Of course, you may not think Arteta does that role well enough, but if you expect him to play a Flamini/Vieira role then you're on a hiding to nothing because it won't happen in million years.
but thats what we need - a true enforcer, a workhorse. bearing in mind how small and lightweight the current midfield is.
Oops, sorry mate - missed the first paragraph of your post
I actually agree a little more than I realised - ignore my posts!
i'm not sure what was better, jacks side flick to Olly or Olly receiving it and putting it back to him so accurately.
am just watching City - they look about the same as us, class in parts but vulnerable and at 2-0 up, let in one let West Ham pressure them then broke away and Villa scored a great goal.
as things stand right now, If we stay injury free i think we can keep pace with City and the Chavs. if.

City and the Chavs have by far the deeper squads quality-wise which you'd expect with all the monopoly money they've spent. However I still think City's team spirit leaves a lot to be desired, I make the chavs favourites but they still look a bit lightweight in places. You never know
Who's their 27? Tettey I think? I love the way he just gives up trying to track the ball half way through and just thinks "what the fuck" before throwing up an arm for offside as a last resort I also like Bassong's head going from side to side lol
went to my first game of the season and couldn't believe I was watching the same team (mostly: one umlaut and a small Frenchman difference ) as last year. Shows what confidence can do. The change in Giroud is amazing.
Was right behind where 3 of the goals went in, including Ramsey's.
Such a happy place to be this afternoon. Long may it last
Going to be amazing for those of you lucky enough to have a ticket for the Dortmund game. Outshout the Germans this time please. They are a bloody noisy lot.
How can a goal reduce me to laughter even after seeing it "live" on a stream and several times since.....my reaction is just to laugh
F*CKKK! I can't even think/react that quick never mind play footie! AND Score!
I've just watched it several times on the trot and have picked a different Norwich defender to keep an eye on each time, with the same result they are all dizzy, spun in different directions not knowing what to do, where the ball is etc.
Some incredible goals today and the atmosphere at the stadium was so positive. Everyone was behind the team even when we weren't playing so well and it was great to see us step it up when we needed to at the end. Can't wait until we play some of the bigger teams over the coming weeks, especially with a few key players to come back
