Limp display so far, reminds me of Mikel Obi...........all sideways and backward passes with very precious little thrust.

When Arshavin seems to be the only forward-ever thinking player, you have issues. Bring on the plutonian.

The problem is that the midfielders take too many touches. They need to move the baller quicker.

*shrugs.

Who knows, his movement cant be worse but Chamakh holds the ball better I think.

The signs are ominous. An upset is on the cards. Though they have not offered much going forward, I see Leeds scoring from a dead ball situation (corner, free kick or penalty).

Last year, Birminshite did not offer much going foward either, but we know what happened.

What dross this game is...Ramsey continues with underpassing & overruning(can't look off a pigeon to make a pass), Can Chamakh take responsibility as a striker(dude ducks by laying off everything that comes his way)..Arsenal footie without quick passers of the ball is bunkum..

When will AW do the obvious & get some FBs??? we need the insurance..on the left side..Gibbs has had a hernia & groin operation within some 10wks, Santos is out till March, Carl Jenkinson has major muscle group issues...Sagna has to ease his way in...A right FB & left FB will help..i hear Abidal's been considered(no pace but smarts)..we need a right back cover..Cds playing there is big units doing wingback duty(see Thomas Vermaelen calf injury):he's running more than his body's used to!!

Exactly!When you do not force the situation by scoring one or two goals, you always leave youself open to the sucker punch.

True but the pass selection in the final 3rd is poor. These guys are not reading Leeds' defensive movement. They are just passing and dribbling for the sake of it.

Intelligent 1-2 passing will open up Leeds. Right now Arsenal's only hope is a Leeds mistake or set pieces.
