    He's awful, I've lost count of the amount of balls he's given away. His positioning is terrible too.

    He isn't (and never was) a first choice defender at Arsenal. Injuries allowed us to have an Arsenal defender at a discounted price. If Arsenal kept as many clean sheets as we expected he would be worth the money. He isn't, though.

    I had him for long enough and got rid last week. Glad I did.

    In fairness to Chambers I thought he was excellent when deployed at cb. He looks much more of a cb than a rb

    He remains an Arsenal defender at a discounted price, and Arsenal play Hull, Sunderland and Burnley next three, aalthough he misses the Hull game. They also only face one of last year's top 4 in the next 13 (plus United).

    The yellow cards have been annoying but at his price there's not much better value imo.

    Where's Swiper to argue his case!?

    I know Chadli is scoring goals but I reckon spurs would score a lot more goals with Eriksen at 10 and Lamela and Townsend on the wings, it's not gonna happen in the short term but I'd say it could be somewhere down the line.

    HT in most of the the internationals.

    Belguim lead Andorra 3-0. Chadli with third goal. Courtois starts no Hazard, both had been doubtful. Vertonghen got and assist. Kompany also plays.

    Meanwhile RVP and Blind start for Hollan who trail Kazakhstan 1-0!!

    Dzeko starts for Bosnia 0-0 with Wales including Chester, B Davies and N Taylor

    unreal swerve and dip. first glance surely looked a deflection, but it wasn't. Just pure class

    Pitch for the BRA-ARG game is very poor. Def risk of injury because of it. H/T 1-0 to Brazil, Tardelli

    He'll probably start now and be made to play the full 90. :P

    Given it's a friendly I'd say they'll be expected to give their big players a run out. Hopefully he gets a half, 60 at most, in a fairly low tempo game.

    Hodgson says welbeck turned his ankle slightly, and that's why he was subbed. He did say it wasn't serious though

    I really can't see why Spain started Costa against Luxembourg. It's ridiculous. Give the sub strikers a run.
