The Bendtner love in this morning is symptomatic of the reactionary journalism we’ve grown accustomed to, ever so ready to jump on a bandwagon, no regard for a little research, quick to come to sweeping conclusions after a single independent event. Last night’s win against Porto was a vindication of Wenger’s belief in his players and a victory for wengerball, but let’s not get ahead of ourselves.

Bendtner and Eboue, brought together by trials, tribulations, and redemption.

If it was an Irish play who did this I doubt there would be much if any recrimination heading his way.

There is no reason why we won’t continue scoring 3 goals a game without RVP, he was on a good run of form, but the team is red hot to. Bringing in Eduardo is just adding fresh wood to the furnace.

Winning against the Spurs has almost become routine, but the way they celebrated that draw last season they deserved a lesson in football and humility.

wins. Yesterday made it a decade of dominance over spurs in the premier league. Ten years of trying and failing to keep up with Arsenal. They have been reduced to a mere derby, no more can they claim to be rivals, rivals are supposed to be competitive, not also rans.
