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...

I have been reading comments of fans on here, especially those who have chosen to appreciate the average in ability that a striker like giroud possess, my question for ya all is, when did arsenal become a team so low on profile to sing praise of a striker who no one can rank among the top 3 striker in the league, I have seen an arsenal team with a striking force with players like, anelka, Wright, Henry, v persie, no one can rank giroud or whatever his name is in the category of my mentioned strikers.we all have got to face it, giroud is not good enough to be leading the attack of a team dreaming of winning the league, and Henry is right saying arsenal can't win the league with giroud as our striker,,, check this out, man u won league titles with strikers like Rooney, van nisteroy, v persie, man city won with aguero, Chelsea with drogba and now Costa, giroud stand no chance against any of those.let's stop appreciating mediocrity, wenger should get us a good striker as giroud is damn too average for arsenal

- Wenger can be so insane to do it.The man is out of this world and complety insane.He can not see what it is obvious for the entire world.To have better players on the bench and to keep favouring the same out - of - form or not good enough players week after week is madness.To play for draw from the beginning against an awful team which got beaten by the entire league on a daily bases - this is something unimaginable.It is not Mertesacker fault for being embarrased by any player on the planet, it is the manager fault for exposing him as a laughing point of focus.Wenger must go, the man is deluded, he is scarred to take any risk for success.Well, guess what - only showing courage and breaking the risk can bring you success.Not the case - I predict a chain of defeats following, with the cherry on top being a big defeat against Spurs - a team which, despite our hate, plays real football (with great results I must say).
