What does everyone think of Santos? He has his moments where you get nervous but as a whole I think he has done really well.
I thought he did ok, especially as he still needs to settle. Excluding the goals, Song was my MOTM today
Wenger: "it was a gamble to play [robin van persie]". could he perhaps be carrying a small injury and thats why he didn't start?
Wenger also said that he would need to rest RVP at some time, didn't really expect that today, he might have been carrying a small knock from Weds, but if he was, it didn't show today
Could have been for a number of reasons that we armchair fans can only guess at. I reckon AW knows his enemy well enough to have been convinced that they were going to sit back and not threaten us too much, meaning that if the starting forward didn't do the job he had only to bring RVP on at some stage. As it turns out, AW was 100% correct with his tactics which is why he is a top manager & we are lucky to have him at AFC
Top Performance - And by a gamble to play RVP, I think Wenger meant that he seriously needs some rest. Expect Park to play Bolton.
chelsea down to 9 men. i reckon qpr can win this now. fantastic day for arsenal and, unfortunately, man city.
