Boro 2 - 0 Arsenal

I have no complain for the team. Each and everyone of them played well. Cygan? We know he has that capability to mess things up so when your manager plays him you have to accept him making blunders. He just tried his best and we all know his best sucks.

We've got so many chances and had majority of the possession but neither win you three points. For all Bergkamp's techniques and Reyes' pace we need van Persie's finishing. Reyes was dangerous throughout. Had he started with van Persie we might have won the game. No. Reyes should've started on the left flank instead and van Persie should partner Quincy upfront. Pires' inability to return to his old form is obvious for anyone to see bar Wenger. And attention the Boro players gave to Hleb indicated that everyone now know that Hleb is the new Pires. The magician midfield who could deliver that killer pass. Rochemback was a dirty player by the way.

Same old issue, we've also suffered from our persistence to attack from the middle. Playing one-touch passes in the middle of the park the way we did against a packed 4-5-1 side proves suicidal at times but Wenger loves his way of playing too much. I've given up on believing that we will one day make full use of the flanks. I can only hope that Wenger can get players as good as Robinho and Baptista coz when you've got these players you could just destroy any opposition from the middle.
