The fact that Wilshere is seen as our 'worst' attacking midfielder is a positive thing yes?

Not really. Rosicky is quite one-dimensional.

Great at keeping the ball, going past players, quite good at tackling too but that's about it. Doesn't get goals, doesn't get assists.

People always call players 'one-dimensional' before rattling off several different positive aspects before saying 'and not much else'

I'd love to be in the dressing room with Rosicky listening to death metal while Wenger tries his best to headbang along

Describe the different dimensions to Michael Carrick's game other than pick up loose ball and pass it to the wings?

==========================================

Carrick has got an excellent range of passing, long and short. Brings a lot to the team defensively, very disciplined in the holding role. Can cross, and a leader in the middle. Not sure what more you'd want from a deep lying playmaker.

Pete, not surprised you think that, as you only rate 3ft tall attacking midfielders.

cant remmeber which player, but they said in an interview they each get a day to play their own music on the cd player before training in the dressing room. and everyone hates it when its rosickys turn
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I would probably only like his and Wenger's music choices

Everyone else's would be (generic pop song with 'rapper' doing verses and famous female vocalist doing chorii) or (Former X Factor contestant) or (labelled as amazing due to the laws of relativity and the fact that everyone else is TRASH)

(Please someone bite)

Wilshere > Carrick
Bearing in mind we established earlier on that Wilshere was our "worse" midfield on current form.

Wilshere > Carrick
===========================================

Not at the minute, not by a long way.

Rosicky has a great range of passing, possibly the best outside foot passer in the league. Good at crossing, very good (underrated) at recovery tackles (not something he would be expected to do), is a leader on the pitch, always gives maximum effort, has good pace, a very good if underused long shot, and actually has very good discipline too.

Dot,

Please tell me you're not calling Rosicky's shooting one of his strengths? It's like praising Walcott's goalkeeping skills or RVP's skill in resisting females.
