    This. Andrei is better technically, and theo is quicker, but neither is an upfront-type striker. At best Theo (and to a lesser extent, Arshavin, can play off a powerful striker).

    if u understand the 4 2 3 1 theo can play alone because cazorla as a playmaker can control things higher up where as in a 4 4 2 u need a targetman to control the ball from wingers crosses and longer passes

    It's probably already been mentioned, but I'll ask anyway. Why were the QPR and Fulham matches played, while ours was postponed? Did the strike not affect the more central/west part of the tube system? Honest question....and yes, I'm fairly familiar with the system and where QPR and Fulham are located.

    craven cottage only has a 30k capacity, and loftus road holds <19k.
    afaik fulham and qpr have no (major) parking restrictions on sundays or holidays (ie.boxing day). although i know the road outside qpr is closed a bit before and after games.
    neither have the restrictions arsenal have.

    I'm just glad they postponed the game.
