The Brazilian-born Croatia player completed 90 minutes for Arsenal’s reserves against Stoke City on Wednesday, having a goal disallowed late on. “I am ready,” the 25-year-old Eduardo told Arsenal’s website (www.arsenal.com) on Thursday. “It has been a long time since I’ve played 90 minutes and now I feel better knowing that I can play a whole game. I feel much stronger than I have and I am very happy now.” Eduardo’s return to fitness will be a massive boost for manager Arsene Wenger as fifth-placed Arsenal try to make up ground in what is shaping up to be a tight title race. “I think I am ready for the first team but you would have to ask the boss,” Eduardo said. “I feel very well and I’m training hard every day. Of course I want to come back quick and strong. Now, every game for me is a big step.” He said the injury, a fractured fibula and open dislocated ankle that was so bad television replays of it were not shown, had had no lasting psychological effect. “In my head and everything I am ready,” he said. “I am happy with the 90 minutes I played on a very hard pitch with all the hard rain. But playing my first game for the first team, I am ready now and I am just waiting for my chance.” — Reuters The Star I watched the 2-2 draw in our reserves game against Stoke and to be honest he looks nowhere near ready for the first team just yet IMO

The Ultimate Driving Machine Senior Member 1,442 posts Joined: Nov 2006 From: Post-apocalyptic Earth	Finally someone else apart from me who actually recognizes Denilson's contributions. I absolutely love the bit "I don't think many people have gone down and deeply analysed his game." Pretty much sums up everything. Wenger - Why Denilson deserves more credit » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Arsène Wenger insists his faith in Denilson has been vindicated this season - even if the media don't agree. The departures of Mathieu Flamini, Gilberto and Lassana Diarra last year saw the Brazilian midfielder move up the central midfield pecking order at Emirates Stadium and he has started 29 of Arsenal's 34 fixtures in all competitions this season, a tally only keeper Manuel Almunia can match. Denilson has weighed in with three goals and a handful of assists but has yet to win over some sections of the Arsenal crowd and most sections of the press. That disappoints Wenger, who remains one of the 20-year-old's biggest fans. "I am surprised by two things - by how well he has done and how little credit he gets from the media," said Wenger at his pre-match press conference. "I don't think many people have gone down and deeply analysed his game. If you analyse it a little bit in a deeper way, that means the ground he covers, how much ball he wins, how quickly he passes the ball, where his balls go, you will be quite surprised. "But he is a player who doesn't attract too much limelight because he is discreet, doesn't talk and does his job. That's what I prefer. "He's a very hungry player and he is 20 years old, plays every game under a lot of pressure and I have never seen him in one training session be a little bit within himself. He always gives you 100 per cent." Arse.com

Btw its the same for the rest of the Big 4. No midweek live matches for the Big 4. Portsmouth vs Aston Villa has been picked ahead of West Brom vs Man Utd tomorrow morning our match has been ditched for Man City vs Newcastle the following day. Unbelievable. Guess we have to stream on Thursday morning Astro are tossers. End of rant.

The Ultimate Driving Machine Senior Member 1,442 posts Joined: Nov 2006 From: Post-apocalyptic Earth	I still believe we can get Arshavin but probably only on deadline day IMO. Anyway regarding Arshavin's price tag, wage demands etc, for those bashing Zenit and Arshavin, whether unreasonable or not their demands may be do bear in mind that: 1. Zenit has every right within themselves to put whatever price tag they think is appropriate on their best asset. What Arshavin is to Zenit is like what Cesc is to us and heck if Barca or Madrid were to come in for Cesc and he wants to leave we will be doing the same as Zenit now and so do every other team with one of their best if not their best player IMO. 2. Arshavin has every right as well to negotiate the amount of wages he thinks he should be getting. You have to take into account that he is 27 almost 28. This could very well probably be the last big contract or offer he is going to get in his career if he stays at Zenit, signs for us or for any other team. I can't personally blame him for rejecting us if we offer him less than he is getting at Zenit, if he has to accept a loss to play for us (if the 2.5m clause in his contract is true) or accept a better package from elsewhere.

The Ultimate Driving Machine Senior Member 1,442 posts Joined: Nov 2006 From: Post-apocalyptic Earth	QUOTE(ckkean @ Jan 27 2009, 11:54 PM) If he was right to demand a very-high amount contract then he have to become a proven player. And he is not younger anymore, he is already at the peak of his career, so it is risky to sign him for a huge transfer fee. He has to perform consistently and i hope its not like giving him another 2 or 3 season to perform at his best if he failed in his 1st year. However, its all only my personal opinion, and in Wenger, we trust. Wenger knows the best for the team. I did not say he was right to demand the amount he did. All I said was he is well within his rights to negotiate the amount of salary he thinks he should be getting. Huge difference there bro. Read my post again.

The Ultimate Driving Machine Senior Member 1,442 posts Joined: Nov 2006 From: Post-apocalyptic Earth	Simply not good enough. Overall it wasn't really a bad performance in the 1st half but not good enough to win today IMO. The lads will simply have to dig deeper in the 2nd otherwise a goalless draw is on the cards.

The Ultimate Driving Machine Senior Member 1,442 posts Joined: Nov 2006 From: Post-apocalyptic Earth	The comments on here are getting worse and worse by the minute. Wishing injury and was actually glad that a player (Diaby) got injured. Absolutely shocking IMO. I know you guys probably didn't mean it (well I hope so at least) but wishing injury upon a fellow human being no matter who is just plain wrong and sickening. That aside Shame we didn't score at least a goal. The only stand out performance for me last night was Denilson. An absolutely defensive masterclass from midfield that reminded me of Gilberto. Read the game really well, breaking up West Ham's play countless times whenever they tried to hit us on the break along with so many interceptions as well as applied good pressure on many occasions forcing players to turn back. Denilson's defensive side of the game is maturing through every game now and I can't wait till Sex Fabregas get back. I'm confident we will be seeing an all different Cesc/Denilson partnership compared to the one at the start of the season. Hopefully by then it would not be too late as far as our season goes.

The Ultimate Driving Machine Senior Member 1,442 posts Joined: Nov 2006 From: Post-apocalyptic Earth	I'm confident we will get Arshavin. Like I've predicted before that this transfer saga would go to the wire. We are no stranger to last minute transfer deals, the Lassana Diarra transfer and Cole/Gallas swap are testament to that.

The Ultimate Driving Machine Senior Member 1,442 posts Joined: Nov 2006 From: Post-apocalyptic Earth	I hope so too. Btw I'm glad Arsene did not sign a DM. I'm happy to give Denilson more of a chance to further prove himself. He has improved tremendously on his defensive side of the game and was excellent against West Ham as a DM. I'm actually looking forward to seeing more the same from him.

The Ultimate Driving Machine Senior Member 1,442 posts Joined: Nov 2006 From: Post-apocalyptic Earth	QUOTE(kazek @ Feb 2 2009, 04:31 PM) Not to sound pessimistic but Denilson is a poor player. Average at best. He only did well against Westham because Westham were horrible themselves. Not a half-decent chance to speak of. But remember Everton, Denilson was marking Baines before the Everton goal and as I remember Baines was in acres of space before sending in a pin point cross Cahill's way. We can't make judgement from a single game and has been shown overtime, Denilson isn't the answer. To be fair Denilson was played out of position against Everton. Once moved back to the center of midfield against West Ham, instant effect. I beg to differ. West Ham looked horrible and hardly had a sniff at our goal because Denilson was fantastic defensively with his interceptions and reading of the game. Yes we can't make judgments over a single game yet I still believe its too early to say Denilson is shit and will never improve. In fact IMO he has improved a lot and he is now a much better and accomplished player than he was at the start of the season and I am confident he will continue to improve. Not every player is a Fabregas or a Sagna that can come straight in and do the job. Even the likes of Pires and Henry needed quite a number of games and months of a sustained run of regular football before becoming the players we know they are. Just have to wonder what would've happened if Arsene was as impatient as some of you are and had branded Henry and Pires as "not the answer" and sold them off because of a handful of poor games at the beginning.

The Ultimate Driving Machine Senior Member 1,442 posts Joined: Nov 2006 From: Post-apocalyptic Earth	QUOTE(Daven81 @ Feb 3 2009, 01:59 AM) extended deadline for agreed deals but player unable to sign due to bad weather. since arshavin is in london this is not a valid case.. i feel disappointed. afterall this attempt is known since 2-3 weeks ago so why last minute? i am disappointed we did not show we are serious to get back on track. The FA received a fax from Arsenal for the extended deadline but I guess its irrelevant now as the deal is all but off. Zenit will be making a statement in about an hour.

The Ultimate Driving Machine Senior Member 1,442 posts Joined: Nov 2006 From: Post-apocalyptic Earth	Gooners watching Sky Sports Live in the UK said Arsenal has just announced that the deal is still on but Zenit is saying the deal is off and will make a statement at 7.00. God knows what is actually going on. Bah no choice have to wait then.

The Ultimate Driving Machine Senior Member 1,442 posts Joined: Nov 2006 From: Post-apocalyptic Earth	QUOTE(longpants @ Feb 3 2009, 02:28 AM) How sure are you sure that they requested an extension? I mean come on, we all know the deal itself is ridiculous. 15m for a euro 08 star? Hell, no way. We might be over-paying for a player. AW should be smart enough to be patient. Zenit is asking to much. They should really go look themselves properly in the mirror. It was confirmed earlier by Sky that the FA had received a fax from Arsenal regarding a deadline extension. 15m is just about right. Arshavin is class and if you have been following Zenit's games through last season's UEFA Cup and their UCL games this season on a regular basis then you would know. Too good a player for a team like Zenit.
