The Stoke stopper had to be at his best a bit later when Ramsey almost finished a vcery similar move on
the other side of the goal but that was about as good as it got for Arsenal in an attacking sense.

of.

Even the title I have put at the top
of this post could be seen as a bit on the harsh
side on the 28 - year old, as he scored 19
goals for the Gunners last season, at a ratio
of just better than one every
other game, and he already has three for the new season so far, despite being well down the pecking order
of forward players available to the boss.
but its a bit sad to see that i as i know more about arsenal fans than
other fans, to say from the bottom
of my heart, that the fans on here are as worse as the worst if not the worst fans out there... arsenal being on a run, with özil scoring one
of the best
goals i have ever seen on tuesday, draws against the best defensive
side in the league and no they arent stoke city or something they are SPURS equally title challenger as any
of arsenal man city, man united, chelsea, liverpool, a team that sent man city home when they (city) looked unbeatable..
Take a good look at Chelsea's
side most
of their Fowards have won accolades in
other leagues, Most Assist's, Most
Goals..
As a result, it would surely require a player to head out first to make space for Werner, but having spent so heavily on their attack, it's only logical that they address their issues at the
other end
of the pitch given that they possess the worst defensive record
of the top seven Premier League
sides this season having conceded 36
goals in 27 games.
He was a major outlet for Ozil and Cazorla especially... if he wasn't at the end
of those chances, his diagonal runs to the left
side of the pitch was creating space for
others and Sanchez to come in on
goal.
He inherited a fantastic
side at Barcelona, he had Messi at his disposal (who will probably go down as the greatest player ever, and guarantee's you a
goal a game), Pep also had a lot
of other world class players that were so in tune which each
others game, he had lots
of money to spend, and Real and Barcelona were miles ahead
of any else in the Spanish league in terms
of quality players and finances.
Alex Oxlade - Chambrrelain keeps his place after his recent form and THeo Walcott is ont the
other side of Alexis Sanchez in our attack so there is plenty
of pace and
goal threat for the visitors to cope with.
In the absence
of Harry Kane's
goals, Spurs have become draw specialists this season with three more than any
other top five
side in the league.
What do u expect when we have the most patheticc fans in d history
of football, all they know is to insult every player that wears d shirt, no English winger presently has scored more
goals than Walcott yet he's always an idiot, their latest target now is xhaka, soon will stop being adventurous to avoid mistakes and start playing
side ways and back passes bcos
of fans abuse, giroud donkey, ozil has more assists, hss created more Chances, has made completed more passes in d final 3rd, has made more successful crosses than any
other player in d league since he came to arsenal, yet they will always call him lazy, its ridiculous we v decended to this sorry state, no player will flourish in a hostile environment like ours,
Perhaps it is the added pace
of the Ox and with Alexis Sanchez on the
other side that has convinced the boss to start with Giroud in the centre, or perhaps it is a reward for the way he has come back from that dip in form and scored vital
goals from the bench.
With both these
sides having beaten each
other in the league this season (both by the scoreline
of 1 - 0) we could be set for another nervy and tight affair at Wembley today, and
goals may be hard to come by.
Goals, we have all types of goals and from more different players than any other side, goals are not a pro
Goals, we have all types
of goals and from more different players than any other side, goals are not a pro
goals and from more different players than any
other side,
goals are not a pro
goals are not a problem.
And with the need
of 1 more important
goal desparetely, momentum with the
other side, a chance at free kick to bury the game and Ramsey steps up to take it???? Even when he was in form last season, he did not take the free kicks.
Of course I am very happy that Giroud scored an excellent
goal against a top
side like Crystal Palace, but where where the
other central players supposed to play except in the centre?
However, United were very nearly laughing on the
other side of their faces as Preston took the advantage before normal service was resumed with a late flurry
of goals for the Premier League giants.
... because the ball had hit the defender on the shin and deflected from over there to back there, from one
side of goal to the
other.
The Welshman got caught up in the encounter last night, with both
sides going all - out to try and secure the win, and the assurance
of having topped their group, but the two
sides cancelled each
other out with a
goal each per half, and the final game will now prove the deciding factor in the standings.
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

goals this season have been scored by Spanish players, more than any
other side in Europe's big 5 leagues pic.twitter.com / DLHXfmAUjY
The striker has bagged 71 Ligue 1
goals over the past three seasons albeit in a struggling
side, and his consistency could rival that
of Tottenham's Harry Kane or any
other top Premier League goalscorer.
When any
of the
other big
sides have shock defeats, at least they look like they may come back all through the game, we never did until the spuds scored their second
goal.
But just as important for Arsenal to have any chance
of claiming the Premier League title next time around is our ability to stop the
other side from scoring and that ability was not much in evidence last season, with our 44 EPL
goals conceded being the worst in the top six.
Next week to Chelsea game Arsenal need to put Danny welbeck in the
side against Chelsea which is where they fail to have exceptional pace that arsenal possess to fight the threat
of hazard and Willian,
other than that Fabregas will do whatever he can in his power to muster up a
goal so therefore cazorla maybe sacrifices for Ramsey and Ozil which will bring a quick team to boot.
When the keeper gets the ball and walks from one
side of the
goal to the
other side to keep the ball out, give him a yellow card and then the next time he'll take it where the ball is.»
Asked if he thought Lambert's problems with him could be personal, the former England international wouldn't rule it out, pointing out that he was never in the
side whether or not
other players were injured, and regardless
of the team's need for
goals after a dry spell upfront.
The pony - tailed centre forward has scored 38
goals in 62 league games for his
side — that is an average
of just over one every
other game.
On one
side of the cm we have the energetic players on the
other side the players who drive forward with the ball.the width would be provided by full backs or forward players running away from
goal.
Two
of the clear chances that United had came from Mertesacker's sloppy play: the first was when He couldn't put his feet to the ground and fell allowing Martial to turn and whip a shot at
goal thanks to Petr Cech for his brilliance, and the
other one was when he allowed martial to slip away from the left
side, failed to track him down leaving the young Frenchman to race into our 18 yard which almost resulted into a
goal.
Any
other day and we would have scored 3 - 4
goals vs Soton and won comfortably but it still remains that we have a problem
of balance on the right
side of the pitch, and this was painfully obvious in the last game.
On the
other side of the fence, Celta will almost certainly be looking to Iago Aspas for their own successes, with their talisman striker having gotten himself a
goal every
other game in the Europa League so far this season.
They did, however, play outstandingly well at home against Manchester United, which was an inexplicably open game, with both
sides going hammer and tongs at each
other's
goal, and showed that they can ruffle their opponents when they discover their rhythm and haveA one
of their better days.
We have a
goal difference to make up too... But, if attack is the best form
of defense, and if your current defenders are not good enough, it better to organize the attack so well that the
other side will be more careful... or conservative.
However divided the opinion
of Olivier Giroud is among Arsenal fans, he has unquestionably added something to the
side since his recovery last month; his two
goals against Newcastle showing that he boasts talents few
others in the team can offer.
Now I think there is still reasons to be cheerful, I agree Man C & Chelski have spent & bought some good players, we all understand that 5
of those teams might be in the CL proper which is a huge distraction for those 4 - 5 teams.Chelsea will not be able to field the same 13 - 14 players all season, as for Man C they were very frail at the back last season, add to that 2 flying wing backs and I'm not sure they will be any better this coming season.LFC will most probably have CL as well if they qualify and haven't exactly bought great players apart from Salah who could be a good aquasistion for them.Spuds have sold a good player & strengthened a rival & still not bought a single player yet, Man U have bought 2 good players & in Lukaku have a proven
goal scorer in the PL but if they play the same dour way they did last season & with the added games the CL brings will they perform week in week out in the league??? As for Everton yes they have released a lot
of players and also brought in a lot too to give better quality in the squad as they have Europa league the same as US the big difference is I think we will play squad players & youngsters maybe with a few senior players all the way up to the QF This tells me most
of our rivals will pave the way for us to field pretty much the same
side every weekend in the PL thus giving us an advantage over all the
other 5 teams playing in the CL & Europa, just remember the League has been won in the last 2 seasons by teams NOT in Europe YES we are this season but I think Wenger will put all his eggs in the League basket and field an under strength
side in all comps hence focusing on the League until we are no longer in the race.
Bolton sit in 17th spot after a run
of decent form, three wins in their last five Premier League fixtures, but the Trotters still find themselves in a relegation battle and have conceded more
goals than any
other side in the division, 47 in 22 matches, so could do with all the help they can get at the back.
yeah but i also have to say that he does nt sparkle either: / he did score some
goals but whenever i see him in the game i cant really say that he is the one i want to have permanently on the right because he slows the attacks down very often and often passes turn on the wing and passes back, right now he is only better than the ox because he scored 3
goals more i think maybe a bit more, but neither
of them do enough, ramsey on the
other side when he started on the wing at the start
of the season did a lot
of things for the build - up i prefer ramsey to campbell... well
of course an in form walcott
of the season 12/13 would be the dream because in that season he was in my opinion equal if not better than sanchez
of the season 14/15 but thats a dream xD
Our
side lacks pace penetration and urgency right now and we are easy to defend against I don't see a flood
of goals in us and I don't see any
goal scorer
other then Ramsey and Sanchez in our
side.
Their form in the league wasn't great either, as they followed a 5 - 0 thumping
of Aston Villa with disappointing draws with Chelsea and Everton, and were then beaten in a crucial game with Manchester United, who won 3 - 2 at the Etihad Stadium with a last - minute winner from none
other than Robin van Persie, who was indeed making a huge difference in the title race, as his
goal put six points between league leaders United and City, giving Mancini's
side a real uphill task to retain their title even before the half - way point
of the season.
On the
other side of the ice, Filip Forsberg led the Nashville team in scoring with 26
goals, 38 assists and 64 points, leading the Nashville team in scoring.
Even when Coquelin came on you saw what he done for the 4th
goal, pressing Firminho along
side two
other of our players, neither can get the ball off him.
As we all pined for over the summer, a player with the combined attributes
of those two is exactly what the team needed, but as it stands, we have a quick player that likes to get in - behind and offers us no true threat in the build up or aerially, and then on the
other side we have a strong player with back to the
goal and in the air that offers us no true vertical threat in behind.
Diego Costa was a key part
of the Blues title - winning campaign, earning his
side more points with his
goals than any
other player in the division, but will now have to seek a new club to play for next season.
