Conveniently leaving out the most important factor though. In 2007/08 we had Adebayor in the best form of his career, Eduardo really settling into the English game and van Judas and we still had nowhere near enough depth in that area come Feb/March, we currently have Giroud only. We have some great strengths but our rivals have an embarrassment of riches in comparison up top with Aguero/Negredo/Dzeko/Jovetic, Suarez/Sturridge and Rooney/van Judas/Hernandez/Welbeck.brazilianGOONER wrote:i think this squad is much better than 07/08. our creative players then were cesc, rosicky, hleb and diaby. you have to admit cazorla, ozil, rambo, wilshere, rosicky are better choices and better depth, just like per/koscielny is a much improved partnership over gallas/fat touré, and szczesny is far superior to almunia. holding midfielder was flamini covered by an aging gilberto and denilson - now we have arteta and a more mature flamini.Dan_85 wrote: Has Wenger learnt any lessons from 07/08 when we were in almost an identical position? And although they weren't here at that time, have Kroenke & Gazidis?
Anyway, very good win today. Bossed the first half and deservedly led, needed a great save from Szczesny to dig us out in the second but all three of our goals were ruthless and instinctive. Pressure on everyone else now.
