Players like Arshavin and RVP are on the fringes of being truly world class. Toure is returning to form. Gallas has been better this year. Gibbs and Eboue will keep the full-back slot Tedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11195190597835036529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328101106494598665.post-26922692593517868182009-05-02T09:12:00.000+01:002009-05-02T09:12:00.000+01:00I fail to see how we can challenge for the title w...I fail to see how we can challenge for the title without a defence. This is the worst AFC defence I can remember. But bizarrely our full backs when on form are in the higher echelons of Europe's finest.<br />You can sometimes get away with a leaky defence as long as your midfield is excellent (ours is not) or you score tonees of goals (we don't).<br />Someone in the AFC hirearchy needs to have a Sihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00198639805538341976noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328101106494598665.post-23606970476241784352009-05-01T22:50:00.000+01:002009-05-01T22:50:00.000+01:00Agree on centre backs K, we need more in that depa...Agree on centre backs K, we need more in that department.<br /><br />We also have too many injury prone players, who knows why these players get so many injuries, but we should not sign anymore and gradually offload our injury prone players.<br /><br />It's definitely true that our young players will be a year stronger and wise, however we are still short in certain areas.<br /><br />We need more1979goonerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08783799499006052572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328101106494598665.post-78746371872076986172009-05-01T22:00:00.000+01:002009-05-01T22:00:00.000+01:00he hasn't really built from the 2004 season,he has...he hasn't really built from the 2004 season,he has let world-class players go and to be truthful not filled there shoe's.his change of transfer policy and strict adherence to wage and age barrier have possibly cost us silverware over the last 4 yrs?yes we understand the need for youth to sustain the future of the club you also need experienced players to bring these players along.we have too manyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328101106494598665.post-30158781065435911072009-05-01T21:57:00.000+01:002009-05-01T21:57:00.000+01:00Not sure I agree Lauren would have walked into ano...Not sure I agree Lauren would have walked into another premiership side, but I do agree with the sentiment.<br /><br />Arsene has always struggled tactically, which doesn't matter when your team is full of strong players, but matters a whole lot when you in the process of trying to bring on a bunch of inexperienced youngsters.

I can't wait to see Ces, Arsh and Nasri really gel next season. If Song keeps up his form then the midfield is not looking bad at all. I do think we need to look at the centre backs - Toure is very inconsistent, Gallas is injury K manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13914600260045669589noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328101106494598665.post-77211123869771444002009-05-01T19:48:00.000+01:002009-05-01T19:48:00.000+01:00I agree.

Villa and Everton alone would provide a handful.<br /><br />And at the risk of receiving a, perhaps justifiable flaming, I believe the coaching staff of Villa and Everton would get better performances and results out of the players we have.
