Eboue and Toure returning to the starting line up, other than that I don’t see Arsene experimenting too much. There will probably be some rotation against Cardiff on Tuesday.
Tonight there are more murmurings that he is flying in for a medical blah blah, whatever Trevor. Just let me know when it is signed or the deal off. As much I would like him at Arsenal, I am getting a little fed up with this now
A bit more attacking aggression and running past players instead of turning them back and forth and not making progress. I am not criticising him, infact he has been one of the shinning lights offensively this season but we know he can do better
It is those situations where you wonder what it would be like if we had the likes of Theo Walcott and Tomas Rosicky in the final third. Players who are more natural at scoring goals
I always think that Emmanuel Adebayor is the player who can score in these types of games. 1 goal in the last 5 games is not the return that he would want at this part of the season but we know he is capable of a good run of goalscoring form
Gael Clichy will return to the starting line up after serving a one match suspension for picking up five yellow cards this season. Gallas could return to the starting line up in place of Toure
Then this morning Sky Sports claim that Arsenal have denied that a deal has been reached with the clubs. So if this is the case then I can only assume that all three parties are wrangling about the £2.5million that Zenit want from Arshavin
My favourite news of the day which made me switch off from a phone conversation that I was having was the return to light training of Czech playmaker Tomas Rosicky
Adebayor had a massive chance to win the game in the 75th minute. Van Persie's cross flicked off the head of a defender and landed at the feet of Adebayor who mis-kicked and the danger was gone
I have the feeling that Van Persie could be rested with Bendtner being brought in to hopefully continue his recent good form off the bench
