Our defence is so abysmal, forget strikers for now,
mertesackers position in the team is nothing short of chest on show by Simon cowell!

If Wenger is consistent and willing to observe the weaknesses of his own
team in this context, he should resplce both
Mertesacker and Giroud, since both players a way too slow for the
position.
The problem is, Koscielny is a nailed down starter, so he goes straight back
in the
team when fit, which most likely means Gabriel dropping to the bench as
Mertesacker does seem to be one of Wenger's favourites (and they always play, even if it has to be
in completely the wrong
position... they'll play).
Mertesacker said himself that he can't handle the
position in the
team any more, from a physical perspective.
The reason why We struggle against
teams that presses is because
mertesacker cant do a Pique, koscieny sometimes do got caught out because of the risk
in doing that, he is good at bringing the ball out from defense and lauching attacks from his
position, having Gabriel beside him will neutralise the threat coming from
teams that presses because Gabriel too is comfortable on the ball unlike the immobile Rhino per.
than Ozil when both are inform and is Ramsey not a better box to box player than Cazorla when both are inform and do not even deny even if you have your own opinion.Why not put Cazorla
in Ozil's
position and put Ramsey
in the box to box
position where he plays best.Can you imagine Giroud on the wings and
Mertesacker at right back.I for one still stand by my word that Ramsey is a better box to box player than Cazorla yet peeps will deny.Which
position did Ramsey play when he was at his best some seasons ago.To me he is better than him
in that role.I remember the man utd match last season yh.Also Cazorla can do anything Ozil can do and do it better including shooting.I mean what is this we are not accepting the realities of the
team but we ourselves are forging our favourites into the
team.Do this and you will see we will be better.I just do not get it at allllll.Please share your views on my comment on what you think
Then he must show that he wants to challenge
in the summer by first getting rid of the deadwood (Flamini,
Mertesacker, Ryo, Campbell, Podolski, diaby)... loan out future prospects (Sanogo, Gnarbry, Akpom, Hayden etc) and bring
in quality palyers to replace the needed
positions (CB, DM, LW, ST)... after this he and his fitness and medical
team must show that they have improved the injury crisis that we have... then finally he must show that he can motvate and rotate his squad well and tactically outclass our opponents with good squad selection and game plan.
For me there are only 3
positions in our
team that are open for the fight, that is CB where
mertesacker has a big fight to keep out Gabriel, who is a totally different style of defender.
Ramsey, Cazorla, OX, Coquelin, Walcott and Debuchy, Ozil,
Mertesacker, Koscielny, Monreal, they all failed BUT IF I have to be honest
in how I feel about the past transfers and the current squad I think EVERYONE of these players could not match their
position in the invincibles
team.
Two, due to the lack of width
in midfield, it falls on the wingbacks to provide the width by getting forward
in wide
positions, then on occasions we turn the ball over, the other
teams striker fills that vacant space left by the advanced wingback, forcing Kos or
Mertesacker to go with him — completely shattering any cohesiveness
in the backline.
