    With Arteta and Walcott out and Gervinho and Chamakh in appalling goal scoring form, RVP needs someone to help his tired legs. It's got to be Oxo, not ideal I know to rely on someone so young, but who else is there.
    Rosicky should be capable of chipping in with far more goals than he has done, but, to be honest, despite all the praise that has come his way, for me the season starts in August, not late February.

    i probably agree but only if he plays. My biggest criticism of wenger this year is how much hes under played oxo.

    a non-subtle tactic to give the others matches..... he needs them onside. (and Walcott to re-sign).

    Rosicky can only play well when he's picked!! Once Ramsey was dropped, things picked up.

    I would agree with this.
    Particularly after his performance against Milan, I was expecting him to start games.

    However, Wenger has tended to use him as his 'second choice' offensive substitution after Gervinho.(which means he's usually only getting 10 mins). Would like to have seen him more.

    The issue with using a player of his age though is you will get more inconsistency.

  6. It is interesting that as soon as Ramsey got injured and was out of the team for a while, our form picked up, and now he's back its gone off the rails again.

    In a Kevin Keegan stylie - I'd love it if Ramsey scored the winner against Norwich and helped us secure 3rd

    I don't care who scores the f**king winner - as long as there is one.
