chances against the Black Cats and

of 134 set by Chelsea star Frank Lampard in the 2008 - 09 season.
Theo is an expensive failure and to keep giving him the
chance when he has repaid the clubs faith with being a bottler and acting
as if he's a lazy git (watched him a
number of seasons ago against Blackburn away and all he did was run up and down the wing without even calling for the ball to draw defenders away from the centre) I hate to say it but in my mind Alan Hansen was right when he said that «Walcott has not got a natural footballers brain» It infuriated me at the time but its been proven to be true I feel he's been collecting his money for too long without a result to justify keeping him in our employment.
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
this window has just finished i am already thinking about who we will get for the january window we might try for khedira on a really low offer
as he is free agent almost would help boost
numbers in midfield in the new year
as we will no doubt need to filling the
numbers about then also i will hold my hands up and say i was wrong this morning for giving wenger stick and saying welbeck is rubbish i have been out in the cold light
of day and had a
chance to reevaluate the situation and realized that this could be a canny shrew transfer on wenger behalf actually if wenger can turn the clock back and work his magic on welbeck and get him scoring goals and improve his game then we could have a great underrated signing on our hands its wengers absolute trust in him that might be what makes him a great player
as this is something that he never had at old mordor if anybody can make him a world beater wenger can he loves this little pet projects improving players against the odds welbeck has the skillset to be high class player upfornt he just needs to work very hard on his finishing i think once he gets a few goals under his belt he will settle in fine and he is a team player you could put him on the left against man city to shore up that side and he will put in a great shift without a complaint that could be his biggest asset to us or on the right whenever we need him there ithinkwenger might start himon the left against city to protect the left back against navas and i bet you if he does a great job we will take a shine to him quickly i am hopeing he will be one
of those wenger gems that he finds and polishes up to a high finish i must admit i was annoyed
as some other gunners were at not signing d / m and c / h but if wenger does win the league with this lot it will be his greatest win yet and what might play in to our hands is the unpredictable nature
of the league in the last few seasons if we get on a good run at the right time we might be hard to stop look at city they should have never lost to stoke but the result is there in black and white for all to see and i think chelsea will hit the skids after a while to just because cesc and costa are doing well now thats there main threat but teams will work out how to stop them
as the season goes on and chelsea will become predictable i think we might just do well this season after all
As a result he is not in his favored positions going forward, but he is still creating a fair
number of chances, but the goals have dried up for the whole team.
And the disparity between the
number of chances created by the top, middle and bottom teams is not
as great
as some might imagine.
but the fact that the goals were also shred
as well
as the
number of chances we made suggests that Arsenal might just be getting the fluency back after a dodgy November.
We
as the Arsenal need to do our part in becoming a place where the highest dreams
of players are realized, even if we don't always win trophies, we need to at least always have a «Genuine» fighting
chance, Real Madrid went a
number of seasons chasing La Decima, spent loads
of cash, played second fiddle to Barca for a few seasons even but still players still dreamed
of playing for them in that period, we
as fans need to grow up too and stop bitching and whining especially about our players, we create a toxic atmosphere for these guys when we do so and it doesn't help nobody, little wonder our players perform better away than they do at home.
Nothing like one underachiever blowing smoke up the ass
of another... we know that Ozil has some incredible technical gifts, but to be considered the best you have to bring more than just assists to the table... for me, a top player has to possess a more well - rounded game, which doesn't mean they need to be a beast on both ends
of the pitch, but they must have the ability to take their game to another level when it matters most... although he amassed some record - like stats early on, it set the bar too high, so when people expected him to duplicate those
numbers each year the pressure seemed to get the best
of our soft - spoken star... obviously that's not an excuse for what has happened in the meantime, but it's important to make note
of a few things: (1) his best year was a transition year for many
of the traditionally dominant teams in the EPL, so that clearly made the
numbers appear better than they actually were and (2) Wenger's system, or lack thereof, didn't do him any favours; by playing him out
of position and by not acquiring world - class striker and / or right - side forward that would best fit an Ozil - centered offensive scheme certainly hurt his
chances to repeat his earlier peformances, (3) the loss
of Cazorla, who took a lot
of pressure off Ozil in the midfield and was highly efficient when it came to getting him the ball in space, negatively impacted his effectiveness and (4) he likewise missed a good chunk
of games and frankly never looked himself when he eventually returned to the field... overall the Ozil experiment has had mixed reviews and rightfully so, but I do have some empathy for the man because he has always carried himself the same way, whether for Real or the German National team, yet he has only suffered any lengthy down periods with Arsenal... to me that goes directly to this club's inability to surround him with the necessary players to succeed, especially for someone who is a pass first type
of player;
as such, this simply highlights our club's ineffective and antiquated transfer policies... frankly I'm disappointed in both Ozil and our management team for not stepping up when it counted because they had a
chance to do something special, but they didn't have it in them... there is no one that better exemplifies our recent history than Ozil, brief moments
of greatness undercut by long periods
of disappointing play, only made worse by his mopey posturing like a younger slightly less awkward Wenger... what a terribly waste
The Frenchman organised our team with the intention
of dominating possession,
as well
as creating a
number of chances, and we did just that, having two thirds
of the time on the ball,
as well
as notching up 13 shots, but the finishing was not good enough on the day.
They have a
number of promising young centre backs who ought to be given an opportunity to prove themselves for the remainder
of the season in the EPL matches.They simply can not be worse than the rapidly declining Koscielny and Mustafi who can not cope with the likes
of Swansea, Bournemouth etc. let alone a team like Spurs.The lack
of steel at the back impacts on our more attacking players
as they know they need to score 2/3 goals to have any
chance of producing a win.
As usual Elneny has come in for criticism but the real culprits are our centre backs and Xhaka who seems to be a fixture regardless
of being bang average.
This is very interesting.I look at the
number of striking options in our team and i wonder how Wenger will be signing a cf.However
as i keep saying a cf is a need not a want.And needs are more important than wants.We have needed a World class cf since Robin Van P. Left.Just look at the feeling you get when you have a world class goalkeeper e.g Cech in the team.You feel relieved you know why?Its because the goalkeeper is very reliable, very talented and consistent.Imagine the feeling you would have when having a world class cf in the team.You feel very relieved you know why?its because the cf is very consistent, is super talented, will at most times finish off
chances and will mostly create moments
of magic.Arsenal need a world class cf so
as to have that sense
of reliability and to not put too much pressure on the midfield to always create
chances for them.We neeed that consistency infront
of goal to excel.Right now arsenal's centre forwards are very inconsistent, unreliable at most times and are not very clinical.We need a world class striker so that at least if the team is not performing he can take control and do something out
of nothing.You need to understand the benefits
of having a world class cf its not just about goals or talent but about being a leader
of the attack, a strong scoring mentality and also the will to be consistent.World class cf's give your attack the ish factor.
The feeling that this is going to be the Foxes year was made even stronger
as they won this match by scoring the only goal
of the game with their only shot on target and their visitors spurned a
number of good
chances to get something.
So the thing stands like - If we win at Galatasray (very possible) and if BvB lose at home (given the
number of injuries, very possible) than we top the group and than have every
chance of drawing (
as it stands) Schalke 04, Basel, Zenit, but have also the possibility
of drawing Barcelona or Juventus (they are second in their respective group) and given your luck we will somehow still draw Barca.
Booed by his own fans on a
number of occasions this season, supposedly unpopular with his team - mates, struggling to meet expectations from his # 85m transfer fee — Bale needs a defining moment to make a legacy with the club,
as many great players are not given a second
chance at a club with standards
as high
as this.
«I think that I'll have a

Baines has been a consistent force at Goodison Park for a
number of years but is probably aware that
as long
as he remains at the club he is unlikely to challenge for major honours and may well never get to test himself at Champions League level but above all else he may feel that a high - profile move would help his
chances of pushing Ashley Cole out
of the England left - back spot.
The Gunners could have had the game wrapped up by halftime, with a
number of great
chances coming from both flanks
as well
as through the middle.
Truth is mistakes were made by both keepers, Arsenal had more
chances without playing
as well
as they should, with Reading seldom in our half, Shezesny hardly troubled and not required to pull off heroic saves like his opposite
number, none
of which describes this win
as lucky.
As expected, Arsene Wenger has given
chances to a
number of fringe players, although a good balance
of experience and youth is starting in today's line - up.
I certainly don't see Bellerin wanting to sit on their bench, but if he has a realistic
chance of being their
number 1 then he would probably take the opportunity,
as would the vast majority
of players if Barca came knocking.
Roma's Radja Nainggolan tops the list
of potential candidates, achieving a stunning 83.9 % transfer match based on a
number of factors, including the
number of defensive errors leading to a
chance (per 90 minutes) alongside other indicators such
as their age relative to the peak playing age for that position, the relative status
of their club and percentage
of possible league minutes played.
If he does what is required I reckon Wenger will give him another
chance as Wilshere can play the sort
of role that Cazorla does in the centre and he also has the ability to be more attacking on either flank or in the
number 10 role.
There are reasons basketball seems more upset - prone, such
as its greater
number of games (more
chances for upsets to happen) and smaller
number of players (more room for one player to totally wreck everything), but that's a side debate.
Unfortunately for these two Arsenal related stars, their performances were not enough to guarantee progression to the next round
as the Swiss could only draw after conceding a daft early penalty and squandering a
number of good
chances.
Looking beyond the significant aspects
of scoring goals and creating goals, Arsenal, going into their last 8 games
of this campaign, would want Sanchez, who has created the most
number of goal scoring
chances (64) in the Arsenal squad, to get back into form
as soon
as possible.
A
number of these
chances are rather challenging, but it is bewildering how a team which played so far beneath its own standards created
chances, such
as Salah's shot which he should have passed to Mané, or Lallana's last - minute shot which somehow did not go in.
Perhaps Liverpool need a new, more effective tactical approach for these matches, one which focusses on creating overloads out wide, but even then, Liverpool lack aggression from their midfield, the
number of through balls is low,
as was the
number of dribbles, and if packing stats were available for Liverpool, I would imagine only Emre Can may have had a
chance of standing out, for Liverpool's passing was far too passive and slow.

2:24 p.m.: A
number of good
chances in that power play — one over the net by Simmonds, one a big slapshot by Couturier from the slot — but nothing finds its way to the net
as the man - advantage ends and we reach the halfway mark
of regulation.
Luis Suárez has the same
number of goals
as the Brazilian, but he's getting plenty
of chances and just not converting, so the goals will probably start to come.
