Arsenal's Player Of The Month!!


Baptista came off the bench for the FA Cup triumph at Anfield on January 6 but saved his best for the Carling Cup tie at the same ground three days later, scoring four times in an incredible 6-3 victory. The 25-year-old opened his account with a curling free-kick, scored Arsenal's fourth with a tap-in and completed his hat-trick with a low shot from 20 yards before another close-range finish wrapped up an amazing night on Merseyside.

Baptista was back on the bench for the visit of Manchester United but was on the pitch by the time Robin van Persie and Thierry Henry struck in the final 10 minutes. Then the Brazilian took centre stage at White Hart Lane, scoring an own goal but showing tremendous character to bounce back with a second-half double as Arsenal secured a 2-2 draw in the first leg of their Carling Cup Semi Final. Baptista missed the second leg through injury but he had already played a major part in helping Arsenal set up a Cardiff showdown with Chelsea. - Arsenal .Com
