West Ham team: Jaaskelainen, Demel, O'Brien, Reid, Tomkins, Noble, Taylor, Nolan, Collison, Vaz Te, C Cole. Diame only on the bench for West Ham......
I'm hoping for a good game from Ramsey, he's starting to get on my good side, I want to see him do good in this one.
Where's treat when you need him? I'd be interested to see when's the last time you had the front 3 of Giroud, Walcott, and Podolski.
Good to see Podolski back in the team tonight. I'm hoping we come tearing out of the blocks in this game. I think West Ham will try and stop us from playing, so we need to be at it from the 1st minute.
bit annoyed by that midfield if i'm honest. shows that we need too buy a DM. all of those midfield 3 would prefer to play as atttacking midfielder, or maybe ramsey as slightly lower back, but none of them are naturally defensive. they'll swap around a lot for sure, but that might just confuse them as much as the players marking them.
We're in a position where players don't earn their position on merit anymore... it's either due to injuries or reputation... but, nonetheless... COME ON ARSENAL!!!!
good foul by ramsey. getting a strong challenge in early shows the west ham players he's willing to fight for it in the middle of the park alongside wilshere. shame it was a terrible tackle, but still
