think that shouldn't be a factor in team selection at all. mikel is coming back from injury, best leave him out for this

Good to see opposition views again

not low crosses per say. anyway, here's a low quality pic of the cross he pulled vs Everton. in home matches we tend to put bodies in the box. No good header in there but there are enough bodies

that is when he gets it reasonably right. not going over everyone's heads like he has done plenty of times. to his credit he's mixed up his crosses this season. played the low cross sometimes but not nearly accurate enough given he takes so many crosses there are games when we don't have many committing forward but there are also games like for example, when we're putting the pressure on lower teams at home - there are enough bodies in the box.

Haha No. He has nothing on Bosingwa

it was an isolated good cross. his record was something like 4/68 successful in January "the target for crosses don't exist" is not a valid argument because as we saw late on vs Everton and vs West Ham, there were plenty of targets. maybe not great headers of the ball but definitely there are bodies in the box. it doesn't have to be a perfect cross to the back post or anything. see assist vs Newcastle when he delivered it on the floor for Hazard

Banner looks good

Ramires was by far the worst player vs City

boring games this week. apart from the chelsea one

could have been 4-5 really

Cech Ivanovic Cahill Terry Azpi Ramires Luiz Lampard Willian Hazard Eto'o

Arsenal have the points. Stoke have been better at the Etihad. hopefully they hold on

Ramires made a big difference in midfield edit - sorry. i thought you were saying matic did not have a good game. never mind now

Matic was good

yeah but then again Jose likes Ivanovic so much. Azpi could be benched

it would be great. Rock and Big Show in defence

Everton had a good counter attack chance from the left and this guy pressed the them back all the way (although everton did come straight back) Henrique - I hope Azpi's proven he's not Bosingwa 2.0 this season

this. many times the attackers are focussed on their 1v1 opponent than trying to link up.

Good runs from midfield. Should start vs Galatasaray

Lampard goal? Terry just said he didn't get a touch

Not a great performance. Shocking first half. but good fight from the team in the 2nd.

3 POINTS. 3 POINTS
