If worse comes to worse and we don't sign anyone this has to be our starting 11

Sagna-Koscielny-Vermaelen-Gibbs
Song-Wilshere
Walcott/Arshavin-Rosicky-Gervinho
RvP
That team can contend for 2nd place or even the title if we push it. I still feel we'll finish in the top 4 easier than we did last season. Less pressure for us this year.

The talked about how we had alot of players out tonight hinting he'd be happy with the current squad.
Just typical Wenger talk.

Yeah,I think we need a bit more drive from the midfield to burst into the box perhaps when Wilshere comes back we'll see him bursting forward alot aswell and perhaps Frimpong could develop that way seems a very explosive player at times,I sometimes think we could do with a proper box to box player though when its v.Persie vs 4 defenders the final balls always going to be extremely difficult

Really? You can't really rule out Liverpool though it will be very very close between them and us if we get 2 or 3 injuries we are fucked that's why we need signings it would be very lucky if we get into the top 4 with that squad.

Weren't someone on here taking about him last season and how he wanted him at Arsenal? Maybe Fonseca.
Also:
Wenger was just interviewed post-match by Lille coach Rudi Garcia on Canal . Presenter mentioned Eden Hazard, Wenger smiled... Garcia didnt!

I think Theo would get merked upfront like that personally he needs to be upfront with van Persie.
van Persie - Theo

Re: Official Arsenal FC Thread
It's a worse comes to worse situation, last year the pressure was immense around xmas times all the way throughout till the end of the Barca second leg. This year were not expected to do anything at all. It seems all our bad luck with injuries and suspensions are coming rather early this season as opposed the ending of the season. I reckon our injury problems won't be as severe as last season when it hits the second half of the season here's hoping.NoviNovak wrote:19Jones19v wrote:If worse comes to worse and we don't sign anyone this has to be our starting 11Sz

Liverpool will be our main threat, but we're more than capable of brushing them aside for 4th place.

Re: Official Arsenal FC Thread
I agree. The original post is a knee jerk reaction to a very good performance, but what happens once RVP is injured? Your first 11 are excellent, but it's beyond that where I have a bit of concern for Arsenal.AFC4EVA2012 wrote:Highest I can see us is coming 4th with that team, we need signings an injury and we're *19Jones19v wrote:If worse comes to worse and we don't sign anyone this has to be our starting 11Sz
