    It makse NO sense that we havnt seen Wenger give Podolski a chance down the middle.

    One thing you can say about the German is that his finishing is truely excellent.

    FFS Gerv. <doh> Take him off, throw on Giroud... please... or at least move the Pod to the centre and throw Gnarby on.

    Santos is not a defender. No wonder why they're ripping us down that flank.

    Santos might as well not even be on the pitch for all the good he's done defensively.

    Analysis in short:

    Good: Mertesacker, Arteta, Carzola, Jenkinson.

    Bad: Gerviniho, Vermalaen, Santos.

    Mertesacker, Arteta and Cazorla have been Arsenals best players imo

    I reckon we should take Gerv off, bring on Kos, move Verm to LB, and Santos to the left wing, where he's comfortable.

    One excuse for Santos is that he has got ZERO protection from Podolski. He has left the their RB to run down our right all day. So it's 2 v 1 on that side.

    Take Gervinho off for Koscielny, put Podolski central and move Santos to left wing

    The midfield 3 doesnt work when one of them isnt good enough, our passing hasnt been great since Diaby went off injured against chelsea

    Whats going on with Poldi, he's nomally excellent at providing cover for the LB.

    Compare Ramsey and Podolski. One is actually working hard and therefore it's hardly a coincide that all their attacking play has from their right and our left.

    Kos for Santos now.

    Move Pod to the middle and Gervinho out wide then in 15 mins bring on Gnabry for either Gervinho or Ramsey depending on who looks poorest in those 15 mins.
