Might try marking the guy taking the throws, he gets it back every time with nobody near him.
They're having far too much of the ball and our lads are slow reacting tonight. Come on....

Two very different styles on display at the Reebok - Arsenal are playing pretty passing patterns, Bolton are largely lumping it long. Neither has resulted in a goal so far.

There should have been goals and we should be losing. So no worries yet. C'mon Villa.
Not miners, its golfers at tee off.

Taken a few months for him to adjust (and I have to admit I wasn't 100% sold on him until last week) but signing N'Gog really does seem to be a master stroke. Plays the lone striker very, very well. Holds the ball up brilliantly and brings others into play nicely. Hasn't had much service tonight (as to be expected really) but has done well for himself and can really see him becoming a cult star if he can grab himself a few more goals this season.

and the prospect of him playing off Chung Yong Lee...wow...

Link 3 working much better.Wheater is doing well but Knight seems to be half asleep.Any ball played in the space behind him is a danger.Clearly needs those players he's marking to stand still and a little closer to him.
I've been impressed by NGog too. He's never going to score many but seems very well suited to leading the line alone

We need to focus first 20 mins, rattle the gooners, get them worked up and hit 'em hard.

Should have got a couple in the first half, but I like him too.

Loving Brownie on the radio. Why does Lawro dislike Bolton so much? Is he still angry about the tash?
The players you fail to sign never lose you any money.

He's a fecking arse, isn't he.

I've enjoyed Brownie and Harper so far, especially Brownie's chuckling at Blackburn's travails.

Given the way he does it, a simple knock in to wheat will do find. No need to try and bend it.
