Game at The Blue Mancs

is a bit of a test which I fancy us to pass. Anything can happen in football, of course but I've just got the feeling that this Arsenal team/squad has massive potential - we look far, far better than last season and with The Spaniards controlling their respective patches, the defence looking like a unit for the first time in ages and the threat that Podolski poses to defences, to say nothing of the lightening movement of Gervinho and any other combination that Le Boss might choose to play (Diaby, The Ox, Giroud) I doubt we'll be an easy team for anyone to pick off this time around - come on you Arsenal!

yeah, hopefully it's a good game overall.

Probably a draw was a fair result but we did have those chances, Gervinho early on, Podolski then Gervinho at the death. Not our best performance of the season to date but I thought Ramsey and the BFG were excellent - lots to be hopeful for in the coming months for us Gooners methinks!

With RvP you lot would have 15 points i think..

Shame you have addressed issues at the back but lost a finisher who can turn 1 point into 3..
