Not exact matches
There have been a few debates regarding which young players who could
make the move from the Arsenal
under 21's
to the
first team for next season, and whilst the likes of Jon Toral may have been mentioned as a likely candidate, Iwobi will most certainly be well in Wenger's view for next season.
Firstly, United could compete with Chelsea for the signing of # 70m Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba, who left Old Trafford for free earlier in his career after failing
to make the
first -
team under Sir Alex Ferguson.
The effectiveness of the Arsenal academy has been
under question in recent years, with many of our graduates failing
to make the grade and move on, but if Coquelin keeps it up he will have given it a massive boost and will join the likes of Wilshere, Gibbs, Szczesny and Bellerin in the current
first team.
Having
made his
first -
team debut at the age of just 15, the defensive midfielder has continued

first -
team squad

I would not eqbt
to see that match... sure walcott can take the place of alexis when the second has been more important for us in 3 years than the
first in 10 years... im not ok with alexis attitude yesterday but u do nt know if that was because he was sustituted... maybe he was not ok with his performance or he want mire goals, and thats ok for me, that attituted u will never see in theo because he born here
under wenger and he is ok with his wages that he do nt deserve and being 4th... im ok with alexis attitud in boros game, because a draw was not enought for arsenal, and im ok with him when he ask for the salary he does diserve... for me he is one of the best in the epl, maybe the best, and without any question who
makes things happen in our
team... he deserves 200 or 250k a week more than any in our
team, even moseur wenger... ozil deserve 180k only because he is going up with his performances and have show more attitud than ever... ur famous theo deserve 80k or go and play at west ham
The Dutchman took over at United in the summer, and has
made a great number of changes
to the
first -
team squad at Old Trafford, offloading some
under - performers and spending big money on some exciting high - profile names such as Angel Di Maria and Radamel Falcao.
Mertz should never have been our captain in the
first place... who has ever heard of a
team that
makes 11th hour transfer buys (Arteta & Mertz) then seemingly places those same individuals into prominent leadership positions from the get - go... indicative of the problems that have permeated our clubhouse for the better part of 7 years
under the Kroenke & Wenger... what is wrong with the players chosen and / or the management style of Wenger that doesn't develop and / or encourage strong leadership from within... Mertz was the fine collecting lackey from year one... this is what happens when you don't get world - class players because many times they want
to have a voice on and off the pitch and this can't happen when you play for a fragile manager who has developed a coddling wage structure where everyone is rewarded for simply wearing the shirt and participating in the process... not enough balance between performance and pay, combined with the obvious favoritism shown
to some players regardless of their glaring lack of production... remember that Ramsey has played in positions that
make no sense considering his skill - set (out wide) and has forced other players off the field or into equally unfamiliar positions with little or no justification (let's remember when you read articles about how Ramsey's goals this upcoming season being the potential X-factor for our success that this is the same individual who didn't score a goal until the final week last season)... this of course is just one example of many... before I hear another word from Mertz I want this club
to address the fact that no former player of any real consequence has any important role in the management structure of this club, yet several former Gunners have expressed serious interest in just such an endeavor (Henry, Viera, Adams, Bergkamp... just
to name a few legends)... there is only one answer: an extremely insecure manager!!!
The young goalkeeper has been
under the watchful eyes of Europe's most prestigious clubs since breaking into the
first -
team last season as a 16 year - old, and at 18, is already looking
to make the jump
to a bigger side.
The Belgian international, who
made a terrific impression upon being introduced
to the
first -
team setup last season, has seemingly fallen out of favour
under new manager Louis van Gaal this season, and may now be farmed out on loan in the new year.
He should have either been
made under 21 manager (he would be much better than steve gatting who seems
to lose most games these days) or midfield coach
to the
first team.
While the circumstances that had put Arsenal and Arsene Wenger
under serious pressure meant that the manager felt he could not select his usual
team full of young Gunners for our
first Capital One Cup game of the season, Wenger still
made many changes
to the Arsenal starting line up.
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
Nolito found his
first team opportunities limited last season
under Guardiola, as the winger was only able
to make 19 league appearances, scoring four and assisting two, as City scraped third over rivals Liverpool.
Arsenal fans will be hoping
to see the back of him, and as he surely has no future in the
first -
team plans of Wenger, a late compromise could see him
make the move
to the KC Stadium, where he would be reunited with his former manager Steve Bruce, whom he played
under in a loan spell at Birmingham City.

making the transition from the
Under 21's

Off topic anyone notice how ozil was used on the left wing last season and the
first part of this season and he was
under performing fans and pundits were all saying how wenger should build the
team around ozil since that was his best position and he cost us 42m well since his return he has only played either cam or right wing (he said in a interview that those were his fav positions since he played them at real) taking the place of an in form cazorla and it all seems
to work I think wenger has done this all on purpose because if u look at ozils overall performance after his injury its much better than before, he tackles, wins the ball back and covers more distance than anyone else wenger does this often using players out of position for a while only
to make their overall game better and mostly it works genius
Tom Cleverley is enjoying the taste of regular
first team action at Aston Villa and Man United will demand around # 8m for the move
to the Midlands outfit
to be
made permanent though a lot could well depend on the ongoing situation
under current owner Randy Lerner, with some sources claiming that American is looking
to sell the club.
One wonders what the future holds for the wide man, he has the ability

not really
making the news, the atmosphere on last wednesday was really strange, silent, step by step
to normal football, but you can't throw away your thoughts immediately, I just got a glimpse of Enkes personality during a film of him shown before the match, I can't realize how hard it must be for his wife
to lose him, tomorrow the players of Germans
first Bundesliga will wear a black ribbon again, but I think it won't affect the atmosphere like it has with the national
team despite of Hannover of course, people will be enthousiastic again, but there is the idea of an «Enke donation» which I like, will keep his name alive, will take some positive emotions on this tragedy and a kind of appeal for everyone
to reflect the important things of life and control your own behaviour, I hope so at least, and I hope his wife will cope with that situation, and again: it was really hard for the German nationl
team to play
under these circumstances,
to lose someone close in this way is hard
to deal with, on the other hand it causes a close solidarity feeling I think, but of course the world will not change, things are returning
to the old soon, but nonetheless for me this tragedy is a kind of human wake - up call, at least a call and then you continue
