Not exact matches
But the catalogue of sub 40 %
possession Arsenal wins is getting
more impressive by the week.
We will never know, of course, but there is a good argument that with one of those first choice players available,
Arsenal would have played better throughout and would certainly have enjoyed
more possession and control and would probably have held on for the win or even increased our lead on the counter attack.
These are the players who lose
possession more than any other players in
Arsenal team
AOC is a favourite of mine but he probably makes
more errors in
possession and poor decisions then any other
Arsenal midfielder.
But
more than this, also evident was a lack of options available to the
Arsenal players when in
possession, having to settle for square passes to teammates occupying the same space.
I want to see
Arsenal dominate with
more ball
possession consistently in all games.
If
Arsenal allow opposition teams a good foothold in the game as they seems to always do nowadays and continue to play with less than 50 %
possession, they will have to score at least 3 goals or
more per game to win matches.
Arteta does do a great job of keeping
possession and dictating the pace of the game, but he is much
more effective when
Arsenal are playing the so - called lower clubs.
A quarter of the way through the game,
Arsenal had much
more possession as usual but hadn't tested Fabianski once, while Swansea have had 3 good chances.
As a major importance to their style of play it is no surprise that
Arsenal control almost 5 %
more of their games in
possession.
Arsenal are better off not having too much
possession in order to win
more, against Man United we must let them have the ball and play on the counter attack!
Arsenal have not scored as many goals as our
possession and creation have deserved, but Welbeck is improving all the time, Alexis is getting
more used to the BPL and with Walcott coming back as well as Podolski and Campbell pushing for a place, you would expect us to start banging a lot
more in.
This is how good teams play,
arsenal only had 30 %
possession but made
more threatening chances.
That goal opened the flood gates and you could see immediately the effect it had on the game,
Arsenal were showing
more possession and looked dangerous.
I'm just worried of
Arsenal's ball
possession though, because Ozil, Ramsey and Xhaka usually can not hold the ball for
more than two touches.
Ramsey and Elneny was pick to give
Arsenal control or
more possession.
THey seemed to want it
more and they played very well and while
Arsenal dominated
possession early on, they coped with it well and we did not do the same as they grew into the game and punished us with some good goals.
He is highly rated by Guardiola, Bayern wanted him, and he plays great attacking football that is mostly
possession - based, so it's not far off from what
Arsenal are used to, but this guy is much
more of a tactician as well.
It's
more effective when using a high - line — and you can really pack the midfield — instead of having 1 bruising tough tackling midfielder you attack the ball when not in
possession in packs — that's similar to what
Arsenal did against City — they looked like a 4 -1-4-1 formation when they didn't have the ball and 4 -3-3 when they had the ball.
what
more arsenal.its a total waste with all that ball
possession, if you watch most of these premier leauge goals scored by other teams, they are outside shots, or shots parried by the keeper etc, when a shot is taken, it creates tension, which could lead to a penalty etc, but at
arsenal, its a different case... thats why we do all the ball
possession and pressing, then when teams like watford get one or two chances..
Crystal Palace actually had
more possession and
more shots than
Arsenal (and MANY MANY
more corners, but The Gunners second bit of good fortune came when our second goal was also judged to be offside after the event.
Arsenal vs Newcastle at the Emirates and Newcastle have
more possession, shots and shots on target.
There aren't many reliable objective facts when it comes to Ozil — but knock out the emotional stuff and the diversionary fluff about body language etc and the bare numbers tell us he isn't lazy, he touches the ball
more than any other
Arsenal player, re-cycles and passes it better than any, is surer in
possession and creates
more chances.
you wont see a cazorla or a xavi losing
possession, not only that but they drive the team forward.but unfortunately u hav players like ramsey, who do nt drive the attack like the above two, also he loses
possessions sometimes by attempting fancy moves.its sad ramsey gives
more importance to style over substance.unfortunately, i feel players like ramsey hav contributed to
arsenal's inability... imagine a team like barcelona playing with him, constantly losing posession leading to conceding goals and so on.difference is barca's manager wud take them out, while under wenger u r rewarded with the nxt game!!!! i do nt deny he was top notch a season or two back, but now hes a liability imo and need to change his mentality.even that opportunity he got against tottenham where thought longer before taking a shot thus giving defender time to get to him and take off the ball.i bet if it was cazorla,
arsenal wud hav scored...
The Frenchman can really make this pay even
more on Sunday by getting
Arsenal to focus on
possession.
Arsenal were also careful not to expose the defence but were the team trying to go forward
more in the first half, esopeciall after the opening 15 minutes as we began to dominate
possession and force Chelsea to sit deeper.
Drogba came on for the second half and surprisingly, Chelsea came forward
more and
Arsenal dropped back and conceded
possession but maybe that was a tactic to get us
more space at the other end.
how many people noticed during the koln game that sanches lost the ball
more than 6 times few wont notice cos he was running at defenders and scored a good goal, but believe, me if koln was a good side
arsenal would have lost that match due to alexis lost of
possession in the middle, i will stick with welbeck, and bring in alex later.
33 attempts at goal 75 %
possession and lose comfortably it can only happen to
arsenal it would be funny if not so tragic and I'm for one not buying the reason we lost is because of De Gea it's as much poor finishing as it is great goal keeping
more aggression with the chances and you score I don't care who's in goal just smash it doesn't have to look pretty and I don't have to say very much about the defending it's schoolboy stuff all this talk about koscielny (bosscielny) never got that isn't physical enough to be an Adams or Campbell gets muscled off the ball far too often he's a good player don't get me wrong but he ain't world class and definitely isn't a leader I'd replace that whole back line and drop xhaka and ramsey for new signings yeah ramsey set up a nice goal but that kid can not hit water if he fell out of a boat his shooting is awful always sky's them very frustrating player.
We have
more possession and
more chances than
Arsenal.
The
Arsenal boss concluded that the rigors of the Champions League would make all of Leicester City's other football matches
more difficult to play — especially given that Leicester are devoted to aggressive counter-attacking rather than focusing on
possession — but stopped short of guaranteeing the team would fail to reach their ambitions for the Premier League in the 2016 - 17 season.
Apart from his goal Welbeck was playing like a 4 or a 5, not attacking like a CF should and
more interested in keeping the ball
possession than trying to do something with it, he doesn't look to score but looks to keep the ball moving between
Arsenal players.
While
Arsenal controlled large spells of
possession during the match, thanks largely to the extra man in the centre of midfield, they lacked a cutting edge and weren't able to trouble Brad Freidel's goal as frequently as was necessary to conclude anything

Ramsey can still gamble and go forward when
Arsenal have good
possession, but he is picking his moments far
more carefully than before, and he does not join attacks as much as he did.
It's been
more or less constant
Arsenal possession since the restart, but they can't find a gap in the Saints defence.
The game went into extra-time, and
Arsenal clearly looked like the side with
more urgency about them, as they controlled
more possession, but with very little to show for it.
Many would argue that
Arsenal should have possibly scored
more and created even
more chances, given the
possession they enjoyed through large parts of the game.
As the game progressed,
Arsenal were in
possession of the ball
more, but were far less likely to create chances.
Dominating his quarter, he would rarely lose an aerial duel, seeing
Arsenal retain
possession more frequently, and look to break from deeper areas at least expecting times.
Both Liverpool and
Arsenal shared a number of similarities in their attacking play in this match, but Liverpool's setup was
more akin to a counter-attacking side (46.5 pc
possession), as you would expect, likewise,
Arsenal's attacking style focussed on overloads out wide in forward positions — whereas Liverpool attempted to create overloads in situations in order to exploit and expose the midfield from deep:
Although
Arsenal had considerably
more of the
possession over the course of the game, the match was very even in terms of
possession from around the 40th minute through to the 80th:
The second half was really much
more of the first half,
Arsenal possession: Wayne Hennessey saves.
After
more possession play, Wilshere sprung Walcott who burst forth on the right side, drove a hard low cross into the box which was fired home by OWEN GOAL to extend
Arsenal's lead to 4 - 0.
Harry's men continue to defy adversity, coming from behind to win on so many occasions this season,
Arsenal and Liverpool included, while they showed character which hasn't been seen in a Tottenham side before to pick up draws against Birmingham and Chelsea
more recently, the latter two matches they probably should have won had they converted superiority in
possession and chances into goals.
