No If you beat Chelsea your only 3 points off them.
I know, but if we lose we are 9 points away and that IMO is what will happen.
to Gerd and Jumbo.
I'm not talking about a player that can change a game at the drop of a hat and not be involved in the rest of the game (Like Arshavin).
Denilson on alot of occasions loves attacking and going forward, but when a team conter attacks and is bombing away, he can have every oportunity to catch them up. But choses to jog back, hoping that we will get the ball back and he will be more advanced so he can have a chance up front.
When you see goals like what happened with Man Utd and they run past your player, or your player is near them, but makes no attempt to hassle them and close them down. Then that is lazy in my opinion and they should be getting close to people and not letting them get near the goal so a scoring opportunity can be had.
I'm not just blaming Alumnia or Denilson, they are examples of weaknesses in the team. I have no qualms about pointing out what players do wrong, because these flaws in players can be detrimental to the team and can cost the team points.
I think denilson is great, but he represents Arsenal at the moment. When things are going well we are fine. When shit starts to happen, they expect things to happen to rectify it, instead of working their arses off to get a result.
Man Utd didn't have a great team out on Sunday, the difference is they have players that fight to the end and have desire, we don't necessarily have one player like that? maybe Fabregas (he definately has the desire).
Its just frustrating we have alot of really good players and if they had a better work ethic, I reckon we could have a world beating team. But they think they are alot better than they actually are at the moment.
I am also blaming Wenger on this as this is the team he has assembled. he needs to realise that some players jsut don't cut the mustard and he needs to stick his hands in his pockets and stregthen the team.....hopefully with players that can actually get through a season without getting injured 20 times during it.
Anyway, I hope they prove me wrong on Sunday and they get their act together.
I love my team, but it is begginning to be the same old story year after year.
