That Goal

4-5-1 or 4-3-3 ?
With all these terrible international games on, Arsenal news seems to trickle down to a minimum.
Hleb who had a great game this weekend is benefiting from the new away formation according to Arsene. I have to admit I’m quite confused as to what away formation we are playing now. Is it a 4-5-1 or a 4-3-3 that Cesc was talking about. A lot of my friends say that Van Persie played as a winger against Charlton, I just don't see how.
AW is also confident that we can now beat Chelsea to the title. As much as I would love to agree with the boss, I’m still quite sceptical. If we can stay consistent till the 20 match mark, then I think we have a really good chance. Our next two premiership games are against Watford and Reading and we need all six points.
That’s about it for this one. Till tomorrow

Player Ratings: Charlton Vs Arsenal
Player Ratings: Charlton Vs Arsenal
Jens: Had a decent game. Flapped at a couple of corners but made a brilliant save to deny Reid. 7
Hoyte: Does not look comfortable at the left back position. Why won’t Wenger play Flamini ? 6
Kolo: Once again a tower of strength at the back. Was troubled by Hasselbaink though. 6
Gallas: Definitely not 100% fitness wise. Looked off the pace. Hopefully he can shake it off in the next two weeks. 6
Eboue: Another impressive game at the back for the Ivorian. His cross to Van Persie made it 3 assists in 3 games. Good Stuff ! 7
Ljungberg: Another disappointing game for the Swede. Worked his socks off as usual with no real end product. 6
Cesc: Not his best game for the club but he looked lively. Should have scored off Henry’s lob. Needs a rest. 7
Gilberto: Did what he always does and kept it neat and tidy, shielding the back four. Looks to be developing an understanding with Cesc 7
Hleb: Great game, ran his socks off. Had a say in both goals. Has looked very impressive this season. Is starting to look like the player we bought from Stuttgart. 8
Henry: Had a quiet game by his standards. Always look dangerous with the ball, brilliant nutmeg to get Hleb the ball, who made the assist for RvP. 7
Van Persie: 2 goals, including an absolute peach. Missed an easy opportunity later in the second half. 8
Man of the Match: Hleb
