Evening all.
I firstly must apologise for not having written for a while, the reason is simple - there hasn't been anything worth writing about! It's painful when Arsenal are on a break, we just have to make do with the Arsenal blogs that write for the sake of writing even when there is nothing to say.
Wednesday night is a big night, Porto will be a tough game and one I would be happy if we came away with a score draw. We have lost at Porto before but these were games when we were already through in our group so I wouldn't read too much into it. It looks like Arshavin and Song will miss out, quite how much we will miss them remains to be seen but unfortunately no Song means the return of the ultimate water carrier Denilson. It seems that Wenger has realised that Denilson should not be part of a full strength midfield but needs must and as long as the Brazilian at least puts in the effort then he might be alright.
The main reason for this post is regarding the number one jersey at the club. As regular readers will know, I think Manuel Almunia is the worst goalkeeper I have ever seen at Arsenal and I would pick every other Premier League goalkeeper ahead of him. I believe there is a reason why Wenger has not made a big money signing in goal and his name is Wojciech Szczesny. The young Polish goalkeeper is at Brentford where he is earning rave reviews. I've seen him play a couple of times and he really is the real thing. Brentford fans say that he's the best goalkeeper they've seen at the club in over 30 years and even Wenger said that he has been identified as someone going to the very top. Why would Wenger sign a long term goalkeeper when he has someone ready to take the number one spot next season? Even if the Sorenson reports were true, that was only going to be a very short term solution.
Just watch this video and you'll see what I mean.
I'm convinced he is going to have a great future at our club, we just have to see out the rest of the season with that clown in goal...
