Great news that Abou Diaby has signed a new deal that keeps him at Arsenal until 2012. I feel sorry for him in some ways, it is clear that attacking/creative central midfield
We have played 39 games this season (league, all cups, and in Europe) and we've lost 3 games (Middlesbrough, Seville, and the scum) but I fink it would have been a lot more if it wasn’t for the players I'm going to talk about.
Matthieu Flamini was head and shoulders the best player on the pitch against Newcastle, he was the holding player, the driving force, the creative influence and a goalscoring threat.
The side will be strengthened by Sagna, Hleb and Eduardo starting, and Almunia will be back in goal
Things seem to look a tad brighter on the injury front in our squad. Kolo Toure does not have a tear to his groin which means his injury is not very serious
Apparently we have just had a bid accepted for Jonathan Woodgate. Wow, that is a little confusing
Adebayor and Eduardo were the main differences in the second half and we ended up comfortable winners
He flicked it onto Eduardo on the penalty spot but just as he was about to pull the trigger
3 - 0 against a very good team + a lot of chances that made me laugh a lot. But todays match against Newcastle game me the same feeling as watching the highlights of Arsenal's game versus Slavia Prague.
Transfer rumours flying around again. Yoann Gouffran is supposed to be close to signing a pre contract with us, which could see him arrive in the summer.
