Eduardo Loss Will Hurt Arsenal Big Time
A big blow for Arsenal. I remember when Thierry Henry left, everybody was thinking that Arsene Wenger will bring in a big name player. Instead, he brought in Eduardo in which nobody had heard of, and typical Wenger, Eduardo turn out to be a big hit.
Only in New Year however that Eduardo really came to life. He is a goal poacher, calm and has a great technique. His finishing is awesome. But now with Eduardo out of the season, Arsenal will only have Emmanuel Adebayor to look to.
After being knock out of the FA Cup by Man Utd, the Gunners drew against AC Milan and then Birmingham. Their next match will be against Aston Villa which I believe that they will win comfortably.
However, it’s Arsenal’s trip to the San Siro that proves the toughest of the lot. Honestly, I think with just one striker in Adebayor, AC Milan may just be too experience for a young side like Arsenal. Sorry, but i think Arsenal may just loose this one.
But, out of the FA Cup and the Champions League may prove to be a blessing in disguise for Arsenal. While Manchester United and Chelsea will play more games, Arsenal only need to focus on the Premiership, given that their only in form striker will stay out of injury, of course.
And the fans will pray hard that Adebayor will stay fit for the rest of the season, and if they loose him too, Arsenal can kiss their season goodbye.
