You're right, you oughta get blasted for this. Pfft!

Let's get something straight, said well back in July Man City would win 17/18 PL title on a canter. Man City this season like Man Utd in 99/00, 00-01, Arsenal in 03-04 the destination of the PL title is fait accompli.

Arsenal have not looked this in sync offensively since Hleb, Cesc, Rosicky, Adebayor and RVP dawned the cannon. Last 6 weeks this has not been the side to side, trying to walk the ball into the net Arsenal, it's quick, fluid, aggressive and opponents are struggling mightily to cope with Arsenal attacking prowess.

As I said in my post Arsenal will have to prove in december if this just a fade or something with legit staying power, something they can carry into coming seasons. Will they evolve into legit perennial contenders i.e Arsenal post 00-99, 00-01 campaigns when they finished 18 and 10 points behind PL champs Man Utd, or will they go they way of 07-08 side who imploded following Eduardo injury and were never legit PL contenders again.

The word is they stopped the transfer in the summer. But Seville are out of the CL now and the rumour is we will be triggering the release clause in his contract.

Other clubs also interested.

Seville are 2nd in their group.

Reports are some teams willing meet release clause of 35 mill and give a N'Zonzi a hefty pay rise. Again my guess this is Moshiri and Everton making a move for N'zonzi.

He's 29 years old. How many players of that age has Arsene bought in the last decade?

It is clear the are developing a new way to compete with petro dollars, as they cannot compete financially.

Recent changes and recruitments in the backroom staff makes manifest of this. For example since Dein left the club, his role as negotiator with the contacts to convince the top players to join has been done with little success by Law, Wenger, Gazidis etc etc. But none of these guys have the know how and skill set of Dein. The has finally addressed this problem with Sahel from Barca.

You are spot on about the tactical changes and how we also have a new style of play. You are right it is beginning to click.

Sorry my bad about Nzonzi. I had him confused with another player.

Everton are trying really hard but if we are truly interested in the player, they will not get him ahead of us.

Wenger has bought older pros of recent. Arteta and Per were not spring chickens. Going forward, we need experienced hardened pros, especially in defensive positions.

Nzonzi has improved immensely since leaving the EPL.

Doing very well in the youth team and training with senior players regularly before his unfortunate injury.

If was fit, he would have been playing regular Europa league football.

I have always liked Kondogbia from his youth days, but he messed himself up when he went to Inter. He really wasted himself there.

He is playing well again but we are also seeing the money grabbing ways that saw him go to Inter resurfacing. His brother, who is now his new Agent, has been busy hawking him to EPL clubs and he has only just started playing for Valencia.

He will mess up again.

Go well? I guess I must've been hiding since 2004 then.

You think I care to "gloat" about this loss? Dude I'm all about EPL titles not just beating United (though it's a nice bonus to spank them); but in case you don't know someone else has run away with the league...regardless of the result of this match.

Mschew!

Arteta is a good one. He was also 29 I believe. Per was 26 or so. Prime age.

I don't know that it's so much an improvement with Nzonzi. I think it's more a factor of him being where he can express himself. That Blackburn team had some 'under the radar' ball players.
