Arsenal Transfer Times: Vincent Enyeama's Heroic Performance Against Argentina

Argentina faced Nigeria in one of the many anticipated group stage games of the 2010 FIFA World Cup.

All eyes were on the talent of the attacking players that Argentina had at their disposal, Lionel Messi, Gonzalo Higuain, Carlos Tevez, and Diego Milito.

The game started quick for Argentina and they had a host of chances, forcing the Nigerians to play with their hearts on their sleeves defensively. 

The goal was scored by Gabriel Heinze, but that was the only time the Nigerian shot-stopper was beaten.

Nigeria faced 20 shots, seven on target and six where saved.

Enter the shot-stopper Vincent Enyeama.

It is no secret that Arsenal are in a goalkeeping crisis and the Hapoel Tel Aviv man, 27 years of age could definitely be considered after a stellar performance in South Africa today.

Enyeama has great positioning, reflexes, and has athleticism that gets him quickly of his line.

Enyeama today showed composure, denying Messi twice from close range; outside the box and from around the penalty area.

He also communicates with the defenders pretty well and could do with experienced defenders in the premier league that Arsenal sport.

Even though Arsene Wenger might not be interested in him, with Mark Schwarzer and Hugo LLoris on the card, Enyeama could be cheaper and maybe just be a bargain buy.

Enyeama should be a good fit for Arsenal, with displays like these, considering the fact that Messi hit four past Arsenal last season, he failed to get even one on the night.

In Wenger we trust.
