Arsenal no longer think of opportunities to win the Premier League, the most important thing is to lift the Gunners from the downturn. Since the Premier League at the start, Robin Van Persie and friend's in the seven games they suffered four defeats and they are in position 15 standings.
This makes Arsene Wenger does not concentrate to catch the top teams, the Gunners have set a target to get full points agains Sunderland at the Emirates Stadium next week (16/10 at 14:30). Arsenal just two points off the relegation zone lines.
Wenger regret very much to Walcott and friend's, a lack of attention to detail in the game. That will ruin the game and profitable pattern opposing party, he requested that child care be disciplined in the game later.
Maybe keinganinan which is expected to be difficult for the coach is Wenger, because many players who suffered injuries such as Bacary Sagna (broken leg injury), Abou Diaby, Jack Wilshere, Conditions Laurent Koscielny and Thomas Vermaelen ankle injury, certainly absent. Then Johan Djourou (hamstring injury), sedngkan Tomas Rosicky (injured calf) is not certain to go to the field because it has not fully recovered.
Concentration will affect the players the Gunners, considering the lack of collateral. Because of the management said they would sell some players, especially in the front row who did not contribute quite good.
Given a Wenger who yesterday lost his best players, Fabregas and Nasri will add a new problem. Until now there is no substitute for a second attacker, to overcome the Professor will change the position of the players.
In addition Sunderland coach Steve Bruce is hoping to steal points from Arsenal, given the Black Cats are on a grid below the Gunners, both to avoid relegation.
