Alex Song bossed the early exchanges of the game, he looked head and shoulders above every player on the pitch. His ability to hold off the opposition and find his team mates in little gaps is exceptional
Emmanuel Eboue has a case to start the game at right back as we are at home but with the defence in shambolic form as a unit I do not imagine Wenger resting one of our better defenders for a more offensive choice. Theo Walcott is likely to start ahead of him
Questions will be raised as to why three of our central midfielders were in forward positions at the same time. Why didn't one player take it upon themselves to drop back into a safe position behind Lampard and Malouda.
We could easily go the rest of the season unbeaten, no trouble. Despite what the pessimists might be saying, I can't see us losing at home to Liverpool on Wednesday and after that the hardest it gets is Tottenham away and Man City at home, both in April
Wenger has kept his cards close to his chest but I can only imagine that Diaby will be in the squad, the real question is if he is sharp enough to be thrown into the deep end. We already have players feeling their way to match fitness so Wenger will have to decide
That's the spirit son! You know a good thing when you see it, at least he has intelligence. I won't go overboard until a deal is done but it does seem quite likely, Arsene has publicly said on more than one occasion
Denilson to many is not a crunching tackler, he is not a dribbling central flair player. He isn't the new Mathieu Flamini so he is questioned, probably by the pundits as much as the fans. His form of recent weeks hasn't helped
Losing the big games to our nearest rivals hasn't been pleasant, the chance to gloat to any Manc or Chav friends has been delayed once again but luckily for us we do have 34 other fixtures during the course of a league season
Nicklas Bendtner is happy to have come through his injury nightmare after spending much of the season out with a groin problem. It is great to have him back in the first team squad, hopefully he can make an impact from now until the end of the season
Arsene wanted a striker and had his targets, he wanted certain players who he thought would fit into his system and unfortunately he wasn't able to bring those players in
