"we want Eboue back" banner in the arsenal end
I'd love to see the email from arsenal if it was mooted that it was going to make an appearance at a home game: "dear supporter, we fully support wengers decision to fuck eboue off and therefore can not allow the banner into the emirates. Just like eboue, we hope never to see it again"
That's what Theo should do more of, just kick it past him and run. By the time the defender has turned around he's already got the momentum and is past him.
Theo has bags of pace but his football IQ (aka decision making) borders on dreadful. First time cross after he skinned a defender and had acres of room, into a box with one non-header-specialized striker and two defenders?
Ridiculous.
And now Jenks looks hurt. Oh goodie, will be it be Koscielny or Djourou at sideback? Seriously, fuck.

Problem is mate, after that, he needs the basic football brain to do something decent with the ball like e.g. cross it in, make a simple short pass etc. Nope, still can't!
God, we really are a very very average side. There is no spark whatsoever, Arteta just doesn't seem to want to know, there's no drive from him, he doesn't even appear to want the ball! We've got very sloppy players in Song and Santos who are a constant danger in giving the ball away. Marseille really don't look up to much at all.
