've pretty much given up all hope of ever seeing defensively sound Arsenal under Wenger again.
