New Arsenal signing Samir Nasri who was speaking to French newspaper L’Equipe (seems like rehashed stories again though), has praised the club's style of football
Traore does have a lot of talent but he also has a lot of players infront of him, especially on the flanks. He has arguably a tougher task replacing just the one player infront of him at left back though
Had Coquelin been a few years older then he could have been in with a shout because his performance yesterday showed that he has a lot of ability and bite
I think Arsene giving Denilson, Ramsay, Landsbury and Traore a chance with the first teamers in the first half against Barnet may give a slight indication as to who he sees closer to the first team squad. Mark Randall could have played wide right but Landsbury was the managers choice
But how very dare Hleb who I have lost all my respect for start blabbing his mouth to the Spanish media about how Cesc could follow him to Barca?
He has fantastic technique and looks so graceful in possession of the ball. I know he is only 16 years old but I cannot see anything but the very top for this kid
The season sort of starts today as we play our first friendly of the new season. I am excited and a little disappointed
How is he going to feel coming into training with all the big players back and knowing that nobody has made any real effort to sign him?
I am still a little sad by the departure of Alex Hleb to Barcelona last night. I knew he was going, it was only a matter of time but when it finally happens it is all so final
So it looks very likely that Arsene will sign a player in that position before the window closes. Apparently Bishcoff is an attack minded midfielder and in my eyes Diaby is also an attacking midfielder
