I meant – can you judge a player on one game. A game where we actually kept a clean sheet?

@ Berth:
We’ve just won a game – why so negative? Can you just Mert on one game?

Theo can never improve on the right wing (no insult intended), He can’t take on defenders one on one and he can’t cross. We have seen the best of Theo on that right side, I don’t expect anyting more from him if he continues to play in that position.

Now talking tactics, we were effectively playing 4-5-1 against Swansea at the emirates which is quite appalling!! We neede a second striker and taking offf RVP was tactically wrong. Either bring in a winger and move theo to the centre to pair with RVP, or bring in chamack and take of Ramsey off.

Met was slow, scott dann full of errors for b’burn, Cahill was nowhere near excellent. Only Samba was Good (These were the defenders we were linked with in the summer)

Even ur giant defender is too slow. Wenger’s suprise lack of flexibility is annoying. I think Wenger really should look himself in the mirror and ask if the formation is right, if buying Mert is right. Am really upset because I feel I know how the season will end.

We at least need to give 2 strikers a chance esp in home games. Theo had a frustrating day on the wing yesterday and as you said, RVP was a lone figure who struggled to get into the game. Putting Theo on the last shoulder of the defender with Arteta and RVP deeper would give us the cutting threat we lack. Teams come to our place with 2 banks of 4 and isolate our striker so we rely on the wings. It doesn’t always work.

We need to change the tactic – 2 strikers in front if we need to score a goal..last night we’re lucky,they (Swansea) gifted a goal, if not we will ended draw. We play good passing game but just that..only pass not shoot on goal. Plz!!! Wenger changed your tactic to 2 striker. Why not throw in Miyachi to assist Van Persie. Feel pity to Van Persie so lonely in front.

Did anyone watch the bolton game, cahill was the major reason they lost.
He couldnt win a single tackle in the game and neither was he able to complete a pass in 90 mins.
THANK GOD WE DIDNT SIGN HIM because he’s of the same class as squillaci
