MikeO Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 Just, out of interest, had a scan back over the respective TT Man of the Match winning performances by the two of them over the last three years (which is as long as I've done it). MIkel has won it eleven times in games against Bolton (x2), Hull (x2), Blackburn (x2), Sunderland, Birmingham, Middlesbrough, Newcastle and Villa. Leon has seventeen against Hull (x2), Birmingham (x2), Chelsea (x2), Fulham (x2), Man City, Blackburn, Wolves, Villa, Reading, Sporting, Sunderland, Man United and West Brom. Mikel played less games than Ossie (74 to 98) and won a MOTM once every 6.7 games against Leon's one every 5.7. Obviously not scientific and just the views of the TT members but it's a bit strange that Mikel has never got it against top 4/5/6 opposition.

Romey 1878 Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 Arteta usually goes missing in the big games tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 He always did, why? Big question, be suprising to see if he does it for the Arse too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avinalaff Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 If you were to scan my old posts I've said that a few times about him going missing. Ossie has been getting better with more responsibility. It would be interesting to see if Ozzie could sit in the middle and orchestrate. If you look in the thread called 'remember this' that I put up an hour or so ago, there is a cracking goal from Ozzie in that. We were quite a team that year.

s-mackie Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 We won only 16.7% of games last season without Osman (20 starts, 6 sub. appearances), compared to 44.4% without Arteta (29 starts). For me, whilst Arteta's influence used to be far superior to Osman's, he has became less effective and the opposite can be said for Osman.

We just have to be grateful Wenger didn't know what we know and bought the wrong man . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 Arteta is the new Gravesen and Osman the new Carsley - statto statto statto!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s-mackie Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 Important defensively as well, had the 4th best 'mins per goal against' record last year behind Jags, Neville and......Bily!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duncanmckenzieismagic Posted September 1, 2011 Report Share Posted September 1, 2011 He always did, why? Big question, be suprising to see if he does it for the Arse too Simples When we played against a decent team they knew he was our only creative player and marked him accordingly Arsenal have far more creative players than us so it wont be so easy to single him out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
