Ramsey had the whole field and he passes to the spot with the only defender. Absolutely shocking.
With both Song, Rosicky and Wilshere back soon I see it very hard for Ramsey to get a game. He looked very good in pre-season but has been very very poor when we get to the real important matches.
In fairness, it was using his left foot... But the counter argument to that is, he was under no pressure, he could have switched to his right.With both Song, Rosicky and Wilshere back soon I see it very hard for Ramsey to get a game.

Anyway, in wasn't the most convincing of wins like most of you said. Nobody played really well, but nobody played really badly as well apart from a few shockers by Ramsey and Walcott.
I was impressed with Arteta and there are similar qualities as Cesc, try as you may not to compare them. I reckon his pass completion was close to 100% until about the 60th minute mark when Swansea suddenly burst back into life.
Benayoun looks to be an energetic and high work rate player and would be a welcome change to the more languid Arshavin IMHO. Most of my Liverpool and Chelsea friends says he's a quality player and I look forward to seeing him more this season.
Now onto Mertesacker... For a guy who's 6'6", you'd expect him to at least try to head clear the corner that Szcz flapped at (he had not choice but to do so). Having said that, he did put in a great challenge in our area in the first half and his long legs did come in handy when Swansea broke at speed at one point. Jury's still out on this one, but I would think he'd be a good foil for Vermaelen's aggressive approach.
Koscielny was my MOTM though. Probably SZCZ deserved it too, but too many times adi he got MOTM............. Which says a lot about the other 10 players!
