This blog is crap! Been playin well for weeks & no comments. all of a sudden after losing 3 consecutive matches cos arteta & gervinho were absent we start seein d comments again! My verdict - Ramsey needs time to be ripe enough (maybe 2 seasons -remember Nasri & CR7?). Gervinho is an excellent player, holds d ball, causes trouble in defence but only problem is finishing. Song is one of the best players in EPL. Do you dudes watch matches at all? Dont u see d quality of Songs assists? Mertesacker - good but not good enuf 4 arsenal. Walcott - needs to be consistent. Santos - brilliant! really a brazillian. I dont think we lack players (afterall what does manure really have in their squad?) its technical ability and discipline of d coach that is lacking

Aaron Ramsey is an excellent player, no way anyone should be making a scapegoat of him. Excellent pass-finder and also finds himself in some great positions inside the 18 yard box. Yes, his finishing could be better, but that will come in time. As has been said here many times, he is being played to death by Wenger, and needs a rest. Similarly, Arteta has been played to death and is injured. Wenger says we have a big enough squad, but once a player is injured, we rely too much on his one replacement, and then we end up seeing below par performances on the pitch.
I personally believe that Ramsey is better used as a Central Midfielder alongside Arteta, with Song as DM.
Who would play as Attacking midfielder you ask? Why not Arshavin, his wing-play isnt great, even when we was playing enthusiastically. Give him a go behind RVP.
Wenger and his method of playing people out of position; due to his success in transforming Henry and Cesc, he feels he can do that with any player,

You so called fan’s make me laugh,alway’s a scapegoat when the chips are down.Now your sick turning on Ramsey a young talent that has come back from a shocking injury and now he’s looking tired we just turn on him???

You want players to come here and they won’t because of all these money bitches that nag more than the wife and just turn on the hate when things don’t go there way.Our support is the worst in the country.

Problem with Ramsey is that he thinks slowly, not very capably technically and often does long runs with the ball instead of making passes.

About Song, I cannot help but he looks like he plays with walkman around his head. His liability about MU second was the most, with Vermaelen, but nobody talks about it.

Problem with Ramsey is that he hasn’t made the same sort of impact as Jack. Sometimes I wonder what his role is. But our squad is so thin we can’t even afford to give him a rest. The balance of the squad is predictable and unbalanced. We have too many similar players that we can’t even change our tactics, and this is a reflection of the managers’ tactical knowledge.

Arsene has very few choices really, tiny squad, yes awful sub, yes some crap players, agree with it all etc etc so yes all stating the obvious BUT the real culprit I’m sad to say is fizman selling out to kroenke who owns a whole load of crap teams in the USA & turning us into the same on HIS WATCH… In his first season, I’m not surprised he is a disaster… He is the OWNER there is NO board… It’s all down to him… I’m staggered at how much is said about arsene & arshavin all fair comments but all small issues about a few games…. when the real problem is totally ignored…. This yank owner is never there unlike me at Swansea & going to the San siro… kroenke is THE PROBLEM he is killing our club, it’s dying slowly in front of our eyes!!
Usmanov however 29% has no seat on the board from kroenke which is a joke is a fan, goes, has a box, wants to pay off our debt, wants to give arsene whatever he wants, wants Dein ….. Wake up!!!

I was attacked by many gooners when I commented on Ramilson few weeks ago, I recalled what happened to me when I said the same thing about Denilson years ago. If anyone still feel that Ramilson is still good enough for us, FARK YOU. For those who feel he is still young and he would develop, FARK YOU. If you don’t agree with me that this idiot is gonna drag us down the table. FARK YOU, FARK YOU BIG TIME!

Aaron Ramsey is still only a back up with potential but been forced to play every week. As for Song you must be joking he’s a lazy un talented liability, his passing is dreadful and against the top sides he hides. He only has 1 good game in 5 he is way behind Parker, Tiote and Barry. Arteta has been ok Benayoun waste of time Gervinho average needs to improve same with Theo. Ox looks great as of course RVP who needs help hopefully Wilshire will bring that creativity. At the back Vermaelen top player but a sick note Koscielny outstanding but Djourou and Mertseker pathetic. Santos looks like improving Gibbs forget him Sagna miss him big time. Keeper great at last. Finally Arshavin Diaby and Squillaci get out. We have declined so much and the board and Wenger are totally to blame. Madrid help yourselves and give us Jose please now that would wake Arsenal up.

What is so depressing is that where we are now is a repatition of the past few seasons….
top of the EPL injury table, & reliant on inexperienced and/or average squad players with Le Boss
failing to take measures to cover this. It’s the same old story…lets wait for the (injury prone) players to come back & stay fit …ie take a gamble. For an intelligent man he’s sure slow to learn.
Tke Gibbs & Sagna for example. Even if they do come back within 10 days we have no cover for them should they get injured within a couple of months. It looks very much like there’s a desperate belief that a returning Jack Wilshere will save the season. I sencerely hope so, but again, the gamble is that he’s going to come back where he left off last season & that h’ll stay injury free.
As for Ramsey, he’s OK, but that’s all. Like Theo, one stand out performance in every 5 games. A good, let alone great player is consistant. I get tired of hearing about how young he is, or that he’s being over played. Lame excuses!!

Did Arshavin and co catch Wenger screwing a monkey in lingerie and have evidence that is the only reason I can see why Wenger still has them at Arsenal co=Diaby Chamakh Djuorou Squillaci Almunia etc players picking up a paycheck for nothing
