Arsenal have been given labels from journalists and pundits, many of which seem to be ex Arsenal players. They are churned out over and over again, even if the labels have no truth whatsoever
I find it quite amazing how the Bolton players and manager are all up in arms about a good old honest challenge. Oh the irony or it all is just spectacular. I can remember a Kevin Davies late lunge into Gael Clichy
Arsene has been talking about the role of the midfielder's and that relying for his strikers for goals will be a thing of the past. ok, maybe he didn't quite say that but he has spoken about the importance of his midfield
Even with the squad having to deal with nine injuries, we are still able to put out a very strong side, very close to our strongest eleven
His eye for a pass at his age is truly fantastic and we know about the power hidden away in that left foot of his. Merida has been a player that I have been watching closely for a few years now and I hope he can stay and develop at the best club in world football for developing players
Cesc Fabregas ran the show again and is really showing consistency at the right time. Lets keep him fit for the rest of the season and we will have a great chance to winning the league. Cesc lifts the team and seems to raise other around him
Craig Eastmond was the surprise starter in the center of midfield, I say surprise but with Nasri withdrawing from the squad with a hamstring strain, Wenger's options were very limited. He started his role well, picking out passes
Gael Clichy is fit again and looking good in training so Wenger will make the decision to hold him back a little longer or throw him straight into the thick of the action
So what are we going to do against our bogey side Bolton tomorrow? Arsenal always find it tricky up north against the physical powerful Bolton team, probably cause our boys don't like it up em!
Bendtner is coming back to the first team soon and that will ease the pressure slightly but Bendtner may not be match sharp and fit until sometime next month. I suppose the questions are, can our front men hold the fort until Bendtner is ready
