Back then he was carrying the team and this is what
class players always do.
Not exact matches
When I was in college, football
players were allowed to come to the first
class, skip every
class in between and show up for the final and
always managed to get at least a «C» on the exam.
injuries [parlour said our training techniques were the same as from 2004] not having a world -
class CF (cavani, suarez, rvp,...), very thin defence & some teenagers in it, no CDM until recently, i want to like wenger, but i think what he does is
always a bit short, why not spend a bit more to buy defenders (i don't buy his argument that they are hard to get; the solution is almost
always money), favoritism to some
players (wilshere..)
always thought of podolski as a world
class player!
Everyone has
always known that Ozil was a world -
class player, but now that he has added his ica - cold finishing to his repertoire, can he go on to become Arsenal's Ice - Man this season?
Football was never about loyalty.It's just a choice.We'll
always mention how loyal some
players were but won't mention how loyalty has finisbed the careers of some
players.Such
players stay in the team and waste their talent till they can no more longer reproduce their ability instead of moving for better chances.I know you know what I mean.One such
player is Jack Wilshere.If he had left Arsenal seasons back there was a high chance that he'd have been world
class since his injuries would've have been greatly reduced.I'd likd to see top
players who are loyal to average teams for me to call them truly loyal since it's far more easier to be loyal to top teams.
Winning titles is not
always by having all the positions occupied by world
class players, but by having everyone fighting for the team.
Sanchez is amazing and a
class above his team mates, but that does not mean he is complete,
players are
always trying to improve each game..
He has
always been considered to be a confidence
player, and he has been known to hang his head when things don't go right for him, but after tonight I dare anyone to say he is not a top -
class striker.
In golf, we
always overplay and overhype the emotion, character and
class of the
players.
Wengers
always been the one who prevented Arsenal buying more than 1
class player in a transfer window.
Failing the Post Invincible
class Can you all remember that of group of young talented
players that
always seemed to fall off just at the finish line.
i really think England has to stop relying on big names and put way more into youth systems like Spain, Germany who
always are producing world
class players all the time, and even their average
players are miles ahead of English.
Wenger and the Arsenal hierarchy are doing nothing to fill us with excitement for the next season as fans, teams who win things with ambition the likes of Juventus, Bayern Munich, Barcelona etc
always find
players to improve their squads but at Arsenal the only thing Wenger finds is new excuses as to why we are not signing world
class players!
A world
class player who can
always influence a tight game, German playmaker Mesut Ozil will be among Arsenal's most important
players this season in their quest for silverware, and if he can truly replicate the form he showed at Real Madrid he'll give the Gunners a good chance of winning silverware.
Plus you are
always going to be seeing some truly world -
class players both on our team and for the competition, like Tobin Heath and Sam Kerr IN THEIR PRIME.
I know Arsenal all too well and trust me we would've still lost.A lot of people think this Arsenal squad isn't good enough to win the league but I beg to differ.Give this same squad to Rafa Benitez or any world
class manager even without any signing before the transfer window ends and watch us play like you've never seen before.The problem in this team has
always been tactics, mentality and mismanagement.This is what has really been disturbing us for several seasons but alwas goes ignored.Mark my words that if Arsenal get everyone they're supposed to we're not winning the league if those three things aren't checked.We need signings but our problem is much bigger than signings.Give this same squad to Klopp or a too manager and you'd be shocked some
players who were called average will be playing differently.You know why?Strong mentality, proper management and good tactics count.
Why not sign Chicharito and put an end to this hulabaloo.The guy has quality and I've watched him enough to know he's not the kind of
player who'll be missing chances.His best attribute is his movement and speed.He finishes chances off like world
class players and can beat his man very well.In fact he
always causes trouble and keeps opposition
players on their toes.
We need this, sorry but wenger will never leave unless he finnish outside top 4, you can see in this match that we do nt have game plan, i do nt know what they do on training, they are just running from side to side with no plan, why wilshere get injuries, simple he makes stupid runs with no plan, he
always get injured like this, same goes to ramsey, what happened to ramsey, last year he was our sun, now he looks like 3rd
class player, i want Bergkamp on manager position!!!
We
always mock the Spuds here but in recent years they have managed turn Modric and Bale into world
class players.
This is what I hate about our beloved club and manager
always trying to shop in the dollar store to replace world
class players.
Mistamonn most of the time his playing
players out of position is because we don't have the necessary depth of
players for each position specially on the left, the team is
always out of balance he rely needs to buy W / C if not top
players in key positions, last year i was commenting that we needed a striker before a
class DM but i was so wrong, we first need the best DM that money can buy no mater how much then and only then we can look for another
class DM and a couple of descent defenders.
Up front we have a few world -
class players surrounded by some serious pretenders... Sanchez is by far the most accomplished
player in our attack but the controversy surrounding his contractual mishandling could see him go before the window closes or most definitely by season's end... obviously a mistake by both parties involved, as Sanchez's exploits have never been more on display than in North London, but the club's irresponsible wage structure and lack of real intent have been the real undoing in this mess... Lacazette, who I think has some world -
class skills as a front man, will only be as good as the
players and system around him, which is troubling due to our current roster and Wenger's love of sideways passing... Walcott should have been sold years ago, enough said, and Welbeck should never have been brought in from the get - go... both of these
players have suffered numerous injuries over their respective careers and neither are good enough to overcome such difficulties: not to mention, they both are below average first - touch
players, which should be the baseline test for any
player coming to a Wenger - led Arsenal team... Perez should have been played wide left or never purchased at all; what a huge waste of time and money, which is ridiculous considering our penny pinching ways and the fact that fans had been clamoring for a real striker for years... finally Giroud, the fact that he stills wears the jersey is a direct indictment of this club's failure to get things right... this isn't necessarily an attack on Giroud because I think he has some highly valued skills, but not for a team that has struggled to take their sideways soccer to the next level, as his presence slows their game even more, combined with our average, at best, finishing skills... far too often those in charge have either settled or chosen half - measures and ultimately it is us that suffer because no matter what happens Wenger, Gazidis and Kroenke will
always make more money whereas we will
always be the ones paying for their mistakes... so every time someone suggests we should just shut - up and support the team just think of all the sacrifices you've made along the way and simply reply... f *** off
Anybody sick sugar daddy's football is in sad place Man City reminds me Fifa game is gone to da dogs sad thing is arsenal try run things right way but truth is we're a bit behind for long time now and seems it will stay that way we need big name signing with Sanchez or with out I like xhaka very good footballer I like ozil silk
player Sanchez is
class but he is a winger and gives away ball a lot that's why he works a lot cause
always looses ball new left bk is great
player u watch he's a tank he's like ivanovic but a lot faster but we need replace santi hamsik anyone
Our problem has
always been that we're not willing to pay the wages that a top
class player deserves.
I must say since tme of rvp, arsenal havent had a world
class striker.when likes of rvp, arshavin played; u expected the team to
always hav a chance whoever.i guess u cant say the same of giroud.attitude-wise and overall Giroud is a good
player, but not suited for arsenal style....
You're very funny bro.Yet why is that upon all these stats why do I get the feeling that if top teams in the world were given the chance to sign only one of an in form Wilshere and in form Walcott both at their best everyone will be going for Wilshere.I keep telling people that even some of the
players we rate as world
class are useless in so many stats.For example some
players you rate over some
players might have inferior stats as compared to the ones you don't rate.I'd be happy if people would use stats to.compare
players always as you do here instead of using their eyes to judge in some cases and use stats to justify themselves in some cases.
Is one
player you forgot and this
player is Isco, yes Isco he took over Carzola when playing for Malaga and stop with this silly dream that maybe Wiltshire will become 10 % what Carzola is, and for all dreamers that think Wiltshire will become a world
class player, just wake up and you will find him in the treatment room, yes Carzola is over 30 now, but he will
always be better than Wiltshire, you know why?
GK I'm content with unless Cech is there for the taking which is a special circumstance (world
class player, knows the league, lives in london), and I
always advocate improvement regardless of the talent we have.
I wonder why, if he loves Arsenal so much, he insists on taking grossly inflated wages each year when he has
always insisted that the club will not pay the going rate for world
class players?
Why is this even an issue?We make some we buy some like we've
always done.It's not like we've ever had a full team or first eleven playing for Arsenal where all the
player actually came through our ranks and were not bought from foreign countries to come through our ranks.The fact is Arsenal give youngsters a chance time and time again such that even if they're average and were destined to be world
class and they become world
class then that's where the saying that» We don't buy superstars, we make them» arises.They continually give youngsters a chance that's the reason and we are unlike so many teams out there.
Isaac Hayden has world
class potential.Enough of the criticisms of
players like Ramsey and Chambo already.Its pissing me off.Why do nt they just leave they would have been far better
players.Its a shame they are with arsenal where they will almost
always be injured.I remember how i
always defended Szczesny and said he is a good keeper but has some problems.The subjectivity over here is pathetic and is quite a shame.Saying
players are shit ai nt cool.I will like to see any of you try to be a
player and lets see how that turns out.The criticism is funny andis very typical of most arsenal fans.They are not people of their words and they change notion as matches are played.It makes me sick.

Since then his transfers have
always been for larger sums than the Arsenal fans are used to, but I reckon that it's more to do with the prices of
players these days, rather than Wenger's attempt to sign more world
class players.
Don't get me wrong, Aguero is a world
class player who will
always score goals but he has playing on with niggling injuries for most of his career.
English
players are
always over priced, over hyped yet their talent doesn't match the price tag, Sterling is 40mil, Kane 50mill, Berahino 30mil yet we bought a world
class Sanchez for 32mil last summer
I wonder what Arsenal could be with an owner that is a die hard fan,
always in the stands and spends money on
class players year after year to finally compliment this 5 star stadium that we built.
Should this even be a topic?Giroud is a
player of average quality
always surrounded by good players.I just don't get.It's as if only Arsenal fans rate him.This was a
player who was bought to be the leading striker at Arsenal and after his years of failure which many deny he's now become a super sub?How laughable is that.From failure to super sub.If the so called world
class striker we're signing goes out with an injury for about five months who comes in then.It seems to me people lack vision.Why is it
always Giroud Giroud Giroud?After so many seasons people are still debating what souldn't even be debatable.I've lost count of the number of times he's been talked about here.This is the problem with our club.It's just not ruthless.This is a
player who should have been gone long ago but due to him being French he still gets the chances.We won't miss him when he goes and I'd like to see if he'd stand out in a smaller club.

Mourinho did his business early,

Let's get real here.It is very unlikely that ANY professional
player will ever say anything derogatory about a teammate that has just left the club.If Jack had said about Coq - «Grew up playing with him in the Youth Team and have fond memories of a
player they though he had very limited ability he
always gave his all.Very surprised and disappointed the club never invested in a World
Class defensive midfielder that we have quite obviously been lacking for a number of seasons and would no doubt have improved the defensive weakness we have shown over a number of seasons» we would have echoed his thoughts entirely.If he had said about Theo - «A player who should have been so much better than he ended up being.He had everything needed to be a prolific player for our club but I can understand the fans frustrations with his continued lack - lustre performances and total lack of a football brain.I think this is best explained by the managers preference to play a player of such limited ability as Alex Iwobi in front of Theo pretty much says it all» we again would have all nodded our agreement.Although Jack never mentioned Alexis Sanchez I would imagine something along the lines of «If the Manager had not persisted with players with such limited ability such as Francis and Theo and instead bought the world class players needed into the club then Sanchez would still most likely be here.The fans must wonder what the hell goes on at the club as they pay fortunes for the privalage of following our club but it seems the millions generated ends up purchasing a new Texas Ranch for the Owner or in a yearly renumeration of # 9million pounds to our manager&ra

welbeck —
always injured, man u reject perez — not seen much of him but not exactly world
class santi — great
player, just rarely seen.
Unlike many I'm not scared at all if he leaves.You know why?Because I've seen better
players leave the club and seen where we ended up.He's very good and world
class but not as good as many think.Forget stats for a moment and look at his quality.I also hope the mistake of keeping Mr. Hold up at the club would not be made.Here at Arsenal we compromise a lot and we
always ignore the cracks until it's too late.Wait till Lacazette goes for a three or four month injury.Then we'll know we never learn.I hope Bellerin doesn't make this mistake of leaving Arsenal.He has so so much to learn.His game still lacks that something.He needs to know how to maximise his potentials and be consistent.That will only come with more playing time and patience.Arsene should not even think of letting him go as we will have to spend money on a RB and besides we need him.
Ramsey has
always been a
class act, and now he has
class players around him it shows more regularly.
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
I am pissed today hearing about Olivier Giroud three year contract and salary he is earning.That is unfair because Giroud does not deserve it.He has not worked to show that he deserves it.We should look at the quality snd output of our
players before paying them.Well its too late now so we should look forward.We do nt need stats to even tell us that Girouf is usually average for arsenal than good at most times.I would have sold him if i was Wenger because he does not deserve to be leading the line still after 3 years and i doubt he will like to warm the bench.He is very lucky to have Wenger as a coach of arsenal london fc.Arsenal has not moved forward because we think getting rid of
players is a bad thing.We
always hesitate when it comes to selling
players we do nt need.Arsenal need a world
class cf not a world
class cf.Its is time to move forward by addressing our mistakes.Since Van persie left we have needed a cf and ifBenzema is available we need to get rid of who we do nt need so that we move forward.Arsenal do not need Giroud though many may be against my speech.Once the premier league starts and Giroud is our main cf it shows that Wenger has not learnt from his mistakes.Just as we got Cech who to me was a need he needs to just find as a reliable and clinical cf.
The difference between the other squad members trying to prove themselves in this competition is that Jack Wilshere can become a world
class player, injuries aside the lad has never let us down
always gives us 100 % and is creatively phenomenal.
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?
While I agree top
players do nt cost a lot
always, Wenger is not the man in last 7 - 8 years to find world
class gem for a penny.
Lets face it, Mr Wenger and Co. would
always have an excuse for not winning the league, and not dipping into the honey pot to purchase world
class players.
