I reckon we should leave our squad over there and bring back this greentown team
Save a fuckin fortune in wages and I on the link i am watching it sounds like one of them is called ***** sun, be brilliant to hear the crowd shouting "come on, ***** sun!!!!!", personally I never need the encouragement
So far this game tells us nothing we didn't already know. Traore wont be good enough to replace Clichy at LB, Squillaci is shit, we still need a dominating experienced keeper, the midfield needs a bit more steel added and Rosicky is unfortunately past it.
It's frustrating to see that, when a team puts 10 men behind the ball, we still haven't got a clue how to break them down once our one-twos outside the area don't work.

I really wish Wenger would use these matches to try something new. And by 'something new' I don't mean playing Vela at centre forward, or playing Rosicky in central midfield - I mean like a different formation. The way Greentown are set up, it's actually decent preparation for the majority of teams we're going to be up against this season. But, we're sticking to the same old tactics and it's not working. It seems as though, offensively and defensively, nothing has been learned since last season.
