El Neny is decent as a CM and is best suited to a 3 -
man midfield where 2 CM's hold.

In leading the Wolverines to that shock November upset of Ohio State at the Big House, Harbaugh looked every inch a Michigan
Man — and every inch the Michelin
Man — as he shook hands with Urban Meyer at
midfield,
where the Buckeyes» coach couldn't resist asking, «What's your deal?»
the only reason le coq won, t be back in the first xi straight away is that wenger won't rush him back and make sure he has fully recovered which we can afford to do now with xhaka in the team but as soon as wenger thinks he, s fully fit no doubt he will be one of the first names on the team sheet, i also agree against certain teams
where we expect to be dominated in
midfield (against
man city) le coq / xhaka could be a good option!!
After seeing a couple of games
where he featured and also the one for england he's got it all for me... 1) He has the physical ability to offer the kind of game that our Giroud offers (back to the net: deflecting, relaying passes and 1 - 2 touches) but also 2) Pace, mobility and technical agility to offer so much more: dribbling past opponents (creating space), running / turning over defences either to lay down the killing pass to a better placed player or finishing a through ball from our over talented
midfield and all that with speed and 3) Tactical awareness, willingness to defend players if asked (like the game
Man U-Real Madrid in the CL) and could provide support not only in the air on corners!!
in a 4:3:3 formation
where we use a three
man midfield of Wilshere Coquelin Xhaka... and our back four shld be a combination of Kolasinac Koscielny Mustafi Bellerin and Cech d GK #MYOPINION # WE SHLD JUST TRY TO DO WITHOUT OZIL IN OUR FORMATION AND LETS SEE HOW IT GOES
@TH14atl the list of the players you gave me were players who were naturally central
midfielders but could play in cmf position and you also gave me no 10's who could also play cmf so i do not get your take.However did you see that they were being played in their best positions.I am also against Ramsey on the wing but i will not be blinded by the fact that if he should be put in box to box role he will be better than santi in that role.But from what you said i think we might just sell cant we.Have you forgotten the
man utd match last season
where peeps were like O!
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
OK since we are back to being positive minded cules, I must say I for one am in complete support of valverde, The
man has players like paulinho, denis, rakitic, etc in fact almost all the players bar lamasia players and few signings are suited to the direct style of play
where midfielders are by Stander's, paulinho is useless in possession he is perfect for wreaking havoc but not good to play in a Barca
midfield.
Well im not in a wonderland he has his failings as we all do and great teams find a way to win good teams sit
where we are 6 -5-4 but thats besides the point and it would be nice if your aunty had bolocks cause then we d be second but ive watched the games were an offensive team most the time although were terrible in the pissing rain but for the most part the game plans have worked weve created chances quality scoring chances one after the other problem is for me the finishing unless we sit back with 9
man behind the ball or ten when you push forward you will give up a goal if you lousy forwards fail to finish the set ups have been there this year but our strikers have failed to kill the games if we create quality chances and grab leads in the first 60 minutes like we have for the most part and in those games those games should of been killed even if we give a goal or two alongside the strategy but we failed to hit multiple should be goals we tried laca we'll see abou auba although hes a bit lazy so far but we'll see but we've lacked that quality in front goal a player the chances have been there im looking at the failure of the strikers and maybe that is his fault but monreal has scored as many goals recently as our strikers and thats sad our defenders or a
midfielder will score and our stikers cant tally one in th first 60 mins of a game alongside them then were tired for last 40 give them hope there still only down one and we rue our missed chances while they push thats
where iv been frustrated with this season not the tactics but the finishing
i feel he had a good game, and
where CP thought they could easily mark our
midfield men, there was always that extra

The Board is only interested in money not trophies they figure they have enough in the cabinet, Ridiculous wenger is only interested in his legacy, he wants to say he did it his way and he won the EPL and the CL, but this is
where his legacy is distorted, his teams that he creates for the last couple years has played with HANDICAPs, several deficiencies compared compared to precious teams he created, the main failings is the frail
midfielders he has taken a loving to, while in previous years if he had frail players in the
midfield, he also had
man mountains who could do the defensive work in the middle of the park.
last night i saw on Sky sports Jamie Carragher show / demonstrate an interesting flaw Arsenals game there was huge gap between our attacking and defense at least 20 yards
where no
man land which allowed the opposition to counter attack with no resistance until well in to our own half our defense overwhelmed and on back foot while our
midfield and attackers still in oppositions half, the reason we are better then last year is because of Coq and rapid speed of Belerin saved us but what with Coq out Ramsy loving being a forward we will have problems tomorrow night with the Greeks who love to counter attack, someone has to drop back when Ramsy is on his attack ’s

man - of - the - match on his début against Valencia,

While Mourinho complained that his players had failed to follow his instructions not to play «first station passes» into the zone between their defence and
