throwing 9 new players into a team is going to cause problems, throwing one or two into a settled team wont do much. when jenksion was rb, he fitted in well just like frimpong and coq have.Originally Posted by Arsenal Royal

Fabianski is fine as a backup. I didn't know he'd gone off injured, not really been watching tbh, only turned it on about 30 minutes in. I'd rather have a better partner for RvP than a top quality 3rd choice 'keeper.
Embarrassing performance all-round. Perfectly fine with getting beaten if we compete well like in the Man City game...but to gift the opposition two goals like that just shows that the learning process that the first-team seemed to have gone through hasn’t filtered through to the squad players. That panicky mess that we created about 5/6 times is not normal. Even on off days - shit like that doesn’t happen to good teams. It has nothing to do with playing ability and everything to do with an unstable mentality. Djourou and co. just start bricking it and so hesitation sets in. Grow a pair ffs.
I don’t know why Arsene chooses to play Arshavin. What’s he going to gain from it? Why not try out Park or some youngster we don’t know much about? At least we’d see somebody who might give a shit.
Second half, expect to see the opposition injured on the floor (read: time-wasting) and the game fizzling out.
this is what happens when a 'team' don't play together regularly, they can play well one game, shite the next. means nothing at all.
I'd say it's pretty unlikely, even with our injury record, that we'd ever have to put out a side like this in the PL. I've seen some of these players in PL games and surrounded by better players they do OK. All together and they're struggling. It's really not that important although I hope Wenger's giving them a bollocking and we make it respectable 2nd half.
I've never seen Vito Mannone and Ezio Auditore in the same room. In fact I think Big V was trying the 'jump-kill' move for what turned out to be the second goal....
Well that was crap. We can't cope with their pressing game. Djourou has had a mare. Mannone makes a huge mistake in his one chance.
so next time when one of our regular defenders gets substituted by djourou you'll stay calm and confident he'll do the job? because clearly I won't!
yes because he has done a job. chelsea he did well, norwich i htink he played and did well. players come in and around better players who are much more gelled together and are fine
he's played a few times in the league recently and looked ok. you have to admit though, that manone was
