Of Arsenal Review II

Things do appear better when the team wins, a 2-0 victory over Reading away from home.. this was kind of expected and it feels good to see the gunners deliver after a week of disappointment on 2 fronts.

Old man Graham advise for Wenger is to spend big money on 4 ready-made player. Sure, i'll love to see 4 of them coming in for crazy money:
1. Good Center Defender
2. Strong Right Winger
3. Strong Left Winger
4. Killer Striker

Bringing in any of the big names will be a blow to the talents that are brewing on the fringes of the first team and reserves..
1. Good Center Defender-Harvard Nordtveit, Vincent Van De Berg
2. Strong Right Winger
3. Strong Left Winger
Kieran Gibbs, Nacer Barazite Fran Merida
4. Killer Striker
Carlos Vela, Gilles Sunu


Players in the academy that are waiting to fill the gaps are aplenty.. so the ONE experienced player that i feel Wenger will get is a good Center Defender. 2nd priority is an old fashion winger that tears defence apart and whipped great crosses in

Could Walcott develop into that 2nd priority so that resources can be used to find that one good DC? I sure hope so.



WTB: Center Defender: Not prone to injuries, emotional outburst, good in the air, quick on the feet, good reading of the game, handles pressure and big matches well.

If you play FM, its at least at 18 for all the defenders statistics


Meanwhile,
Fabregas has repeated his desire to play at Arsenal.
Gilberto says he loves the club and wants to stay and fight for his place
Flamini has some 14days to decide if he wants to sign a new contract or find a new employer

I'll only comment on Flamini, he's good, but players who leave the Arsenal way of football don't always turn out better at other teams. (Think Henry, Overmars) So watch this space for updates.




Till Review III then... Nights.. ehm.. Morning
