First of all, I wanna say that the result is amazing, really amazing. Everybody is making comment on how amazing is our player, so I don’t need to say that again :p.

I am disappointed that Everton scored at 90++, this kind of thing can’t happened in our pursuit of the title.

Go Gunners!!!

Hi team,
I must confess that i never expected such score line most especially as it was against a “strong” everton side that on a good day could beat any team in the world. great job guys i just hope that this season we could be more consistent than wa were last season and i believe we will do it this season

We needed a tough bast**d like vermaelen – As for the media, forget about them – talk is cheap – we know who we are and who we support – as long as our players have the right attitude and fight for every loose ball we will be ok and our quality will win in the end – If our defenders and midfielders do their jobs Arshavin,Eduardo and Van Persie
will take care of business – Come on Thomas Rosicky, where are you.

I guess we just TOOK OUR CHANCES WELL, this is Championship stuff,can we be this consistent throughout the season?……..Still no signings?
@ LAKESIDE GUNNER – Maybe it is lakeside soccer you are used to. You dare say we need no more signings?
@SPANISH – Another excellent write-up…..the reason I read this blog. Nicely written and all well put in context.
@SHAMBO – Well done there mate.
@ICE – Congrats HAMMERS, well done

There are 2 areas for which we need to buy more players. Cover at DM – Song is the starter, his performance at Everton made this clear. But if he goes down or when he is away at ACN, we need someone else to fill in and we don’t have anyone. Denilson could fill in there, but that would be a drop in quality and also takes Denilson out of his best position.

I think we have the same issue at CB. If Vermaele and Gallas continue playing as well as at Everton, again, both are starters no question. But if we get an injury or two, which knowing us, we will. We don’t have the cover.

I really feel this is the biggest barrier between Arsenal and a trophy, depth and more specifically experienced depth.

So, pick up 2 more experienced back ups and we’re in with as good a chance as anyone.

Great stuff all around. Vermaelen and Song looked solid. Denilson looked a lot more comfortable in a less defensive position. But the big surprise for me was Bendtner out wide causing all sorts of havoc. I didn’t think he had it in him to be so effective there.

I hope the team can show more consistency this year. Looking at the current squad, I’m not quite convinced of that yet. I hope they prove me wrong.
