After their recent resut at BMO field manager Arsen Wegner must be a bit more pleased than he was when he left the pitch last tuesday as his team was able to jump back into the mix of things with a astonishing 6-4 victory over Toronto FC. Even though the offensive was brilliant, led by Miroslav Klove, Kaka and Tm Cahill, the defence cerainly could use a bit more training. the effort show on the defensive side was not quite up to the standards that would be expected at this level of professional football. They may even want to consider hireing a new defensive coach to give them a new style that might give them a better chance of success.
Yet another exceptional performance from Arsene Wenger's boys as they trance Manchester City with a whooping 5-3 scoreline. When asked how he feels his offensive aspect is coming along after gameweek 1's 1-0 lose to Barcelona and only taking a total of 3 shots, 2 of those hitting the target, he said, "I feel these young men are finally figuring out how to attack. All it toke was brilliant offensive leadership from Miroslav, Tim, and Kaka. If they can learn defense soon they will begin to see scorelines of 4 or 5 to nothing. They have already started to inprove. I'm very proud."

POST GAME REPORT
Barcelona v.s Arsenal
An obviously insuperior Arsenal squad drop an ugly one to Barcelona in Spain. They weren't able to create anything, the creativity from the strikers was embarassing, the defense effort was brutal except for a decent performance from their keeper, Jose Reina, and the mentallity held in the middle of the park was horrible. If Arsenal hopes to even score this season they will need a big talk and a change of attitude, as well as a whole lot more training sessions.
Toronto FC v.s Arsenal
Unbelievable effort by the offensive side of Arsenal, as they popped in six goals with Mirosalav Klose contributing on all six in one way or another, four goals and two assists. it was obvious that Arsen Wegner put the petal to the metal during training in order to achieve the result offensivly, however with the defensive effort as poor as it was they now know whats on the agenda for next weeks training. with a few more tweaks to work out this team has turned into a surprise to all supporters and viewers worldwide.
Manchester City v.s Arsenal
Arsneal continue their great offensive abilities, but with only a day or two in between matches i don't know that they had to time to work on their defensive aspect. Arsene Wenger knows that's going to take some serious practice to get it good enough to stop the offensive abilities of teams like AC Milan and Toronto FC. Said Wenger after today's match, "Our boys are finally seeing how to attack, all they need now is the defending."
