Didn't have much tackling to do though.
    Strangely enough not a defined pre-requisite for the much fabled DM player.

    Positional awareness, tactical adherence, mobility, plugging gaps, accurate passing, covering others, shielding the central defenders etc.

    These are exactly the attributes that Alex Song Billong never*, ever displayed; just before fouling an opponent on the edge of our box.

    * he may have successfully hit one or two Hollywood passes to van Persie. I think they were probably accidents

    I always thought he was arguably the most over-rated of all our over-rated youth and prospective midfield talents – even Denilson.

    Now all I need is Monty to come along and remind me that Barcelona felt encouraged or impressed enough to pay big money for him.

    So Wenger had Bergkamp retire and Pires sold that year. AW brought in Song Billong, Gallas and ****ing Denilson.
    (he also brought in Rosicky and loaned in Baptista - I'll give you Rosicky)

    Early signs of the brain-rot imo
