People will slag me off for saying this but I think Rooney is shit. He has no pace or dribbling. He moans at players and ref's and blatantly dives in the box every opportunity he gets. He spends all game getting the ball on the half way line, he's more like a midfielder.

Yes he can pass the ball well and has great vision as to where team mates are, but you get Shrek the ball outside the box and all he does is run from the left to the right trying to have a shot. It's so predictable.

Edit:- Whether we sell Berbatov or not, he was our best striker last season and every time he gets a chance this season, he does really well.

Piers Morgan is the worst football supporter ever. He is full of criticism when Arsenal play badly without offering any real solutions, completely over the top when they win, mocking players on twitter when he has zero real football experience. Complete hypocrite and an utter, utter cunt.

I wonder if Wenger thinks this new RB will do any better with absolutely no protection from his team mates?

who is better? :d

I thought Berbatov and Hernandez were better last season, however they've not really played this season. I cannot see why Rooney is always first choice striker.
2010-2011
Berbatov played 42, scored 22.
Hernandez played 45, scored 20.
Rooney played 46, scored 17.

For 2011-2012 Rooney and Welbeck have played alot of games (more so Rooney) so Berbatov and Hernandez have not played as many. I don't really count 15 minutes as a sub etc. Not sure where I could find stats showing full games and substitute appearances.

Feels like Arsenal are going to get a goal. Wondering if Giggs will be coming off soon for a more mobile midfielder to chase Arsenal down

Big talent who does not want to leave at a club that do not want to sell only the right money will force a transfer.
I don't even rate Bale that high tbh, he was good for a few games in a row last season but he hasn't really shone since then for me...

Well done Wellbeck you should make a lot of your fellow pros ashamed. Same that if you do not win he will get shit for it.

Great run and finish by Van Persie. Not sure if Lindergaard should have got that.
