    Very much, for once I think we should slow it down and retain possession.

    Villa just don't have the defenders to shut up shop so this is likely to be a frantic game. Hopefully we outscore them.

    We need a second before 30 minutes

    Great offside trap there. We need more assertive defending like that.

    Villa getting luck on the left. WE need more cover there.

    Very nice save by Shezny. He has been excellent so far.

    The game is far too even for my liking. Villa should really be level.

    There is something to what Toledo Trumton said because Arsenal attackers get no protection from defenders climbing all over them. The opposition are though.

    True, it's like Villa are at our defense straight away.

    How to defend against Arsenal:

    - Put everyone around your own box
    - Have two midfielders hassling in the centre
    - Watch the Arsenal midfielders pass to eachother from one end of the penalty area to the other
    - Patiently wait for somebody to give the ball away
    - Steal the ball and counter-attack

    Lovely pace shown from Jenks. Kept up with Agbon and took the ball.

    every counter attack goes straight wide to the wings , then we either have 2 options.

    a crap cross.

    pass back to the middle and lose it.

    Jesus these commentators trot out every cliche, every time don't they? Just heard about Walcott's deal, Wenger's press conference, RVP leaving and 'money to spend' all in 2 minutes. Boring!

    Everton winning now. They've been impressively consistent this season.

    Great play by Wilshere for going back and taking the ball back.
