Double checked to make sure, and this season is the first time Walcott has got to double figures in terms of goals in the league, and it's only January. http://soccernet.espn.go.com/player/_/id/67507/theo-walcott?cc=5739
Am i right in saying we've scored more and conceded less than we had at this stage last season, yet are in a worse position?
With some of the beatings we have given some teams, we have probably scored more. Also, our defence was utter **** last season (no fit full back for months), so we have probably also conceded less.
Fifth time we have scored five or more in a league game this season. (Southampton,Spurs , Reading,Newcastle and West Ham)
Still think a real powerhouse in DM should really be a prioity before deadline. At Wanyamas current rate of improvement he could be ideal, Celtic would probably take between 6 - 8 million as it would improve their chances of holding onto Hooper for a little longer. Ramseys too lightweight in that role IMO and theres not much upside in Arteta left either.
Apparently the ball boy at Swansea who Hazard booted in the ribs is one of the Swansea FC directors son's. Hazard is ****ed
Wenger today started with the exact same formation I asked for in the Chelsea game. (except for Koscielny vs. Vermaelen) Like I've said Coquelin isn't better defensively compared to Ramsey, and is worse in just about everything else. Ramsey even fights harder to dispossess opponents, when Coquelin tends to just stroll around sometimes when the opponents get the ball.
Neil lennon has already stated that he is worth 20 million, so you can forget getting him for 6 million im afraid.
