I think, with a fully-fit Van Persie in their team for most of the season, Arsenal would be up there with Chelsea right now. The remaining players play lovely football and Fabregas is always worth a few goals from midfield a-la Lampard, but Van Persie was the only one who had the 'cutting edge' Arsenal are often cited as missing at the moment. For what it's worth, I think Van Persie's an underrated player and Arsenal miss him as much as Liverpool miss Torres. Lovely one-touch passing around the edge of the box is all well and good but you still need someone who could burst through the backline and snack the ball into the back of the net, and RVP does that pretty well. I'm still far from convinced by Eduardo or Bendtnar. Without Rooney, Man Utd would probably be below Arsenal right now. The only one of the big clubs who don't seem to rely on their top goalscorer so heavily is Chelsea, who did fine without him when he went to Africa last month. Hence why they'll win the league this year, probably at a canter if Rooney gets injured or loses form for a few games. -- Joe "I am the fat puddin', but a single puddingness" - Vicky Conlan

Eduardo looked decent until that injury and I have a hunch like many others that Bendtner will never cut it at this level. Van Persie is a quality striker who knows how to find the net but he has had a terrible time of it with injuries. It looks like Wenger is hoping to get Chamakh (spelling?) on a free transfer this summer. -- Count Baldoni In hoc signo vinces

Making out that Arsenal are to be held up as an example of how it should be done, when the reality is that they're more likely to have problems than most other 'big' clubs. Even worse, you haven't had any success on the pitch to back up the spending and borrowing. Let's put it in a simple manner. You have borrowed more money than you can raise from selling the burgers you have in stock. -- SteveH |
