Not exact matches
Regular weekly meetings with standing agendas,
for instance, give
team members the
chance to raise issues before they can fester, and to stay up to date on each
other's plans so there are no surprises when, say, a certain promotion might be boosting sales — and the quantity of work on the warehouse floor.
We now just have an exceptional player who does exactly what he's in the
team to do like few
others in the prem can and that's create space and
chances for his
team - mates.
As
for Man City and our title
chances, I think we have as good a shot as any
other team in the top 4 at the moment.
@well they havent been as successful as under pep but did win treble season before this.hope the two madrids can stop them winning
for nxt few season.but in reality,
teams havent devised a formula to counter possession play
other than defensing deep which risks
teams like barca having
chance to keep attacking.so until
teams understand how to overcome posesion, they wil probably keep getting success...
This media hype of Arsenal winning the league is so delusional.Arsenal stands the same
chances as all the
other big
teams including Liverpool.Wait
for a lost match and and a draw then u will see how this same
team will be bashed by the same pundits.If u want avoid disappointment, don't raise your expectations to high especially looking at a
team that has only made one signing!
Ozil is a game changer, but until he starts finishing his own
chances, he will continue to rely on the finishing of
others for his
team to have major success.
As many
others have already said in
other comments, I think the allure to agents and players is a
chance to play
for a winning
team.
I don't think Tavares would take a
chance with the Hurricanes (or any
other team for that matter) if they still miss the playoffs.
To all giroud bashers, who claimed
other strikers would score 30goals
for all the
chances wil created, man city, liverpool actually created more scoring
chances than us which depicts that our midfielders need to create more to meet up with these
teams and our fans must stop picking on players to attack.
though, I would think the
other team's plan to win playoff games starts with «don't let them set up
chances for their best player»
do u think any of them will be happy seeing another MF come into the
team which may make them start looking
for playing
chances and
other rival clubs submitting bids and they may end up leaving and you think I'll be happy to see those two leave?
The Bears are picking 8th and it may be the last time
for a while that they have a
chance at elite game changing talent before ending up like the Dolphins or one of these
other «football hell»
teams that pick in the teens every year.
Because of Wenger and our many French players over the years we are a popular
team in France and so the boss suggested that today's game was a good opportunity to bring some happiness to people while also being a good
chance for the players to focus on something
other than the terror attacks.
Winning Le Mans is a tough ask whatever the situation, although
for Alonso, being in the lead car of the only manufacturer LMP1
team should elevate his
chances slightly - as long the bad luck both he and Toyota seem to suffer from cancel each
other out.
To simply blame our attack on our defeat to Manchester United would be a bit rich considering the errors which saw us trailing by two goals inside 11 minutes, and West Ham also had
chances gifted to them which could easily have seen us lose that match, and I personally find it rich that the underperforming defender is blaming
other areas of the
team for their displays.
I've always maintained my stance that Arsene Wenger loves French players in his
team than any
other players.No matter how average you are once you're French and once you're in the first
team he tends to give you so many
chances to prove yourself.I can start mentioning them if you want me to but I know you know them.If Lucas Perez was French he wouldn't have been out so early believe me.I just don't know where to begin.Was Giroud bought to become a super sub or to be the leading striker?Having giving us many sesons of failure people are now content with him being a so called super sub.A player like Giroud is not built
for that kind of role.He ws a super sub in 99 % of those matches because he was not played when he was supposed to and we needed presence in the air.The funny thing is people are using only this season to label him as a super sub.There were so many matched that Wenger should have started Giroud but
for some reason didn't start him.I only see Arsenal as the top club who'd be crying over Giroud.If a good offer comes we should sell.
THat led to the two
teams cancelling each
other out to a certain extent and
chances were pretty thin on the ground in the first half, which is why the opening goal was a big plus point
for the Gunners and once again it came from our big centre forward Olivier Giroud.
Not sure how impressive we look, maybe better than last season but
for what it seems a little too late, our
chance with this
team even with this Manager was last year, when all
other teams collapsed.
Yes, we will have far lesser
chances to compete
for the title without him around because there is no
other player in the
team with similar quality and STYLE of play close enough to his level to step in.
Fortunately
for the honor of British bridge and
for the
team's
chances in the next European Championship, no player went down in six hearts at any
other table.
Otherwise, to play Tulane (or any
other AAC
team) would require going to Florida
for the Boca Raton / Gasparilla Bowls, and there's basically a 99.99999 %
chance the C - USA
teams in those games will be from the East (or UAB).
Maybe the
other teams have a
chance but not when the referee is always
for Madrid.
It's shows that any
team from the bottom to the top of the BPL has a
chance to upset the apple cart, as opposed to the
other European leagues... Big ups to Leicester City
for showing that the BPL is not just about super rich
teams who dominate year after year.
Sorry to say this but he got them because they were dimmed surplus
for their
team, they would never get first
team player at their previous club, they would have been benched and used as substitutes because there were
others who were given first
team chance than them.So when you are a substitute player at your current club, it is easy to get a player than signing a first
team player.Sorry but this is the truth.
Would the
other top
teams want Barca to join knowing that their
chances of winning trophies will be diminished along with less money
for finishing lower in the league and less tv revenue.
As long as
other teams stay as inconsistent as ourselves, we'll have a slight
chance, but if Man City
for example go on good run, we won't be able to keep up.
I think only barca real or Bayern can tempt those players away from leicester, they would give at least a year to the club, but season after that they will move onto
other club depending on their form next season.As
for arsenal transfer i wouldn't want to listen to rumours as most of the times these rumours are just utter garbage.i want a certain rumour about Wolfsburg signing giroud to be true.Anyways if our idiotic manager has some sense left in him after an embarrassing season he should get a premium striker which the club needed
for past 4 years.He need to put his ego aside and his old philosophy of waiting
for players to develop.We need already established players in every department of our
team.Penny pinching has cost us just pay the damn money get the players.I get the feeling next season is going to be harder and we have less
chance of winning cause man city have had 2 seasons without premier league and guardiola is gonna bring more quality and hunger to that
team.
As
for the EPL this season, I believe we stand a
chance; just as 6
other teams do.
I keep saying it and will continue saying it, We have lost the one thing that we could hide behind (Beautiful Football), since that summer that Cesc and Nasri left they left with our beautiful possession and dominating football, all of a sudden we struggle to create
chances, we come up against any half decent
team and they will dominate us, this never happened but since 2011 - 12 our football stinks with no direction, slow, clueless boring, players not closing down but instead just jog around waiting
for the
other team to lose possession..
On the
other hand I would say this game provides another
chance for the
team to step into gear and find that coordination again.
If you asked me, if Wenger wants him to get a run of games then he should be loaned out to some
team in the EPL
for a season and not used to cloud our performances just because he should be given
chances when
other players suffer and our game suffers.
As much as I respect
other opinion I have my opinion and that Wenger is the best manager
for Arsenal FC at the moment, no drastic unplanned change in mid season, and he deserve a
chance to show us how good the
team can be when we have full squad together.
Other teams shoot given any half
chance so get goals while we try to pass the ball into the goal looking
for the perfect
team goal witch fails 80 % of the time and opponents no exactly this will always be are game plan so they easily defend our never changing tactict
i am not too bothered by the manner we won today the most important thing is the 3 pts remember burnley beat liverpool not so long ago, also
for the people who thought the title was already lost after just a few games (which by the way was stupid to think) well not only man city got beaten but their
team looked jaded / tired and even though they have a very good squad they missed de bruyne terribly, it is not the same
team without him they couldn, t create any
chances which is good news, it can, t be good
for a
team to depend so much on one player (we should know a thing or two about this) in case he gets injured hopefully we have moved on from this and can deal with injuries to our players in case it happens to us, we had our fair share and it is time
for us and to watch
other teams getting depleted, COYG.
you said the same thing after this event in 2014... and again in 2015... then last year we did nt actually win anything but we added xhaka so lets get behind the
team like wat a «true» fan does... unlike
others on this site who do nt really know anything about footie like me even though ive been wrong about our
chances for the last 10 seasons it do nt matter coz i'm a real fan and wenger is a great bloke who knows about footie whereas all these negative fans do nt know nuffin... its like listening to some demented uncle every xmas droning on about how things were better in the old days when everyone knew their place....
You moan and moan about Wenger Trophy — ie Champions League min of 4th place — yet when we do nt achieve it say we desperately need it... Arsenal should be grateful
for having
chance to see if
for 20 years that no
other PL
team has....
The problem with Wenger is he is not ruthless enough, Sanchez and Ozil wo n`t sign new contracts so they do not to be at Arsenal so sell them instead of hanging on, he gives some players too many
chances and these 2 are stopping
others that want to be there a spot, we have a good
team with many good players that want to play
for the club.
Do not worry my brother
for Wenger himself is sitting on a ticking timebomb.The day will come when he will leave in shame if he does not do the right thing.Juat look at Flamini average from day one and his timebomb exploded.He is nowhere to be seen so shall this same thing happen to Wenger and some
other players in the
team whom i woill not mention
for some reasons.I feel so sorry
for him.He looks like a worried man and the man on the hot seat yet when the
chance comes
for him to relieve himself he mostly enters the hot water again.Its a pity because there is really no need
for him to leave if he makes the right decisions and buys the right players.By the way where is TH14atl
defensively he did well chasing the ball... we have given
chances to
other players
for years and still they have not developed their full potential, my take is that we (WENGER) does not execute the proper squad rotation, playing the same players again and again, is the reason why we don't have a plan B a second
team that can change games and certainly has to be a factor
for the out of the chart injuries our players sustain season after season.
I wouldn't be surprised if Ozil, sanchez, walcot, Ramsey, wilshere or any
other arsenal player left us
for another
team with a better
chance of wining major trophies.
If Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil both stay at the club to
team up with Lacazette, they would form an attacking trident that's much more dynamic and fluid than when Giroud plays up front, as they could interchange positions and create
chances for each
other.
Neither one is too old
for the price and the
other doesn't score enough against top
teams Give Lacazette a
chance young, quick and a good eye
for goal, won't cost as much as Martinez and would be patient
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
this window has just finished i am already thinking about who we will get
for the january window we might try
for khedira on a really low offer as he is free agent almost would help boost numbers in midfield in the new year as we will no doubt need to filling the numbers about then also i will hold my hands up and say i was wrong this morning
for giving wenger stick and saying welbeck is rubbish i have been out in the cold light of day and had a
chance to reevaluate the situation and realized that this could be a canny shrew transfer on wenger behalf actually if wenger can turn the clock back and work his magic on welbeck and get him scoring goals and improve his game then we could have a great underrated signing on our hands its wengers absolute trust in him that might be what makes him a great player as this is something that he never had at old mordor if anybody can make him a world beater wenger can he loves this little pet projects improving players against the odds welbeck has the skillset to be high class player upfornt he just needs to work very hard on his finishing i think once he gets a few goals under his belt he will settle in fine and he is a
team player you could put him on the left against man city to shore up that side and he will put in a great shift without a complaint that could be his biggest asset to us or on the right whenever we need him there ithinkwenger might start himon the left against city to protect the left back against navas and i bet you if he does a great job we will take a shine to him quickly i am hopeing he will be one of those wenger gems that he finds and polishes up to a high finish i must admit i was annoyed as some
other gunners were at not signing d / m and c / h but if wenger does win the league with this lot it will be his greatest win yet and what might play in to our hands is the unpredictable nature of the league in the last few seasons if we get on a good run at the right time we might be hard to stop look at city they should have never lost to stoke but the result is there in black and white
for all to see and i think chelsea will hit the skids after a while to just because cesc and costa are doing well now thats there main threat but
teams will work out how to stop them as the season goes on and chelsea will become predictable i think we might just do well this season after all
Leicester on the
other hand started pretty well but they were in touch with top4
for the majority of the season and then they took their
chances when
other teams like Arsenal, Mancity and Manu were bottling their own
chances.
The season actually begins with Pre-Season testing, a
chance for teams, cars and drivers to familiarise themselves with each
other, and start preparing
for the battle to come.
But on the
other hand, after all his contributions
for out
team in the past few seasons, i'm happy
for him because he stands a better
chance to win something with Manure than our club, that hurts more (even Ian Wright confessed that), we cant even assure a top class player of anything anymore,,, i» scared
for ozil and wilshere leaving too....
I limited it to the western conference because the thing I disagree with is the sentiment that any FO should not trade
for good players / sign players in FA / etc if the
team «has no
chance against 2
other teams in their conference»
In term of CB, people are forgetting that the youth academy have good players in Hayden and Ayaje.Southampton use to do well with their academy because the supporters will allow and accept the youths to be given a
chance, now supporters from a big
team like Arsenal wants proven expensive world class players in order to win quickly in detriment to give a
chance to the youths club.Wenger show preference to some in detriment of
others too playing always the same player and giving few
chance to
others.Bendtner last year was treated badly, look out this year
for Campbell and why not give a
chance to Ayaje and Hayden who are olders than Chambers in the cb position, don t tell me it s about potential if they are not given a
chance?
This period is purely to get match fitness and to use proper matches rather than training ground
for new players to understand the system as well as giving Arsene a
chance to see which of the youngatefs might be able to cut it and also to see which of the 1st
team squad might be able to cover
other positions (or not as the case seems to be with Elneny!)
