I’m a little tired of the Song jokes, from you and others. Can we give the lad a chance? He’s 20 and has looked quite solid in defense, and looked great for Charlton last year. How about not judging someone so young? Why not slate Theo too while you’re at it?

a good article, and here’s an omen for you; the last time arsenal won the league (2003/04) tottenham stayed around the relagation zone all season, and arsenal finished with exactly double tottenham’s points, and it looks like it this season!

there is no escaping that Ade brings alot to the team as a awhole but as much as he does everyone else does the same but also has some they bring individually to the set up.
we cant have somebody that tall but cant head the ball on target most of the time i jus think he is jus plain lazy..think at how he can go shoulder to shoulder with most defenders and be able to chest and bring the ball down after a pass from the back,then explain how he is muscled out of gettin something substantial on a cross into the box..i mean look at Kenwyne Jones he is class and i believe Sunderland wont hold to him tht long,between big strikers like Jones,Drogba and Crouch Adebayor is most close to Crouch the both so lanky but cant head the ball,if you can score with ur feet then that wudnt worry us bout heading the ball but if u so poor on the ground and in the air you must have some mad assists to still be in the team that tops the pl…

I wish people would get off Adebayor’s back. OK, he’s going through a lean spell in terms of goals, but I don’t think he’s ever going to be prolific. What he brings to the team in terms of creating space for other players, holding the ball up and bringing our midfielders into play is priceless. Notice how a lot of goals are coming from midfield? If you think a raw Bendtner could lead the line anywhere as effectively as Adebayor has been doing then your a fool.

Villa, NC, Boro away we can and will win all. Chelsea will be resurgent and tough but we’ll do this too. We’ll blow Spurs away. Pompey and Everton A will be tough but I back us to get at least two draws. Role on 2008 !

I really hope that this article is still valid come January as we have a ferocious league fixture list in December that would’ve seen us tumble in recent years. We will soon see what we are really made of.

01 Dec Villa (away)
05 Dec Newcastle (away)
09 Dec Boro (away)
16 Dec Chelsea (home)
22 Dec Spurs (home)
26 Dec Pompey (away)
29 Dec Everton (away)

Can we come through this lot unscathed!! Here’s hoping. Up the Arse

I think there’s exaggeration about how wonderful Gallas has been cause quite frankly the best defender at Arsenal is TOURE.

I think Toure deserves to be captain!

Almunia has certainly shown his metal. I was quite shocked when Lehmann signed a new deal cause he was displaying poor goal keeping near the end of the last seasoin but almunia has been a revelation.

You did not mention ALEX HLEB. The guy has been awesome. Has been more consaistent than Fabregas (although he does lacks goals) but Hleb does play a big part in fabregas goals. Examples are his goals against man city, liverpool and against slavia prague.

I still think Arsenal tend to over pass compared to other teams in the pl and cl.By now all teams know how the gunners play and prepare accordingly ie. hit on the break like MU and most teams in the cl.
Compared to the double seasons Arsenal are taking an awful passing bf shooting.
My gut feeling is most teams know how the gunners play and prepare mass defence hoping for a ball from defrnce to catch Arsenal.
Idon’t know AW’s game plan of excessive passing. Perhaps to tire oppistion defenders.
