sir alex gonna be heated about that one

I cant say I'm upset that RvP will be out this long. Hopefully it opens Wengers eyes and he realizes that RvP is not a reliable striker. He's gonna beforced to bring a striker in during the transfer window now. I'm not sure Wenger would've bought another striker if RvP was healthy and the team was in2nd place going into January.

Rooney's hattrick...

 

[carlos tevez]

Arsenal vs. Chelsea right now.

 

[thekryptonite]

Come on Arsenal, we need this win.

 

[Sinner]

Some good passing by Ars. Have Chelski even had a shot yet?

Lol... I can't listen to Jon Champion commentate without being reminded of PES...

 

[erascism]

Should've been a PK on the @rse.

 

[erascism]

Defenders admired that a bit much.

 

[carlos tevez]

Own goal by Varmelan.

2-0 Chelsea

Game is over and Chelsea have the title locked up.

Arsenal's attack is about as anemic as a vegetarian.

 

[Sinner]

2 goals... same spot.

 

[erascism]

Vermalaen, you're playing with the big dogs now.

 

[carlos tevez]

Almunia $@%%+% sucks. Dude's positioning is the worst ever. Why the he.ll did he come out of his net on the 2nd goal?

 

[brrraptors]

vermaelen on halftime suicide watch

defense maybe a dying art with those scores but that 9-1.. an entire team was dead. howre u gonna let someone score 9 times. 9!

so bad wigan players offered a refund

 

[brrraptors]

how did arshavin miss that! dude took too much time setting up while the keeper was outta the net.

 

[Sinner]

Damn

 

[oskar kokoshka]

lovely free kick

 

[sirius lee handsome]

Do you guys think Drogba doesn't get enough credit as one of the world's top g goalscorers when he isn't mentioned along with players like Ibra,Messi, CR9, etc...?

 

[babam11218719]

11 pts back. Yeah I think Arsenal is out of it now. Time to play out the season hopefully get 3rd and try for the FA or the Champions League. Arsenal is notconsistent enough to win the league anytime soon.

the players you compared him to have a rating of 99 for "skill" and "ball control"...
Drogba's all about the physical game - he chases loose balls,harasses defenders and get stuck in 50-50 challenges...
frankly,he could score 40 goals this season but everyone still won't consider him as one of the world's best...

As KU said, Drogba lacks the finesse to be ranked up there with Ibra, Messi, Ronnie, Torres.

He's still a great goalscorer. As a striker, your #1 responsibility is to score goals and he does a very good job of doing so.

He also doesn't get credit because he's not from a well-recognized footballing country and due to his antics which are downright embarrassing at times.

If I'm building a team solely composed of Premiership players and I need a striker, I'd take Drogba over Rooney any day of the week.
