Right these «fans» should stop using Ramsey as the scapegoat, it was thanks to him we kept threatening the opposition, he's the only
midfielder that was constantly making runs in the box even more than Walcott and Chambo, yet somehow it's his fault we
play bad?
The guy had a great game v west ham but his ego lets him down, but Wenger his comments on the defensive cock ups, it is the same comments on all the losses so surely he needs to rectify the prob Number one drop the BF German that can't head a ball can't run he is a liability every time he puts on the shirt even Debuchy jumps higher than him Gibbs can't defend he is a nice guy but not first choice L Back Chocqelen has proved he is a good player that can get better what we need is an Ozil type
midfielder that has more guts to
play good balls through to runners not high balls that you hope will find a target So a defender that can defend a left back and a
midfielder and then look out enough is enough on what the problems are If the car won't run
right you Fix it Wenger now is the time to FIX it CB
When Santi went down last season it wasn't his ability to relieve pressure in the
midfield we missed anywhere near as much as his ability to pick up the ball and
play the
right pass quickly and incisively.
Beside the issue of Walcot's contract, Wenger loves his
midfielders and in fairness to him, when we
play Ramsey on the
right, we don't have a lot of movement behind the opposition's defence and we are not as fast as we are when
playing walcot.
Yeah
right as if there is balance in
midfield when he is
playing.
we don't need any more
midfielders we have enough what with Santi Cazorla, Jack Wilshere coming back and what with Alex Iwobi
playing the way he is and its time Theo Walcott started
playing on the
right wing like he use to, so it remains us to concentrate on a WC striker and may be an understudy to Laurent Koscielny / Per Mertesacker
I get your point mate.But in truth Ramsey is the CM and Xhaka is the DM according to our formation anf tactic.It's even debatable if Xhaka is capable of
playing DM.I think Ramsey's tactical awareness is poor but he has every
right to take risks and move into the opposition box.He's a box to box player.The only problem is Ramsey overdoes it.If we had a proper CDM the team would be more balanced.Now it's like we have two CM's
playing in
midfield and due to their poor tactical awareness we're always left exposed.I conclude by reminding people that Wilshere is better footballer and is more intelligent than Xhaka.It'll be better
playing Wilshere and pairing him with a CDM than having Xhaka
play there.He just gets to
play over him becausr we signed him for # 35.

What we got with girouh and welz are different options different styl of
play last yr we didn't have that... trust me when Walcott and ozil come bk wenger wont have a choice but to
play them all...

Why so many articles about Wilshere?Is he a Messi or something we can't live without?Why is this guy so important for Arsenal, what special thinks he did for the team in the last 6 - 7 years?Just because he's a» darling» of supporters?Trying to secure a place in England's team at the expense of Arsenal's players?Trying to secure a good contract before exit?Wolcott's name come to mind, he was
playing good only before contract renewal.At least he was scoring goals.Wilshere?Fe w goals in a 10 years Arsenal career.Where is the lost if this guy do the
right thing and leave?we lose nothing.Good luck to you, Wilshere, but you are not good enough and are taking the place for a real
midfielder (Max Meyer's name just popping up).
We are so undisciplined in our
play, we just attack with no thought about being countered, the Left backs,
Right backs ans wingers all attack at the same time, the attacking
midfielders all push up at the same time and don't seem to have any sensing of opposition danger..
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.

right and wan na take a shot.

midfield We won't get quality because he won't pay the price, simple as.
Ultimately, I think he could
play where Ramseys been filling in on the
right side of
midfield.
On Loan * Akpom (depends on our striker buy) * Crowley (he needs to step up and fulfill his potential) * Zelalem (had hot and cold season with Glasgow, would be great if he can be loaned out another year) * Maintland - Niles (hot and cold too, plus we are packed on the
right) * Bielik (lets see what he is made of) * Glen Kamara (
Midfielder that is 21, it is a loan or he will be sold) * Stefan O'Connor * Mavididi (goes on loan so Malen can
play first role in U21)
I thought when he was coming through he looked like he could nail down a
right midfield position, and looked a bit like Parlour with a bit more cleverness to his attacking
play, but I don't think he's ever fully adjusted to
playing CM in the 4 -3-3 formation.
The North London club have inherited a supremely talented and versatile player, capable of
playing right across the
midfield.
In the
midfield, (including RWB & LWB) we have a whole bunch of tweeners... none offer the full package, none make sense in our manager's current favourite formation, except for Sead on the left and Ox on the
right, and all of them have never shown any consistency for more than a heartbeat... Sead, who I'm including in this category because of our present formation, looks like a positive addition, minus his occasional brain farts, but I would rather see what he could do in a back 4 before making my mind up... Ox, who has never
played better, which isn't saying much considering his largely underwhelming
play in previous seasons, seems to have found a home in this new formation; unfortunately, can we really expect this oft - injured player to handle the taxing duties that come with said position over the long haul, not to mention, it looks like he has no intention of staying... Ramsey has relied on the empathy that stems from his gruesome injury years ago and the excitement that was generated a few years back when he finally seemed to put in altogether, but on the whole he has been a big disappointment (neither he nor the Ox have scored enough to warrant a regular spot)... Wiltshire should be put on a weekly contract then
played until he suffers his first injury, if and when that occurs he should be shipped - out and no one should very be allowed to say his name on club grounds ever again... Elnehy & Coq are average players who couldn't make any of the top 7 teams currently in the EPL... both have showed some great energy on the pitch, but neither are top quality and no good team can afford to have that many average players on their bench
playing the same position, especially with Coq's injury history / discipline concerns and Elheny's headless chicken tendencies... as for Xhaka, his tenure here so far has been incredibly underwhelming... we know he has some skills to provide the long ball but his defensive work is piss poor and he gives the ball away too cheaply and far too often... finally, the enigma himself, Ozil, so much skill with his left foot but his presence has been more frustrating than uplifting... in many respects his failure has been directly related to the failure of this club to provide him with the necessary players up front, minus Sanchez of course, and unless something drastic happens very soon his legacy will be largely a negative one (much like Wenger's)
Nasri
played there and was successful and effective I think Mr wenger is trying to mold him that way Football is a game and can be manipulated in many ways one being 442 perhaps he is better suited in that formation in the
right midfield but not as a winger so maybe he should share carzolas job I do nt know I am not MR Wnger and I have not been out to a training session to judge
Iwobi is the best attacking
midfielder we have, he is the only player that can
play him self out of trouble from tight corners, in fact he is the only player in arsenal
right now that I have confidence in that can dribble well at the same time pass well.
Rw?we've got Walcott, the Ox and Gnabry who can all
play on the
right, not even mentioning Wellbeck, so if you think rw and lb are our most urgent needs you are either stupid or deluded.Also the same is true if you think that Arteta and Flamini are good enough for our
midfield
If your CB's are awful in a 4 back system then they'll be exposed as well in a 3 back system no matter what happens.You're just delaying the time for them to get exposed and deceiving yourself.Our problem was not about formation.It was about tactics yet no one saw this and thought 3 -4-3 was our saviour.Look at our starting CB's in 4 back: Koscielny and Mustafi who are all quality.The
midfield is the problem.It's not the 3 back or 4 back.In 3 back also our players are not suited for that formation hence I advice Wenger to switch back before it's too late.We need to revert to 4 back and
play the
right players in the centre.We needed a DM to make our
midfield stable but we didn't so we have to make do with what we have.
Former Sky Blues
right - back Micah Richards has revealed that the Villa Park
midfielder has asked for advice over whether a move to the two - time Premier League champions would be a wise step in his career — given
playing time could be limited in Manuel Pellegrini's side.
Our 3 back is just so wrong.We don't have natural wingbacks even in this formation.It also seems to me that lots of people here believe if you're good at
right or left fullback then automatically you're good at RWB / LWB which quite frankly is untrue.That's why Oxlade Chamberlain can be considered at RWB but not
right back.At RWB or LWB you're asking too much in terms of attack from Bellerin and Kolasinac.A proper wing back can be viewed as a more defensive winger which quite frankly none of them are and they don't possess the flexibility too to
play that way.Our
midfielders are also not disciplined enough because in 3 back there's a huge gap in the centre of the field that must be covered by our CM's so indiscipline only means disaster.We also have Ozil who looks like he's
playing at RW in 3 back.In that we're limiting his impact because Ozil takes on his man because he wants to not because he likes to.You can't
play such players at the wing.He's a proper No. 10 who likes to be given freedom.That's why Ozil
plays likes he's lazy on the ball and stuff.It's because he wants to be free and for that you need to put him at No. 10.
Mahrez is not going to challenge Ozil as they don't
play in the same position and
right now the central
midfield is lacking in quality.
Please, do not give me excuses about injuries etc, we have had those the most since 2004, who to blame than Wenger, who has overplayed and

RIGHT players in
RIGHT places during summer, defensive
midfield player and center back to cover Verminator.

play in central
midfield on Tuesday but he did perform well on the

right back with overwhelming success.

Yes, contrary to other games — in which Guardiola used his talismanic skipper, Lahm, as the
midfield pivot in his favored 4 -1-4-1 system — he
played Kroos as the deep lying
midfielder and, with Alaba and Lahm bombing forward from their Left and
Right - Back positions, respectively, Bayern didn't have bodies in their own half, to thwart Real Madrid's counter-attacks.
All these qualities make him a versatile player capable of
playing anywhere in the
midfield or out on the
right wing.
Possible rotations which wouldn't weaken the team significantly... Gab for Per Debuchy for Hector (if Debuchy is alright) Gibbs for Monreal Theo for Rambo (Theo can
play as a true RW with Debuchy being restraint in his forward runs) Jack for Santi (Jack to do the Deep Lying role) Welbz for Sanchez (stick to the
right... will support Gibbs on his forward runs) Rosicky for Ozil (TR7 is still an effective creator and adds bite to the
midfield)
Debuchy use to
play on the
right side of French
midfield anyway... and he is not getting any minutes at all now....
I reckon if we'd got a world - class central
midfielder during the transfer window, and a manager that
played everybody in the
right positions, with the
right tactics for each game, kept them motivated, cut all dead - wood, and managed injuries well, then we'd be challengers.
I agree and even though the Community Shield against Chelsea next weekend is not that important in the grans scheme of things I think we need to show that last weekend was a blip and just as a fast start in the Premier League is important I think a strong start to our Emirates Cup would be handy so let's not have some inexperienced young
midfielder playing on the
right of defence.
Really, Mert was
playing right midfield from the 70th minute, Rooney scored in the 8th and Wenger in all his wisdom didn't tell Mert to get back or else we will be exposed, pathetic, does this guy ever takes the blame for anything.
As I said after that game, the only reason City were toothless was that they
played 2 holding
midfielders that are exactly the same, Fernandinho and Fernando are technically poor and can't create for toffee, but if City had Yaya Toure in that
midfield to absolutely bully the likes of Cazorla, Ramsey and The Coq it would have been a completely different game, City lost that Box to Box energy Yaya gives them and that
played right into our hand as they were static in
midfield..
