senderos is not good enough, too inconsistent. in my opinion toure is overrated. makes mistakes and uses his pace to get himself out of trouble. still he is solid enough i guess. gallas is our best centre back but we need a new defender

That's why, when analysing defensive contributions, you can't go soley by the statistics as they will be influenced largely by whom the opponents were. :lol: :wink:
Show me the stats that make Eboue look good.
In our first three defeats of the season, Eboue played no part; that is Sevilla away, Middlesbrough away and Spurs away. He got a red card in Man Utd away FA Cup and we went on to lose. The only full match he played in and we lost was Chelsea away. We also lost against Liverpool away and Man Utd away but he was substituted during both matches.

So statistically, we are much more less likely to lose a game if Eboue has played 90 minutes.

7 defeats for Arsenal - only one where Eboue played full 90 minutes

That means there is a 14% chance of us losing if Eboue is not playing full 90 minutes compared to a mere 2% chance if Eboue is playing full 90 minutes.

This set of statistics prove that Eboue is an immense part of Arsenal

Damn, this is so good, I should send this to Wenger's full-of-shit department :lol:

That only works if we weren't losing when Eboue came off. The 11-14 players involved in a match all take responsibility for the end result as they all had a chance to change it.
