Would have preferred Meireles over Mikel.

Agreed. Arsenal doesn't have strong players. Meireles' strength would have been enough. Plus, the latter man is way more pacy than Mikel, and, imo, it is a quality more important to stop Arsenal's attacks.

Why?? Arsenal's pace would just outdo us in strength if we don't have Mikel there. Meireles just seems far too lightweight!

I don't know, i would rather Meireles play higher up the pitch. He's not that good at tackling, and he seems to let people run past him too easy. I think Mikel is the safe option.

madmax did you n

Did you not learn anything from the man u game ? we were wayyyy to open, obi gives us an extra man defensively.

Don't get me wrong - I like Mikel as a player, I just don't think he has a place in the team if we're playing Ramires as well. Meireles adds a little bit extra in terms of mobility, movement and quickness of passing. Why is everyone so impressed with Romeu? One big reason is that our passing from midfield is much quicker with him at the base and it improves our pace of play, something that is crucial if we're to get the best out of Torres. Meireles helps out in a similar way.
