Your Vision – How good are we at the moment?
But even more importantly I noticed...how better we are currently than that team we fielded that night! We'd no Gallas, Vermalen, Clichy, Arshavin, Rosicky & Eduardo. We're also down on that "player whom we do not speak of" who wore 25 on the night
Nine goals for Cesc Fabregas and now top scorer in all competitions for Arsenal, when you add the highest number of assists in the team this season you are talking about a truly world class player
Love him or hate him, you cannot argue with the amount of times he has won the ball this season, either in the air or on the deck. Diaby gives us something from the center of midfield that we cannot get from any other single player in our squad
Arsenal are simply better than the floundering Dutch champions. They were at their attacking best last night, Diaby impressing in midfield, Arshavin setting up three
A few seconds later William Gallas powered forward to join the attack, exchanging passes with Arshavin and finding Cesc in the left of the penalty box, Cesc shifted the ball past the defender and scuffed a right footed shot low towards the near post
Tomas Rosicky, Samir Nasri and Eduardo Da Silva should all be fit, fresh and hungry for games and could all be in contention for a starting place in the side. Although it is likely that Tomas Rosicky will be starting from the bench as Arsene mentioned in his press conference
