Another 3 points in the offering as we take on Everton in a home fixture that we have traditionally dominated. If the stats are anything to go by then Everton will be easy. But they have been playing rather well and if they beat their opponents today then they will got 4th in the table and thats a huge incentive for the merseysiders.
A lot of pre match talk has been about Cesc Fabregas. The gaffer has said that Cesc will get better and thats a rather pleasing though if you are an Arsenal fan. Cesc stays modest as ever.
"I know I will have Thierry [Henry] next to me for the next four years, I will have Alex Hleb, Kolo Toure and [William] Gallas with me in the next four or five years, so for me all I have to do and think is to learn from them because they are great players"

This guy is mature beyond his years and he seems to have his feet firmly planted on the ground. We also had Henry talking in the week about how they are finally beginning to feel at home at the new stadium. Wenger also ruled out bidding for Beckham. Considering how many people we are supposedly planning to buy i think that we will be able to field 3 Arsenal teams in the next season. Arsene also gave an update on Adebayor who will miss the Everton game but might feature midweek against CSKA Moscow. He goes on to say that Lauren will be out till January. I have a feeling that Lauren s Arsenal careeris close to getting over. With the emergence of Eboue, i wonder how many games the former Cameroon International will get. Diaby is a month away from getting to training. He realizes that he will face stiff competition when he returns. Good to see the lad getting back to full fitness..

Wenger showers lot of praise on his opponents for the weekend and says that its an important game for Arsenal. Apparently the gaffer considered signing AJ but then thought the better of it ...thankfully.

If we need to compete with Manu and Chelsea then we need to steamroll teams like Everton at home.
