There is much talk

of defence.
And while the centre
of defence is not a position that has been talked

of the priorities for the transfer window, I feel that being drawn against Barcelona should change that.
defence was poor but the media are not hating, Mustafi was very poor and deserves

This game contained, in brute list form: a remarkable opening goal from David Beckham (that has been almost completely forgotten by history, which says a lot
about what was to follow); a spawny equaliser; Roy Keane and Patrick Vieira; a (correctly) disallowed Nicolas Anelka goal that was (wonderfully) celebrated for fully a minute and a half; Jaap Stam and Tony Adams; a (deserved) red card that involved the referee actively pursuing Keane, the better to take (onanistic) pleasure in the act
of dismissal; extra-time; Arsenal pressure; a (hopelessly abject) foul from Phil Neville to concede a penalty; a surprisingly tepid missed penalty from Dennis Bergkamp; Peter Schmeichel saving; Peter Schmeichel barking; an unusually sleepy pass from Vieira; and then, that run, that finish, that goal, that winner, that completely stupid slalom through a stupified
defence.

I still don't see how he is a super sub.He's labelled as a super sub just because
of this season.Those matches when he scored he was supposed to be played because we needed an aerial presence.A lot
of those matches had he started we could've won because we needed aerial presence.But the thing is that his abilities don't suit him as a super sub.I mean he holds up the ball well and is great in the air and that's just
about it.He's actually the one one who needs service and who needs players around him to open up
defences for him to receive the pass and not vice versa.Super subs actually provide they are not the one's to be provided for.In Giroud's case he was supposed to start in those in matches as Sanchez was not up to the task in aerial battles.Giroud will not be able to affect a match if the opponents are as good in the air.

My opinion
of Campbell is that he looked very dangerous in one WC game and in that game every time he attacked the
defence he looked like scoring... which was
about four or five times overall.
but more importantly it should tell you that wenger no longer has a grasp on the strengths and weaknesses
of his team, or, indeed, what kind
of football he is trying to play... heard a lot
of people waffling on
about the end
of tika tak... we never got there because too many first team players lack the skills to do that kind
of football... ramsey walcott giroud merteshaker coquelin are not that kind
of player... nor do we rapidly convert
defence in to attack as we used to or press teams in their own half..

of the following season thinking we going to pick up from where we left off, then on the 3rd game we will realise that nothing has changed.We will still have Wenger as our manager, mediocre players, shambolic
