Analysis of Chamakh's movement vs Bolton

Following on from the post yesterday about Chamakh's first few games at Arsenal, here is a very short analysis of Chamakh's movement in the 4-1 win against Bolton and how it created space for others to exploit, particularly Arshavin.

Good movement, and often a fantastic first touch. In the first clip in this video and in another moment against Bolton, Chamakh was quick and strong enough to juke his defender to the ground. Definitely one of the pieces last years team was missing.

The second clip with the through ball to Arshavin is amazing. I can't believe how perfectly Chamakh is playing the role up front. He really is a bargain. Top player, and the more we see the better he gets.

Terrific analysis, terrific video! Chamakh was the steal of the transfer period, hands down. On a free and I'm sure he's at a reasonable salary.

The Gunners look more like the Chelskis and Man Utards of a couple of years ago in terms of depth and strength. Plenty of reinforcements at all positions. All willing to take or make a tackle and pushing forward regardless the opposition.

Go Gunners, Let This Be Our Year!

Excellent analysis. This video really shows Chamakh's intangible value. And your videos also show how tactically astute Wenger is. Brilliant!

It's not just Chamakh, people, we have clever movers all over the pitch. For the second clip, Rosicky moves into the space to provide the target outlet and Arshavin reads the space.

Great work - excellent videos. Noticed on twitter you got asked to do some videos for another site - don't do it! Get yourself established in your own right, not as an add-on for someone else. Your work is really good enough on its own to gather a following

Thanks.

I'm not too fussed really, I do this as a hobby and it's like I have anything to lose by doing a favour for someone else. Maybe I'll ask for a fee :p
