Liverpool already have
midfield players like Lucas, Lallana, Milner, Wijnaldum, Can and captain Henderson.
we need to change formations but wenger is so fking stubborn he wont do it just becuz we have a bunch of little
midfield players like santi, ozil, jack, ramsey, rosicky and they all need to play.
I think we will also need a more disruptive dominating
midfield player like Kante or Matic or Wanayama, the 3 at the back sytem reallt needs that type of player.
Additional
midfield player like Cavalho is needed to partner Xhaka.
In an ideal world we have two DM with forward going abilities (which are limited for Coquelin) so we can play real wingers on both sides of the pitch and don't have to deploy a central
midfield player like Ramsey who neither has the natural instincts of a winger nor the the burst of speed.
Not exact matches
There is plenty of pace in that Arsenal attack and I
like the balance of having Xhaka and Coquelin as well as Ozil in
midfield, so now our manager has done his bit, can the Arsenal
players do theirs?
Walcott should not start as a first teamer he is a bench
player I'd rather have the ox there with sanchez on the other wing.As for the central
midfielders I'd
like to see xhaka with cazorla with ozil just behind giroud.I won't be able to see the match but i hope we win or else its curtains for another title challenge: -LRB-
And due to wenger insistence of playing and stating them ahead of other better
player (
like cazarola, roisky, in
midfield and campbell, podolski on wings), and maaking other
players play out of position (Ozil on wings) to accommodate «British core», the result is everyone to see.....
No real steel in the
midfield, our
players were pushed over
like traffic cones today and I'm sorry to say this but Mertesacker needs to go he is far too slow.
Like I always say, there are certain
players that can fit into Wenger's philosophy but he fails to get those kinda players IMHO Players that have excellent technicality ala Cazorla both in defence, midfield and attack especially midfield so the failure is in identifying and getting the right players for the

iwobi on Wolcott as winger will not work for a whole season team on there manager will figure how to defend against us very easily because they both come into the middle not on the outside so there no space for the other
midfield to work
players like.
Another factor that adds to the credibility of the story is that Lemina is Wenger's kind of
player — a technically gifted and versatile
midfielder who
likes to sit back and conduct the game from the middle of the park.
With the
midfield we have and without a superstar
player that overshadows everyone in the squad
like Ronaldo does at Madrid, Giroud should be scoring a lot more.
Of note he has started to make space in the
midfield by asking Campbell to find a new team, another
player who is far better than the english core, but will not be given the time to grow, as the
likes of Ramsay, Wilshere, Walcott and Chamberlain,, even to the detriment of the team position in the league, such a tragedy
The obvious one is that we simply do not need any wide
players with the
likes of Alexis Sanchez, Theo Walcott, Danny Welbeck, Alex Oxlade - Chamberlain and also the
midfielders like Wilshere and Ozil before you even get to young Gunners
like Gnabry, Iwobi and all in the squad.
I personally don't see Arsenal beating City not because we can't but because the central
midfield area is not reliable.A
player like Coquelin must start tomorrow in place of Xhaka who can't defend.I would rather we changed our formation to 4 -2-3-1.
Campbell is better
player than Theo, he run forward and backward to support the
midfield, it must be a personal with Wenger.i got the impression Wenger does not
like a threat or someone to challenge him at any cost.There are few
players that should have been sold and use the money to buy a couple of
players.We lost on Kanye, ibramovitch, Bailey, and a few others, simply refuse to pay market value.
We need at least five quality
players a defender, goalkeeper, a defensive
midfielder, a attacking
midfielder and a striker Though winning the f.a cup did take a bit of pressure of him only time will tell There got to be a new structure at the club, and get rid of the also rans
like Lucas Perez, Jenkinson, debuchy and sagono for starters
«I'd
like to see Wayne develop into a
midfield player because he can play a little bit
like Paul Scholes did.
Still, just 18, the Blackburn
player has proved himself a capable performer in both central defence and as a holding
midfielder — and has kept the
likes of Didier Drogba quiet in his eighteen Premier League appearances.
Once again though, Arsenal fans were not too hard on our former captain, as Wenger had the option to buy him back but chose not to, mainly because we now had a number of
players like Cazorla, Ramsey and Ozil in the centre of
midfield.
We have the best
midfielders EPL and I would go and say outfield
players too but we are not using them properly MR Wenger do sent change tactics to suit opponents and never seems to want to change tactics during a match he
likes to play safe and sates comfortably converting with his assistance with nothing much than calm sometimes it back fires with losing by 8 goals and that is what drives me crazy with MR Wenger
Beside Sanchez we do nt have much
players that are able to shoot and atleast get decent shots on target from outside the box,
Like De Bryne, Yaya, Hazard, Mahrez, Payet etc...
Midfielders but they are able to get a goal when strikers are tied down.
We need a world class
player like Cazorla in the back of Central
midfield and someone who can push Ozil.
Of course we had the priceless advantage of having real men play for us instead of little timid and afraid children in defence and especially in
midfield or attack
like Ozil, Walcott and all the other serail coasters who have made a rich living under their benevolent Uncle Arsene, who indulges their timidity and blames the refs, rather than coward
players.
«Coquelin has done really well but I would
like another holding
midfield player to come in, perhaps a Schneiderlin type of
player.
When it clicks and you have the
likes of Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez in full flow but also functioning as parts of a well oiled machine, the Gunners have the ability to breach any defence and with a strong defensive line and
midfield players who can control a game, there are the ingredients in north London to make a title winning team.
A new manager is the only answer Someone who will sign more top
players who we need ie defensive
midfielder, creative box2box
midfielder, centre backs and looks
like we need another RB to push Bellerin too.
Now Arsenal really needs to strengthen the
midfield area, because we don't have another
player like Cazorla in the squad.
Yes but it needed to be done, whilst it can be argued whether he would be able to produce the same performances he does now in 4 years time, the whole idea i would presume would be to let the younger
midfielders learn from such a talented individual now with the eventual hope that they would be able to surpass or perhaps match his ability, plus its always a good thing to have experienced
players of such calibre around the squad,
like barca with Xavi he may not be able to perform to the level he was in his heyday, but every once an again produces a moment of magic when you need it on account of the experience.
(he was monaco's stand out
player for me in both legs the way he just single handedly had a grip on our
midfield he is a man mountain
like toure / veiera he has really impressed me every time we have played monaco in last few years should be diaby replacement.
I'd rather sign a
player who played
like Henry or Ian Wright and have a
player like Kante in our
midfield.
Arsenal need to improve by getting
midfielders and defenders with better quality, not
players with the same quality
like the ones that we already have.
The two deep
midfielder positions in the 3 -4-2-1 require hardworking, strong and mobile
players,
like Kante or Casemiro.
With the
likes of Coquelin, Xhaka, Elneny and hopefully Cazorla competing for those
midfield spots you could say that the always attack minded Welshman is a bit of a luxury
player whose impact off the bench could be more than from the start, don't you think?
Bottom line, if he is angered bench the
players who were not good enough and play those who deserve some game time based on the Southampton game or on games where they had a positive impact: - Take Özil out and play Ox in the hole (he has to understand your the highest paid
player of the club, your given freedom
like nobody else and your even seeking even more money with a new contract you can't play
like that ever and go AWOL)- Put Sanchez on the wing or up top but put Welbeck in (Walcott didn't track back near enough for the Alsonso goal)- Iwobi has been bright from the wing let him play there - Xhaka has to go back in the holding
midfield role and I would take out Coquelin because he could've taken a foul on the hazard's goal.
Natural
midfield players who
like to play in the middle but have been moved around by Wenger in strange experiments:
I only wish to focus on those who can play in the CF position (as that's what everyone's getting bent out of shape about) but it is clear we have wide
players who can score and we have
players who can do so from
midfield, some of whom are still developing —
like Wilshere, Ramsay, the Ox — and from whom most of expect to see more and more this season.
Their key
player would be Toure, he can drive through the
midfield phsyicallly with the ball
like no one else in either side.
Next year we should probably let someone
like Rosicky go and pick up a new squad
player for
midfield, or promote a youngster.
You could even say that we don't really have a concrete centre - forward any more, as while Sanchez is moving back into
midfield to get the ball, then other
players like Walcott, Ozil and the Oz are moving into the centre to replace him,
like a rotating diamond formation.
Jesus... Ramsey is the most backward and lateral passer of a ball I have seen in a
midfielder and that's when he has control of the ball which is not that frequent as his close control is hardly a strong point... So that leaves running in to box scoring occasionally and then believing he is a striker...
Like I said attributes of a bench
player
But buddy, wen get picks the
players, weber buts the
players (or not as has been seen recently) weber sticks with those
players when
like Ozil last night, they don't perform, so yea the
players didn't do what they should have BUT it's wen gers fault that we didn't have a mire clinical finisher up front who would have put away the chances that group missed, it's wengers fault that Arteta and canola were Un able to play the defensive
midfield role; it's wengers fault that he didn't buy backup for coquellin.
Both clubs are in the market for new attacking
midfield players this summer, with United in particular desperate to strengthen after a highly disappointing campaign this year, and with the
likes of Nani, Ashley Young and Antonio Valencia all badly under - performing.
Mahrez and Turan are just
like every other
player in our
midfield so unless Wenger is going to buy them as replacements for Ozil, Sanchez, Wilshere, Walcott etc. then I don't think we need them.
Looking at the fact that we are set to lose three forwards and a couple of
midfielders, I really think Wenger should be looking at
players like Pedro Rodriguez, Marco Reus, Geoffrey Kondogbia and Morgan Schneiderlin.
It's difficult to blame Ozil for the difficulties he's faced at Arsenal without looking at the big picture...
like the fans, he too was lied to by Wenger... there is no doubt in my mind that he was told by Wenger that he was trying desperately to recreate our earlier success by acquiring
players that fit the system he ran when Henry was in his prime... as we know this hasn't happened... in order for Ozl to flourish he needs some speed up front, forwards that can make intelligent runs, a boss in the
midfield to compensate for his obvious defensive liabilities and defenders who can transition from defence to offence quickly and efficiently... much
like he had in Real and with the German National squad... unfortunately he ended up on a squad that has a striker who plays with his back to goal, very few intelligent runs into the box, minus Sanchez, no one to take pressure off him in the
midfield, once Cazorla was injured, average defensive
midfielders around him, which simply highlighted his lacking defensive qualities and defenders who lack the necessary cutting edge when it comes to transitional passing... instead of blaming Ozil, which is simply too easy, especially considering his mopey disposition, we should be asking ownership and / or Wenger why they brought him in if they didn't intend on doing what was necessary to get the best from him... can you imagine Ozil playing with the
likes of Henry, Viera, Petit and Pires, it would be incredibly to watch and even more difficult to stop... so the only thing different between his experiences in Real and with the German team versus his time at Arsenal are the
players around him and we all know who is in charge of making those decisions, the Grinch who stole soccer
Arsenal can rectify their central
midfield problem by getting a versatile and skillful
player like him, but I don't think he is worth 100 millions.
In Central
midfield we continue to ask for more
players even when we have the
likes of Xhaka, Ramsey, Wilshere and even young emerging talent.
Of course, losing wingers Robben and Ribery will have forced his hand slightly here, but it still shows a lack of a Plan B that Pep couldn't bring out a similar threat from other
players like Gotze and Muller, who can both play wide, or indeed use Lahm in his preferred position of right - back and utilise his quality from there — in fact, the former Germany captain's use as a
midfielder since this manager's arrival is one of many examples of his attempts at tactical innovation going wrong.
