Why isn't Arsene playing Fabianski more during the pre-season? I mean we already know what Lehman brings to the table.

You got to give it up for RVP... That is as good as it gets.. the close control cutting was just too sick.. That kid will have a huge say in arsenal's season....

But Inter Mumu sef... That their LB and every guy on that left position must be really useless... Arsenal has been raping that end all game long with sagna and eboue making outside runs...

What makes Arsenal deadly is their overlapping full backs.. Those guys stretch the oppostion and creates space in the middle....

We need to sort out the left side of attack, we relied too much on the right today. Gibbs looks like the another Midfield star in the making.

A lot of positives this weekend be it Hleb as AMC, RVP, Eboue, Sagna, Clichy, Gallas, Gibbs, etc As always great football but still have the same concerns i.e defending of crosses and ability to finish the plethora of opportunities we create.

Hopefully when Ade, Theo, Thomas, Dudu and Gilberto return we will improve in both areas. That being said I still believe we are in need of a striker and a LW as only good can come from adding extra depth and quality to an immensely talented yet thin squad.

Which Gibbs una watch

Almost nothing came off the right side, dude couldn't beat his defender to sace his life, his technique is so mechanical it looks American. The whole lef side sucked. Hoyte's left leg is dead to football, so obviously n so so cutbacks to the right. But yet una tok say he is a baller in the making.

Gibbs was not playing as an out and out LW today he was cutting inside much of the match to open up space for RVP, Hleb, Cesc etc. Football is nut just about fancy moves but linking up well with the attack, tracking back and creating space which Gibbs did quite well in his first ever apperance with the first team.

With a RB at LB and a kid in Gibbs on the left Inter only managed 3 shots on goal.

But then, considering how they've continued to fail to make the CL, beating Orlando Pirates in a friendly is about as good as it gets for them in achieving something "outside (coming 5th in)" England.

Na lie! Why do U all like to make up stuff as u go along

Yes, I know he is young and just got hiis debut. Yes, I know he didn't stink up the joint, but he was nothing special. And he did play as the Leftsided midfielder. There is no such thing as an "out and out LW" stop creating superlative to help differentiate. He was to the Left what Eboue was to the Right. I saw a lot from Eboue (especially all the stuff U claimed about Gibbs, creating space on the flank for Sagna by cutting inside, linking up with the attack (numerous 1-2 with RVP, tracking back to defend e.t.c.)

While Cribb tried as a youngin, I see nothing that suggests a future anything. MLS material if U ask me

P.S: no one said footbal was all about fancy moves, so stop putting words onto my fingers. He did not link up well with the rest of the team (as obvious from the non existent # of chances that came off the right flank.)

Double P.S: Inter having 3 chances was a testament to their uselesness and not nccesarily to the strenght of Arsenal's left side. Lest we forget the where the Suazo goal originated from

This is Spastic, usual pointless discusion, first he is talking about an U18 player who just came from the Wimbledon Academy, and also he is talking about Justin Hoyte who is playing out of position, why do you do this.
