Last night Diaby reminded me of myself.
Whenever I try to be too smart, I completely screw up, but when I do the simple things, I'm unplayable.

I disagree about Arteta, infact I remember a few times last night saying man up! He was on the floor far too easy last night imo. Jenkinson still has a lot of work to do. At one point they were booting the ball all the time to that side, he just wasn't aware of who was around him.
Maybe that was down to tired legs . Anyway, Arteta rarely ever does anything infuriating. Its one thing I like about him. Add to that he always seems to be in the right positions. Its like we have two Artetas on the field!
Jenkinson still needs more experience I agree, but I'm pleased with how he's developping so far. He handled the situations where he was one on one with the opposition pretty well yesterday, imo. He also got an assist too.

Don't get me wrong, I love Arteta and think he has fitted in very well, I just know its not him to go down that easily. He has a lot more strength than that which is why I found it a bit frustrating.
With Jenkinson, he does well going forward and did good with the assist. One of his good qualities. I just think opposing teams find that side as a weak side and rightly so. It's not really his fault, I mean he was brought in as a back up and has ended up in the starting 11.

Worked hard? Pft, I've never seen him work hard. Graft isn't a part of his game
The double standards just piss me off, like I said in the other thread, if it was Ramsey he would be getting crucified from all quarters for that performance. But the next half decent game Diaby has, he's our saviour again.
