What was originally
known as the single player modes and the multiplayer modes in previous games will each get their very own game for two different systems this time around.
Not exact matches
But only Bould
knows for sure and if the zonal or mixed marking system is that vague and confusing
as you also suggest, then that also confuses the issue of which
single player was at fault and needs to improve — it is a only confusion.
Alex Oxlade - Chamberlain is one
player who has played every
single minute of our three outings so far this term, although starting
as a left wing - back, which has forced new signing Sead Kolasinac into the back - three, and I have a feeling this is
known not to be the best option.
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
The reality is that both AOB and AKB have valid points... at the end we won't fully
know what's going on inside the club 100 % unless your a board member but most likely won't be allowed to expand yourself... that being said
singling out Wenger the way it's done is simply not right... the board, the manager & the
players all should share the blame for what's happening that is all and YES winning trophies when that hasn't been the case for a LT is progress... not
as much
as you and myself would like but it is what it is!!
Now I think there is still reasons to be cheerful, I agree Man C & Chelski have spent & bought some good
players, we all understand that 5 of those teams might be in the CL proper which is a huge distraction for those 4 - 5 teams.Chelsea will not be able to field the same 13 - 14
players all season,
as for Man C they were very frail at the back last season, add to that 2 flying wing backs and I'm not sure they will be any better this coming season.LFC will most probably have CL as well if they qualify and haven't exactly bought great players apart from Salah who could be a good aquasistion for them.Spuds have sold a good player & strengthened a rival & still not bought a single player yet, Man U have bought 2 good players & in Lukaku have a proven goal scorer in the PL but if they play the same dour way they did last season & with the added games the CL brings will they perform week in week out in the league??? As for Everton yes they have released a lot of players and also brought in a lot too to give better quality in the squad as they have Europa league the same as US the big difference is I think we will play squad players & youngsters maybe with a few senior players all the way up to the QF This tells me most of our rivals will pave the way for us to field pretty much the same side every weekend in the PL thus giving us an advantage over all the other 5 teams playing in the CL & Europa, just remember the League has been won in the last 2 seasons by teams NOT in Europe YES we are this season but I think Wenger will put all his eggs in the League basket and field an under strength side in all comps hence focusing on the League until we are no longer in the rac

Arsene Wenger does like a bargain,
as every Arsenal fan
knows all too well, and getting a quality
player without having to pay a
single penny, or Eurp
as the case may be, in transfer fees is certainly a bargain, so I reckon that the Arsenal boss will be having a good long think about the news, reported by the Spanish Catalan sports paper Sport that FC Barcelona are willing to let their Turkish international Arda Turan go for nothing.
we always sell our best
players, has been a norm at Arsenal, leaving behind the «yes boss» ones that don't question a
single thing
as long the account gets full at the end of the week
no matter if they played or not, or if they played well or not, they don't care..
Yes this is the beginning of the end of lè prof even the Akbs
know its finally happening, we need a fighter someone like Diego simeone that guy can squeeze every
single energy out any
player rarely sits down always giving instructions to his
players on the touchline & moving up and down thats realy hilarious.we tired of this bullsh*t 4th position yearly trophy, loaning any injured
player (who da hell does dat), playing underperfmng individuals, playing a short lb
as a cb huh?
i'll be honest, i'll be gutted if we go out tonight.when you look at the teams left in the carling cup only man utd & villa possibly stand in our way from winning it.i honestly reckon that if it was an arsenal v man utd final every
single arsenal fan would be up for it, i
know i would.the good thing is
as well the carling cup final is in feb and winning it could give huge confidence to the squad especially if we are in contention for the other trophies.the biggest thing that worries me is injuries to key
players, but imagine arsenal parading the cup at wembley and every one of those
players having a winners medal on their sideboard, the team's belief would be an all - time high.while i agree with you that the 3 other trophies are more important, but don't you think it was great to hear wenger being positive.i thought it sent out a message of intent and belief although we all
know it's difficult winning one trophy besides 4.
Those were two tough games, two tough fixtures which Blackburn picked four points from and that should build some confidence bridges for the Blackburn
players as they head across to Turf Moor in a fixture every

Deeply agree with you guys, where is Arsenal team we used to watch???? Where in the world is it???? Really really desapointed.I think this is the worse Arsenal team Ive ever seen.i
know these guys are talented but may be AW worship them so much
as stars so that they spend their time with Chicks and do nt have the force to fight on the pitch anymore.No encouragement from the coach, nor the assistant.Arsenal only thinks about making money, forcing the fans to support these young
players, focusing on the idea of producing stars and sell them afterward but not buying stars to win games.I was really pssd off when I watch the Liverpool game agst hull city, Both teams were so alive and all strong during the game, fast play, pass accuracy, dynamism, combativity, never give up minded on evry
single minute they fought for the ball.ManU had a draw today but You could see that they were fighting till the end.I do nt
know WHAT DID WE DO TO WIN AGST MANU AND CHELSKI?????.
Its hard to believe that manu lost 6 - 1 to man city, take nothing away from man city but every club uses manu
as a measuring stick to compare themselves too, I really wish it was arsenal that gave that drubbing, I remember not long ago I was watching arsenal lose to manu by that you
know what scoreline and my father (a manu fan) walk away, when it was 3 something becoz he couldn't watch a far one sided match, so I guess he is feeling what we are feeling that day, manu is always a side that neva lose by a huge margin
no matter what, but tell you da truth I don't like man city becoz I do nt like a side that will spend and replace every
single player and still have classy
players on the bench, they can say that we won that and this but that becoz of the huge wages that we are paid, I just don't like football to be won by having money to spend there should be a mixture of everything good, middle and work in progress
players.
