Arsenal 0 Man City 0
Mancini brought their multi millionaire to emirates stadium and to play for a draw and one point. He got it since Arsenal could not c reate many chances.. Nasri has brokethrough Man City's defense once but was judged off-side in 1st half. Van Persie's free kick in 2nd half was close but not on target basically.
In the old days we still have Henry to score by his solo effort, yesterday we saw none while Fabregas , Arshavin were injured. Man United had C Ronaldo last season , Nani made the difference last night to keep their title chase still alive. We will see Chelsea whether can catch up tonight against Stokes city at home.
While Tottenham lost at Old Trafford so basically Arsenal's 3rd spot is almost secured, one extra point is all but sufficient to guarantee their 13th successive entry of group stage of CL next season . Being 12 years of RUN-IN of CL , and new regulation of both EPL and CL which will require max 25 players registration with at least 8 home-grown players in the squad. Some players must be d ropped in this summer , some new players will come while we need to count in 8 home-grown players in those 25 berths..It's interesting to see who's in and out . Wenger will decide who will be going out after world cup .
Have seen Bolten's game and seems Jack Wilshere playing quite lively and he should come back to Arsenal next season. In fact , Wenger sent over a team of reserve on loan this season and some are quite good british youngster like Lansbury , Jay Simpson who can play League Championship regularly . The main problem of their 1st team is lack of British ingradient .. We need more players like Tony Adams , Martin Keown , Ray Parlour to form the core of the team and this factor is essential to win EPL , when you review the no. of British players of Man United and Chelsea , they all have those important british players to form their core. It's time for Wenger to re-group his squad ..
