Creative Edge Missing vs Lotto Chavs

I would like to see Diaby and Denilson start in the middle.

I agree with vavavoom!! Bert was dreadful, though I agree with Prits that Denilson should start. It wasn't until he came on in the second half that we had any outlets in the middle.

flamini and diarra did pretty well in the first half against the villains ... albeit that was thanks to hleb .. but perhaps diaby, flamini and diarra in the middle can do well enough i'd hate to see eboue play again after his ridiculous antics at the riverside .. and i'm not sure if walcott can do a good job on the wings against the chavs and bendtner has to be given a chance, he is definitely more creative than adebayor, although if RvP is back having ade and robin together would be great ah what a headache

As a Hartlepool fan, even I managed to crack a smile and enjoy the boro on sunday! Tuncay ran his absolute puddings off for the full 90 mins, Walcott appearing sooner could well have been the sort of rapid breaks can the Gooners needed to relieve a bit of the pressure! On a more amusing note, I can't actually believe the Gooners bus got lost trying to find the River-dive, it's the only thing for miles around over on the wasteland! Loves it.......

Definately a denilson start partnered by Diarra. And more drifting in from Rosicky probably.

I don't mind if Arsene send out some 16-year-olds to face Steaua this Wed. Must keep the key players fresh and hungry for Chelsea. I'm confident the guys will bounce back from the Boro shame. And Gael will have an absolutely cracking game!

Louisa no problem in accessing Arsenal.com. We seem to have dropped our heads a little over the past three games. The points we gained were not what we expected especially after the start we have had. Reflecting on those three games 2 points would have generous let alone 4. We didnt play overall bad, but turning off the rose coloured glasses we were lucky to get what we did. But this period is just the blip all teams go through. We have far too good a team not too climb back again to the heights we were at. I would prefer a different combination at the front to start with: what is wrong with bringing Ade on as a sub for a few weeks. Teams seem to have worked out that by eliminating the ball delivered to Ade, playing deep up the park stops our flow, which over the three games seems to have slowly dried up. I have total faith in the boss to overcome this blip and with the return of our injuries we will return to our previous form. The worrying factor for me is the late tackles that keep occurring;we are not blameless in this regard either the need for referees to start sending players off needs to start.

Arsene should show the players how Avram Grant has just had a dig at us and give them the motivation they need to face Chelsea: http://www.dailystar.co.uk/football/view/23613/Av-does-a-Jose-with-his-rivals/

No need to change the system. Rosicky anyway drifts into the centre and Denilson would be as good as Lehmann on the left. Just Denilson in for Gilberto/ Diarra.

Oh and on another point from this weekend, did anyone else love the irony of Jamie Carragher conceding a penalty that never should have been given?

i hope van persie dont play i think he is outstanding player.

im a united fan but i have to say i think arsenal have a strong chancce of winning it this year and cesc, van persie , hleb are all vital players for yah ! ..

RvP did well against Steaua. Hope he starts against Chelsea! He and Bendtner looked a pretty decent partnership too. In terms of current form, both of them and Theo are better than Ade to be honest.
