m so m determined in my heart that wenger wud never make me decamp arsenal, the fact is we barely or don't have a player like adams who wud have raised to crys of the fans to the board or high heavens, when I see less strong hearted or die hard players like ramos, keane, adams at arsenal, I feel so ashamed, we don't have any player with passion in our team bar sanchez...

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)

If Arsenal stick with three centre backs then Mustafi must be considered a far better choice for the third birth alongside Kos and Holding rather then Monreal.Kolasinac has to come back in at left eing - back and Bellerin revert to the right.Midfield is a very different matter.Arsenal still desperately need a proper defensive central player.Ozil in this current side can not be considered anything more than a luxury.All of Bournemouth's creativity will come down the flanks so it's necessary to put players on to the pitch who are prepared to fulfill their defensive duties.This also means that unless Ramsey can work out that he's playing in midfield not as a number 10 he has no place on the team either.

I'd have focused more on Torres (which I did), the lack of CB depth (I'd prefer to have two quality CBs to back up a 3 back rather than just one with one of the starters being a converted CDM), the lack of players who fit the outside mid role well in this formation (which, hey, maybe that's part of what you were referring to), and the fact that when you play more attackers higher up the pitch, it often requires a team to be able to implement a high pressuring defensive line (Dempsey and Bruin are not suited for that).

i would rather urge the team to have their wits about them, to be bold and to be aware they are privileged to be playing at the highest level at one of the bests clubs in the world so its time to be committed AND repay the fans who follow the club through the wind and rain the good times and bad.

As a Fan I know that a fraction of the money I spend as a supporter goes to buy players, unfortunately it seems a very small fraction, so I will continue with my own little contribution, as I know the owner will rather see us in the relegation battle than dig into his pockets to reinforce the squad, but also would like to see a gesture from WENGER, whom we all know is going nowhere, as a Man of principles that he claims to be and that he will HONOR his Contract till the end, as the ARSENAL lover he claims to be cut your wages give back some of that money that you did not earn and contribute to the future glory of the Team, like each one of us Fans do when we spend our well and hard earned money, do this buy players.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic struck a free kick in the 39th minute following a Mikel foul, and according to Ferdinand, the West African was not guilty of pulling his weight and doing his defensive duties in the wall, merely sticking out his foot rather than putting his own body on the line for the good of the team.

Ospina has also conceded fewer goals per game that any of the highly rated big name keepers in England and to highlight the fact that he has done this despite Arsenal being an attacking and open team rather than because, he has more saves for each goal as well.

The committee's plan for determining which teams play in the best games has not yet been completely disclosed, but if it leads to a common - sense determination of teams based on merit, rather than an application of cryptic and unforgiving rules made solely to prevent unscrupulous bowl executives from turning every big bowl game into Notre Dame against someone vaguely local, it's a massive improvement in the process.

I'd rather make a contribution of 20 goals and 18 assists in all competitions to be crowned Bundesliga champion, DFB Pokal champions as well as be a strong contender in the UCL than score 24 EPL goals and 10 assists or more and still not make top four at the end of the season... ask Henry who left the club to win the UCL with a Barca... please can u give me ten examples of «other top teams»...
