I'm glad I'm not the only one having issues with the passing. I'm getting used to it, but there's been plenty times I've given the ball away when I was trying to pass to a guy somewhere else.

I find holding the stick a bit longer helps immensely.

Kosc & Cesc are out. Djourou & Diaby are starting.

6'8" Nicolas Zigic makes me nervous. Go back to Valencia!

**** all

Neat pass from Wilshere on that Chamakh goal, a nice finish from his as well. Jacky ruined the day by being sent off, hes on a 3 match ban now, wtf man. Fun game to watch nonetheless, I dont recall Birmingham touching the ball for more than 30 seconds at a time in the second half, I guess Rosicky gets the start next week unless Fab stops being a ninny and gets on the pitch.

Rosicky looks great.

Hleb looked so short on fitness in the 2nd half, it was saddening to see. Poor Jacky got himself sent off, but I think he'll learn from it. That was a very, very bad challenge. But he played BRILLIANTLY all day up to that point. Pinpoint passing, beautiful 1-2 that should've opened the scoring with Chamakh.

Can someone explain to me why Squillaci is the captain? I'd rather Nasri take the armband.

Now then...Song is our only holding midfielder, 4-1-3-2 formation, anybody?

Squillaci is senior in age to everyone else I suppose, Wenger also likes the Captain to shout commands from the back, so its natural he'd pick him. But as far as team seniority is concerned, I agree, Nazzy would be great.

I really would like Song to stay put, he likes to go forward too much, and while he can look brilliant at times, he dispossesses the ball entirely too much leading to counter attacks. I've never been a fan of a lone striker, so that formation would be nice to test just to see how we run it.

Mario Gomez nets 3...is he back? I sure hope so!

cow · 10-16-2010, 10:31 PM

Was he ever there?

10-16-2010, 10:33 PM

At Bayern no. Stuttgart? Yes!

10-16-2010, 10:34 PM

2nd goal was the Super Mario we know and love!

Red370 · 10-16-2010, 10:58 PM

maybe he'll show up for Germany one day like that.

10-16-2010, 10:59 PM

lmao right! Germany has a pretty well balanced attack as it is with tons of depth but it couldnt hurt!

10-16-2010, 11:01 PM

Arsenal won today from what I saw. What was the outcome again and against who?
