I've been out the back of beyond: no telli, no internet, no mobile coverage, no radio and the only snakes were those sunning themselves on the rocks in the mornings.
Reading through your posts comrades, it's become pretty obvious that the majority of you have warmed to the idea that we need a quality goalkeeper in order to mount a challenge towards winning things.
I got back on the friday and in time to watch us thrash Tottenham. I really enjoyed Vermaelen at left back 'cause he is more a stay-at-home full back and this helps Podolski's game immeasurably due to the fact that he, Podolski, can be much more of an attacking weapon then just merely
a covering player for Gibbs, who is not really a good defensive full back as well as not being able to hit the side of a barn with a cross from thirty yards and Santos, who can't defend if his life depended on it.
It was great to see Sagna back and playing: what an outstanding player!
I'm going to catch up with The Arsenal's EPL games that I missed and see for myself as to why Wenger replaced Mannone with Szczesny. Did he shoot Wenger's granny or something did he? Szczesny did not disappoint me with his now customary backpeddling when an opposition player is coming at goal with the ball and opening up the angle to make it easier for the player to score. It didn't take long to lose the cool and calm demeanour one has after "chilling out", so to speak, after a number of weeks in the nunga nunga. Thanks Szczesny!!!!!
