The likes of fabianski, Senderos, merida have enough quality to see off West ham in my opinion. I for one would like to give fabianski a chance to shine he looked very composed against olimpiakos and might get a chance at the No.1 spot. Lets be honest west hams priority is definatly escaping relegation and not the FA cup and also with them having injurys as well i think we have enough quality to see them off.<br /><br />Wengers comments are that he will give a few plays in need of a rest, he will give them a break so i dont think there will be massive changes from the team that beat pompey<br /><br />I personally would like to see the following line up:<br /><br /> Fabianski<br /><br />Sagna TV Senderos Traore<br /><br /> Ramsey Diaby Song<br /><br /> Rosicky Eduardo Vela<br /><br />Come on the Arsenal!!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-731298363130971399.post-32043160246572481332010-01-02T19:48:41.142+00:002010-01-02T19:48:41.142+00:00heya Wrighty.

But I would...Wrighty, you are definitel (w)right!!! But I would like to say a few words to put Wenger's action n and put them in a better perspective.. Look at the players we have now.. The greatest bunch ever..(apart from the invincibles) compare the current striker we are playing in our best team (Arshavin) and the best striker of years gone by (Henry) Henry was a kind of player who was so fit that he could play a match everyother day.. Arshavin, nothing against him he is a wonderful player but he runs for 60 minutes and is wheezing and puffing.. Players from that team were all fit enough to turn up to play every alternate day.. But look at the current squad we have the best squad in the world but most of them are fragile as glass.. Back then Wenger knew if keown or anyone got into a hard tackle the would not be at the recieving end of it.. Right now I don't see any player in the current sqaud with that thought.. I feel wenger feels the same way too.. Probably vermaelean might come close to the players back then an Fabregas has a heart of a lion made from the single largest diamond and would probably get a brace against the MancS with just a single leg.. But I don't see any of the current squad that fit to play everyother day.. Back then wenger who probably was aware of this played our first team all the time and we won but I guess it's not the same now..Rachnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-731298363130971399.post-28377429060510091652010-01-02T18:17:11.870+00:002010-01-02T18:17:11.870+00:00Sometimes its not the strength of the team on the ...Sometimes its not the strength of the team on the pitch, its whats on the bench, and this is where sometimes I think wenger has got it wrong, remember, back in 2001/02 i think, about then, we were playing Gillingham, at Highbury, I think they clawed back to 2-2, and then he brought on Pires and Henry. Thats how to do it. Other times he has gone with a mix of youth and experience but put nothing on the bench. I definitely would rest Arshavin, but have him on the bench. Likewise I would probably rest Diaby, Gallas, Vermaelen, but all on the bench.

Fact.<br /><br />When we won our last 2 FA Cups against Southampton and ManU I can honestly say it meant as much to me as winning the Emirates cup pre-season. It was nice, wanted us to do it, but never thought about it within a week. When we qualified for the Champs Lge a couple of seasons ago when it looked like the Spuds were gonna get it before us it was a thousand times more thrilling/important - as was our rejuvenation last season to snatch it back off Villa.<br /><br />In other words - Fuck the FA Cup, leave those pots to also-rans.

This year wenger has no excuse because the money is there to buy in january and he knows exactly where he needs players, big striker, defensive mid, and a centre half. In terms of the FA cup, wenger should go full pelt for it because not to be negative this arsenal team looks like it would crumble in the league once its on the top and its the one being chased instead of doing the chasing.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-731298363130971399.post-21840001140839446302010-01-02T17:30:58.049+00:002010-01-02T17:30:58.049+00:00Del,
