I feel sorry for the chap because he has never had a run of 10 games in central midfield. Like most of our squad he brings something else

spank Manchester United in the Semis and vomit on Barcelona in the final

It was probably the easiest away 3 points that we have picked up for a few seasons. Reading had no ambition and not enough quality to contain an Arsenal team who played the game in 1st gear in the first half and 2nd gear in the second half.

Why did we start the game 4-5-1? That must mean that Arsene doesn't currently trust his other strikers

Wenger: Well, errr, Cesc I do not like these comments coming out of Barcelona about you. What's popping err?

I think we should put out a very creative team and play without the 'handbrake on'

lthough it does beg the question as to why Cesc and Alex were watching Barca when they should have been watching Arsenal instead?!

I know the answer to that one, don't sing any because international football is a load of fishy shit.

What a complete and utter dire match. I cannot remember anything like that for a long time

So there was a lot of speculation swirling around about who would start for The Arse. Wenger made it clear that Almunia would retain his place in goal, and that Song would likely partner Gallas in central defence in the continued absence of Big Phil Senderos and the apparent refusal by Gilberto to play there.
