The new Cesc should partner him in the middle with the old new Cesc playing on the left which isn't really his position but that basically means he is not thought of as highly as the current central players
I am beginning to wonder if 4-5-1 is the way forward with this side. We have scored 7 goals in two matches with that formation, playing fantastic attacking football on both occasions
That is why dismissing players such as Denilson, Bendtner, Song etc. They are all on an uphill progression curve
A fifteen-pass move ended with Fabregas finding Nasri in space on the edge of the box. Unlike his predecessor Alex Hleb, Super Sam had no qualms in hitting the ball first time as he arrowed an unstoppable shot into the top corner
Theo Walcott needs to be available for the team as we were severely suffering from outlets against Fenerbache in midweek. And he is the one player who wants to go beyond the ball and not be drawn moving towards the ball
I don't think it is the points difference that is the problem because that can be turned around pretty easily over the course of a long season, it is the fact that we have played against pretty average or poor teams overall and have lost 3 games
Denilson had a pretty descent game. He won some tackles and his distribution was good but his positioning was really poor. He was nowhere to be seen when huddlestone,modric and jenas attempted those long range shots
Arsenal had a massive 87% possession of the ball after the first 5 minutes, quite amazing I thought to myself, I then started dreaming about keeping that up for 90 minutes, that would be fun
I expect our customary square pegger to be Denilson on the right to add some bite to the midfield and Cesc partnering Song once again in the center
Delap's throw arrowed towards Toure with Fuller lurking behind him, Fuller and Toure had been tussling for the ball, Toure jumped to head the ball, he missed his header but Ricardo Fuller managed to get a touch on it
