Arshavin's only up to Adebayor/Bendtner's armpits
Ahem. I just came across some jaw-dropping stuff.

Who'd expect the following:




That's our Russian compared to Adebayor and Bendtner. Andrey is 172cm. Now seriously. I can't imagine my 1.6m self next to Adebayor or Bendtner.

Our crafty players are midgets but that's fine, as long as they're crafty! Giant tall strikers are more predictable in their runs and easier to mark since they're not as quick. Adebayor's rather skilled but he has gotten lazy and his suffering from itchy feet hasn't got any better. Bentdner's work rate is up a lot and he is putting in decent performances albeit the misses. Still a player to watch for the future.

Whatever it is, however we finish, trophy or no trophy, I hope the squad stays together at least. New additions are welcomed but I want this entire squad fit for the next season. Wenger has worked too long with this bunch to let them move on to other clubs.

I'll welcome Flamini back too. Sp*rs and all their homecoming. Not a bad thing if it's Flam coming back.

FA Cup game tonight against Hull. It's at home. Hull have beaten us at home. They could count themselves very luck that time or we were just very poor. A bit of both. Anyhow, I expect us to take the game and meet Chelsea next at Wembley for the semi-finals. Arshavin is dying to play despite having 8 stitches to his foot thanks to some Blackburn foot slicing. I can't imagine a team who goes all out to injure, subtly and blatently. Sick bastards. Anyway if I had stitches I'll be moaning in bed. This is why I don't play football or anything close.

I think Van Persie should start, along with Vela, Gibbs and Fabianski. Maybe Gallas too in place of Toure. I wonder if Eboue will be given a place at right back in order to rest Sagna.

So YAAAY for football tonight. The squad does have the depth to cope with matches coming thick and fast. After Newcastle it'll be the international break and we'll have both Cesc and Adebayor back. Hopefully the competition for places will give Ade a challenge and heal his itchy feet since we're more than capable when the attitute of the whole team is right. We're not a team short on quality.
