The Arsenal performances of the last few games are not a surprise. I knew that we were truly dreadful without Hleb and Fabregas and to see Arsenal prove me right was sickening. They were actually even worse than I thought they would be. It's quite disturbing how much the rest of the players rely on Cesc and Hleb to show them the way; almost embarrasingly so.
Players like Toure, Eboue, Adebayor, Diarra, and even Rosicky seem completely incapable of instigating a move by themself. Really is quite a sobering thought.
