Look how Chelsea turned out to have an international quality third choice goalkeeper, Hilario. Both Man U and Chelsea have lots of depth. Newcastle, who are reported to be down to 14 available players (admittedly through past waste of money on their team squad), must be very envious.\n\nI don't know the names of the people not getting into the first teams, but I am sure that you will find details on the Man U and Chelsea websites.

Theo Walcott - he's only 17!! \n\nHe's got a lot of pressure on him to perform with all they money paid for him and so many eyes on him during the Cup.

Been watching Arsenal since 1972, been to over 400 games, so I've seen a few players. The best? Attitude, commitment and skill have always done it for me so it's Steve Williams, Paul Davis, David Rocastle, Anders Limpar, Ian Wright, Emmanuel Petit, Patrick Vieira, Tony Adams, Steve Bould, Nigel Winterburn, Stewart Robson, Charlie George, Kenny Sansom, Pat Rice, Sammy Nelson, Liam Brady, Lee Dixon, David Seaman, Thierry Henry, Robert Pires, Martin Keown, Peter Storey, Peter Simpson, Michael Thomas, Graham Rix, David O'Leary, Jimmy Rimmer, Willie Young, Alan Ball, George Armstrong, Frank McLintock, Charlie Nicholas, Dennis Bergkamp, Nelson Vivas, Remi Garde, Paul Merson, Brian Marwood, Silvinho, Gilles Grimandi, Alan Smith, Jens Lehmann, Kolo Toure, I could go on forever, so there's some names to discuss!

Okay according to the answers given by people u can see tat they have mentioned about Man U have many great players and Arsenal having just one great player HENRY, but my friend this one great player is the greatest among all the Man U players.\nAlso if any one says Arsenal is far behind Man U in EPL , but wat about those days when Arsenal was the one and Man U was behind them or a matter of fact any team was behind them.\n\nONE THING MORE MY FRIEND ARSENAL DOESN'T HAVE VERY GOOD PLAYERS OTHER THEN *HENRY* BUT ITS THE BEST KIND OF FOOTBALL THEY PLAY WHICH MAKES THEM THE BEST.

I disagree with what Gagga_gary said about Walcott being the "next wayne rooney" when I havent seen the Current Wayne Rooney in top form as of late.I do Believe walcott has skills,no doubt about that or arsene wenger wouldve not bought him.But its the world stage, He hasnt played one regular game in the senior lineup yet.I was surprised that he didnt pick darren Bent, who is in good form this season. I see walcott in the 2010 world cup,not this one.But with football,you never know what might happen.He might shock everybody in the world cup.........or Maybe Not.

Why on earth would you want a personality if you do not know how to describe it yourself.  He appears to be a gentleman, well spoken and a great football.  He will \nre-sign for Arsenal in the nest three weeks.........

Good point\n\nIts a transitional period for Arsenal and it is difficult for several reasons\n\n1) New stadium - It will take time to build the psychological 'Home' feel for players and fans\n2) Wenger is nurturing his 3rd Phase (his thrid rebuilding of a squad) and the players are you. \n\nThe problem may also be that the team lacks solid British players and despite the beauty of their football some rigidity is needed (ie Bolton)\n\nIn the end Arsenal have a brilliant young squad that is going to imporve more than Man Utd and Chelsea. So the futures bright.

Personally, I believe Lehman is a lot better than Kahn. He's one of the main reasons Arsenal had a full unbeated season (03-04)! No other team in the history of Football has bean able to do that! A lot of it was becaues of Lehman's awesome goal-keeping!\n\nUnfortunately, I think Kahn would probably be selected, as he has a larger 'presence' in the National team. Also, he led Germany far in the last few tournaments...\n\nLet's hope Jens Lehman is finally selected!

Thierry Henry! Football Writers Award for Player of the Year for the third time! First person ever to win 3 of those!\n\nHe's the chosen one!

I just noticed that too.... Weird.\n\nHolland isn't exactly too far for a footballer especially if you live in London perhaps he spends most of his time at home and commutes LOL imagine that.\n\n2 goals in the last ten minutes, bleh its the result that counts!!!

I agree with Taiki. But I have one question for Taiki.\nHow can arsenal be near sighted because they let Viera go as he is 30+. They are bringing in younger players so as to make the future secure. Arsenal is the one who is thinking about the future.

Tough question. I suppose the obvious answer is that Sven thinks he's one of the best strikers in England. A better question might be why is Theo Walcott playing for England. In any case, I would have liked to see Darren Bent selected in the squad, he was the highest scoring Englishman in the Premiership this season, surely worth a call up.

Portugal's Cristiano Ronaldo and Argentina's Lionel Messi will be definitely the most electrifying players on the pitch. But to give you some players that people won't tell you are Germany's Robert Huth, Bastian Schweinsteiger, and Lukas Podolski(all under 22). Cesc Fabregas is incredible at Arsenal, so he will most likely do good aswell.And last two,Paraguay's Nelson Valdez(forward)is one of the best talents in South America and might carry Paraguay past the group stage in head of Sweden and Trinidad&Tobago.Lastly\nManchester Utd. and Serbia&Montenegro's promising young defender, Nemanja Vidic.

Everyone go's on and on about how brilliant Keane is yet i have still to see him play his best at celtic, i think everyone needs to remember football is a TEAM game and they wont get to the last 16 baised on how keane or petrov play there will be another 9 men on the park. also they gotta remember they straight into the group stages so they wont need to play as many games as rangers to get there IF they do!
