    I did have a feeling before the game that Taiwoo, Tarabat and Diakeete would have good games against Arsene Wenger.

    Tarabat couldn't get that Arsenal shirt on quicker after the game!
    First game: Arsenal vs Queen's Park Rangers at Highbury, Saturday 17th November 1984.

    I know. But at least he shook hands with all of his team mates and clapped all three of our stands to be fair to him.

      Taarbs desperately wanted show Wenger how good he is,best way to get the best out of him is tell him Wenger is in the crowd watching him.

        Agreed, they were superb, as was everybody else.

        Diakete impresses me more each game, he is so quick over the first 5 yards and can beat his man with ease, just needs to release it earlier sometimes.

        Like everyone else I thought Taiwo thought was terrible in his first few games with us but Arsenal was a massive improvement, he needs to keep that level up for the next 7 games.

        As for Taarabt, finally got his goal, was involved throughout and showed real passion and fight, a brilliant performance (also the first player to give a big pre match speech and then actually deliver on the Saturday!!!!!!)

            Honestly I didn't, but fair play for them for proving me wrong. They must produce this performance week in week out otherwise one game means nothing.

              You may be right, but it's not as if this was the only chance Arsene would be aware of our players. I'm fairly sure if Prem managers may just watch footage from other Prem games, during the season.

                  not a dig pal - but really does depend what league we're in...
                  I don't think he'd suit the Championship...

                        I did see glimpses of quality from Taiwo against Liverpool.
                        Diakite as well.
                        Hence it did not came as a surprise to me that both played well against Arsenal.
                        I wonder if any of the two speak english actually?
                        If they donīt it couldnīt be easy for them to gel with the rest of the team.
                        Well done to them both.

                          It's pretty obvious he wants to play for them, but if he could just hide his enthusiasm a little in public it would be more respectful to us
