In the first half Aaron Ramsey thought he had more time than he actually had and was dispossessed on a few occasions. It was telling that he improved dramatically when Diaby came on in the second half and allowed Ramsey to play further forward. Although we were not at our best, we still fashioned enough good chances to have won the game. van Persie met a Walcott free kick at the far post but could not steer it in, Koscielny headed onto the crossbar after yet another free kick, this time from Robin van Persie. Cech blocked van

monsieur Wenger never plans for them. There is always an excuse of some sort every season injuries blah blah blah no wonder those comedians at Talksport mock arsenal. Wenger has forgot how to be a winner he thinks he can keep hiding behind these excuses and figures forever every season for over 6 years. I tell you next season will be his last if he tries it again most Arsenal fans are fed up. Its like Arsenal is on replay every season like a Poirot episode in which he never solved the murder, in this case the Professor Wenger still

For Arsenal, we all know that we will have to make do without the services of Mikel Arteta for the rest of the season. With Yossi Benayoun ineligible for this fixture, Arsene's options are fairly limited although we have a double midfield boost with Abou Diaby and Francis Coquelin returning to the squad. Aaron Ramsey is likely to start the game but which position? He has spent most of the season as the furthest forward but Tomas Rosicky seized his chance when Ramsey picked up and

I suspect that the midfield trio will be Alex Song, Aaron Ramsey and Tomas Rosicky. Personally I would switch Rosicky and Ramsey around which almost seems like suicide when you consider Rosicky has probably been our best player over the last month or so but with Arteta missing we need a player who can get our game started from the back, a player who

Another story that is floating around to cause more arm waving man screams is Cesc Fabregas talking about his role at Barcelona compared to Arsenal and that he is more disciplined etc. It is taken out of context just to cause this reaction, my advice to you is to simply ignore it. It doesn't actually matter because he is not registered to the club anymore. You could rightly call me a hypocrite for my continuous digs at Samir Nasri over the season but I think it is obvious that Cesc

The game was pretty much Tomas Rosicky vs Wigan and Rosicky had lost. He was the only player who was making things happen but he couldn't play on his own. He might have had Mikel Arteta to play with but Arteta got badly injured in the first minutes of the game. Gary Neville pointed out that Wigan caught us on the break when Arteta could not walk, Yossi Benayoun was signaling to the bench, assuming that we had maintained possession but instead Sagna's header was cut out by a Wigan player and they swiftly broke on us bypassing

Tomas Rosicky should return to the side tonight after having been fully rested at Wolves in midweek. Gervinho returns to the squad and so could Kieran Gibbs if he comes through late fitness checks. I am interested to know who will get the nod at left back. Gibbs has done very well since his return to the side and Santos is not quite up to speed since his long term

I find it quite bewildering that just two years later so many seem to endlessly criticise him, and some go as far to say as they want him out of the club. No-one is saying that he doesn’t have problems; he has often formed quite a frustrating figure whenever he has been on the pitch. He sometimes lingers on the ball for that one second too long, he doesn’t always make the right choice in the final third and he hasn’t shown exceptional finishing ability. What he does provide however, is an outstanding work-rate. He is never invisible on the pitch; he always does his bit defensively, and is usually always involved some way in our attacks, for good or bad. People may remember
