He just slows the pace of our play down so much and its been highlighted since the emergence of Wilshere. Whereas Jack keeps the ball moving with precision Diaby just dawdles around trying to do stupid tricks & turns and it prevents any type of quick counter-attacking play.

Put it this way, if Diaby was still first choice we would never have scored that second goal against barca.
Totally different type of player to Wilshere, but I take your point, he can certainly come across as fairly ponderous- I just think he's been very effective in this one thus far. To me it looks like the Orient were hoping to dominate physically and he's pretty much put a stop to that

Wilshere is different class like, quality player

If anything, I hope we win this 6 or 7-0. Will give these reserve strikers a bit of confidence(which bendty don't need) which we'll need for the rest of the season. Chammy better get a hatrick. :barscarf:

Bendtner is 10x better playing on the left than the right, because of his ability to cut in which he has shown a this season, Ipswich, Newcastle?, Man City now Orient tonight. So why do we repeatedly play him on the right where he is ineffective? :banghead:

Yeah hopefully a few goals will get the flowing for them. As much as we moan about him, i thinkw e all hope Bendtner actually becomes the player he thinks he is

I swear Bendtner could score 30 goals in a season and some here would still think he's utter shite.

always thought the same, i remember the goal he scored in the 6-2 win against Blackburn last season, cut in front left, great strike in off the post...

Bendtner ---- RVP ----- Walcott

could be quite dangerous (when all fit obviously)

If Bendtner ever scores 30 goals in a season I'll let Elton John bum me around the four corners of the Grove.
