But with Kolo in the side, he gives us that extra bit of energy and urgency we need to steal late winners. Like Gallas, Kolo is good at things like pushing the team forward and causing problems. A point about Senderos though, apart from the Birmingham game he's been poor - so in that respect he has got something to prove while Kolo is away. Against Spurs and Sevilla in particular he looked lost, but hopefully knowing he'll be in the 1st eleven for the next month will give him the confidence to keep performing. And remember, he was only against Birmingham at the weekend. There are going to be much tougher tests in the upcoming games.

They were not focused and were generally lazy. But Wenger has to take some of the blame for not firing up the players for these so called 'easy' matches. We seen this type of display before. Come on Wenger give these kids a kick up the arse. Also this team showed its immaturity by not knowing when to grab the points, and kill of the game. They were not focused and were generally lazy.

Im a bluenose, and its so obvious Senderos is the problem!!! hes a Titus Bramble, everytime the African nations come knocking, he plays, you stutter! hes slow and judgmental (not in the good, tony adams defensive way!) You need a center back, as well as a striker. We drew because, you couldn't score, and you couldn't defend, senderos was supposed to be marking O'Connor!!!!!!! Mexes and Benzema, get them, win the league. You guys are blind!!!!

I kept a close watch on him throughout the game given his recent form, and I have to say he played really well. He was composed at the back, and the real weakness for me was in the midfield and up front. We need Van Persie back and fit because he is the type of player that can get three points when the rest of the team is not performing well...kind of like Ronaldo for Man U. I cannot count the number of times Ronaldo bailed out Manure to gain some points. If I were a defender in the Premiership I would send a message to that diving POS and put in a nice hard tackle on him at the beginning of a game to make sure he knows what's up.

Senderos played well, I saw him. Criticize him when he is poor (and even then remember he is an Arsenal player who gives 100%, so deserves support), otherwise you weaken your arguments and turn your readers off. crackbrained: insanely irresponsible, absurd: incongruous

We've seen this before e.g. Fulham on the opening day, which won us a penalty to get back into that game. However, in terms of defence, Senderos had a good day overall and made a couple of important tackles when Birmingham broke away late on when we were laying seige to their goal.

Rest assured I aint advocating a change in style.Why change when it has worked for all the games bf the draw.Point is when such teams eg fulham play they are unlikely to allow the gunners acres of space to pass thru endless rounds. Mr AW the name of the game is winning and not playing pretty soccer with intricate circles. Most people can remember Giggs 1999 sf goal But can anyone Henry struck a wonder goal against MU. Which would you prefer?

We could have had Maldini of old and still we would have drawn. A good article untill that note!!!!!! i will have to agree with all the posts, Senderos for me was Arsenal man of the match. 110%, and some crunching tackles.
