One Nil To The Opposition!

“Buy a striker Arsene.” “Why doesn’t Arsene buy a winger?” “Wenger should seriously fish in the market for a strong, tough-tackling midfielder.” “Arsenal needs a mean defender if they are to remain in contention this term.” And as we were busy quoting, re-quoting the above, another one flew in our net! Hell, the ‘one nil to the Arsenal’ coinage has now become ‘Arsenal one down’ & the prime reason behind this is not the paucity of forwards, or the inability of our mid-fielders, or for that matter the brawn of our defence. More often than not, it’s the custodian who has let the team down. 11G probes the case of ‘The 3 Muskepeers’ right now..

Recent injuries to Almunia and Fabianski has left a gaping void between the sticks @ N5. Often the least celebrated position on the pitch, its importance in deciding crunch games can’t be ignored. Vito Mnnone was handed the burden of filling-IN for his more experienced peers and boy did he impress at the weekend with a Man-of-the-Match performance against Fulham.
