I love Distin's commitment and desire but he's not a patch on Koscielny, a rapidly improving CB who I'd have next to jags in a heart beat. I dont rate gibbs that much but other than that they are a top top side. Not only top of the league but playing well in europe as well. It's no slight on us to concede we're not as good a team as they are at the moment.
 
the fact that before this year and the start of this year was going on how avarage your center backs were and the way your still looking for a keown or Adams at center back says it all for me kocseilny better than jagielka good one mate good one brilliant that son great shout

They were interested in him too!

Short term memory only it would seem from 'new wenger'
 
Jagielka ain't a patch on either. Especially Koscielny. As for Barry. You serious? The Barry of old was actually a good player. But even then he wouldn't be starting for Arsenal now. Some seriously deluded people on here. I know you'll have to "support" your team and all but man.

Seriously.

Just seriously.

Once is a starter for his national team and the other has never had 1 cap. i think in france they rate Koscileny more

he's good, but prone to moments of madness, which distin can be accused of as well. Think distin has had better centre backs ahead of him in his time, whereas he's just too old to start being given caps now. i don't think there's too much between them myself.

distin does also not seem to fare too well in the biggest games which may also be a reason.
 
Man for man we're better than them. When I look down our team.

Hahahahahha Jesus

Thought I had logged in to RAWK then

Arsenal playing the best football in the country sit top of the league and we are better "Man for man"

I wouldn't want a single one of their players.

Not a single one.

I beg to differ too. Think we're playing better football than them.
 
He was one of the cb Arsenal tried to buy. It was the season where we had Vermaelen, Djourou and Koscileny and Wenger realised Djourou wasnt good enough and Vermaelen and Koscileny were too similar. So he looked for certain type of a CB and Jagielka was one of the targets. Eventually it was Mertesacker they went for. Similar players really.

I watched the game against Liverpool and you looked all over the place at the back and were lucky Allen missed that free goal to make it 3-1. I think Everton are very good going forward, but I just dont see you guys that good defensively

He also tried to get Barry.

Yet 'new wenger' seems to think because they play at Everton they wouldn't get in your side or aren't better than your players. Nonsense

Remember that was against dirty suarez. Whos playing to get away.

Plus set pieces isnt exactly something your better at defending.

Don't agree.

Derby games are not always a true reflection of a side.

We have 5 clean sheets in our last 6 games.

The other 18 teams in the division who have conceded more may as well throw in the towel now then I guess.
