You see in
any ball game we side with whom we would like to win.

It was only recently after seeing Gaby from What's Gaby Cooking do some really simple «cook, open, toss»
side dishes on Snapchat (I'm having a
ball over there join me... I'm dineanddish) that I decided to up my
side dish
game a bit.
Whichever way the Arsenal
side should stand up to the physical challenge in order to win vital
balls in the
game.
the other problem i often see is in our last 2
games, when someone create attack from wing / wide
side and then passing the
ball to mid he rarely watching other player position player before passing (like ox) so its just waste & only 1or 2 player who's hard tryin to get the
ball, when arrived to mid like sanchez / giroud, the other i think are just watching and waiting (if lucky) the
ball come near him.
But since Lucas has been with the
side, albeit just two
games, it seems as if Wenger isn't quite on the
ball when it comes to his striking options.
Monreal has really made a difference to the left
side Gibbs plays to many
balls back and across to the centre backs he is so prone now to get injured he doesent go forward and his defending is woefull can't see him even playing for England again, don't get me wrong I do like him but his
game has declined Play him as a sub as Monreal if one of the defenders is injured can fill in like Sagna did CB
The problem is our defence and cdm Flamini: always help the other
side Arteta: never was the player than we expect him, he injured most of the time, and lost the
ball in dangerous situation Per: he is good just in corners but he is lazy and slow Our good defender is just kosc and chambers And also debuchy but we must play with out him aleast 1 month Gibbs and monreal are good players but they are not good defence So we are very delicate in big and important
games
The team went on an eight -
game winning streak, and has been pretty impressive on both
sides of the
ball.
A dominant second - half performance on both
sides of the
ball sent Clemson to the College Football Playoff Championship
Game after a 37 - 17 Orange Bowl win over Oklahoma.
I agree with the comments above about sometimes playing as a CDM to improve the defensive
side of his
game, but he can similarly execute the defensive
side of his
game when winning the
ball back further up the field as well.
Not that 11 - man players don't play both
sides of the
ball, but I think it definitely helps with the speed of the
game and being able to open - field tackle.
This
game had some exciting moments as fielders were kept off balance (on both
sides of the
ball) with timely kicking and aggressive base - running.
Poor officiating decisions been this way all year the officials are performing terribly poor finishing been this way all year laca will do better next year auba is to new to the club and epl he is finding how mich effort you need the hard way he should of scored and that is a blatant foul on mustafi people keep saying he put his hands up when he was hit, well that is the natural reaction when back pedaling eyes on
ball and someone plants there feet and pits a shoulder in your back your arms come up its nature but we suffered again from poor finishin i do nt care what sport that is high action especially football and hockey of you do nt finish your chances you create when on top the other
side most likely will when they get theres its been ou achilles heel this year we.cant kill
games because we have missed our created.chances
I think it was a pretty well coached
game on both
sides of the
ball really.
Two Stars, Joe Montana and Jerry Rice, were at the top of their
games; two teams were playing for the NFC championship, but all the big plays were on one
side of the
ball.
Aside from the goal though, he's been one of, if not the best, players on the pitch in the last two
games, as his all - round technical quality on the
ball is making a huge different for Fernando Santos and his men, and he looks like he is going to relish playing a pivotal role in Guardiola's
side next season and beyond.
On the other
side of the
ball, the Browns took advantage of the turnovers, maintaining a lead for most of the second half, eventually winning their third
game of the season.
Ramsey did nothing the entire
game except

2 B2B CM, 1 of them a tough tackler while the other more of a link up play B2B sitting onfront of a creative safe passer who can read the
game well to intercept while defending and to be a option to pass to when we have the
ball, smart enough to play long
balls when needed or swap
side of play or just safely maintain possesion of the
ball.
Boring match with majority possession
ball on our
side... So predictable when we're playing with no wide on the right
side, ramsey always make run to center area... OX change the
game & need to be starter...
To be fair to the Arsenal and Germany international star, I can appreciate that a lot of his
game is focused on the creative
side of the
game; using his passing, movement and vision to make the team flow and stretch the opposition before spotting the killer
ball that will unlock the defence.
With Mertesacker in the
side, the team will have to be very cautious to play a high defensive line because as we saw against Chelsea, one precise through
ball can take the big German out of the
game.
However, Wilshere is clearly adding discipline, awareness, tackling and a great long range passing ability to his
game and it might be a good idea for the Gunners to make use of that a bit more, especially in
games against the weaker
sides when we dominate the
ball.
1 - They both have bad
side court manners 2 - Both are angry most of the time 3 - Both scream and cuss their players 4 - RR got us to couple
ball games 5 - Miller got us to a couple EE 6 - RR never recruited 5 stars players 7 - Miller always recruited 5 star players 8 - RR was never implicated in a federal FBI investigation, Miller was
Let's face it goalkeepers tend to march to the beat of a different drum and Szczesny certainly fell into that category, but most of his antics were relatively harmless and simply reflected a certain level of immaturity that isn't uncommon for someone thrust into the limelight at such a young age... lord knows we've seen that happen with numerous players throughout the years and very few were ever banished for such behaviour... the only on - field action that drove me crazy was his inability to take a deep breath and not try to rush the play with an ill - timed throw at certain points in the
game when common sense suggested holding the
ball and slowing things down... the fact that he continued to do this probably had a lot to do with the glaring lack of coaching time spent with the goalkeepers... ultimately he made the fateful decision to take his frustrations out into the public sphere and paid dearly for it... in the end, his services were wanted by several of the best Italian squads, which is significant considering the historical importance placed on the defensive
side of the
ball in Serie A... all I know is that if someone asked me to pick the most athletically gifted goalkeeper we have had in our squad since the arrival of Wenger, without hesitation, he would be my pick and for that reason his departure is more than a little disappointing... what else is new though
Both
sides of the
ball — plus special teams — will walk through the entire
game plan (including exotics).
More recently, it has been a case of incompetence in the defensive
side of our
game, we've tried to take the
game to Chelsea and go guns blazing which put us at danger every time we lost the
ball on the counter attack especially as we used to play a ridiculously high line.
Once again the Arsenal and Switzerland international midfield star Granit Xhaka showed the reckless
side of his
game by launching into a rash, clumsy and fangerous tackle after giving the
ball away cheaply and he was punished with yet another red card to make this home
game against Burnley a lot tougher than it should have been for the last half an hour.
We will see now how good he is and can be if given
game time Oh and by the way did you see Sanches give the early
ball with his right to Ozil to score, if on left
side it wouldn't have happend, stop turn get it on my right, shit Iv lost it better run back.
The way Busquets dictated the away
side's tempo and broke up Madrid's attack was key in Barca's win, as it allowed them time on the
ball and let them control the pace of the
game, something that helped the Blaugrana stride towards victory.
I think Arteta is a very good player against smaller, less physical
sides where he has time on the
ball, but for the big
games we need someone who won't get pushed around and bullied.
Not only did Jimmy Butler hit the eventual
game - winning free throws, Butler also produced on the defensive
side of the
ball,...
The Tigers themselves have enjoyed 49 % possession of the
ball in the 7
games so far and, going by their midfield and striking personnel, Bruce's charges will surely have their own
game plan against a beleaguered Arsenal
side.
I still don't understand people's obsession with boxing players in to a specific role... The whole «true DM» is a dying breed, even Coquelin is arguably something else considering the advanced positions he takes up often in front of Santi and takes major risks in winning the
ball back for us... IMO, the reason Coquelin has had such a successful integration into the first team is that he focussed incredibly hard on the basics of his role first and foremost before adding other elements to his
game (long -
balls, driving runs into space, more aggressive
ball movement in general) it's not rocket science to tell a player to curb the attacking
side of their
game and focus primarily on defence before attack... Nor is it that hard to see that playing in a midfield pairing with either Ramsey or Cazorla is going to be different as well.
Not only did Jimmy Butler hit the eventual
game - winning free throws, Butler also produced on the defensive
side of the
ball, swatting Kevin Martin here during the 4th quarter.
Ozil and Sanchez got worn off towards the end of the
game because each time the
ball came into the midfield the
ball went to there
side.
We have to play WHU 2 days after so resting Chambers to me would be ideal as we know WHU will pump
balls into the box and we'll need arial dominance against WHU in our own box, also our fullbacks for that
game will need to make sure they do nt get overloaded by their fullbacks... Just look at some of the crosses Jenkinson has been putting in (I know Jenkinson would be on our left, Gibbs
side, WHU fullbacks have both been doing well though) I feel Chambers would get overloaded on there left (our right) but Debuchery has the experience to deal with it.
I paid attention at what elneny play he is very calm and his pass rate was successful mind you
side ways but he lobed in few
balls I think he was to scared to leave a gap well done for me cause we controlled the
game nicely wellbeck did well too i thought if any one could score it would be him was a bit disappointed with Campbell he spieled a few pass but did well with the free kick Barcelona is different i do nt know how Mr wenger will approach it but we need a tight midfield to eliminate the three we need to score our chances looking forward for it
Jurgen Klopp's
side then put the
game out of sight 12 minutes after the break, as a horrendous mistake from Hector Bellerin allowed summer signing Mohamed Salah, who joined the club from Roma for # 34M according to the BBC, to go through one - on - one with Cech and, with the whole half to himself, slotted the
ball past the former Chelsea shot - stopper to all but secure the three points for the home
side, much to the joy of the Anfield faithful.
Holding said he wants to leave last January so wenger played him and now he's re payed us with giving the
ball away over and over again for the first goal and we obviously need a proper defense coz our only central CBs are koscielny n mertesacker so van dijk should of been our first target along
side lacazette but wenger thinks monreal n kolansinac are CBs we would of won this
game by a lot of goals if we could defend but being cheap won't allow that
, Arsenal is not a charity, Arsenal is a football club trying to to win EPL, not a charity trying to help a player who is overated and useless, he got pay to play a football, not to operate patients and he got 75m a week to be able to pass the
ball correctly, never mind score or assist, I get 480 # / week if my confidence is low my boss will give me a kick at back
side to sort my self out or the door, we do not have to risk our chance of winning the
game for a sake of Ox, bench him, the best player plays, we don't gonna miss is scoring ability or his assist, we will be less frustrated if he is on the bench typical English player!
The quick and obvious answers are they are getting no splash plays on the defensive
side of the
ball, their running
game is severely overmatched (Oakland allowed 147 yards a
game on the ground through two
games) and now they have receivers with fumbleitis.
I agree with you that AW has done some astounding things for the club, but he has also made some reall
balls ups and week in week out it seems he is not able to offer up a tactical plan B or utilise key players in key positions against the relevant
sides we play, (not starting with Rosicky and Walcott on Saturday was one such instance) I realise that no team wins all their
games and I know that we have been under the cosh for quiet a few years now, but what annoys me more than anything else is the lack of Visible ambition, we spent three weeks messing around with Beliek and only just managed to get Paulista who was an uncertainty due to a work visa.
I fully understand we just lost one
game and uts not the end of the world but am struggling to deal with is the consistent lack of mental toughness that are the hallmarks of all title winning teams... we need to be proactive and stop been reactionary, simples... we had what is in all honesty a good couple of matches begining of the season WINNABLE
games but we already fell short at the first hurdle now all the talk is about bouncing back, whatever happened to eyes on the
ball straight from the off... a Westham
side with a new manager, some new players and a 16 year old making his debut beating Arsenal at home is just plain disgraceful and whatever happens next does not in any way mitigate against that.....
Oxy great for runs but lacks
ball control if he can work on that
side of his
game he will be great but we can be nip picking let's say well done to the squad and you have raised your bar now so keep it up CB
The Blues fell behind just six minutes after the
game had started, as a
ball from Manuel Lanzini put Arnautovic through on goal, with the former Stoke ace slotting to the
ball past Thibaut Courtois to put his
side 1 - 0 up.
The likes of koscielny, coquelin, monreal and ospina have also made a difference, but also wenger has made changes to the attacking
side of the
game, players like podolski and sanogo have been moved out as they simply offer little to the team in way of work rate when we don't have the
ball.
But ALL
game long the refs had it in for us: -
Side Judge MULTIPLE times added yards to placement of
ball: -2 yards on a fair catch PR -1 yard on a fair catch PR - constantly giving them 1/2 -2 yards when placing
ball after catches (couple 1st downs too)
Yep because passing the
ball side to
side is the way to win
games I forgot..
Yea, where the hell was ozil, yea, busy with his average self, m back again with my ozil analysis When you play
games after
games with
side passes and obvious passes, no dribbles, no 1 - 2s, no shots on goal and you keep possession of the
ball in non-threatening areas and people say you are a world class player, well, he's the poorest world class player I've ever seen, so to say.
