The mind boggles!! Bring him on in games where we are comfortable against the likes of Burnley and QPR ..... not that we have any comfortable games these days but you know what I mean. Starting him against Bayern and Dortmund is not the way to make him better. He needs to be eased into it not thrown into games when the pressure is on.

Welbeck has a very slight hamstring issue doesn't he?

Sango is just a sh*t footballer, not his fault Arsenal signed him.

Was gonna say that earlier, be like Welbeck look good in one match. :pac:

Bob.Carcass wrote: »

Daily mail, hopefully true. Although if it is it looks like Welbz and Theo could be out too??

That would leave Wenger lining up something like this:

---

Martinez

---

---

Chambers--Mertesacker--Monreal--Gibbs

---

---

Arteta

---

Ramsey

---

---

---

Cazorla

---

---

Ox

---

Sanogo

Very tired Sanchez


Not good

Proud of this

I'll pay you the odds on that if he scores man.

Not so proud of this one

He scores and butchers a chance. That's the sanogo we know.

Best player we have had since Henry, what a talent!

Soups123

We are 2-0 up, please god just be sensible now and take it we don't need to load attack or close it down high up the pitch

Gringo180

He's got a lot of stick the past few weeks but I have been pretty impressed with Monreal lately myself, hes not afraid to get stuck in, I actually think he has looked more of a centre back than Mertesacker this season.

Alfred Borden

Arteta's usual injury lately. Its a shame, we look so much better with him. Watch the headless chicken Flamini get made a show off!lol

Not happy until we get 3.

Wait no, Anderlecht.

4.

Wait no, Newcastle.

5 it is :pac:

Very similar the way he bent it around the keeper, Henry loved that sort of finish.

Would like to see Campbell get a run out here in the last 15.

For me he has been better than Mert for a few weeks now

It's been done by one of the top S&C coaches in the world

It's def been done right

Alfred Borden

Have to say im very impressed with the GK. had very little to do but when he has he has been brilliant. Not looking to be constantly involved in the game as well as decent distribution.

He committed himself twice to balls across the face of the goal and missed, that would be my only worry.

That's mainly because they've been found out.

They may have to alter their play style just a little, as the German teams have started to figure out their style of play. Just sit back and force them to pass in front of you and they will crumble.

Most of the teams in the CL don't have teams in their own division that play similar football to BVB. Because of that they struggle.

Like i said above BVB have been figured out.
Anytime BVB got the ball in our half we dropped everyone back and forced them into a passing game which as we saw today they're awful at. We didn't play a high line for them to run into and because of that the like of Aubameyang became useless.

Its a nice change to see Wenger actually changing the defensive system to focus on a oppositions weakness.
Hopefully we move on from this win.

Best defender - Gibbs
Best midfielder - Arteta
Best attacker - Ox

Very good performance and Sanchez goal was a cracker. The positive from it that it should give a bit of confidence into the players into the next couple of fixtures. Still nothing to be carried away about but the injury situation is getting worrying.

emmetlego

He's very young, but seems to have all the tools.

As for the performance, I was expecting it, and they showed much more discipline tactically. Thanks be to God!!!

Mert and Monreal never looked troubled, our 2 FBs were solid, but contributed to attack nicely. Ramsey is really struggling to find 2013 form, but his overall display was good, Arteta I personally thought was class, but was that a hammer injury or his hip?? Anyway, Ox looks improved, and Santi was decent also.

Well done to the betting syndicate here on YaYa's glory, delighted for ye all, he was good, even leaving the goal aside…

But what can you say about Alexis… A hero already!!! The best since Henry, but the potential to be as good, or dare I say it… Even better!

Got to agree with this here. Credit where its due, Wenger lined the team out to counteract the opposition and did it very well. Spot on with his tactics tonight. Would love to see some consistency out of him though.

Looper007

On the injury front when is Ozil and Walcott expected back?

Pierce_1991

More mature performance tonight, hopefully we can see more of that in future. What the hell is with all the injuries though!

He is pure class, you will agree, longevity of this form, and he wont be too far away!
