As I mentionned above that ive just watched all the Arsenal game 2007 and 2008, Ive personnaly gave up with this idea of strngthenin our defence.Its obvious, we need CDM, and I strongly recommend Toure for that job, but finally, I found out our main PBM: AW is a man who beleives in: THE BEST DEFENCE IS ATTACKIN.He has built the team that way.When I watched our 2007 games, i could see that most of these teams who has defeated us this season played exactly the same style of game last season but they couldnt perform so much as our attackin side were so strong for them so that they were always held at their own defensive side.The game is completely Psycological.At the 1st 10mn of the game, they try to attack @their best, but just when we start attackin then all their mdlfldr start to pull back coz most of our attack are all dangerous.And this is what makes the diffrence between the so called BIG 4 and the rest of the league.The Pbm isnt really that our defence is so weak, It is our attack which is WEAK.Durin the first half of this season, Our guys couldnt perform any attackin strategy planned by AW, coz 1st: they were new to it, coz they have only practiced it durin trainin session.2 nd: Some of the key players are gone.3 rd: Even AW did nt know where exactly is the best position for those new players, the likes of Nasri, Vela, and some of them were all subsitute last year.Plus they are all young players who can improve and change their style game after game.

then I strongly recommend your idea.Look at ManU, they are also opting the same tactics that you recommend but take a look at the vivacity and the dynamism of every ManU players on the pitch.They all attack together and defend together, and I beleive that you have also noticed this on ManU.If we want this line up to happen again then this is exactly the way that all Arsenal players should behave on the pitch.Defend together up fron the centre and attack together (Like sagna and Clichy do to back the wing upfront) And we had this line up during the startin of the season but our players were not strong enough to defend together.They did nt want to run when defendin but they all wanted to when attackin.Denilson has improved a lot on his defense, I must admit but he still got ta do more.And I personnaly beleive that all these 5defeats had a big impact and gave us a gud lesson on our defensive quality.This concerns all our mdfld players including Fab, I could also see him improving a lot on his defensiv quality after all of these Arsenal crisis.But for now we need Song for not loosin games anymore.
