I would not trust Jenkinson against Everton either.
He is still really raw but well worth persevering with but he's not ready to play EPL unless it's a dire emergency: he's still a baby!
I tell ya what though, watching that vision, it reminded me that we still have Campbell don't we? I'd be playing him against Everton instead of that buffoon Giroud. He is a really good player that young Joel Campbell. He's just got that something about him and he is one player that I would hate to lose because he felt he wasn't getting a go.
Giroud copping it, he's not going to score every game, he was fantastic last season, jumping the gun people.
He was not fantastic. He was adequate.
How many teams have better number 1 striker than Arsenal now? I would think around 10.

His finishing is his biggest downfall. Just so wasteful. Should have a lot more goals against his name.
Any news one the Arteta injury? Looked pretty nasty.

He is in a moon boot. Dont think anything else is known so far.

He's only 3 months younger than Chambers.
I read about the moon boot after the game, Wenger said he "turned on his ankle". Not sure how long he's out for though.
Flamini the most likely to come in this weekend but wonder if Wenger will start Mertesacker and push Chambers into midfield.
Yeah, but Chambers is a big, strong lad that's played EPL for a season whereas the other kid, he's still learning but I'm not dismissing him at all. He's going to be a good player with natural progression; an excellent player if he is tutored correctly in the art of defending.
That was one of the things that was really obvious to me in Brazil and that was that many players are not very good at defending even though they were played as fullbacks, center halves, deep lying mids. The art of defending and tackling in particular, has been getting worse and worse and at this World Cup, it was really obvious that remedial action is urgent.
He is a converted winger as well

He was not fantastic last season. Yesterday it was not about him not scoring ( though scoring helps) It was about the fact that ke gave away the ball everytime it went near him, it was like playing with 10 men or even worse as if he was not on the pitch atleast we would not have tries to involve him in link up play...
aha, now that makes a lot of sense. He does look really competent going forward but needs work defensively: top prospect though!
Hoping to see Campbell play this weekend. Rosicky in for Cazorla would be good too.
Mate, he's a proven performer, carried the forward line last season admirably, even the best ones have a night off.

If we don't sign that superstar DM we all crave, could we take back at Alex Song?
I think he's getting an unfair rap. Capable of playing DM and CB. Still young. Upgrade on Arteta and Flamini. Available on loan. Fills our needs.

There are rumors he and Bould got into it before he left. He regressed at the end of his time at Arsenal. We can do much better.
He was also rumoured to be an egotistical and disruptive influence on the squad. We can do so much better. His Arsenal days are hopefully done.

The bloke is 3 in 23 vs the top 7 over 2 years, lots of strikers in Europe would have his Goal scoring record as the main focal point of attack with the midfield he has behind him.
