Not exact matches

He should have picked either Chambers or Holding to start in the back three with the first league fixture in mind when Konscielny will be sitting out a ban.Playing the Ox as a makeshift left sided wing - back is hardly going to persuade him to sign a new contract on the basis that he's an integral part of the squad....

Yes he is right, but comcerning the weekend game i do nt just knw why am so confident for the game.firstly liverpool can never cope with our attack, and secondly if we defend from the front like we did from the last two games the defence will be under less pressure.Evne flamini weakness was well covered bcos we defended as a team and attacked as a team.Lastly, we have chambers back for the game and hopefully the Ox and Walcott so no need to raise any fears.Infact liverpool, s attack depends too much on sterling imho, and i think we can keep him quiet, he is not even a good finisher anyway.I strongly believe we will come out on top with hard work and commitment minus complascency
As a matter of fact, this is one of the main reasons for underperforming in last few years - the so called «British core» - overrated and low quality British players, well bellow, in quality, to foreigners.To spend 32 millions on 2 mediocre English players - Welbeck and Chambers - when you can get foreign «wizzards» for that type of money is suicidal.Now, go on an analyze how much Wilshere, Gibbs, Ox, Walcott and Ramsey helped the team to be the best in the last few years.And how much, for instance, did Sanchez in only few months.Alexis is better than all «British core» combined and cost a fraction of these overrated players.The time we get rid of the british players is the time we go back on top.Time will tell...

Last year we bought Debuchy to replace Sagna, Ospina for Fabianski, Chambers for TV, Welbeck for Sanogo & Sanchez as the only big signing when we already had Theo, Ox, Poldi (all very good at the time).
he might of not been great but he was way better than ramsey honestly ramsey has had 3 poor games in a row, he keept giving the ball away and he's always trying to be fancy, he's so much better when he plays simple and to his strengths like determintation and energy, and today the positives i took were chambers because he's a boss, the ox he's class, wilshere is getting back to form, and ozil as well he looked really good.
Look at the introspection that Theo went through and how he's improved as a result; Jack now on loan; scez on loan; ox considering that his future may lie elsewhere; chambers on loan.
We need alot of deadwood gone (which wenger has done tbh last 2 seasons) which is Scez, Ospina, Debuchy, Arteta, Rosicky, Flamini (Hayden takes his spot or 1 yr deal just as cover) Ox and Chambers have to go out on loan and then we have Jenko, Gnabry, Martinez (no2 next season), Akpom (maybe loaned to prem club), Hayden (loaned or takes flames place)
So it's okay for us fans to turn on players going through a rough patch — pick one of Monreal, Flamini, Arteta, Ox, Walcott, Ozil, Mertesacker, Gibbs, Wilshire, Ramsey, Welbeck, Chambers, Campbell Giroud as they have all had patches of chief wihipping boy anc scape goat — but if they dare leave we brand them as disloyal and traitors.
Well wenger cant spot it even though you can is because he is being reasonable and you are just craving for new signings like a lil baby lets look at our cbs: Kos — World class — suspended Mustafi — Very good / potentially world class — not fit Mert — Very good and a leader — injured Gabriel — Good but i do nt like him that much, but better than Kos was at the beginning - injured Holding — Good and very talented — played Chambers — Good and talented — not fit at all Monreal — Very good and solid (CB or LB)-- played Kolasinac — Very good / good as CB — played Bellerin — RB or RWB — played Ox — RWB or LWB — played
It only happens once it comes on sky sports news and it speculation before if we get lemar or mahrez or both then good, but we need to sell ox, giroud, chambers, Jenkinson, Theo and Perez to free more cash, as for Alexis Sanchez well no one invincible and if he wants to leave then Wenger should sell him, no player bigger than the club
It's the same every year even the commentator said Giroud has come on as a sub for the last 3 years that we've played Bayern at the Alllianz Arena that shows that nothing is changing, there are many players according to me who are not quality from back to front and the whole British core sucks Gibbs, OX, Wilshere, Walcott, Welbeck, Chambers yes some are on loan and that's because they suck!
I would play chambers in dm position alongside ramsey with ozil having free role behind sanchez and ox on right that gives us plenty of pace and will allow ozil to get on the ball more and produce his magic passes he will be much more influential then stuck out on the wing espec as he is poor at tracking back so lets play to his strengths that will get the best out of him and in turn create more chances for forwards!

I don't think you can put Ox in the same category as Chambers and Gabriel who have yet to really show much — and Gabriel has not had that many chances yet.
Chambers is said to have lacked adequate recovering defending pace, while the Ox is seen to lacked mid right wing stability as his often error prone (conceding own goals) and injury prone.
Kolasinac, Monreal as LB and Bellerin and Chambers as RB, with OX as RWB Sell Debuchy for anything, Jenks for 5 million and Gibbs for 10 millions.
Look IF as an example our english core (Walcott, Welbeck, Wilshere, Ramsey, Ox, Chambers) would be delivering on there much lauded talent and raw abilities we probably wouldn't be asking for fresh blood and change to some level.

I was fairly impressed with Chambers and the Ox as well and would be happy to see them start again.
Time for some brutal honesty... this team, as it stands, is in no better position to compete next season than they were 12 months ago, minus the fact that some fans have been easily snowed by the acquisition of Lacazette, the free transfer LB and the release of Sanogo... if you look at the facts carefully you will see a team that still has far more questions than answers... to better show what I mean by this statement I will briefly discuss the current state of affairs on a position - by - position basis... in goal we have 4 potential candidates, but in reality we have only 1 option with any real future and somehow he's the only one we have actively tried to get rid of for years because he and his father were a little too involved on social media and he got caught smoking (funny how people still defend Wiltshire under the same and far worse circumstances)... you would think we would want to keep any goaltender that Juventus had interest in, as they seem to have a pretty good history when it comes to that position... as far as the defenders on our current roster there are only a few individuals whom have the skill and / or youth worthy of our time and / or investment, as such we should get rid of anyone who doesn't meet those simple requirements, which means we should get rid of DeBouchy, Gibbs, Gabriel, Mertz and loan out Chambers to see if last seasons foray with Middlesborough was an anomaly or a prediction of things to come... some fans have lamented wildly about the return of Mertz to the starting lineup due to his FA Cup performance but these sort of pie in the sky meanderings are indicative of what's wrong with this club and it's wishy - washy fan - base... in addition to these moves the club should aggressively pursue the acquisition of dominant and mobile CB to stabilize an all too fragile defensive group that has self - destructed on numerous occasions over the past 5 seasons... moving forward and building on our need to re-establish our once dominant presence throughout the middle of the park we need to target a CDM then do whatever it takes to get that player into the fold without any of the usual nickel and diming we have become famous for (this kind of ruthless haggling has cost us numerous special players and certainly can't help make the player in question feel good about the way their future potential employer feels about them)... in order for us to become dominant again we need to be strong up the middle again from Goalkeeper to CB to DM to ACM to striker, like we did in our most glorious years before and during Wenger's reign... with this in mind, if we want Ozil to be that dominant attacking midfielder we can't keep leaving him exposed to constant ridicule about his lack of defensive prowess and provide him with the proper players in the final third... he was never a good defensive player in Real or with the German National squad and they certainly didn't suffer as a result of his presence on the pitch... as for the rest of the midfield the blame falls squarely in the hands of Wenger and Gazidis, the fact that Ramsey, Ox, Sanchez and even Ozil were allowed to regularly start when none of the aforementioned had more than a year left under contract is criminal for a club of this size and financial might... the fact that we could find money for Walcott and Xhaka, who weren't even guaranteed starters, means that our whole business model needs a complete overhaul... for me it's time to get rid of some serious deadweight, even if it means selling them below what you believe their market value is just to simply right this ship and change the stagnant culture that currently exists... this means saying goodbye to Wiltshire, Elneny, Carzola, Walcott and Ramsey... everyone, minus Elneny, have spent just as much time on the training table as on the field of play, which would be manageable if they weren't so inconsistent from a performance standpoint (excluding Carzola, who is like the recent version of Rosicky — too bad, both will be deeply missed)... in their places we need to bring in some proven performers with no history of injuries... up front, although I do like the possibilities that a player like Lacazette presents, the fact that we had to wait so many years to acquire some true quality at the striker position falls once again squarely at the feet of Wenger... this issue highlights the ultimate scam being perpetrated by this club since the arrival of Kroenke: pretend your a small market club when it comes to making purchases but milk your fans like a big market club when it comes to ticket prices and merchandising... I believe the reason why Wenger hasn't pursued someone of Henry's quality, minus a fairly inexpensive RVP, was that he knew that they would demand players of a similar ilk to be brought on board and that wasn't possible when the business model was that of a «selling» club... does it really make sense that we could only make a cheeky bid for Suarez, or that we couldn't get Higuain over the line when he was being offered up for half the price he eventually went to Juve for, or that we've only paid any interest to strikers who were clearly not going to press their current teams to let them go to Arsenal like Benzema or Cavani... just part of the facade that finally came crashing down when Sanchez finally called their bluff... the fact remains that no one wants to win more than Sanchez, including Wenger, and although I don't agree with everything that he has done off the field, I would much rather have Alexis front and center than a manager who has clearly bought into the Kroenke model in large part due to the fact that his enormous ego suggests that only he could accomplish great things without breaking the bank... unfortunately that isn't possible anymore as the game has changed quite dramatically in the last 15 years, which has left a largely complacent and complicit Wenger on the outside looking in... so don't blame those players who demanded more and were left wanting... don't blame those fans who have tried desperately to raise awareness for several years when cracks began to appear... place the blame at the feet of those who were well aware all along of the potential pitfalls of just such a plan but continued to follow it even when it was no longer a financial necessity, like it ever really was...
This leaves Wanyama and Coquelin as our DMs of the future, with Ox, Ramsey and Chambers as well.
We need to play a front three of Cambpell, Sanchez and Ox The Ozil and Ramsey just behind and Chambers as a DM, the back four is what's left, then we get the guys to press all over the park, when in possession one touch and move the ball quick
With the Ox, Rosicky and Chambers as subs.
The names are as follows: Defenders are Debuchy, Mertersacker, Konsienly, Gibbs, Monreal and Chambers The Midfielders are — Arteta, Flamini, Sanchez, Diaby, Wilshere, Ox, Walcott, Ozil, Carzola, Rosicky, Ramsey, Podolski (A few such as Sanchez Walcott and Podolski can be useful in filling up for strikers when there is dire need)
But as always The Ox with his laziness and lack of defensive ability just kept walking and ball watching instead of getting stuck in to help chambers out... The Ox has had enough time at the club now, he had a good attacking game yesterday but football now days is more than just doing one thing..
At least Chambers, Debuchy and Gibbs have good pace so they can really help the German, as can Flamini and the Ox in front of the back four.
