Arshavin is a luxury player. Which is exactly what we need. A player that can keep loosing the ball, then BAMM he scores or does something special.

Love him!

Also Love Nasri at the moment.

I’m not sure about your ratings. Bendtner’s first 2 were tap ins that Arshavin had accidentally delivered on a plate (for the 1st) then deliberately delivered on a plate (for the 2nd) and the 3rd was a penna that I could score quite frankly. Nasri was unreal, Arshavin is a strange character to watch. When things aren’t going his way instead of trying harder he either kicks the opponents or gets very casual on the ball and gives it away a lot.
I noticed that Campbell has a tendency of getting the ball when we’re under pressure, taking the ball partially upfield and then drawing a foul. Just like Ljungberg when he was past it and on borrowed time at the club. It’s a slightly dishonest tactic but it works. Big Tom was immense as usual and his booking was shocking as the Portugese did worse and got away with it. Brilliant game all in all though, they’re on about Fabregas being 50/50 for the weekend but if there’s any doubt we should rest him or put him on the bench just in case Hull pull a decent performance out of their arse. With the team we played last night Hull should be a walkover. Definately!

Campbell has also been under rated. Why are we fans yet to understand that Campbell and not only vermaeleen are d best thing that happened to our defence this season? Sol has been in no doubt really impressive

Football is all about opinions and I think you got it just about spot on, I might add if Eboue keeps on playing the way he is surely he’s going to give the Boss a real headache because he wont be able to leave him out of the team, also another couple of games and Clichy will be back to his best.

@Xtassy, what is your problem, mate? Are you so in love with ripping into Bendtner that you can’t be happy when the lad scores a hat-trick? Personally, if I’m down on an Arsenal player, I’m happy to be proved wrong. You sound like a Totts supporter.

Arsenal were good last night, but encouragingly I don’t think Arsenal were at their best.

I believe that Arsenal can play even better that that and when you consider they murdered Porto 5-0 then other teams in the Champions League should be worried.

We gave Porto a big advantage in the first leg and we still qualified with ease!

Very pleased and the boys are hitting form at the right time!

vintage arsenal!!! - that’s what made opponents fear us - great attacking & taking the chances that we create. we need to keep this form up in the league. UCL is capable of producing anything - especially in the QF.
NASRI - capable of wearing of taking Zidanes role if he continues learning & producing every game - brilliant 1st touch!!

Diaby and Song worked tirelessly and at 100mph last night, along with the rest of the team. Those two did the hard work in the middle which allowed Rosicky, Nasri, Arshavin, Bendtner to to their stuff.

Awsome night for us!

I think vermaelen deserves a 9 too, he did everything correct today, and blocked every single attempt they had at our goal, one of the best signings ever!!

For me the worst player for us today was song. He was sloppy in his passing and lost the ball far too often after he had won one. Still i think he deserves a 7 so that says alot about how good everyone played today.

I think Campbell deserves a lot of praise on his performance as well. So extremely funny to see every porto player fall to the ground only by touching him,haha.

Now focus 100% on the next game against hull and win it! Save Fabregas for that one as well, so we make sure he is 100% when we meet tottenham and city.
