Song's brilliant. Wenger just played him in a role that does'nt really suit him this Season. Last Season with a 433 Song was immense. I actually think he's one of the very best DM in world football - statistically its easy to see we have the best midfield in the league.
Song has got a way to go, but the idea of playing ramsey and wilshere and cesc as a 3 in midfield is suicide. Who is the muscle in that midfield, you really want cesc and ramsey flying into tackles, how long will they last?? The primary job of a DM is to smash the opposition, yes we must work hard and defend as a team, but the DM has a clear role, if Song aint up for it, buy another DM. Also the thought of Djourou starting as first choice scares me, Verm and Samba/Cahill for CL dont mind Kos and maybe Djourou.
I think Djourou is an excellent defender, I know he has been poor in the last few months but when he first started playing this season he was really good. I know Drogba was in reasonably bad form at the time but Djourou remains the only arsenal defender in the last 3 years to come out on top against him.
EPL will watch some of the most scintillating attacking football when this forward quartet (Nasri, Cesc, Gervinho and RVP) combine in attack.
