he has been shit today but that is because he hates the wing and uses all his energy there. He needs to be up front and waiting so that he can make a quick burst.

Yeah possibly agree but he has been really shit this season even when we were ripping teams apart.

But on a positive note he's gotta be better than vela and eddie up front in this formation.

Let him sort out of his head first before we think of putting him up front. Certainly can't see how he used his energy on the flanks or would have helped when, during the disallowed goal, he took several touches before electing to shoot when Cech was stranded

Arshavin's had a shocking period?!... That might explain a few things!

why dont we jest play 4-4-2 now that rvp is out because everytime i have seen eduardo in the 4-3-3 it just hasnt worked. We need to have a formation that accomodates for our players. But we will have to see.

YES YES YES exactly ...

The strikers we have fit can't do the single striker role.

AA has to play up front ... With another supporting

We haven't scored in the 2 league game since RVP got injured .. Doesn't that tell Wenger IT ISN'T WORKING

I would argue that nasri was the only player today that wasnt shit and wenger took him off :shock: Anyway it doesnt detract away from the point that we do not have a big strong player to play the focal position up front right now and playing eduardo/vela/aa23 or whoever is just trying to put square pegs into round holes :roll: :banghead:

we just look so much better with him up front - also at least we are putting less crosses in with such a midget up front.
