Sandro and Adebayor are quality. Both would walk into our team.

Sandro, a squad player at Spurs, would walk into the Arsenal starting 11. Pisses all over Song.

Adebayor would walk into the Arsenal team, pisses all over Chamakh (assuming 4-4-2 formation)

Palacios would also walk into the Arsenal team as, again, he is defensively better than Song.

Aaron Lennon is clearly better than Theo Walcott and would walk into the Arsenal team.

Assou Ekoto is rubbish, but he i clearly a better defender with Gibbs, better injury record and actually understands the position of left back. Gibbs is a left winger stuck in defence.

Gallas v Vermaelen is a dead heat. Gallas is proven in the league, whereas Verm isn't but Verm has age and potential on his side.

Dawson v Koscielny isn't even close. Dawson any day of the week over the Ligue 2 specialist who doesn't know that you can't make rash tackles from behind in the box!

FFS, even reserves like Sebastian Bassong urinate all over Shitachi and Djourou!!!

And IF Lassana Diarra does sign for them....

Of course: Sagna, RVP, Wilshere, Scezny and possibly Verm would all walk into their team.

What is sad however, is that about 4 years ago I'd have laughed in your face if you could name more than 2 Spud players who could get a spot on our subs bench.

Now, their SQUAD is clearly stronger than ours here and now.

That is an absolute fucking DISGRACE.

Hate to say it but they've definately caught us up. I mean, we go into games against them now not expecting to win but hoping.

Last night it was "only" Hearts but they were away and without there supposed playmaker Modric.
Watching Redknapps interview last night, if he can add to his squad which he is hoping to do then who knows.
Watching that interview he was up front and told it how it is...................Shame our manager can't take some lessons instead of talking shit.

i guess its all about modric, if he stays you could argue overall their squad is slightly stronger as a squad but our best eleven may be slightly better.

the main is difference is that i think sp#rs gett 100% out of most of their players and i still see a lot of our players just going through the motions.

I strongly disagree with that. If there's one thing we do it is getting the best out of avarage players. If Song, Koschielny, Diaby, Chamack, Djouro, and I could go on with about 10 names more, weren't at Arsenal they probably wouldn't even be Premier League players. Yet we still end up qualifing for the CL every year.

Disagree mate:

Denilson (looked a decent talent when he fist signed but just strolls round the pitch now)..........???

Song does not bust his bollocks every game no way, some games he hardly breaks into a sweat

JET - great talent but by all accounts his attitude stank

Rosicky - good player but looks disinterested.

Chamak - did you watch him tuesday?

diaby is one of the laziest players i've seen, great if he trys but he never does.

imo - if our manager/captain could have got 100% out of our players for the latter half of last season we would have won the CC and probably the league.

Fair point and with Tony Adams as their captain these players attitude would be better, but I still doubt they would be anywhere near a CL club without Arsenal and Wenger.

They have more players but they are no better. Sandro has a few good games and he's the new Roy Keane? Fuck off. Lennon? pshh. Palacios? So Good Redknapp wants him gone.

Come on, things aren't that bloody bad.
