Arsenals midfield trio of Aliaksandre Hleb, Tomas Rosicky and Cesc
Fabregas are firing on all cylinders this season, and a bet is the
driving force behind the glut of goals.
In the days of the Invincibles Robert Pires, Freddie Ljungberg and
Patirck Viera would chip in with 20-30 goals a season, and now it
seems the new breed of midfield talent are ready to do the
same.
Rosicky admits that the lads have had a wager on who will score the
most, and the bet seems to be helping, Fabregas bagging four, Hleb
three and Rosicky chipping in with one so far this season.
We have talked about scoring goals in midfield me, Cesc and Alex
Hleb, the Czech international told Arsenal.com. We talked about
preparing a bet between us.
I hope I can win it. It includes all competitions Premier
League, Champions League and FA Cup. When you look at those
competitions last year I would have been the winner.
It will be nice to win again but the most important thing is that
we win the games. It doesnt really matter who scores.
