Arsenal vs West Brom. 16-08-08

The game between West Brom. and Arsenal has ended in a 1-0 as Arsenal clinched their 1st win of the season with Samir Nasri's goal.



Samir Nasir scores a beautifully "legcrafted" goal from Denilson's ball that started from a fine pass by Clichy on the left.
Denilson ran into the penalty box and cut the ball to the unmarked Frenchman Nasri to finish the goal with a low drive.





On their performance...



~Samir Nasri~
Samir Nasri play like how he was suppose to play which is going forward.
In that game, we can see how Samir loves to go forward and attack, one can say his a selfish player as most of the time he shoot from a distant when he got the ball under his feet.
But what impress me the most is his workload, he got the shadow of Flamini when i saw him tackling and closed down the opposition players frequently.
Now, there's a good bargain by Arsene ^^





~Johan Djourou~
Surprise package i would say after him missing much of the actions in the previous season. Johan Djourou was starting 11 that substitute Kolo Toure as a center back. He performed really well with his tight marking and shot blocking. His hustle on the ground works brilliantly as he succeed in closing down the opposition player at the back 4 line.





~Gael Clichy~
He did a great job again today like how he always does, good technique, great tackling, wonderful recover after losing the ball, and above all, his running still as sharp as ever. Giving Arsenal an extra offensive option.






~Bacary Sagna~
"Mr. Consistent" is a name i gave him after his consistent performance previous season. But in this game, he performed somewhat 'okay' only. He better buckled up with his running and offensive play.




~Manuel Almunia~
Solid performance, he have couple of good 'half saves' in his hands as he got a touch in every shot on target towards his goal post. Clean sheet, that's what i want to see.





~Robin Van Persie~
Surprisingly, he was rested -.-" Wasted my $$$$$ to buy him in Fantasy Football game. He came on as substitute in the 2nd half and did a fine job. It could be better though. Not enough magic from him aside from a shot inside the penalty box that curled away from goal.





~Theo Walcott~
Disappointment, have the least to contribute throughout the game. Not much running as he was muscle down most of the time, shot on target but miss, summary, not much contribution.


~Eboue & Adebayor~
Eboue
sucks, can't score(as always), can't keep ball on his feet, i don't understand why Arsene still keeps him in the squad.
Adebayor wasting a lot of chances as always, so, sucks.


~Others~
Denilson played a wonderful game, still can improve on his vision and physical aspect.
Gallas still likes to shout at people, I really doubt Wenger decision on giving him the captain armband -.-"



Will i recruit them in the next game? ( Yahoo Fantasy Football Game)
Samir Nasri-yes
Djourou-depends on Toure's fitness
Clichy-yes
Sagna-yes
Almunia-yes
Van Persie-hm... Depends on his fitness and if Fabragas will return.
Walcott-only when he WILL play as a substitute.(I have to see who's the starting 11st)
