While those question marks remain, with the transfer activity mainly focusing on
attacking options so far, the defense for the opening day has even more question marks with Pontuss Jansson suspended for the first two games of the season, the opening match at Bolton and the League Cup match against Port Vale.
Who knows... what is for sure is that we have to play way better than in any of games so far... they have gaps in defence and have lost two serious
attacking options so I hope we are attack minded... team almost picks itself... Reluctantly would say Walcott over giroud with ozil playing behind....
Football like life is uncertain... What is certain however is that following the same failed strategy year after year and expecting a different result is a sign of ineptitude if not madness... Our best 11 ain't up to it largely because it doesn't threaten and unthreatened teams also mean there is more pressure on our defence as well... So a bit of tinkering in the middle of park ain't going to deliver titles that is for sure... Draxler plus a mobile striker is needed... So unless the idiote grenouille is willing to shelve out 80m can kiss titles goodbye now... He can recover 30 - 40m with obvious sales of mediocre
attacking options so not too onerous but at this rate it's déjà vu all over again
cant see wenger adding another CF is walcott is handed that role... but do need
another attacking option so need an aguero type player cutting in from the right... suggestions?
Not exact matches
Well, they say the main reason they're
attacking them is they say CEOs tie their compensation to buybacks, to EPS, and they get more
options, and
so they try to drive up EPS, and buybacks are artificially inflating EPS.
There's
so much more to Taco Bell than the super-double-decker-cheesy potato - heart -
attack wrapped in a tortilla, and our new list of low carb Taco Bell meal
options are here to prove it!
Klopp's teams have always played a high tempo game and will again today
so i suspect posession will come and go easily both ways and for this reason i would go with Iwobi for a more
attacking option and use campbell if needed to help protect a lead later in the game.
but no way are gibbs and monreal top top class...
so the talking heads are right... same as it ever was same as it ever was... still need a DM
attacking option and world class left back... kondogbia will do rodriguez or damine on left... most difficult is
attack personally not interested in higuan cavani martinez all over rated and overpriced... benzema better for us but also way over priced... lacazette might work but expensive vietto or younger
option in aguero mould more likely
But if we are going to compete next year we need two quality
attacking options... that's a minimum of 60m
so need to sell the whippet Campbell and Ramsey... And Rodriguez for Gibbs is the right thing to do that's another 10m
so if we can get 60m for our three that's good business
a perfect description of walcott... there are
so many better
options... the whippet another player who couldnt take us beyond forth place greatness... that said starlng for 50m is silly... and again there are definitely better players out there in terms of
attacking options... might get 20m for walcott (though realistically under 18m)...
so sell and take a punt on dyabla or go for drexler or make a bid for reus... all make us a better team
A draw is irrelevant
so may as well lose 4 nil... Wenger better add
attacking options at half time....
Still, the Express now state that Chelsea are unwilling to pay the 24 - year - old's release clause of # 43m, which is perhaps a lot for the club to be spending considering they already have
so many top class
options in
attack as it is.
The North - East side are now tenth in the table but still only nine points from the drop zone
so O'Neill will not be getting complacent and though he saw Frazier Campbell make a successful comeback on the weekend, scoring at home to Middlesbrough in his first game in over a year, Sunderland could still do with more
attacking options.
With Chelsea Falcao better than drogba
so already stronger
attacking option and I am guessing one more quality signing possibly replacing oscar and if it's griezman they will be way out favorites..
wenger is a legend in his own mind
so other peoples opinions... fans, ex players, journalists, etc... have no bearing on his greatness or the righteousness of his own decisions... from end of last season it was clear we needed two quality
attacking options to put up a serious challenge (getting rid of walcott and campbell or ox and bringing in a serious upgrade over giroud) instead he brought in another midfield
option (having done the same in the winter window) which only makes sense in his own delusional world rather than the reality of facing up to serious and strengthening competitors and which defines the job at hand....
PSG seem to be set in that department with Kylian Mbappe, Edinson Cavani and Neymar forming their
attacking trident, and
so Monaco perhaps seem like that most suitable
option if an exit materialises.
In all honesty Arsenal played well we had very good position with loads of chances and 13 corner kicks how come we are
so crappy at scoring corners???? We need to start scoring the chances we get from corners we could have easily beat southhampton by 4 goals but forster was good he got the 3 points off us MR wenger should go back to the drawing board as he has some
options one of witch could the calling of welington silva or a reshuffle bring iwobi in elneny or new methods in tactics as in picking players and rehearse
attacks strategy As for the referee I to felt done by him there was on particular foul on sanches that was not giving at the end we need to register our efforts and be clinical
We are not playing him anyway and have plenty of
attacking options,
so maybe he could be used as part of the transfer deal for McCarthy.
not selling walcott would be massive mistake as he has proven over 8 years plus that he cant take himself or this club to next level
so cash in (might get 16 - 20m if lucky) and bring in a real quality
attacking option..
Dream world I would like Dybala, he has done well for Juve since his move and he could provide a strong
attacking option on the right
so it isn't
so easy to mark Alexis out the game, we would be able to switch sides easier and stretch oppositions with possession.
United's next
option is probably young Tyler Blackett to fill in but he is not really an
attacking left back,
so Bellerin's task would be easier.
the cheese eating surrender monkey has screwed up again we all know that now
so we have to hope to get our real quality players performing to full potential that is ozil sanchez wishere carzola... i am not sure there is a combo with all four and at this moment wilshere and sanchez are the only ones looking pretty decent and as wellbeck needs to be integrated those positions are settled... i am a big ozil fan and really believe wenger is failing to get best out of him by playing him out of position
so cant we play some kind of diamond with him at the top feeding to a front line of sanchez and wellbeck... for me neither flamini nor arteta add anything to the team
so i think playing to
attacking strengths is the only
option right now... but its really a ridiculous state of affairs we have been left in... throwing caution to the wind i would go for
I certainly think that if Arsene Wenger had these
attacking midfield
options open to him then he might not be
so reluctant to let the young Gunner Alex Iwobi go out on loan to gain some valuable experience.
He's predominantly a left - winger but can play across any of the
attacking midfield positions
so he'd certainly give Wenger plenty of
options in the final third if he was to move to the Emirates this summer — although the report says Chelsea and Liverpool are also interested in the player
so we could face stiff competition.
so a first choice defence of bellerin gab kos and darmien with kondogbia in DM position would give forward players real confidence... debouchey, chambers mert monreal as backup... and then a quality
attacking option reus sterling pedro lacazette whatever... all better than walcott...... thats 3 in and half a dozen out... shouldnt be a big deal..
yeah he is the most flexible
option as a player can play in any
attacking 3 positions, not
so fixed to one spot like the benz although wenger could mold him into the ultimate number 9.
We are also said to have first refusal on the
attacking midfielder,
so if another club does decide to offer Madrid morte money for their player then Arsene Wenger would be given the
option to match it and still get his man.
So Wenger has a big job on his hands convincing this young Gunner that he will get decent opportunities on the pitch despite all the
attacking options already in the Arsenal squad.
I think France's tactics are different form ours that's why OG plays better there, or they have better players (of course),
so Lacazette may as well be a better
option for us as our fast
attacking tactics suits those kinds of strikers
YES e Coq has proven that he CAN do the job, but has yet to prove he WILL do the job all season long and even then its a tall order to expect no suspensions or injuries to befall him, Arteta, Flaminni Chambers and Wilshire are all second rate in the DM position and Cazorla doe not shine there as he's an
attacking midfielder by nature
so its the cheaper
option YET AGAIN!!!!! iM NO hafiz Rhaman who parrots the «Spend spend spend» Mantra all day long but EVERYONE and thie dog knows what we need and what should be done
so AW pull your finger out and get to it, stop thinking cheap and nasty and bring somereal glory back to the club you purport to love
so much.
We only had a title chance with current squad in the bizarro world of wenger and his dilusional followers... We needed 3 quality signings to really compete but an
attacking option and DM would have upped the odds...
so what did he do?
the difference now is that with the new additions we have
so many different
options of
attack its crazy and must be a worry to other teams on how to defend even if they park two double decker buses,
So wait a minute.Are Arsenal looking for a defensive midfielder or a box to box player.I'm really disappointed in Xhaka's defending.He's very good with his long passing but I don't think he's the best option when it comes to box to box.In Arsenal he's normally used as the defensive midfielder particular deep lying playmaker and this actually means that we need someone who is fantastic at attacking and can also do very well defensively so as to compliment for Xhaka's defensive short comings.Ludo Goretzka is very good defensively from the little I've seen but I don't really know much about his attacking qualities.But I also hope Arsenal does not forget about Mario Lemina.He's a complete midfielder and to me has the capabilities to be one of Europe's best if given the chance.He can defend very well and attack very well.He's a player Juventus would regret selling.As for Goretzka I know he's very good defensively but have» t seen much of him in terms of attack.If he's as good as in attack I'd sign hi

my chioce carvalho reus and gustavo a double defensive coup and awesome
attack options covered (gustavo can cover left back and c / h
so would be a good secondary c / h
option behind chambers and carvalho)
However, having come under fire from supporters during Sunday's win over Genoa, the situation may change for him as he has struggled
so far this season and Chelsea could be handed another opportunity to try and reach an agreement to add another top
option to Conte's
attacking line - up.
(And don't start reeling off the Man U and Man C striker
options, they play 2 up front to our 1
so logically need more striker depth — consider the whole
attacking unit).
So if Arsene Wenger is looking for
attacking options when Arsenal resume the serious business of the season, Sanogo's goals and performances for France will certainly have given him food for thought.
For fullbacks want to see bellerin and Gibbs bcse better
attacking options don't trust mert against any quick team
so have to mix and match other positions in light of opposition... If we can keep in hunt til December might get some support in window for an EPL run in....
waste of money but wenger has promised him a CF spot...
so we had better buy another
attacking option or it will be another frustrating season...
That extra
attacking option could prove crucial as Arsenal seek to get back to winning ways and stay there,
so is this injury news just the christmas present Arsenal needed?
We have no Coquelin in front of the defence, don't forget,
so having two
attack minded full backs may not be the safest
option.
Better at
attacking than Gibbs and as good as Monreal tracking back... should be a no brainer... Gibbs sold ageing Monreal a good back up and can ease this guy in to EPL... Net cost maybe 10m... but as far as I can tell wenger believes most of his business is done with Shaka jap as holding
option for welbecks return wilshere and santi back and «revitalized» giroud and Ramsey like new signings... But anyone basing next years EPL on this euros is beyond football redemption... All the poor performers last year have upped their management and squads...
So far the only non mover..
The Portuguese tactician has various
options behind him, with Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial, Jesse Lingard, Juan Mata and Alexis Sanchez vying for places, and
so perhaps it makes less sense for the Red Devils to target another
attacking midfielder.
Clearly if we are playing Ramsey on the right wing ahead of Walcott and wellbeck we are short of a world class
attacking options... Friends who watch serie a each week rate dyabala very highly
so an obvious choice....
With
attacking options we have now we don't need that side of his game
so much... Need to boost defensive side of midfield and have creative players who can build for the real goal scorers and Ramsey is crap at both those...
this guy is not yet an epl level player its
so f ****** obvious to anyone other than wenger and a bunch of delusionals on this web site... farm him out to brentford see how he does maybe he will end up better than bendtner am not yet convinced but happy to be proved wrong... but we need more serious
attack options up front for sure this season to be serious contenders... thats a certainty
so until we bring in another
attacking option Ramsey likely to nudge it though whatever pundits on this site think wilshere is the more Complete midfield player....
Chelsea have more solid backbone and better
attacking options... Wengers job to correct...
So far he hasn't... Mourinho quietly confident
whatever you think of ramsey... and in my books he is a decent b2b but certainly not top class... he is not going to control the area between edge of box and centre line which is what all great DMs do... nor has coquelin proved that to me... he is a guttusso type player and has improved massively in that role... not convinced it is what will take us to challenging for titles however which is why a cavalho type DM is a needed addition especially as arteta and flamini are obviously not up to the task... but have always said that wengers job is to get best out of ozil santi and wilshere who are the real creative world class strengths of this squad... they need protection behind them and
options in front... at moment the real worry is that wenger will continue to use mertesakher at CB and fail to bring in quality striker...
so the song remains the same... without quality DM and
attacking option we will be trying to retain 3rd place and reach qf of cl
wenger had decided some time ago that we had enough
attacking options to achieve 4th place with alexis, giroud, walcott wellbeck and campbell... he might be right... what is for sure we will not be challenging for titles at home or abroad... but the colonel does nt need that to keep in power
so he «s happy...
