Would anyone notice that Nasri started playing the Denilson box to box role when Walcott came in? And he really did well tracking back superbly and also being the fulcrum of attack. Well, in the nearest future thatz where he'll be playing for L'arse. Wenger granted an interview last week extolling Nasri's virtue and why he could flourish in that role. Wenger is bent on really exploring the 4-2-3-1 formation to accommodate Arshavin and Nasri but pray, what happens to RVP? This really calls to question if Wenger knows his best 11. Our man seems to be really carried away by one off performances. Arsenal played Roma off the park at the Emirates with 4-5-1 with RVP as the arrow head. Now Wenger thought that was the Amen of all formation and went to Roma with same. Surfice to say it imploded spectacularly as Van persie was clearly nullified by a Roma that has been given a working script by wenger. Should there not be a variation in home and away formation one wonders. Fast forward to the Man-city game with Fab back on the keel and to accommodate him Prof goes for 4-2-3-1 with Fab playing off Adebayor and Denilson+Song anchoring. It was goodish on the day and pronto Wenger unveiled same in Villareal. The story of the first half need not be repeated. Now, Fab is being held up as an attacking midfielder in the mode of Gerrard or even Dennis Bergkamp instead of the central midfield position that he has done so very well in. Against Liverpool yesterday, he played behind bendtner while a more skilfull and mobile Arshavin was shunted to the left. Does Wenger know his best role? And why play Fab there when Arshavin has spent almost all his life and excelled in the role? Does he even know arshavin's best role? Is playing Fab upfront not removing him from a midfield where we are disadvantaged to a forward line where there is a glut of talents, what purpose will this sreve? With this latest soon- to-be- implemented-experiment with Nasri, one is constrained to say that this Gunners team and it's formation is being picked on Wenger's flimsy whim and not a deep conviction of it's workability. No?

Well, well. I join y'all in saying, thank you Wenger! Arshavin just scored in a cup final. I weep!!!

How this oblong-headed spy from Manure ever played for France is a wonder! Come on Djorou, glory beckons.

Arsenal will lose. This's a picnic game we should try our academy players in while resting our armoury. No big deal

Lets just assume this's a windup otherwise some people are bent on cracking me up. Arsenal play containment footy against a plodding chelsea with a third string defence? L'arse's game, if y'all do not know is based on attack. Now some people would want that to change against a Chelsea team that have conceeded seven goals in two matches and with the kind of leaky defence arsenal had?! Even with a full strength backline, Arsenal seldom play containment. With due respect, all these allusion to Essien and whatever their formation is just tosh, pure bunkum. Arsenal lost because the team was imbalanced and disfunctional simple. Now we have a problem in defence and a coach of wenger's standing goes and plays a short and fragile Denilson as anchor. Do we count the number
Of times he lost the ball in threatening positions on saturday? That we didn't conceed directly from such does'nt vitiate itz distabilising effect. Last season, Arsenal's forwrd play was based on the creativity offered by Hleb, Rosicky and fabrigas; creative skillful players. Now how many did they have yesterday? No Arshavin, no Nasri, how would they create? It beggers belief that some people will absolve Wenger for dropping arguably his best player in arguably his biggest game of the season yet. What is wrong in playing Arshavin behind Ade when everybody knows Terry is one paced and at sea with skillful players? Then protecting Gibbs by playing RVP on the left, or whoever is defensively better.
Like I said, I think it's just a wind up otherwise some people are massively blinkered

@^. I didn't see your description of your beloved Chavki from you. Benitez is fool, Fergie is a tosser. What happens to that joke of a club that changes coaches like diapers? You should describe them too abi?. Not forgetting their Russian despot!!

Chavski the PRIDE of London? Don't crack me up. You guys are being set up for a gargantuan fall. Smart teams are throwing the cup and you guy's are posturing. Well expend your energy for nawt. We have bigger fish to fry!

Whopee! United has won three trophies?! Well I'm sorry. Never knew mickey mouse trophies won against opponents from the pits of Latin America count. Now i know you guys counted the TEA CUP that is the Carling cup. Did you count the SAUCER too?! Quint* my tiny foot!!!

I think I'll put money down for Chelsea against Everton. If they win, lolly for my pocket. If they don't, peace for my soul. Now thatz what they call a win-win situation

Can this man just go and hide somewhere! Please, Mr Wenger, rest your mouth and don't get your fans walking up the wall. I beg you just shut up. Don't remind me my day will be hell at work tomorrow, no thanks to you!

Good for you. I feel worse knowing this's our cup we just threw. Never felt worse!1

It's a shame that Wenger has shamefuly bottled up in an F.A cup that has always had Everton on the card as finalists since sir red nose started to feel the fire from the scousers. Everybody knew that Fergie will throw the cup, understandably. Now what reason does this arrogant git that I can't readily describe without getting insultive have for throwing the game for Arsenal? He went and weakened an already depleted team. Was he reserving players for liverpool? Then why didn't he change early enough knowing that Aston Villa drew and that playing for penalty against Chavski is calamitous given that his backline is an accident waiting to happen. What was a cup tied Arshavin doing on the bench and why play Denilson against a physical Chelscum midfield?
Listening to Wenger makes me want to puke. These players give their all but Wenger continually undermine them because of his arrogance and unbridled desire to conquer Europe. To lose against an embarrassingly beatable Chelski is gut wrenching. We want a cup of any hue to launch this team but it seems Wenger is a begger with a choice. As sad as it sounds, I pray he fails in Europe to assuage that little boy that was weeping in Wembley yesterday.

Quint*what? Jokers!!

What's the wankfest here for? Abeg make una find corner! CHELSKUM!!!

No arshavin. No song. First blood part one!

I've gotten into trouble over trifles in my phone before. Right now, my phone is a big no-go area. I wont bother with her's anyway

All these people wey dey shout for picture, where una own dey. Too much posturing!

Red nose is going to play Everton with this residue. What happened to the quintuple?

My team+ formation. 4-4-1-1

Fabianski

Ebue Toure Sylvestre Gibbs

Walcott Song Fabrigas Persie

Arshavin

Adebayor

Strength and determination? This's football m8. Not rugby!!

Sir whiskey nose is getting afflicted with alarming senilic dementia! Wetin concern am with Alladice? This sudden love-in don too much. Abi they don dey kpaki?

Chavski beat Barca?, In your bed!, in your big fu.ckn dream!!. Which left back will be on Messi? And I'm sure that pubeface, Terry along with the increasingly ponderous Carvalho will be in central defense. You should rather be playing to minimise the debacle!.

Chelskum will line up Carvalho and that cunt, Terry in central defence. I smile at what a little bit of speed could do to that one paced bile-conductor. Hope prof plays Arshavin behind Adebayor while RVP goes to the left. He can help Gibbs now that Sagna is unavailable because Arshavin on the wing is a defensive liability. Terry will lose the game for Chelski today!

Itz scarily worrisome what L'arse can do with their back against the wall. With this spate of injuries, they'll just PISS in Chavski's noodles.

Squirmish Chelskum peeps getting bothered by their blood pressure. Not to worry, we'll go easy on you people. 3-0 ok for y'all?

You do special push ups to strenghten your fingers. You WILL need them

Gibbs has hurt his tiny groin

Arsenal, as a NOUN could be singular or plural depending on the users nuance. But the modifier MUST be consistent. No?

A part of l'arse makeskift back four has fallen off. Kieron Gibbs a doubt with a sore groin. Sagna still decked by a viral infection

The script's already been written. Let's gather the actors and play. Tunk tunk, the GUN blazes!!
