arsenal never did look the same after the departure of talismanic viera , but i think fabregas coped well with the great responsibility wihch was often questioned

and arsenal are developing yet some more youngsters in their second string , ex-Parma trainee Arturo Lupoli and prolific Danish youth Nicklas Bendtner have recently been on the end of som rave reviews and may well make their way in the first squad some time in the future

I like Cesc. He is a superstar. Watching him is a pure joy - his vision, technical skills are out of this world.

But I am not so sure on their second string of youngsters. Probably over-hyped by media other than anything else.

Arsenal do have attractive individual piece. There is no doubt on this issue. Toure, Cesc, Henry, Van Persie and Gallas are world beaters IMO. Rosicky, Gilberto, Freddy are solid vets. Eboue has abundance of potential. But the balance isnt quite there. They definitely looked better with Freddy on their team with more industry in the midfield, bar minus some individual quality. Arsene will probably on the market for his eventual successor and finding this player could be the key cog for Arsenal. Someone who can give some all-round game in the mid. A better left-book wouldnt hurt idea.

Is it just be or has Rosicky been dissapointing so far?
Very much so. He's been one of my favourite players for a long time and I really expected a lot from him. Plus he's in my Fantasy Football team, and has been netting me very few points :mad:

and yes,Fuck you Christiano Ronaldo.
Wel I agree with you Salman on Rosicky. He has shown flashed of brilliance at times, but for one reason or another he doesnt really get into the game enough. But I am willing to give him some adjustment periods to the EPL. Rosicky is probably not a someone who you can class as master-league but he has been a great performer for Czech for prolonged periods, and I think he deserve a benefit of doubt at this stage.

Nonetheless, EPL does make you a vicious - I laughed my head off when dear Thomas gave on Sheffield Utd player a good thump in the back of the leg. I mean, did I see Rosicky doing that?:smoke: :D .

I bet gray is absolutely enjoying Christiano's performance right now. He is the difference between Chelski and ManUre ATM.

Ronaldo has infact been brilliant even though i hate to admit it.What's surprised me most is how fragile Chelsea have looked without Terry at the back.With their money i thought that they'd have some decent back up in the squad.They've conceded 2 goals for the 3rd game in a row,and had it not been for Drogba's great form,Man Utd might've had a 10+ lead over them.The 2nd goal that they conceded yesterday had their defence line in TOTAL disarray.I think this will finally be the season where Chelsea are outdone.

Actually I'm not a Man U fan (I'm neutral in the Premiership), though I do prefer them to Chelsea these days since the Blues are the big dogs now. I only care about them because of Park Ji-Sung.

That said, I do admire Cristiano as a player, and his performances have been a pleasure to behold. Good to see so much raw talent finally being turned into end results.

Wow that was a surprise. I thought you would be a massive ManUre fan given Park Ji-Sung's presence there. But yeah Ronaldo has finally starting to deliver, and he is just about unstoppable right now. He is still an ass though.:D

Good mention Salman on Chelski's defence. If anything, it was their back-line was the main reason that won them the title last few years. Obviously, Terry's influence go just beyond good defensive skill. He is the leader at the back, and without him Chelsea will suffer from lack of organization. Its just amazing how one player can make such a difference. But Chelski also shot themselves on the foot with William Gallas. Ashely Cole is an overrated sh*t who suffers from megalomania. And the matter of fact is central defender is far far more important a full-back. No matter how good full-back is you just don't send world-class super versatile center back and some money on top of that, especially if the trading partner is your rival. Paolo Ferreira at the center back? Even Kallon will fancy his chances.:D

It is so obvious that many people are simply jealous of Cristiano Ronaldo. And it's really unfair to him. He can't help that he is handsome, he can't help that he is charming and finally he can't help that he is the rising star of football!

He maybe a good player, but he's also a diving crybaby. Not a person I would like to have in my team

The commentators said that Mourinho feels that Ferreira isnt a good enough player.He isnt that bad TBH.We could use him at Juventus at RB!:D
Just any player is better than Zebina unless you are not named Birindelli (I like the man, but it seems he is done) or Gael Clichy (He sucks ass).

On a serious note, I also don't think Ferreira isnt that bad. Its obvious from his demeanors he doesnt have confidence, and in sprots, this is the difference from failure and success. Beside, taking into consideration Chelsea's generosity to the Italian teams in the past, we might just get him one of those eternal long-term loans deals with an option that will never be exericised.:D. He still makes shit CB though - I think Chelski will be in a market for one in the winter break - I wouldnt be surprised if they have been scouting Serie A.
