Not upset. Looked good. Gibbs needs to stay healthy and we need a rb. Players up front are going to need to pick up the slack as the season goes on.

Yea I hear you on that one. The site I write for made a subscription mandatory for me, but I'm glad they did. There are a few things they could do better, and for a subscription based service their user interface should really be improved, but their statistics are pretty much unrivaled as far as I've seen.

He and Cazorla played off each other well, I thought. Whenever they played a little one two, Cattermole always got left behind. Email coming shortly...

I agree cazorla and arteta played well, but poldi seemed to get in the way in the middle at times

Hey Jumbeaux, any chance I can be replaced in the NFL Fantasy League? I'll stay if you can't find a replacement but I just had something come up next Sunday.

Arteta is our best player rt now. Him and cazorla are going to do good things.

Yea now we wait to see who or if we bring in this week. I also think our strikers will come good although Podolski had trouble finding the game today in the 1st half.

Would anyone mind explaining the selling of Song? I can understand selling Van Persie. He has one year left o his contract and came out and said he would not re-sign with Arsenal. Wenger had to get what he could before he left for nothing. Song has two years left, and unless I missed it, hasn't expressed an intent to leave the summer of 2014. I just cant figure it out. Was the offer that great?

Sticking my head in to propose the nickname Santi Claus.

Deliberate.

First off he wanted to leave. Then he has had a bad attitude all preseason and got into a bust up with assistant manager Steve Bould. Word was Arsene had enough of him and saw a good offer and let him go. I believe Song is a bit overrated. Not saying he isn't good but just not quite as good as everyone makes him out to be. Plus he was surplus at his position. A position where we have Diaby, Coquelin, Arteta, Wilshere, and even Ox and Ramsey could fill in. We need a midfielder who is extra defensive. Its the same with strikers. You can't have all 6'+ target men on the squad. You need variety. Same with midfielders.

Looks like Theo Walcott's on his way as well
Don't know how much truth is in it but this beginning to look like a total overhaul of the team. Could be a good thing. I dunno. The thing about Walcott is there haven't been any rumors about what teams are interested. I'm not his biggest fan but I rather keep him than sell him and have to find more replacements. The season is already started and we don't need distractions.
