Coquelin's defending is excellent.In fact i've watched many DM's Arsenal have been linked and he's better
than some of them defensive wise.How many top DM's will keep the likes of Silva, Coutinho and Modric (12/13) quiet throughout a match?It takes top defending to do that.His biggest problem is that he's not adventurous and doesn't hold the ball with authority.It's just that I feel he's not given the appreciation he deserves.He's a good squad
player to have and when on form can do well against top
teams.
Wenger has mostly used the second string squad at the start of any season to great effect, most
teams aren't at full strength or match fit and he plays that Wengerball numbers game, throwing in squad
players who are fit and raring to go whilst the first
team get ready, we'll win 2 of our 3 opening games and he'd rather that
than splash 100m on 3
players and get the same amount of points.
has wenger bought injury - proof bodies for the
players???... i have to agree that we have a stronger squad

but u are continuinh talking about «our philosophy»...» our philosophy» like u said has been pass the ball without any idea and without winning any mayor throphy for the last 12 years... so let alexis do what he do... he can lose balls, but he scores, he creates, he fights, give us beautifull moments of football, and better
than all, win us games... a
team with 11 ozil does nt win games... with 11 alexis yes... so stop demanding more ozils and to criticate alexis... it is not a coincidence that ozil always looks for alexis, its because he knows alexis is the man who can transform him from the most creative
player to the assist king, and again, better, eho can help him to win games (i love ozil and he is a winner, do nt missundertand me)..

players in defence, in fact our defensive
players are 15x better but VAN GAAL will get a result, united have had an injury list just as long if not longer
than ours but VAN GAAL will get a result, united have just gone through a managerial shift but VAN GAAL will get a result, so why on earth are united in the title race and not arsenal?

Giroud misses more
than he hits, Walcott has NEVER delivered his expected talent, Welbeck will NEVER be the striker to score 20 goals a season Coqellin will NOT go a whole season injury or suspension free, Sanchez and Ozil WILL have down period during the season, all
teams have these problems to a greater or lesser degree but most of the top
teams will address these problems and
players either inprove or are sold and replaced with better or at least more consistant
players, NOT Wenger he keeps doing the same thing over and over with the same
players and he expects a different result but gets the same outvome time and time again, yet its ALWAYS someone else's fault be it the Ref or the linesman or the opposition or bad luck or whatever and whoever and its NEVER the fact that HE has done nothing to change the situation and LOOKS LIKELY to not change it next time around.

goodness i can't believe it people will still defend him.You know something when Giroud misses many chances like at Monaco i did not criticize him even based on that you know why?its because he has always not been clinical.The only way a
team can improve is by indentifying its problems and solving them.Arsenal has Giroud as the main cf and Welbeck as backup to him.Giroud has done well scoring some goals some too important but collectively he does more harm
than good.Do not use moments to judge a
player judge him based on content.Giroud does not excel in many games
than he excels in games.As a main cf you need to be consistent.I see people here saying Giroud can not dribble he cant do this he cant do that but its a bit crazy to criticize him for that because every
player has his own style.Giroud limitations as a
player costs arsenal and will cost us a lot.Most importantly his poor finishing which has cost us several times.Not good enough.His style of play is ok for us but a striker who can take on
players and run behind defences very well would make us very strong and also should be clinical.For Welbeck he needs to works on his finishing and composure by doing the basic things right.He rushes infront of goal too much.For now he is just above average.However he can excel if he works on improving.Giroud and Welbeck will always be a pain in arsenal's neck for most part.Some will call me stupid but hey at least i want to analyze the problem.People may support Giroud or Welbeck to lead the line next season but as the saying goes if you fool me once shame on you but if you fool me twice shame on me.Will you let Giroud and Welbeck fool you again?
He is definitely giving Giroud chances due to the French national
team which is a major tournament for him due to the ban of Benzema and lets face it Giroud is good when plays with France who is a completely different
player for them
than Arsenal.
