but, im ok with this vardy transfer... it shows us many things: 1) wenger is changing, something some of us have been demanding for a long time; 2) it shows that wenger is taking risks: think about it, he is buying a men for a not cheap price, knowing he could not
getting anything after, with a future sell i mean... this is an act that shows wengers intentions to win something, the buy is not motivated by any financial or economic reason but only for a «
get the f epl once again» reason... this is an act that shows us hungry, even if we fail, we could said we try...
first ever, we really try; 3) finally but very important... vardy is the kind of player we need... he is a warrior, a fighter... he has character... look
at how he celebrate his
goals... full of energy... he, like alexis, can motivate the team when the things are not going in our way (something wenger cant do because of his age and because he has never been an active coach on the pitch)... the vardy transfer, if it finish well, is a demostration of a change, and a good one... lets take care of winning things and do nt look the economic side for once... vardy is a bit old, but we can give a chance to welbeck after maybe, or akpom... u are not thinking about the future when we talk about ibra... guys: u complain when wenger do nt spend or because he is always looking for the bargain when u are the guys who has to pay the very expensive tickets... u complain when wenger buy the always for the future guy... like morata... stop to complain for everything and be consequent with yourself... i would love auba, but it is not going to happen... lukaku is awesome but the asking price is stupid... lets try with vardy, give us the throphy..

getting us the
goal that delivered us our
first point again Man Utd
at Old Trafford, he did nothing for us.

first three or four seasons
at arsenal were quite disappointing saw glimpses of what he was capable of but always seemed to struggle then I think he stepped his game up and had a couple of better seasons 2012 - 13 season he was brilliant 21

getting the
goals he
got the previous seasons had a bit of an injury then looked better than ever for a short period before his injury.
when chambers is in there he does nt trust him enough so he runs out of position trying to cover spots Koscielny would be covering n
gets caught out, Debuchy is stronger has abit of pace and very good in the air Merts trusts him and his experience that is the same for Monreal id start Monreal or Debuchy ahead of Chambers although he is impressive for his age we shouldnt be putting all our trust into a 19 year old in that position look

first goal for captain Wayne Rooney.
Nervous start — usual criticism
at the beginning of the season, with the lack of spending Ramsey's
first blood — Arsenal shocked the league, we played brilliant football, scoring beautiful
goals, all seemed like a decent season for us Coq red card — injury crisis struck, the lack of bench depth put pressure on the team, the downfall of performance caused crucial points Alexis»
goal when down to ten men - it all seemed like arsenal would lose out in the title race again but arsenal somehow surprised the league again, saying aye we
got the quality but we just ai nt gonna show in week in week out Draw in NLD with 10 men — can't really complain about it but you ain't happy.

Bellerin is fast becoming one of my favorite players in the gunners squad, thought we were doomed for sure when Gomis went racing through and then
got around Cech in the

at a different result if we had gone a
goal down in the
first half!

At first i thought the writer intended to write about Emmanuel Petit as he is a pundit for SuperSport but when i discovered it Adebayo his real name (Source from Nigeria and not Adebayor) it becomes even clear the more reason i should care less about whatsoever he's got to say about Arsenal but trying to compare his stats is the height of ridicule i can imagine not forgetting his goal ratio to chances on goal at the service of Cesc eta

at first in a new league
Two quick
goals at some point in the
first half would also startle them if we don't
get the early
goal.
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 hope we don't try to play the defensive game because they are dangerous in and around our box, they were unlucky not to score one or two more
goals in the
first leg
at Emirates and if they find their confidence with home advantage and their fans
getting behind them it could be curtains for us, i don't think they will allow us the same space as they did last week so lets take the game to them early and keep the ball in their half with high possession,
He did score a fantastic four in one game
at the pre-season Emirates Cup and had a
goal incorrectly disallowed last season, but until he does register that
first goal, Sanogo needs all the confidence boosts he can
get.
But our
first obstacle is to
get past Monaco, who were considered one of the easiest draws in the competition
at the time, but, like Arsenal, they have improved rapidly recently, and are currently on an unbeaten run of 14 games in row in which they have only conceded ONE
goal in regulation time (in a 1 - 1 draw away
at Ligue 1 leaders Lyon in the middle of December).
My prediction... We will defend our
goal longer than man utd... After that it's anyone's guess... elneny and xhaka not a confidence booster but i think both defences can be
got at it all depends on who buckles
first
But the kind of header he scored for the
first goal [
at Olympiacos], you do not
get so much credit.
I'm I da only one watching Utd beating Leicester
first they

We only had to hold on for another ten minutes and the game just petered out to the finalwhistle, and
at last Arsenal
got their comfortable win, Cech
got his 200th clean sheet and a
first ever penalty save for us, and we have scored our 1002nd EPL
goal.
even when he suffered a serious knee injury, instead of accepting the fact that he would never stick his legs into the spaces that were crucial for someone with straight ahead speed to succeed, the club actually contemplated giving him a chance to play up top where his lack of physicality, size and holding up play talents would been on display for all to see... these are not the actions of a club that really cares about winning
at the highest levels, but they are the actions of a club that wasn't interested in spending the necessary resources to purchases a world - class striker, which is usually the most expensive position on the pitch... instead we adopted the horrible phrase «like a new signing» and proceeded to allow this ridiculous experiment to carry on, which ultimately caused some discomfort on the training pitch and inside the locker room as players battled for a position that shouldn't have been theirs for the taking in the
first place... don't
get me wrong, I believe that Walcott is a talented player, who can help a team reach their
goals, if their
goals are relatively modest... just look
at the teams who supposedly expressed interest in his services and they weren't the kind of clubs who aspire to win
at the highest levels... as for the reasons why he hasn't been bitching and moaning about moving on just look
at the wage benefits he receives from our club and his obvious desire to enjoy the societal advantages that come with playing in North London for a club with worldwide appeal... so instead of continuing to try to fix a coat with a broken zipper simply move on and buy a new and better coat
They
got dominated for the
first 20 mins and
got a
goal against the run of play, then they played well for 25 mins and then did f*ck all for the remaining 45 mins especially the last 20 when they couldnt even

at the emirates.
