I think today's match sums up Arsenal's season. Isn't it plain for anyone to see their weaknesses? But what's frustrating is: Wenger's not buying players to fill up the big gaps Arsenal is having. Throughout the seasons(note: plural. that's how long we haven't touch something shiny), it is clear where Arsenal's weaknesses are. YET, there is little done to address the issues.
1. Goalkeeper: Fabianski??? (gimme a break!!!) Even Almunia, who is a decent shot-stopper, is not good enough. We NEED a SOLID international!!!! (Read: Van der Sar, Cech, Given, Reina)
2. Defence: Get one more solid defender who can be 1st team or a backup. Silvestre and Campbell is too slow for EPL. Remember that we don't have a Vieira to protect anymore!
3. Midfield: Get a solid DM. Song is improving but I don't see him in the class of Vieira, at least not yet. Other than that, we have lotsa midfielders who are all inconsistent barring Fab.
4. Forward: Besides RVP, the rest are underperforming. Bendtner misses too much and Eduardo has lost his form. Get a solid international will you?

Another miserable Arsenal fan.

Be encouraged. The LORD is God.
Sometimes in life, you can't help but feel dejected and discouraged as you look at seemingly dire circumstances. Perhaps you feel like Elijah(2 Kings 19), utterly discouraged and even depressed by what you see.
But God is good. He is always on time to show us the truth - i.e. He is always at work - and just at the right moment, He reveals His work and encouraged us by His mighty acts. God told Elijah, "Yet I reserve seven thousand in Israel-all whose knees have not bowed to Baal and all whose mouths have not kissed him."
Are there times when you feel an acute burden for God's people? And become discouraged by what you see? I have good news for you. God is not dead. He is the living God who has always been working in the lives of His people. Yes, some might be very cold, some might be only outwardly hot, but yet God has not left Himself without a people whose hearts are tender and who will seek His face.
The truth is:
I cannot do anything.
God can do all things.
Therefore I will stop lamenting,
come to Him in prayer
and meditate upon his truth.
"Know that the LORD is God.
It is he who made us, and we are his;
we are his people, the sheep of his pasture." (Ps 100:3)
Amen.
