What I learned.

1. Kos is better than I expected and looks like he just loves to defend. I still think he's going to make mistakes. But he will have a lot more good days than bad days,

2. Jack Wilshere can only get better!

3. Chamakh needs more time, but he is just what we need. He puts it about, got pace and seems to create a lot of chances for others. Great Wenger signing.

4. Henri & Gibbs need more first team chances. Gibbs most def needs to play.

5. Flappy is a dodgy keeper and needs to be sold along with average Al.

6. We can't go a game without an injury i.e. Gibbs.

Come on you Arsenal! :barscarf:

That was quite amusing!

I thought at one point 'Arry's melted cheese head was going to give birth to a Babybel.

Silly Heebrew knuckle draggers put right in their place!

FUCK OFF YOU SPURS!

Who felt sorry for the Milky Bar Y.id crying his eyes out?

No, not me either!

You need your head tested - Djourou immense? Your fucking joking, right! :banghead: The guy's a walking disaster and no centre-back

He was very good tonight, apart from one mistake or two.

Djourou was not great, looked some way short of proper sharpness after his long term injury.

Even taking into account the injury, the guy has never looked great, even decent, at centre back, on the occasions he has appeared. He doesn't know how to defend.

Still, for some he was immense...so I don't know what that makes Wilshire... :roll: :lol:

he didnt have a great game, but come on, after a result and a performance like tonight lets just stick to the positives?

eboue, gibbs, kos, wilshere, lansbury, nasri, chamakh and even arshavin after being frustrating as hell STILL managed to have a huge impact on the game in the end.

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH WHEN THE SPURRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRS....! HAHAHAHA :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf: :barscarf:

Maybe immense is too much, but I thought he looked very good. Bar one mistake or two.

He also had to cover for Eboue at times who was predictably caught out of position on more than one occasion.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha.

Just nearing home. Wilshere, Gibbs (though quietened by Lennon), Lansbury, Kos, Chamakh and Eboue all great.

Nasri looked tired for most of it but worked hard.

Flappy, Djourou (lacked fitness and sharpness) and Vela less so. Would have liked to seen Chamakh or JET on sooner for Vela. I love Chamakh already.

That place really is a swamp but good atmosphere from us all night.

One thing thats pissing me off - just read Henry Winter's match report and people keep giving bolton all the fucking credit for Jack.
