To be fair to Ros, he hasn't been used at all this season except for a few minutes against Villa - bound to be rusty.
Podolski is just not good enough anymore.
Campbell just isn't up to the level required for mine - he only has one trick; cutting in from the right. They figured him out after about 15 minutes. Have never understood any hype around him.
I think Wenger's subs (or lack thereof) didn't help either - Ros, Campbell and Podolski shouldve been off at the 60 min mark.
Shame about Podolski, his output in his first season was great and then Wenger forgot all about him.
I had never seen Campbell except for the World Cup and the Emirates cup game,so I was hyping him based off that.
It's disappointing to go out but for our season it was for the best. If we got that dm and cb in then I would want us to go for it but as it stood we don't have a large enough squad for 3 competitions with how we collect injuries. I wanted us to win and am a bit bummed to be out but less games is a good thing right now unfortunately.
I know you are right, but I always hope we will go far in everything and the confidence carries over into the next game. At least this was a defeat against a good opponent and shouldn't destroy our, at times, fragile confidence.
He's right though. Enough with this Bonera nonsense, he's bad, slow, everybody last night was trying to avoid him, every pass went either to Zapata or De Sciglio (another player that got worse in the past year), out of 8 goals we conceded so far, 5 (FIVE) came from something dumb Bonera did.
I don't care if they're friends, at some point Pippo must realize the team comes first. Otherwise, just bring back the whole 2004-2005 team and be done with it. Rami bought himself just to play with Milan and he's left on the bench. Even Mexes would be a much better choice, which says a lot about Bonera.
Bonera has been pure shit for so long. I am amazed he has not been put down by now.
