None of these teams did much to improve, and all are probably worse this year than last year.

Smiling Hara proudly employs a hard working, wonderful
team without whom
none of what we
do would be possible.
Not only
do they need Chelsea to drop double - digit points, they also have to hope
none of the
teams above them make a run for it.
No wonder,
none of the English
teams do well in Europe.
none of our mid would be playing in any
of the top 4
teams and rightly so, be honest with yourself so you
do nt get dissapointed later on trust me this season is gonna be longer and harder than the last with more ups and downs than a rollercoaster ride.
What annoys me even more all these
teams do it against us but
none of you go oh Matic just passed sideways all game he's so poor.
So I don't think our issue is the makeup
of our
team, more the reality that
none of them are actually dominant.
and would add if the same management structure hadn't lied to fans about how all this would allow us to compete with top
teams in Europe with... with exception
of PSG... are not driven by oil wealth or megalomanic owners...
of course
none of this has anything to
do with the footballing errors consistently made by wenger and which if corrected would at least give us a BETTER shot at winning top trophies than has been the case over the last dozen or so years
There are other issues — Trevon Duval has been wildly inconsistent in multiple areas and Grayson Allen still seems like he has no idea what his role on this
team is supposed to be — but
none of them will matter if the Duke defense doesn't right its wrongs over the next month.
And a

Wtf Why are u so scared
of liverpool they can't attract players like we can so what they bought 5/6 players so far
none of them would get in our
team anyway I'm confident this year in what we can
do I don't care who other
teams will buy, every year
team will strengthen so why be scared we should just focus on ourselves COYG in Wenger We Trust
In the midfield, (including RWB & LWB) we have a whole bunch
of tweeners...
none offer the full package,
none make sense in our manager's current favourite formation, except for Sead on the left and Ox on the right, and all
of them have never shown any consistency for more than a heartbeat... Sead, who I'm including in this category because
of our present formation, looks like a positive addition, minus his occasional brain farts, but I would rather see what he could
do in a back 4 before making my mind up... Ox, who has never played better, which isn't saying much considering his largely underwhelming play in previous seasons, seems to have found a home in this new formation; unfortunately, can we really expect this oft - injured player to handle the taxing duties that come with said position over the long haul, not to mention, it looks like he has no intention
of staying... Ramsey has relied on the empathy that stems from his gruesome injury years ago and the excitement that was generated a few years back when he finally seemed to put in altogether, but on the whole he has been a big disappointment (neither he nor the Ox have scored enough to warrant a regular spot)... Wiltshire should be put on a weekly contract then played until he suffers his first injury, if and when that occurs he should be shipped - out and no one should very be allowed to say his name on club grounds ever again... Elnehy & Coq are average players who couldn't make any
of the top 7
teams currently in the EPL... both have showed some great energy on the pitch, but neither are top quality and no good
team can afford to have that many average players on their bench playing the same position, especially with Coq's injury history / discipline concerns and Elheny's headless chicken tendencies... as for Xhaka, his tenure here so far has been incredibly underwhelming... we know he has some skills to provide the long ball but his defensive work is piss poor and he gives the ball away too cheaply and far too often... finally, the enigma himself, Ozil, so much skill with his left foot but his presence has been more frustrating than uplifting... in many respects his failure has been directly related to the failure
of this club to provide him with the necessary players up front, minus Sanchez
of course, and unless something drastic happens very soon his legacy will be largely a negative one (much like Wenger's)
None of his
teams ever
do well.
forget about what other
teams are
doing and saying,
none of our business at all.
None of those featured a WAC
team winning it all, though,
did they?
Wenger needs to play our best 11 in string
of games only way to build a
team likes
of iwobi ox coq Walcott Ramsey ok for league and fa cup but
none close to quality needed to challenge top
teams... Truth is this psg
team would not be in contention in EPL... But point will
do
And about
teams, he had scored against Bayern for last two season,
none of arsenal player was able to
do soo, & also scored vs LIV and how much had he played against Top
teams like Che / Manu / Manc so never say about scoring against small
teams...
you fans from the beginning
of the season some
of us where saying the
team is not good enough no Wolcott is on fire bellerin best left back Sanchez ozil Lauren world class ox running the midfield some
of us are not fool that easy the i said the
team where actually overachieveing base on the quality
of the players we are not blind i don't believe in god so i analyze and scrutinize every players individually and collectively
none of our players can start for the top ten clubs not even sanchez
It's totally ordinary for the
team that just lost to hustle off the court — and plenty
of the Golden State Warriors
did — but after a series that got pretty hostile at times, it was wonderful to see some Golden State players stick around amid the Cleveland Cavaliers» celebration to show love to the Cavs,
none better than this one:
While other pitchers and
teams have lost a no - hitter,
none of them lost the game after setting themselves on fire quite like the Yankees
did.
And the person to blame for these mistakes is
none other than the coach himself... i bet he hasn't watched a video
of Palace recent games as yet... he wont study opposing
teams, thinks we go out there and give it our best... if it doesn't work... Oh well, i still get paid and still have a job!!!
Not only
did we beat the
team directly above us in West Ham, leapfrogging Sam Allardyce and his
team into the bargain, but
none of the other
teams above us in the Premier League table won either.
Sure, his playing pedigree was unquestionable, but he just didn't have a lot
of managerial experience yet
of any kind, and
none with a first - division
team.
And please don't say ex AFC players because as far as I can tell
none of them are barely started out as
of yet (would be a long punt) Simone, would have to change not only the entire
team, but also the coaching / coaches set up, also tear down the youth system and bring in a huge amount
of new kids because they are AFC type hopefuls not AM types.
This is an incredibly difficult question to answer for a variety
of reasons, most importantly because over the years our once vaunted «beautiful» style
of play has become a shadow
of it's former self, only to be replaced by a less than stellar «plug and play» mentality where players play out
of position and adjustments / substitutions are rarely forthcoming before the 75th minute... if you look at our current players, very few would make sense in the traditional Wengerian system... at present, we don't have the personnel to move the ball quickly from deep - lying position, efficient one touch midfielders that can make the necessary through balls or the disciplined and pacey forwards to stretch defences into wide positions, without the aid
of the backs coming up into the final 3rd, so that we can attack the defensive lanes in the same clinical fashion we
did years ago... on this current squad, we have only 1 central defender on staf, Mustafi, who seems to have any prowess in the offensive zone or who can even pass two zones through so that we can advance play quickly out
of our own end (I have seen some inklings that suggest Holding might have some offensive qualities but too early to tell)... unfortunately Mustafi has a tendency to get himself in trouble when he gets overly aggressive on the ball... from our backs out wide, we've seen pace from the likes
of Bellerin and Gibbs and the spirited albeit offensively stunted play
of Monreal, but
none of these players possess the skill - set required in the offensive zone for the new Wenger scheme which requires deft touches, timely runs to the baseline and consistent crossing, especially when Giroud was playing and his ratio
of scored goals per clear chances was relatively low (better last year though)... obviously I like Bellerin's future prospects, as you can't teach pace, but I
do worry that he regressed last season, which was obvious to Wenger because there was no way he would have used Ox as the right side wing - back so often knowing that Barcelona could come calling in the off - season, if he thought otherwise... as for our midfielders, not a single one, minus the more confident Xhaka I watched played for the Swiss national
team a couple years ago, who truly makes sense under the traditional Wenger model... Ramsey holds onto the ball too long, gives the ball away cheaply far too often and abandons his defensive responsibilities on a regular basis (doesn't score enough recently to justify): that being said, I've always thought he
does possess a little something special, unfortunately he thinks so too... Xhaka is a little too slow to ever boss the midfield and he tends to telegraph his one true strength, his long ball play: although I must admit he
did get a bit better during some points in the latter part
of last season... it always made me wonder why whenever he played with Coq Wenger always seemed to play Francis in a more advanced role on the pitch... as for Coq, he is way too reckless at the wrong times and has exhibited little offensive prowess yet finds himself in and around the box far too often... let's face it Wenger was ready to throw him in the trash heap when injuries forced him to use Francis and then he had the nerve to act like this was all part
of a bigger Wenger constructed plan... he like Ramsey, Xhaka and Elneny don't offer the skills necessary to satisfy the quick transitory nature
of our old offensive scheme or the stout defensive mindset needed to protect the defensive zone so that our offensive players can remain aggressive in the final third... on the front end, we have Ozil, a player
of immense skill but stunted by his physical demeanor that tends to offend, the fact that he's been played out
of position far too many times since arriving and that the players in front
of him, minus Sanchez, make little to no sense considering what he has to offer (especially Giroud); just think about the quick counter-attack offence in Real or the space and protection he receives in the German National
team's midfield, where
teams couldn't afford to focus too heavily on one individual... this player was a passing «specialist» long before he arrived in North London, so only an arrogant or ignorant individual would try to reinvent the wheel and / or not surround such a talent with the necessary components... in regards to Ox, Walcott and Welbeck, although they all possess serious talents I see them in large part as headless chickens who are on the injury table too much, lack the necessary first - touch and / or lack the finishing flair to warrant their inclusion in a regular starting eleven; I would say that,
of the 3, Ox showed the most upside once we went to a back 3, but even he became a bit too consumed by his pending contract talks before the season ended and that concerned me a bit... if I had to choose one
of those 3 players to stay on it would be Ox due to his potential as a plausible alternative to Bellerin in that wing - back position should we continue to use that formation... in Sanchez, we get one
of the most committed skill players we've seen on this squad for some years but that could all change soon, if it hasn't already
of course... strangely enough, even he doesn't make sense given the constructs
of the original Wenger offensive model because he holds onto the ball too long and he will give the ball up a little too often in the offensive zone... a fact that is largely forgotten due to his infectious energy and the fact that the numbers he has achieved seem to justify the means... finally, and in many ways most crucially, Giroud, there is nothing about this
team or the offensive system that Wenger has traditionally employed that would even suggest such a player would make sense as a starter... too slow, too inefficient and way too easily dispossessed... once again, I think he has some special skills and, at times, has showed some world - class qualities but he's lack
of mobility is an albatross around the necks
of our offence... so when you ask who would be our best starting 11, I don't have a clue because
of the 5 or 6 players that truly deserve a place in this side, 1 just arrived, 3 aren't under contract beyond 2018 and the other was just sold to Juve... man, this is theraputic because following this
team is like an addiction to heroin without the benefits
It's the players movement in front that's making us over
do it a bit because there's no point having a gap opened up or a ball hit over the top if
none of our forwards can get at it before the other
team.
total failure... Can you believe Wenger spent 32 millions on 2 average players (Chambers and Welbeck) and is penny pinching when is sbout real class players?What is in his mind?Pay a fortune in salary for mediocre players live Walcott, Ramsey and Wilshere and have hesitations about increasing Sanchez wages... keeping on books failures like Sanogo... The truth is - I say it for years and years - until the «British core» disapears, we are not going to be succesful.The low quality
of British players is dragging the
team back.Last time Arsenal was a powerhouse
NONE of the first 11 was British.Wanna see how the British quality looks like in a football
team - look no further than national sides
of England, Scotland, N Ireland, Wales, even Ireland (not British but same style)- all mediocre
teams «able» to be defeated by any
team coming to mind.And you are asking about Chambers?He is in the same mold like Wilshere,Walcott,Ox,Ramsey,Gibs,Jenkinson - mediocre overpriced and overpaid players.The world is full with hungry, ambitious and skilled players living in poverty and dreaming
of moving to the top at any cost or sacrifice (
did you see the poor house - if you can call that house, looking more like an old tent - in which Alexis Sanchez grew up?Or Suarez?)
The way we got beaten yesterday was embarrassing, it wasn't even nearly good enough, wenger will prob say «it was just a friendly and doesn't really matter» and «it was a chance to try something different with some youth players» and to an extent he is right but
none of the players in an Arsenal shirt were good enough and we looked very weak and if we play anything close to that in the prem, even against a bottom half
team we will probably lose.
As for his tactics he has
none it is simply play our way don't worry about the opposition well we don't have he best
team on paper to
do that so no wonder we all come up short against the very best with that line
of thinking.
And let's all be true to our selves we are not getting
none of the world class strikers out there look at the
teams they are at and what can we offer them that the
teams they're at haven't given them already and I don't see the point in getting a striker that's not better than the striker we have already, morata lacazette.....
if you watch arsenal place I see so much space and no runs no runs at all only when in the box if you watch Leicester they are always makeing runs all over the place that's how you score goals against a
team like Southampton they controlled the game it was not unlucky just like chelsea can
do control the game and won arsenal players don't believe they can win the title the players in that
team play without heart you know why because Im sure wenger tells them becareful we don't need anymore Injurys what kind
of mentality is that also I will pick out Ramsey he is playing like a player who is leaveing the club he and flamini just don't work Ramsey is not playing good at all wenger can blame make excuses but truth is he is the manager he make the tactics and he gets it wrong all the time giroud has no pace
none bench him against some
teams and play pure pace make runs ox Walcott but they don't Walcott has lost it his pace has gone its clear or he fears I jury how if a player is fit put your all in forget injury if you get Injured then so be it but if your fit and your Walcott run put yourself about wenger should leave because he.
You
did not include Elneny in
none of the
teams you pick.
There you have it, four managers,
none of them English, who could
do a fantastic job in charge
of the national
team.
I too also know that we look weak at the back but i also believe they have learnt from there mistakes last season and have a stronger unity this season going into the 3rd season with the
team wenger has put together without losing key players and adding real Quality and world class that i havent seen before because
none of our history says we bought our trophies we won them with all the unexpected beliefs and never bought into the society and modern game we seen before us not one
of our legends were already labelled for they are today before they came to us The made a name for themselfs in our Jersey and build a foundation
of what we represent today Before Arsene Wenger and with him We are a club that overachieve and under promise Everything we've
done has be our very own unique way
of doing it not the way other clubs are ahiceving i for one will not Follow the Man City's ambitions Chelseas Manchester united or anyone elses
Don't think we can play Alexis for all
of these games Arsene, and
none of these
teams can be taken lightly — we need another striker, not just a stand in!
With Brad Stevens at the helm and
none of the «Big 3» being especially egotistical, I don't expect this
team to struggle all that much out
of the gate.
None of those
teams have the number
of young players that have established that they have legit futures in the league as Brooklyn
does in Russell LeVert Crabbe Hollis - Jefferson Dinwiddie and Allen.
He had
done that seven times prior to 2014 but
none of those
teams, though very talented, came close to going to or winning a W.S..
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...
It's hard to put a finger on why the U.S. has lost the last two — and five
of the last seven — Ryder Cups, although with the exception
of 1987, when the European big six
of Seve Ballesteros, Nick Faldo, Bernhard Langer, Sandy Lyle, Jose Maria Olazabal and Ian Woosnam were at the top
of their games,
none of the defeats had anything to
do with which
team had the best players.
The Arsenal old - boys have an opinion, but then so
do others like Low, Ramos, Mourinho, Gullit, Muller, Ronaldo, Wenger, Fabregas and his present
team mates — and
none of them were paid for a quote.
Although it will be incredibly difficult to ever match his contributions on the pitch, it's vitally important for a former club legend, like Henry, to publicly address his concerns regarding the direction
of this club... regardless
of those who still feel that Henry has some sort
of agenda due to the backlash he received following earlier comments he made on air regarding Arsenal, he has an intimate understanding
of the game, he knows the fans are being hosed and he feels some sense
of obligation, both professionally and personally, to tell it like he sees it... much like I've continually expressed over the last couple months, this
team isn't evolving under this current ownership / management
team... instead we are currently experiencing a «stagnant» phase in our club's storied history... a fact that can't be hidden by simply changing the formation or bringing in one or two individuals... this
team needs fundamental change in the way it conducts business both on and off the pitch or it will continue to slowly devolve into a second tier club... regardless
of the euphoria surrounding our escape act on Friday evening, as it stands, this club is more likely to be fighting for a Europa League spot for the foreseeable future than a top 4 finish... we can't hope for the failures
of others to secure our place in the top 4, we need to be the manufacturers
of our own success by
doing whatever is necessary to evolve as an organization... if Wenger, Gazidis and Kroenke can't take the necessary steps following the debacle they manufactured last season, their removal is imperative for our future success... unfortunately, I strongly believe that either they don't know how to proceed in the present economic climate or they are unwilling to
do whatever it takes to turn this ship around... just look at the current state
of our squad,
none of our world class players are under contract beyond this season, we have a ridiculous wage bill considering the results, we can't sell our deadwood because we've mismanaged our personnel decisions and contractual obligations, we haven't properly cultivated our younger talent and we might have become one
of the worst clubs ever when it comes to way we handle our transfer business, which under Dein was one
of our greatest assets... it's time to get things right!!!
Must believe they can
do this,
none of that sissy type
of mentality that seems to creep into the
team sometimes, and deflect the pressure back onto Leicester City.
None of the top quarterbacks
did much to distinguish themselves, top players like Saquon Barkley, Minkah Fitzpatrick and Quenton Nelson,
did what was expected, and there's been no word on players bombing
team interviews or failing drug tests.
I read somewhere that some said we're not clinical enough that is a culture at wenger has become too friendly with the players at Arsenal the players position are seldom under treat you play poorly for two weeks and you still make the
team you missed a look at almunia retrospectively don't understand that hey if i get a chance to score i must take it the first time cause i may not get a next one and you want the players to be clinical it must start from the top good work or
none As was said on a website to day Arsenal should parade through the streets
of london in an open top Bus at the end
of the season the accountants
of the club and i will through wenger in there too cause to most
of you he can
do no wrong I love this club with all my heart and i can support no other club in football but to see for 5 seasons we can't show any vast improvement and keep making the same mistakes every year is hard to swallow it makes me sick but as wenger says judge me at the end i wonder what end he meant the end
of the season or the end
of his contract GO ARSENAL......................
What you are
doing, is looking at two clubs, based in two different leagues, with different
teams, different finances, different fanbases, belonging to different eras, and finding a grand total
of ONE common factor between them, ie Arsene Wenger, have set out to look for patterns where
none exist, at least in terms
of the data, or facts if you prefer, that you provide.
Actual supporters
of the Magpies will probably think different, with the
team's 5 - 1 annihilation
of local arch-rivals Sunderland a fortnight ago extremely hard to eclipse, but to win at The Emirates, against all the odds and expectations, takes some
doing and considering the amount
of effort they put, the manner in which they set themselves up, kept their positional discipline and their application was second to
none makes their 1 - 0 win over Arsenal in the capital unquestionably their best result
of the season to date — As controversial as that may be.
I am with you on that Pablo, in theory we should have 75 — 80 mill to spend, I wouldn't put Zabaletta in the 2 or 3 quality players, he is decent offensively but plays in a
team that rarely has to defend, Moses looks decent
doing that at Chelsea, all too often Byram has been exposed by not having any defensive assistance if we sign him will be interesting to see how he is defensively because he will be tested in our
team, Batshuayi would be a quality addition but he is still only a reserve for Chelski and I don't think he could
do what Costa has for them or for us, imo we would still need another striker to lead the line, maybe Josh King if the rumours are true, what hasn't been mentioned too much is the left wing slots,
none of ours are particulary great most
of them seem to prefer the right side, if we don't go for Nolito maybe have a punt on Grosicki from Hull, we were interested in him previously and he is a very quick player that can create and score goals.
In fairness though, the latter was pretty prolific last season in Argentina although it begs the question why
none of the top
teams, or even some
of the mediocre sides around Europe didn't spot anything out
of the ordinary in the 25 year - old but Martinez
did, or supposedly has.
