  The double pivot of Ramsey and Arteta has been superb. We probably need a replacement for Arteta soon, and it's a real blessing that he's been fit as often as he has. I shudder to think what could have happened had we lost him for even a month.
  
  
  Agreed we have been very solid in CM but we also have plenty of cover too, Coquelin is ready to step up and Frimpong if he can stay away from injury can also do a job.We also have some good young guns coming thru who Mike could probably highlight better than me.
  Also Ox who will probably end up playing in CM.

  Morning. Eight games yesterday and a few IMO, well dubious marks but as i say IMO and i've only seen one game in it's entirety, (Liverpool) and the rest on the joke highlights that go under the banner of MOTD, along with a few radio comments and parts of Sky Soccer Saturday - as it happened.
  
  Anyway on with the ratings/comments on that basis.
  
  Champions v Norwich
  
  6 DE GEA (back to normal- didn't have to use his hands in this game.. or his legs come to think of it)
  6 SMALLING
  7 VIDIC (had to laugh at his British Bulldog dive/splash on-top-of-Martin who proceeded to miss the target from 3 yards, even if it was offside- surely a pen if it wasn't)
  6 EVANS
  7 EVRA
  6 VALENCIA (gone from winger of the season early doors- to a downing impersonation)
  5 ANDERSON
  8 CARRICK
  9 BRUCE LEE STARMAN
  7 RVP (again had to laugh at hansen/shearer who claimed it was a good knock down for bruce's ist goal-WAS IT eff,it was fortuetous from rvp)
  8 ROONEY (motm all day long for me despite bruce hatrick)

  7 CECH (motm contender for me- along with his opposite number)
  6 AZPILI-"CUTA" (not very cute when he missed an easy chance)
  7 IVANOVIC
  6 LUIZ (did well to head back for Ba's goal)
  7 COLE
  6 RAMIRES
  7 BARNDOOR (apparantly scored a disallowed goal- not deemed worthy to show on MOTD highlights- no shock)
  8 OSCAR (wud of been 4 if i gave the marks - his shooting nowhere near as accurate as the South African Oscar)
  9 MATA STARMAN (where the eff did that come from it had to be Cech or Foster even Benitez said as much)
  7 EDEN
  6 BA ( How dodgy is that tea-cosy? How big are his lips? Christ they are bigger than my calves)

  5 die hard
  
  6 SCHWARZER (started to go down like a felled tree after gardners bullet was rippling the net -shilton'esque at 40)
  6 RIETHER (lung bursting run- length of pitch to get on end and score- even if i must say it was offside)
  5 IAMfookingDROSS (eff toilet this player- cannot believe shearer/hansen said not a pen, he yanked graham back and spun him around when clean thru, not to even mention his handballs later in game)
  7 HANGELAND (even he got in the handball act before dross patted one down)
  7 RIISE
  6 KARAGOOOON
  6 SIDWELL

  -----------------------------------------------------------
  
  Reflections- Not alot as my main gripes have been mentioned with some of the dubious marking- Samba Mata Hernandez
  
  The mercenaries got an unexpected win under Harry who was scathing in his attack on the Mirror report about their Dubai jaunt. Personally i believe the story because i know when Harry is lying it's everytime he opens his eff big fat gob. Remy took his goal well, nice to see Hoilet back in the side, the better team lost and it will remain a mystery how Samba was deemed to of been the best and most influential player on the pitch. Great late save from Green too.
  
  United by all accounts had an easy win, but for 75 mins they laboured, obviously thoughts of this Tuesday's likely exit from the Champions League was on their minds. I thought Rooney was imperious today and definately was the best player on the day, i am actually suprised the Sun didn't give it to Rooney too.
  Thought Vidic's attempt to bundle, British-Bulldog style, Russell Martin over when he was presented with an open goal was a joke beyond a joke. If the whistle hadn't of gone he would surely of received yet another red card to addto his growing collection.
  
  Everton got back to winning ways heaping even more pressure on Arsenal today to get a result(C'MON SPURS), but at what cost. Howard and Jagielka both injured. I have no idea how long for , but they won't sustain a push without either. Everton's player of the season opened the scoring and yet was still slightly overshadowed by a Piennar masterclass. Reading battled but are surely doomed when you look at their next few fixtures.
  
  Thought Sunderland drew another game they should of won.
  Halsey should not of been allowed to return as a premier ref as the game has passed him by.
  His officiating is of kids park soccer standard- of that there is no doubt- (AS FERGY SAYS). Sunderland, for me at least, should of won this game in a canter with a proper ref.
  
  Chelsea laboured to a 1-0 and for me again at least the talking points were how well each keeper played. No probs for the sun assessor when marking up the game- Rob Beasley- his attutide is obviously- what does it matter, GIVE IT TO MATA!
  Beasley your a weasley BELLEND!
  
  Stoke lost yet another game but only their second at home, but arguably deservedly.
  Good to see WHU record a rare away win after losing 2 players in the first few mins- although some, myself included, would argue Joe Cole is not a player. Nice to see Collisons obvious enjoyment at scoring after the last few years he has had with longterm injuries and personal upheaval, (losing his father in a bike accident).
  I forgot that Charlie Adam plays for Stoke, and he nearly scored a cracking goal, smacking the bar with Jaska beaten. Thought Jerome's appeal for a penalty was a eff joke of the highest order and am disappointed the interviewer didn't pose the question to Pullis, as we know how he hates a cheat. Crouchs overhead kick was appalling and Pulli's winge on that Stoke shud of received a penalty for a handball was laughable. You got what you deserved Tony.. eff all and i mean eff all.
  
  Swansea, you would of thought, would go through the motions now, no worries of relegation and Europe guaranteed. Michu, to me looks burnt out, i would rest him for a few games and am suprised Laudrap hasn't .
  I've despised Pardew all my life and i enjoy seeing any of his teams lose (much like Arsenal) ALWAYS.
  His postmatch comments were bitter and twisted about feeling his team deserved something and more. Perhaps he ought to be asked about the Viciousness of Cabaye's and Tiote's upteenth x-rated tackles.
  
  Finally we come to Liverpools games at the DW stadium. As Always when i see Carragher or the crab in the line up i fear the worst. They were easily the two poorest players in a red shirt yesterday and that is undisputable.
  JOE ALLEN SHOULD NEVER GET ANYWHERE NEAR THE FIRST TEAM AGAIN IF LIVERPOOL HAVE ASPIRATIONS
  TO DO ANYTHING IN THE FUTURE!
  There i've said it now, i so rarely get a chance to comment on a Liverpool game as they invariably play on a Sunday. Coutinho looked , in Bucks words, Exceptional in the first half, alongside Reina, who made 3 or 4 wondrous saves, and yet wigan looked shit, how did they get in these positions to even shoot. I BLAME THE STARTING LINE-UP, Carra & Crab. If the Crab has reclaimed his place for the remainder of the season in midfield then Suarez will be off. The SAS cannot make run after run knowing that the Crab has not a forward, creative, pass in his locker. It is DETRIMENTAL to play the crab, if Rodgers cannot see this he ought to be SACKED. SELL THE chap, CUT YOUR LOSSES, HE IS ONE OF THE MAIN REASONS Liverpool have been shit this
  season. I thought it was a blessing when Borini got injured long term- if only it happened to the crab too.
  
  
  Two Hatricks scored yesterday and its obvious who i am going to pick as player of the day.
  
  
  
  
  
  his performance yesterday overshadowed both hatricks for me, especially as one of Suarezs was a deflection, and one of Kagawas was an open goal which presented itself from first a rvp miskick , then a kagawa miskick itself.
  Rooney set up on a plate Kagawas other goals- even though Suarezs other goals were class.
  
  
  tusser of the day..
  
  Few candidates
  
  Pullis (moaning)
  Pardew (bleating)
  Crouch (kicking)
  Jerome( cheating)
  Redknapp (continual lying)
  Wigan (infighting)
  
  nah none of them it goes to this deluded idiot for comments made on Friday.
  
  
  
  
  For his comments about Gareth Bale and Spurs.
  "We're not a one man team"
  "We have goalscorers all over the pitch, Walcott, Giraffe, Santa, supersub and wait for it, I THINK JACK WILTSHIRE WILL SCORE AS WELL, SO WE HAVE MANY"
  
  Jack eff Wiltshire has scored ONE CAREER GOAL for Arsenal
  
  Wenger admits he has no special plans for Bale.
  
  C'MON Gareth.
  
  Rant over.
  
  PS I've had my parents down from North London this weekend.
  My dad is a diehard Gooner and hates Liverpool, he came to a local pub last night to watch the Suarez demolition with my son, another diehard Liverpool supporter. we laughed loud at him.
  
  Today i shall be driving back to Totteridge around 3.30 to drop my parents off and hopefully Spurs bury Arsenal in the comfort of his own home. Change that i'll leave at halftime, chucked out for laughing when Spurs go in 3 up at the break.
  
  Dot.

  Would you be at all amenable to a combination?
  
  De Gea above Begovic if you are getting them at their current prices.
  
  Prefer Rafael (or Evans for a cheaper version) above Azpil due to rotation risk.
  
  Would plump for Clyne above Cameron with a view to bringing in Wilson when he is back (which should be soon).
  
  Frimpong?? No chance - I prefer Maloney in that price bracket although Guthrie is an OK shout.
  
  Would not double up on Suarez and Sturridge, Giroud is a good option but after today I am concerned about both his gametime and output. Has Villa next but I would seriously consider Lambert/Benteke instead at that price range.

  Yes he did say that didn't he? Wise man that Wenger.

  
  
  “I believe that we have a good core of young English players. We couldn’t keep the good core of young foreign players but I hope we will be capable of building the team around these English players and for them to achieve something together".
  
  I disagree with him
  
  But I can't see why fox posts something like that out of context - as an arsenal fan - as red eye says all managers will say the right things, no manager is going to say " this lot are ok but not great" - and it's true we do have better cover than in the past but at no point has Wenger said this is his best side.
  
  Fox?
  
  
  http://www1.skysports.com/football/news ... best-squad
  Wenger said in the Daily Star Sunday: "As a squad, I have more quality. This is the best since I have been here"
  "When you consider the players out injured like Jack Wilshere, Tomas Rosicky and Emmanuel Frimpong, it only adds to what I believe. Yes, the best."

  I am sure he said the same end of January, I will find the link.

  Someone was reporting that Arsene has decided that Villa is too old, and will look for younger...
  
  Spurs aren't that weak up top, as Dempsey can play there and will fit their style; and Adebayor will be back soon. (I am amazed AVB has got Defoe regularly scoring, though.)
  
  To the list of players out: hasn't Frimpong gone somewhere? Fulham?
  
  Not sure why he didn't go for Drogba, who wold have ticked a fair few boxes, imho; and I refuse to believe that there isn't a strong DM somewhere out there.....

  This is excellent news as Podolski is in my team. Ox on the bench is even better as a colleague has him as captain - a 10 minute run-out at the end would be the best possible scenario.

  Interesting to see where Coquelin comes in. As I've probably said before I think he's a top quality prospect, more so than Frimpong, and may play understudy to Arteta. Always been impressed with his tackling, positioning, and distribution, and he's a player that doesn't give up. Perhaps could explain AW's reluctance to buy a younger player and perhaps go for someone more established and perhaps cheaper as a result.

  Is there a list of players who will be off to the African Cup of Nations?
  It might be helpful for those wanting to transfer players now that the Group Stages in OFL have begun. Last year I made the mistake of transferring in Gervinho 1 match before he left for the ACoN and I do not want to make that same mistaken again
  
  Update December 25th
  And here's the list of players what will be off, roughly between January 19 and February 10, 2013:
  
  Arsenal Emmanuel Frimpong, Daniel Jesse Boateng (Ghana), Gervinho (Ivory Coast), Marouane Chamakh (Morocco)
  Aston Villa Karim El Ahmadi (Morocco)
  Chelsea John Obi Mikel, Victor Moses (Nigeria), Bertrand Traore (Burkina Faso)
  Fulham Mahamadou Diarra (Mali)
  Liverpool Oussama Assaidi (Morocco)
  Manchester City Kolo Toure, Yaya Toure (Ivory Coast)
  Newcastle United Cheick Tiote (Ivory Coast)
  Queens Park Rangers Samba Diakite (Mali)
  Tottenham Hotspur Emmanuel Adebayor (Togo)
  West Ham United Modibo Maiga (Mali)
  Wigan Athletic Arouna Kone (Ivory Coast)
