Wish we had a better option than Clichy...he seems to never learn from his mistakes.
Gibbs is OK. He gets the job done... I do think he has improved from last season and he does have some nice creativity moving forward as well.
I want Sagna to be 100% healthy so we can actually judge him not for his horrible crosses. I would love him to find his consistancy back...he surely did well in good form.

we have the chance to get Sagna going again by keeping the threat of Eboue taking his place.

Whether he was rested, injured or dropped for the Liverpool match the fact that Eboue put in a great shift will hopefully force him to kick on a bit.

This video shows what he's all about (must watch):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=STtemTw5QqY

- The amount of balls he won in the air was phenomenal and against big center halves as well (Cris and Boumsong)

- Work-rate is brilliant, hassles and harries defenders all the time

- Skill on the ball, awareness and pace are all there to see as well

- Finishing is not great, but could improve

The 2 last videos sums him up very well ..
he's not David Villa, but he's a tough, brave, resilient striker made for the brittish football.

there's many players who could have great futur in big clubs like Gourcuff (Bordeaux), Eden Hazard (Lille) who is only 19 but he's already one of the best players in France, Lloris (Lyon), Gervinho (Lille), and Kevin Gameiro (Lorient).

Who would you most like to see in the red and white of the arsenal?

Out of that lot I'd Lloris...
