Arsenal have waited for such a long period to put pen to paper and pay the playmaker "p"Arshavin (note the alliteration and rhyme) that it seems Man City might swoop in like the damn buzzards that they are and nab AA away from Arsene. As of this morning I am a bit irritable about for two reasons: 1) why would Arshavin even think about signing with them instead of Arsenal? 2) why do the Gunners continue to delay such necessary signings? Seriously. Granted, I would prefer to see them sign a solid defender or defensive mid, but they do also need a boost in attack with the depth of injuries (Fabregas, Rosicky, Walcott, Eduardo). Eduardo seems to be on the comeback trail (for real) as he netted a hattie in a reserves game. Yeah, big deal right? Watch the video from last February of his injury again and say that. Anyway, once he is back, I think the Gunners will have the opportunity to put a more potent attack on the field each and every game. One player could be tired or have a nagging injury. No matter. Van Persie comes off, Bendtner goes on. Ade comes off, Eduardo comes on. I still think a late charge for a "special" midfield defender is in the best interest of this club. That way Wenger would be forced to use Eboue as a backup RB instead of RM. Ugh.
Ok, on to the rankings. I'm sad to say that I am no longer in first place and Dobber is no longer in last place. In fact, after this last weekend's shenanigans we are all squared up.
ACE 5-8
DOBBER 5-8
EUGENE 5-8
I'm excited to get back into action next Tuesday and Wednesday. Let's have our predictions for the new round in by Monday. Hey ooooooooooohhh!!!!!!!!!!
