    The Daily ITK Discussion thread 13th August

    I'm breaking my silence this one time. 1) Rafa. Love the man. He's a true gent. He's a closet Arsenal fan. Not this Bayern only malarkey. He keeps it under wraps, but get enough beers in him and you will discover the truth. And he, like most of you, wants Sahin at one of his clubs...

    Tottenham Vs West Brom: Match Thread

    7 points in 8 days and you would think we just came through Christmas in the relegation zone rather than comfortably in 3rd with a game in hand. Misery is more addictive than Heroin.

    Tim Sherwood to take over from Harry as manager ?

    Yet the one that did do this, provided a platform for continuity that helped them. I don't think we should follow the people doing it the silly way, we should follow the ones that provide a good example.

    Team V Wigan (A)

    Gallas is reportedly not ready for another week. There is rumor that Adebayor might have picked up a knock.

    A New Striker in January

    Well whether or not we made such bids is up for debate. There is no definitive proof that we ever made such outlandish bids, other than the machinations of desperate supporters and reporters looking for sensational scoops. But if we did, it was at a time when we were in the CL and were trying...

    A New Striker in January

    You mean the Cisse that Freiburg wanted 15 million for last summer? That's not a missed opportunity as much as we couldn't afford it. Maybe in the winter, we can, now that we've recouped some cash. But at 26, with one proven year, it was a lot to ask last summer. It's why Schalke...

    A New Striker in January

    But Leandro doesn't solve OP's worries about an injury to Ade. The kid can't play with his back to goal. So while he might be a good addition, he doesn't really solve that potential problem.

    Are we better than arsenal? Man for man?

    You're right. The Welsh bloke, Ramsey had 81. Sorry about that Some of my #'s were a little high from memory Ramsey 68/81 Santos 60/68 Arteta 58/62 Song 48/59 Sagna 31/35 (and he got injured) Arshavin 23/30

    Are we better than arsenal? Man for man?

    It's surprising how many rate Arshavin. He's very lazy and rarely involved in the match. And while capable of the odd moment of brilliance, it has only once (4 goals against Liverpool) really offset his overall contribution and tactical headaches. Against Blackburn for instance, Wilshere...

    Today's Football Matches

    I just got around to watching Blackburn Arsenal. I was actually interested more in Blackburn, as I wrote an article last week about how they could save their system. Basically...1) old fullbacks - protect them. 2) Get a better CM pairing. Kean did everything he could to protect them today...

    Falque

    Side. He plays left to cut in on his preferred foot for the shot.

    Falque

    Messi doesn't play inverted. He may have at one time, but now he's a false 10. He plays from the center and has the liberty to drift wide to create and shoot.

    Sorry, just checked...Downing didn't switch against Bolton like he did in other games.

    Falque

    It's called an inverted winger and it has little to do with the player and all to do with the manager and the tactics he prefers. You invert them so they draw the defense away from touch and allow your fullbacks to run into the opened space. If you use a 4-4-2, most managers tend to want one...

    Falque

    We've seen him one time and we have a thread, already? Give him time. While there are conflicting stories of his status with us, I think there an option to buy. So give him time to adjust to a new locale, a new club, a new set-up, etc. Don't get down on him yet. After all, many of our best...
