agree.. Its the only place i saw a huge mistake from Sczeny..
But its a shame that it happened on the most crucial time in the most silliest way.. And we know it was the turning point and it spoiled our season...

To add to Jay's points (Which I fully agree with):

Chamakh is miles ahead of Bendtner in terms of link-up play and holding the ball. Bendtner, for all his size, doesn't do a good job at holding up the ball. To add to that, Chamakh is more mobile when played in the CF position. He constantly rotated positions with our wingers which worked wonders at the start of last season. Bendtner usually just stays in the center, without moving too much which usually gives defenses less trouble in general.

i dont agree.. I feel we have given Bendtner enough chances.. So i dont want him to see him preferred as 2nd choice (not sure he will be ready) or given more chances.. We could give his playing time to some one from the reserves...

We've given Bendtner chances...on the freakin wings! He still managed to score many goals and have several "wow" moments. We rarely, if ever, played him as the CF last season, so I really don't consider that "giving him plenty of chances"

you know the problem i see with chamack is that he wants to take part in build play but in doing that he doesn't get into the right position when required. bendtner though is more direct type and he will take a shot even if he has 15% chance of scoring. to sum it up chamack loves arsenal and he wants to score the best goal but in doing so he over commits. the thing with forwards is that they need to score ugly chamack cant.

why dont they try and find a decent back-up.

If it is scoring ugly then that is something that can be learned. His touch is really good for a target man and he gives something a new dimension to arsenals play. its not just goals when chamakh plays the team plays alot better. just watch morocco destroying us and youll see an inform chamakh

Chamakh, ffs!

He came to the premier league, in his first season he did great at the start, but faded away as the season went on.

I don't know what is to be blamed for that, but what I know is that this coming season, he'll be banging in his fair share of goals, and helping Arsenal to a title!
