Its good that we lose games that dont mean shit, I hope this make Wenger bring in players, we cant do this in EPL and CL.

gervinho looked like pele in comparison to majority of the team

Gervinho had a decent first half but drifted out the game in the second half.

The most notable thing, for me, was the complete lack of cohesion between the offense and the midfield. Its like they were separate units

Benfica's pressure really made it difficult for the midfield and offense to really link up effectively. It was telling that I could barely remember that Ramsey and Rosicky was playing.

joel campbell is coming lol dont worry Very Happy

cambell is better then chamakh thats for sure, campbell will be good enough, we dont need someone world class just a replacement that is capable of scoring goals. campbell i believe can do that.

by REWB Sat Aug 06, 2011 11:59 pm

but what we really need after a cb is a dm because frimpong is just not ready, he is gonna be great but right now he needs to go on loan like jack did.

Are you sure, I hope you are right, we need a quality striker ASAP.

our first 11 did well, and then if we keep cesk and his focus we be better
