Arsenal, my Arsenal...

We are troubled. 3 successive defeats (Sunderland 1-0, Chelsea 3-0 & Man City 3-0) and our free scoring spree from earlier in the season gone, coinciding with the inevitable season ending injury to Van Persie (he seems to always get season ending injuries). We of course did not score in any of those 3 games. Eduardo and Vela have not impressed in the lone striker position up front Van Persie thrived in earlier. It's clear, Wenger needs to change his policy and buy big in January, and I'm not speaking of no Chamakh. Yaya Toure, Luca Toni and Ruud Van Nistelrooy are currently unsettled and looking to move, especially with the world cup looming, that's the kind of buy big (both size and stature) I mean.

We face Stoke at home tomorrow and Olympiakos away on wednesday. At least we've confirmed tough spot for the champions league which isn't an easy feat considering big teams like Inter Milan are currently struggling.

With Bendtner, Walcott and Van Persie out, maybe a 4-4-2 with both Eduardo n Vela would be a better option or we play all midfielders up front. Bendtner has potential and has improved immensely, but I don't see us WINNING with this team. God help us...
