Welbeck, when we sort
out striker position will play on the wings, even if we don't sort it out Arsene will come back to Giroud.
Not exact matches
I see Poldi's best
position as a second
striker, but unfortunately Arsenal doesn't play a 2 man forward lineup, hence there's no way we can bring the best
out of him unless we drastically alter our style of play.
Perhaps Welbeck is just grateful that Giroud's time
out this this season allowed the former Man United
striker the chance to play in his preferred centre forward
position.
Wenger has no tactics, plays his favourite players over better players, gives long term contracts to average and injury prone players, hates strong physical players, plays players
out of
position, always looking for excuse like refrees and saying other teams played more in pre season, does nt spend money on players required like if we need
strikers he will buy CAM, waits for other teams to buy top players and signs average on deadline day, calls accident when we lose, talks cohesion and mental strength when we beat terrible teams and win mickey mouse trophy like Asia cup and community shield.
I don't want to say this, but in the interest of Arsenal's Ucl success over Barca, I want to say, if the Ucl attacking quality of Barcelona's 4 players of, Suarez, Messi, Neymar and Rakitic will play for Barca against Arsenal in both 2 legged ties, the Boss MUST consider the possibility of upgrading the Arsenal's 2 CBs & DM
position with 2 or 3 top quality new additions of a CB, DM and a
striker to face Barca and knock them
out of this round of 8 fixtures.
The France international's best
position is as a central
striker, but he's been used
out wide on both flanks at United in recent times.
He does nt believe in the CDM
position, he never changes tactics and when he did this season its been this stupid 4141 where everyone plays
out of
position, he thinks were fine on
strikers....
(3) formation flexibility — it took 20 years for Wenger to return to a back 3 and now he can't seem to choose anything but that formation... the teams in the premiership and those we could face in the Europa will present vastly different tactics and we need to have a manager who can prepare this squad for this eventuality and have the fortitude to make the necessary adjustments throughout the season... I have seen nothing in the past 6 - 7 years to suggest that he is the man to take on this challenge... I can't even remember when he changed formations when he would replace a small, pacy
striker, like during the Walcott experiment, with the lumbering Giroud... of course this is exactly why there is no other manager in the world that plays more players
out of their natural
positions (square peg in a round hole)
Garde came in and drastically cut the Lyon wage bill, selling the likes of high profile players Michel Bastos & Lisandro Lopez, and giving youth an opportunity - moving Lacazette from the wing to his youth team
position of
striker (taking a page
out of Arsene's book with TH14).
I'm critical because it wasn't the right deal... I'm not saying I don't like Xhaka but if we had signed a Defender or a
Striker which has been a place we have been crying
out for reinforcements for years we would have been in a far better
position now..
It's no secrete we need a man with pace to play in between and run off the defenders making use of our world class A / M (ozil / Santi) if I look who us available in the
striker position the one that stands
out is lacazette, he has similar qualities to remy, but has a few more tricks..
Instead of moving players
out of
position to accommodate a new arrival how about applying some tactical nous and allowing two talented players to both play as
strikers.The best teams of 1998 - 2004 had a number of different
strikers playing off the genius of Dennis Bergkamp.We had pace, movement and power.Although I would not put Ozil in Bergkamps class he is talented enough to pull the strings with other playmakers such as Jack and Mikki in the side in a 442.
I hope that I'm wrong... but with Wenger's activity for another CB when a
striker was supposedly our main
position that needed filling, does point to a fall
out with Koscielny??
1) On the pitch: - we always start 3 -4-3 but always switch back to a back 4... it isn't tactical as we look bad in both - Bellerin playibg LWB when you have the best in the bundesliga last season on the bench - Welbeck playing the
striker role when he can do everything but score when you have Lacazette a record signing on the - Monreal in back 3 when you have Kostafi who can flank Per in the middle protecting him against pace as well as having a commending figure and - Telling Xhaka to not play as a 3rd offensive player when Ramsey dashes - Playing a guy in Ox so
out of
position and persisting with him over preseason as if he would be there for years when it is clear he doesn't want to play for us (his case is a weird one)
With Chambers and Debuchy arguably not of a higher quality than Jenkinson and Sagna, it leaves Wenger only improving in quality through a substitute goalkeeper and a
striker who he is currently playing
out of
position on the left wing.
His crossing was poor and he overhit several balls from
out wide with
striker Eric Choupo Moting in good
position in the box.
The Belgian
striker broke the deadlock in controversial fashion after he prodded home Jordan Henderson's cross at the back post in the 16th minute, however, the goal should have been ruled
out Philippe Coutinho was standing in an offside
position and distracted Cherries goalkeeper Artur Boruc.
The continual experiment of Cazorla on the left side of the pitch most be stopped, play him behind the
striker and let him do his thing, he should have been building his confidence back while Ozil was
out in that
position, if you (wenger) wants jack to play so much, let him play behind giroud and bench cazorla, but this experiment must stop allow, Campbell, ox or Gnabry to show themselves in that
position, even RYO and COQ would do a much better job on the left side of the park.
Best
position — I think the jury is still
out on that one, but just behind the
striker it ain't.
Fernando Torres Age: 30
Position:
striker Loaned to: AC Milan Loan duration: August 31 to January 5 (when he was sold to Milan, who then loaned him
out to Atletico Madrid) Chance of becoming first - team regular at Chelsea: n / a
Mistamonn most of the time his playing players
out of
position is because we don't have the necessary depth of players for each
position specially on the left, the team is always
out of balance he rely needs to buy W / C if not top players in key
positions, last year i was commenting that we needed a
striker before a class DM but i was so wrong, we first need the best DM that money can buy no mater how much then and only then we can look for another class DM and a couple of descent defenders.
Spoiler Alert people, we are not getting anyone in the front
striker position OTHER than what we already have, there was a story in the star yestrday about the 250 million wenger is looking to spend on the likes of Marco Ruess ect ect and I really can not believe that after all these years the Prof will change his ways and spend all that money and evern if he was going to he needs to pull his finger
out as all the top players are being strongly linked with other clubs, meanwhile we wait for the brat Vardy to make up his mind when we know he is highly unlikely to come to us another summer of dissapointment for us as wenger has already stated that Giroud will lead the line next season.
Despite Wenger talking up a lot of our Academy youngsters in the summer, only Jeff Reine - Adelaide (31) has actually been newly promoted to the side although Akpom (32) and surprisingly Sanogo (22), who were both
out on loan last season, have been kept as
striker backups, despite Arsenal having bought Lucas (9) and already having Giroud (12), Walcott (14), Welbeck (23, when fit) and Sanchez (7) all capable of covering that
position as well.
I would be happy and satisfied if we get Vidal as he is a work hose who together with Le Coq will get the best
out of Ozil and Sanchez.would love to see the
striker signed but not sure with wenger's plan on walcot as far as CF
position is concerned.
I keep saying give Cazorla his No10
position and we will look more dangerous, Ozil is just getting away with it season in season
out, we are missing
out on a goal scoring attacking midfielder because Ozil just can't support the
striker and he is the one further up, he just floats around the penalty area with no goal threat.
Everyone goes on about not playing players
out of
position then indulges the whippet in his belief about
striker potential... he ain't and never will b... the difference with the ox when he came on was obvious last night... We have been lumbered with this overrated guy forb a decade now... Why we upped his wages is a mystery to me but torpedoes any talk of wenger's managerial prowess that is for sure
My real concern is up front, for the wide
positions and cf we have a total of 5 first team players, Welbeck, Giroud, Walcott, Ox and Sanchez also Cazorla Ramsey and Ozil will play a game or 2
out wide but I really think we need either a winger or a
striker, they don't even need to be
out of this world someone like Mertens, Callejon, Pedro, Immobile, Llorente, Austin, Pelle would do.

am tired of wenger.the man has got good skills, but somehow he fails to address basic issues in the team like buying a
striker and a cdm in the last summer.at one time, arsenal had good squad but had a keeper who at times committed mistakes i.e almunia.then after ozil came and arsenal were first in december, all wenger had to do was buy a pacy
striker with eye for goal.but wenger did nt so obviously and instead bought an injured kallstrom.agreed ppl fans will keep saying managers shud hav played this guy or that one and so.but in case of wenger, its abt ignoring team issues t (to prove a point he can win without listening to critics and the fans which he never will), and then playing players
out of form,
out of
position, and buying players that do nt fit ur style like giroud!!
Chelsea boss Antonio Conte is reportedly after a new
striker, with the club now in pole
position to bring Gabon forward Aubameyang, having missed
out on Romelu Lukaku to rivals Manchester United, and with a deal for Real Madrid forward Alvaro Morata proving difficult to secure, as reported by the Mirror.
We don't have any more time to waste waiting and hoping that these players may come good, we need an
out and
out proven
striker, opinions may differ as to who this should be but we do need one, Same with a DM as Coquellin will NOT be able to go the whole season in all competitions without either suspension or injury, Arteta is over the hill for his back up and so is Flamini so these are the absolute must have
position we need to fill.
It's better if Arsenal use the money they would have used on Mbappe to strengthen the required
positions in our team.That would be the wiser thing to do.Besides it likely Mbappe will stay for at least one season before moving and to me he should.What is Wenger waiting for?Why not just go all
out and sign a
striker even if that'll be our only signing.Arsene should just sign someone who knows where the net is.I still can't believe wevmissed
out on the EPL to Leicester.It was all down to poor finishing.Even if it was meant to be for Leicester there's a reason why everything happens.
However, Theo can learn all of these traits, he has been selected as an
out and
out striker for Arsenal for only a few months (the tail end of last season and the beginning of this) And after 8 years playing RW it is going to take him time to adapt to CF.. The runs involved are different, the overall responsibilities are different, he will now get the ball in different
positions than he is used to, and even different sorts of passes than he is used to, this will take time and patience for him to adapt.
We know Wenger loves playing players
out of
position and once we succeeded to convert Henry from a wide
position to a WC central
striker he started trying to convert almost any player he came across.
The Ox also enjoyed his best term, impressing largely in many
outings in various
positions, but I'm not sure his best play is seen when is placed behind the
striker, and looks much more competent playing as a wing - back or central midfielder.
the moment you figured
out spurs is in a decent
position to win the league now that vary will miss, the moment you figured
out spurs feature
striker is 10X better then the one we have been forced to watch for 4 years who flaps his arms every time in the box, the moment you figured
out you may not finish in 4th place, this is as bad as it gets for us... if this year does not provoke serious change, then nothing will
Sanchez to hope for a through ball for another runner in this case the aforementioned duo cause i don't trust Walcott for this match and quite frankly will make giroud move into CF
position and act as a
striker by moving
out of
position.
If he played
out of
position last season, you cant compare a wingers conversion rate to a
strikers conversion rate.
I think we will see Welbeck flourish given his favoured
position as
striker rather than
out wide.
The
striker might press first, or the wingers, but the concerted press should begin once the CM is in
position (DM should not be
out of
position on turn over).
Kolasinac is a great piece of business but Lacazette we could have gotten him years ago at a much lower price, and plus a
striker was a
position we cried
out for years ago and we only got it now.
Manuel Pellegrini is having to cope without a number of options upfront at the moment due to injuries, and James Milner looks set to play
out of
position as the main
striker again.
most player
out there are machineries they don't was not to play for badge tgr want highest bidder I can't imagine use pay one stupid person running around for 90minutes 300k per week for the name of a world class
striker it make me sick... I know with time we WL find the right playerfor the
positions left to cover.
The DM
position does not bother me as such, if any of the above scenarios were to play
out, I think whoever comes in can do a decent job for few games but not having a lethal
striker is criminal... I miss the days when we asked for the score and not «who won?»
They are both
strikers and Wenger likes playing players
out of
position ie used to play Ozil on the left, Adelaide LWB, Monreal CB, Ox LWB and LW.
Strikers and front lines that can drift in an
out of each other's
position require more from defenders and cause more confusion.
Giroud's inability to play in any other
position other than as a
striker means that Lacazette will be pushed
out wide.
Playing Ozil
out of
position, having a
striker like Sanogo upfront.
Or u expect Wenger to go
out and buy 2
strikers along with all the other
positions that he needs to cater to???
Giroud is exceptional BUT he is one
striker and we have no real back up in that
position when he's on a slump or injured, Le Coq was almost
out the door until injury forced the situation and the stats clearly show that Fabregas has been far better in his assists and play than Ozil.
