Denilson is not strong enough or quick enough to play the holding role. If you are able, watch the Celtic game again and take note how many times he passed the ball sideways and backwards or was pushed off the ball. His energy level is good but not as high as Songs. He is not as athletic either. In saying that, his varity of passes is slightly better than Songs but thats about all.

@oracle: spot on mate. Not sure what purpose this cartoon serves except to take the p*ss out of one our best players. Wish I’d put him in my dream team.

it’s a shit cartoon, not funny and disrespectful – what the hell do you know about football anyway you ignorant peasants? running across the path of the ball IS practiced in training on free kicks – and of course sometimes it will deflect in the net. gallas has every right to celebrate getting a goal from a move he has rehearsed maybe ten-thousand times. fuck you!

@ Oracle – I have no problems with Gallas at all. Think he’s a top player who struggled as a captain, but has been extremely good since.

ok. Sorry about that. Its just I know some fans still have deep rooted problems with gallas and I thought u were having a sneaky dig at him. The end pic is actually very funny.

i think they could definately swap. and i don’t know. song for me sometimes is not penetrating enough or chooses to penetrate with through balls at the wrong time.

he uses the pitch horizontally wonderfully. there is a variety of options wenger has in all the positions i think.

@Kbomb – You think Denilson can play the holding CM role as well as Song has these first few games? He has worked well with Cesc so far, but I don’t see him being the physical presence needed in front of the back four. Despite his good start, I think Denilson will be the man left out upon Nasri’s return.

i think he slots into denilsons role and denilson swaps for songs role. at least, i think he should.

also. pretty funny comic. and for those who think it was crazy gallas celebrated for the goal.

a) that game “basically” meant champions league football for us.

b) did you see how he celebrated when he blocked that pinpoint low-cross? it was 2x as passionate as his goal. he just has a very intense mentality!

When Nasri is back fit, does he slot into Denilson’s position in the middle? And does Walcott’s eventual return mean Arsenal have a 5 man rotation for the top 3? That’s not even counting Vela, who I still rate quite highly. Other than a backup for when Song heads to Africa and maybe a replacement for Senderos when his transfer is finalized, I am happy with the state of the squad. In Wenger we trust!
