Santi Classzorla!
No, its Mikel Arteta
I’m reading Artetas statistics and it’s like goddamn de javu. Week in, week out he’s just top class. No slip in performance whatsoever, what is wrong with this guy?. ♥ Arteta ♥
Up the arse! Great comeback win to keep morale high during the interlull and some mighty fine finishing for all the goals.
Arteta is a statistical phenom
He’s everything that Denilson should have been.
Don’t hate me for that comparison.
True but Denilson was an attacking midfielder that we converted to DM. So comparing Denilson to Arteta is unfair.
Uhhhhh?? So was arteta. Denison just sucked.
Now just imagine what Denilson could have been if he had someone as majestic as Arteta to learn from. If he was given the last 20 mins of games to come on, learn and build confidence the same way Ramsey has been doing. The massive competition for midfield space would also have spurred him on but I guess we’ll never know…
6.022×10^23-# of times I’ve watched this Giroud gif
http://twitpic.com/b1nt0f
Avagodro’s number. Nice.
How many electrons are in the valence shell of Cazorla’s left foot? Must be some heretofore unknown element it’s so fucking reactive. Cazorlonium.
Avagadro number???
NERDS!!!
Actually, it’s Avogadro’s number, aka the Avogadro constant. But I know what you mean…
And yes, some Gooners are nerds too — we actually know about things.
By nerds: Psychologist – A man who watches everyone else when a beautiful girl enters the room.
Yes some gooners knows many things unlike spuds, uneducated.
you can CUM inside baby !!
95-The amount of bitches Giroud’s gonna score with by the end of the night
5 is Theo Walcott
6 is Theo Walcott

2 am is the time I am writing down this senseless comment still drunk and merry after tonight
I really wish that a modern footballer like Theo had the humility to be a supersub like Perry Groves. He could be a legend.
Sadly not in today’s world, plus the pressure to get into the national team. Or, he could be a super sub for both club and country!! And create his own legacy!
iniesta did it, though he made the step up to a regular…reminds of the comment santi made about no big egos in the spanish team.
Are we criticising players for wanting to play a lot and score lots of goals now?
Great work 7am, much appreciated as always. Theo’s and Arteta’s stats are fucking incredible, I really mean that.
After the win I had quickly forgotten how dirty their players were and how much of a cunt Phil Dowd is. Cheers for reminding me. The cunts.
He’s a fine ref, every game I’ve ever seen him referee he does well, except Arsenal. He fucking hates Arsenal.
It’s high time he is banned from refereeing Arsenal matches.
one wonders if the refs try hard to please their boss against The Arsenal.
Mike fucking riley…. The cunt who single handedly ended our unbeaten run back then.
Mike van nistelriley.
Phil dowd looks like fat sam’s brother.
Need a ref like Viktor Kassai in premier league.
I love that Infographic of Arteta ,He’s really awesome , we should have bought long time ago
Thanks. I’m constantly thinking of ways to improve the column. If you have suggestions, I’ll listen.
Thanks 7am. I think the numbers column is great because numbers do speak volumes. But I think it’d be great to have a little analysis behind. In the sense that today you gave us very good stats on aerial duels, because they’re so important against Route 1 WHAM, but I wonder if Arsenal is coping well against them compared to other teams that WH has played against. I thought Carroll was a real threat but fortunately he was their only one.
Thanks again for the work you’re doing!
The answer is always more Arteta.
I endorse proper over the top NFL-style player profile/stat packages.
I particularly approve of the finishing move.
Info graphics like this guys:

Involving the pitch, and arsenal colours. I’m willing to help 🙂

@7am
Great stats, as always.
@Andrew (and 7am)
That’s some proper infographics. Could you give us a sample of what an arsenal version would look like?
And the mirror says this on top of the win: http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/theo-walcott-ready-to-sign-three-year-1364655
The mirror, though, so take it with a jar full of salt.
You need salt to make bread.
It might be true but they kinda ruined the believability by adding that comment about Falcao at the end…really?? Falcaooo??!!
The unbelievable part is the bit about a 35 million windfall.
Carroll’s face in that picture is priceless. What a fucking bitch. Arteta is just a maestro, great stats once again. And how did Cazorla’s shot go to the right? It looks like he is shooting to the left side of the goal, but the ball travels beautifully across goal, and completely bewildered jaasskiliininaneenaaniinniiien. Giroud will do great things at Arsenal, his accuracy has been sub par, but his presence and movement up front do just enough to make me forget what a gorgeous specimen of a human he is. Seriously, those eyes make me weak in the knees. I also… Read more »
Off topic but:: hey bloggs, how come you can’t view any of the pictures on the mobile site? I read this site nearly exclusively on me iPhone. I wanna see the pics. 2- the contact form on the mobile site doesn’t work either, that’s why I posted this here instead of a simple email. 3-bOILK!!
You can, if you switch to the regular mobile theme i think.
I’ve got the free app, which seems to work absolutely fine on a Samsung – pictures always load for me.
Think you might be following this team for the wrong reasons. be careful with those soup ladles during the internationals.
Arteta to win Ballon d’Or but still not feature for Spain!
Pretty amazing that Spain fails to field the best passer in all of Europe.
Well, he’s been the best passer in Europe for all of two months, and Spain has a won three major tournaments on the trot. So. . .
Although on current form, I would select Arteta over Xabi Alonso for that team.
You might not be a catholic but just a Cazorlic
Did anyone else notice in the replay how the ball had zero spin on it after santi struck it for his goal?
Do you guys want to see the most sexy .gif of Giroud ever?! I honestly stared at is for bloody ages. Dare I say it even turned me on.
http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-S6tvcF2WmBo/T_Ho5IGwX0I/AAAAAAABahI/hfxDNDYpr0c/s1600/GIROUD3.gif
Oh Olivier how I love thee… Forget gangnam style, all about ol ol ol Olivierrrr Giroud style!
You sound like a fag.
Homophobia is gay.
and so what if he is (maybe she is a girl!!! yes girl follow and like football too) ,you are just an ass
Yes and sometimes the bread can taste like shit, i believe the mirror story is this particular bread.
Shouldn’t byline of the column be 9:30amkickoff this time?
That Arteta stats is ridiculous. Just illustrates how brilliant of a DM he has been. I don’t know about you guys but I would prefer Arteta now get called up to the Spanish Side for selfish reasons.
Just curious, wonder how high the passing percentages Arsenal midfield has?
*not get called up. Typo
[…] Report – By the numbers – […]
If Dowd did so bad in United game, his next match would be AFC Wimbledon v Cheltenham Town…
[…] 来源 ：[Arseblog News] […]
[…] what’s to say but fookin brilliant on both ends of the pitch. I read somewhere that you won something like 17 Aerial Duels ? Whatever those are. Irregardless, you were magnificent, so good in fact that they simply stopped […]
I just looked up some numbers of my own.
2 – league goals scored by Walcott
91.5 – minutes played per goal by Walcott
3 – league goals scored by Gervinho
159 – minutes played per goal by Gervinho
The sample size is still too small to be drawing conclusions. Direct comparison is also problematic. For example, most of Theo’s appearances have come as a substitute against tired legs late in matches, whereas Gervinho has usually started. I will still be monitoring these numbers as the season progresses.
