The 21 - year old is currently playing in the Championship for Ipswich Town and his usual role is as a left back, but at 6ft 3in and with his power and pace, it is thought that he could easily make the switch to central defence, which is coincidentally the weakest part of the Arsenal squad right now.

Well written, but I think it will fall on deaf ears, my fear is as follows, it will take a loss in money for the manager and board to change, this will only come if we finish out of the top 4, but knowing the board they would still give home a season to try again, I feel very sorry for Sanchez, he is total quality and deserves better, most of the other players look settled, turn up give70 % and get paid, no matter what level you play at you should come off the pitch thinking I gave everything, how many of our players could say that, they lack motivation, player for player we are as good if not better than athletico Madrid but they have a manger that gets 100 % out of every player, Klopp is the same, but why would they leave their clubs to come here with a boar that cares about money not entertainment, Wenger was a lucky manager he inherited a top defence now his luck has run out
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
His pace and movement are a nightmare for defences and make them play that 10 yards deeper, bringing the best out of the likes of Alexis Sanchez and Mesut Ozil.
Play Wenger in defence and hopefully someone will put him out of action for the rest of the season Transfer time!!!! Oh sorry we always give new contracts to people that are always injured.
Gotanidea is correct when he says we need explosive wingers.We need natural width and pace before we can even think about getting the best from Lacazette and (hopefully) Auba without Wenger playing one of them out wide.We continue to allow defences to dominate us by stopping us playing wide and we are forced into the crowded area outside the box trying to thread the ball through an eye of a needle.
SC19 is our best midfielders ANYTIME: He can play up to 3 or 4 positions; He will drive team out of tight a defence; He can use both legs efectively; He has a decent short taking with high degree of accuracy; He is a cool headed guy with great skills (typical Spaniard).
Possession football, leaving it late ti find goals, an utterly confused defence after taking a lead, fighting to salvage draws agains weaker teams, reliance on one or two special players to bale us out, poor timing of substitutions, the frequent long term injury list, quality players played out of position, referees gunning us and yet our players commit the kind of fouls leading to cards and penalties.
A man who disses the whole concept or necessity for a tight defence, as Wenger has done for a full decade (or even more, in truth) should be drummed out of top level football and sent to manage on HACKNEY MARSHES, DIVISION 8, where he will find his Utopia, teams playing like Arsenal defence.
I don't anticipate seeing him out for 20 minutes every night, but even getting 10 minutes consistently would be good for his development I think.There's some talent there we could make use of, if he can avoid fouls and play acceptable defence.
Plus Per is retiring anyway so number wise we are very short and we saw what happened at the beginning of the season with a make shift defence of players being played out of position
I have passionately wanted Wenger out for a full decade and one idiot who thinks we should just shut up and support this long term loser manager who has no tactics; can't use subs properly; mis handles players; plays them constantly out of position and who doesn't get the need for defence / attack balance (constantly sending two full backs upfield together and playing attacking midfielders as holding players) is in cloud cuckoo land.
No you can't blame ozil for being played out of position but we should be able to blame Wenger for playing him on the wing where he is a liability in defence and average in attack.
The way Chambers has adapted to playing in the centre of defence, I would not mind seeing the 19 - year old given a go there, but time is short and running out fast, with just the games against Everton, Besiktas and Leicester City coming before the summer transfer window slams shut.
Yeah nice to play the ball out of defence but if necessary just effing clear it guys!
Sloppy passing, an unfocused defence and a team playing consistently out of shape — sums up the game for Arsenal... we still need to strengthen in key positions, whilst having patience with the players we already have.
the match between England and France prove to us why arsenal will never be a top club not only because of the manager but also fans we praise a bellow average player ox Chamberlain but look at the defence between him and the young French players we will never improve from where we're because we have to much faith mediocrity we are not improving because of these players ox Wolcott Ramsey ozil Jack Wilshire Francis Coquelin Danny Welbeck there are a lot of young exciting play out there who can improve us
A defence can play a high line and that's Giroud out of the game.
Ozil needs to be played more centrally if we hope to benefit from his creativity with the ball and Welbeck's first touch is far too sloppy to be played along side Lacazette... we need to find a formation which allows more service to those making runs from the middle of the pitch... Lacazette can not play so much with his back to goal or we're simply playing the same unsuccessful offensive scheme we played with Giroud, who is much better in that type of role... I can only hope we keep Sanchez and purchase a true defensive midfielder then switch to a 4 -4-1-1, which allows us to have Ozil play more centrally with Sead and Sanchez on the left side and Ox and Bellerin on the right, which would stretch defences so much that we could overwhelm most opponents with both runs in behind and overlapping runs out wide
Can u imagine us going 2 up front... Here we are with 3 cbs Cech Kos Mert / Gabriel / Nacho (2 of the three) Ramsey Cazorla Coquelin Sanchez Özil Giroud and Ighalo (ighalo replaces Bellerin bcos he can't play CB) Or... Cech (usual defence) Usual midfield minus one of: Coquelin / Cazorla / Sanchez / Ramsey / Özil Giroud Ighalo The point is, will Ighalo be more valuable than whoever we would take out of the starting XI??? And would the partnership with Giroud even work???
We have a clueless manager who, heaven forbid if he did stay would do nothing about the omni - shambles that is the Arsenal defence — in fact, he would go out and spend 90 million on a pointless winger who he will play out of position and destroy the confidence of.
Yes their GK played out of his skin and their defence defended well.
Their defence is water tight wellbeck will have to play out of his skin to have any joy... Sanchez..
The midfielder is able to play out wide or in central defence, but is most adept to playing just in front of the defence, but has been improving his play up the pitch this season also.
Also Kos is out at least for a month so thanks Wenger that you did not replace Verminator, we could have Song back in that same deal and look how he has done in West Ham and can play also in middle of defence.
