I have said before yesterdays game that we need a top class forward and dm to challenge having watched yesterdays diabolical performance i feel we need to ad a out and out winger to the team playing ozil or carzola out left is not working pedro would have been a fantastic signing but looks like he is going to man u. I thought coq passing yesterday was terrible we need someone who can do both jobs sit in front of back 4 but when in possession have the quality to make things happen coq lacks the 2nd part by a long way.

During the summer before the Euro's kicked off, Ozil was in the spotlight for liking a post on Instagram which mocked Giroud for his untold missed chances which cost Ozil the chance to smash Henry's assists record and We all know that Giroud has a very sensitive Ego, especially after the way he reacted to Henry's comments of «Arsenal won't win the league all the while that Giroud is playing up front» And in the end Henry had to come out and rephrase his statement because Giroud wouldn't let it go.

It's difficult to blame Ozil for the difficulties he's faced at Arsenal without looking at the big picture... like the fans, he too was lied to by Wenger... there is no doubt in my mind that he was told by Wenger that he was trying desperately to recreate our earlier success by acquiring players that fit the system he ran when Henry was in his prime... as we know this hasn't happened... in order for Ozl to flourish he needs some speed up front, forwards that can make intelligent runs, a boss in the midfield to compensate for his obvious defensive liabilities and defenders who can transition from defence to offence quickly and efficiently... much like he had in Real and with the German National squad... unfortunately he ended up on a squad that has a striker who plays with his back to goal, very few intelligent runs into the box, minus Sanchez, no one to take pressure off him in the midfield, once Cazorla was injured, average defensive midfielders around him, which simply highlighted his lacking defensive qualities and defenders who lack the necessary cutting edge when it comes to transitional passing... instead of blaming Ozil, which is simply too easy, especially considering his mopey disposition, we should be asking ownership and / or Wenger why they brought him in if they didn't intend on doing what was necessary to get the best from him... can you imagine Ozil playing with the likes of Henry, Viera, Petit and Pires, it would be incredibly to watch and even more difficult to stop... so the only thing different between his experiences in Real and with the German team versus his time at Arsenal are the players around him and we all know who is in charge of making those decisions, the Grinch who stole soccer

Ozil and Xhaka should be left on the bench in view of their defensive weaknesses against a side like Man City who are likely to dominate possession.Mertz should not be played as he simply does not have the pace to cope with the Man City front three.This may appear a defensive line up but a similar strategy worked well against Chelsea earlier this season and may do so against the most impressive attacking side in the league.

Today we saw our attacking force without alexis... and it is a shame... for all of those talking nonsense about alexis being to selfish qnd that affecting our «fluency»... lacazzete is a cf so he needs people behind him... if we do nt buy q world class player to replace alexis we are done, we would not fight for the tittle... today was a friendly, but the difference was huge... do nt lie urself about we play with 2nd teqm players... we start with oyr first team in the middle and front line, and we did nothing... hope that 280k a week to ozil is a bad joke

The smile Ozil gave Sanchez when he was inches away from keeping the ball in play with an open flank in front of him... It was pure confidence that they were about to slice them open and score again.

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...

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'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...

Some tactical changes definitely have to be made: like a guy said before: Just keep one of Cazorla / Ozil not both!Walcott could also be brought to play on the wing and have Welbeck play in front Rosicky / Ox can play in midfield and Gabriel and Monreal must be in and BFG and Gibbs out!!

Play front of A and Lac and let Ozil go deep to supply counters for us and we defend tightly when City is in our final third....

the cheese eating surrender monkey has screwed up again we all know that now so we have to hope to get our real quality players performing to full potential that is ozil sanchez wishere carzola... i am not sure there is a combo with all four and at this moment wilshere and sanchez are the only ones looking pretty decent and as wellbeck needs to be integrated those positions are settled... i am a big ozil fan and really believe wenger is failing to get best out of him by playing him out of position so cant we play some kind of diamond with him at the top feeding to a front line of sanchez and wellbeck... for me neither flamini nor arteta add anything to the team so i think playing to attacking strengths is the only option right now... but its really a ridiculous state of affairs we have been left in... throwing caution to the wind i would go for

Having Ozil of all people play as a winger especially in front of either full back in Debuchy or Monreal is suicide because he will not track back whatsoever and in a formation like that which is designed to thrive on position you need a work horse on the wings for whichever full back you plan to have overloading the wing AS WELL AS a positionally astute defensive midfielder to come across and provide cover.

wenger needs to build a golden idol in the shape of ozil @ no10 statue and make everyone in the squad bow down before it to make ozil feel special again and he will be rocking and rolling again wengers first commandment will be play ozil @ no10 only no where else, command no 2 build the whole arsenal attack around ozil only at no 10, ozil is the future of our attacking play along with wilshere and ramsey controlling midfield in box 2 box roles along with a worldy d / m in front of back 4.

Basically Giroud isn't fast and smart enough to play in front of a guy like Ozil.

Play both leave xhaka out go 3 -5-2 laca back into the team with ozil behind laca and Abu n bellerin and miki on either side of him behind them in front of the defence Ramsey and wilshere with our defence picking themself.

2 things; wenger has to take massive crtisism for favoritism with certain players and for spending latley on less than whats needed e.g why play ozil, ramsey, walcott, when they havnt performed, anyone can see a front 3 of welbeck, sanchez and perez would cause havoc Xhaka wtf he cant takle, is not mobile enough and has the temper and the decision making skills of a of a suicide victim, why did nt we go in for Kante less money and 10x a better player or even Schneiderlin thinking about what happens after wenger ask yourself this will we win the league next year with wenger then ask if we got the right manager next year would we win the league

Xhaka & Cesc or Isco (Santi)(sell Wilshere & Elneny keep Ramsey) in the middle, Ozil in front of them (they can play there also) Sanchez & Aubameyang up top.

That's the point.Something needs to change or else I don't see the need of Ozil here.If his best ability is to create chances why put players who can't finish in front of him.We need to play to his strengths.The guy needs to be used effectively.I was shocked at the number of assists he had in 15/16 season.Even people thought he'd break Henry's record but it couldn't happen.What's the use of Ozil if he can't assist?

Ozil must be unbelievably frustrated... On the positive elnenys link up play was good if not his composure in front of goal

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

With Ozil in great form in front of goal and with Giroud fit again, can Wenger stop worrying about Alexis Sanchez and make sure the Chilean is at no risk before playing him again?

Yes I know what everybody will say but miki can finish and on paper it doesn't maybe look like a wow but with miki ozil and laca rotting in the game with ozil's into the box with Ramsey and wilshere also breaking into the box arsenal will be a dream to watch and defenitly deliver results when Abu comes back miki goes in Nelson place Ramsey can be replaced with xhaka with the faster teams konslny can be replaced with belirn and kolasinac be played in front of bellrn where bellrn is now in the 3 -5-2 system

If both Xhaka and Elneny play in the center of the park, and Iwobi, Ozil and Ramsey play in the front three, with Alexis up front, we still have enough people who can head the ball pretty well.

Why doesn't Wenger play to Ozil's strengths instead of exploiting his weakness 3 games in a row in front of Monreal?

@goonerlad Guess you haven't been paying attention... Carzorla does not play the» Ozil role» in front of defense.

He's not a deep playmaker but a midfield work horse who will support the striker as opposed to Cazorla who plays the Ozil role in front of the defence

I always think play to your strength and ozil loves having the pace of theo in front of him & Aubameyang would be another fantastic addition.

The news has gone viral on the internet news media that quoted the Welsh man Gray Bellamy to have purportedly said, the Boss should play his fellow Welsh man — Aaron Ramsey in the middle of the Gunners front 3 as Arsenal's play maker and Ozil should instead be moved to the left wing (Ozil Ramsey Walcott) maybe that's what he ment in terms of senior Gunners mid front trio.

So i would love to see Lukaku and Lacazette both come in as the latter also plays as RW and would do well there and will comprise a deadly trio of Sanchez, Lukaku and Lacazette being our front 3 with the likes of Ozil and Cazorla behind them...

Like the usual 3 -4-2-1, Sanchez and Iwobi acted as central attacking midfielders behind Giroud, but Xhaka played as a defensive midifielder, supported the creative central midfielders in front of him (Wilshere and Ozil).

Ozil is a class player and it's not like we have them in abundance.Sign Mikki and Abua and play them up top with Laca.Skill pace and desire in all of them.Ozil is at his best when he has technically astute players in front of him which is why he was voted German National Team Player of The Year 5 times in 6 years.Giroud - No movement and pace and only dangerous when attacking balls in the box.Despite what is said his hold up play is awfull and goes to ground like he's been shot with a Buffalo Gun at the slightest contact.Walcott - Pace but no brain.The stats tell a better picture of a player who was NEVER good or consistent to ever be considered anything other than average at best.Wellbeck - Good pace and effort but little to offer as a goalscorer.Back - up at best.This is what Ozil has had to work with (I have photo shopped Sánchez from my life forever).

I can remember as a child my father taking my to see Stoke City who always out sang the away teams and the passion flowed through to their players, what's happend to Arsenal, what was the quote from Roy Keane Our club is in a downfall last nights Ossian average Gibbs - plays like a winger bel - looked out of his depth Mert NOT GOOD ENOUGH Kos can't play both Cb on his own Le coq found wanting in possession Welbeck 4th choice Utd plays ever week for us, says it all Sanchez poor last night tries to do too much Santii - felt sorry for him, tried, kept getting pulled back and no movement in front of him Ozil 1/2 things either he doesn't suit the premier or doesn't suit wenger approach GIroud not good enough no where near stevie wonder could see that And finally wenger 10 years ago ahead of his time, now NO PASSION, NO TACTICS, NO FEAR FACTOR, = no job

There is nothing foolish about a young French footballer such as Lacazette coming to Arsenal to play for Mr. Wenger in front of the brilliant German Ozil.

Hector bellerin I cnt really blame him I will blame wenger 1, for playing lazy ozil who has no work rate in front of him.

licence coach but you don't need that to see what wrong, we have arguably the strongest midfield In the country and a decent back 4 but the way we play doesn't get the best out of our players, I would play a front 3 of Sanchez welbeck and either chaimbo / Campbell Ozil / corzola / Ramsey just behind then Arteta and chambers as DM but when you play ozil or corzola wide we lose pace and cover for the fullback we have to many players who play NOzil / corzola / Ramsey just behind then Arteta and chambers as DM but when you play ozil or corzola wide we lose pace and cover for the fullback we have to many players who play Nozil or corzola wide we lose pace and cover for the fullback we have to many players who play No 10

Please idiots stop commenting on Giroud if you wish to finish 4 th then support him, if you want to win the PL the he had 4 chances 3 sitters, how many of those chances would Martinez, Falco, Cavani score that's the difference between a top side, and Wiltshire May as well sat at home with me, awful couldn't lace Febregas boots and never will, the balance of the side was good today although we had bo tempo and no focal point, swop play ozil in the middle leave Wiltshire off, and Sanchez left, and Cavani up front then play chambers DM SORTED

Time for some brutal honesty... this team, as it stands, is in no better position to compete next season than they were 12 months ago, minus the fact that some fans have been easily snowed by the acquisition of Lacazette, the free transfer LB and the release of Sanogo... if you look at the facts carefully you will see a team that still has far more questions than answers... to better show what I mean by this statement I will briefly discuss the current state of affairs on a position - by - position basis... in goal we have 4 potential candidates, but in reality we have only 1 option with any real future and somehow he's the only one we have actively tried to get rid of for years because he and his father were a little too involved on social media and he got caught smoking (funny how people still defend Wiltshire under the same and far worse circumstances)... you would think we would want to keep any goaltender that Juventus had interest in, as they seem to have a pretty good history when it comes to that position... as far as the defenders on our current roster there are only a few individuals whom have the skill and / or youth worthy of our time and / or investment, as such we should get rid of anyone who doesn't meet those simple requirements, which means we should get rid of DeBouchy, Gibbs, Gabriel, Mertz and loan out Chambers to see if last seasons foray with Middlesborough was an anomaly or a prediction of things to come... some fans have lamented wildly about the return of Mertz to the starting lineup due to his FA Cup performance but these sort of pie in the sky meanderings are indicative of what's wrong with this club and it's wishy - washy fan - base... in addition to these moves the club should aggressively pursue the acquisition of dominant and mobile CB to stabilize an all too fragile defensive group that has self - destructed on numerous occasions over the past 5 seasons... moving forward and building on our need to re-establish our once dominant presence throughout the middle of the park we need to target a CDM then do whatever it takes to get that player into the fold without any of the usual nickel and diming we have become famous for (this kind of ruthless haggling has cost us numerous special players and certainly can't help make the player in question feel good about the way their future potential employer feels about them)... in order for us to become dominant again we need to be strong up the middle again from Goalkeeper to CB to DM to ACM to striker, like we did in our most glorious years before and during Wenger's reign... with this in mind, if we want Ozil to be that dominant attacking midfielder we can't keep leaving him exposed to constant ridicule about his lack of defensive prowess and provide him with the proper players in the final third... he was never a good defensive player in Real or with the German National squad and they certainly didn't suffer as a result of his presence on the pitch... as for the rest of the midfield the blame falls squarely in the hands of Wenger and Gazidis, the fact that Ramsey, Ox, Sanchez and even Ozil were allowed to regularly start when none of the aforementioned had more than a year left under contract is criminal for a club of this size and financial might... the fact that we could find money for Walcott and Xhaka, who weren't even guaranteed starters, means that our whole business model needs a complete overhaul... for me it's time to get rid of some serious deadweight, even if it means selling them below what you believe their market value is just to simply right this ship and change the stagnant culture that currently exists... this means saying goodbye to Wiltshire, Elneny, Carzola, Walcott and Ramsey... everyone, minus Elneny, have spent just as much time on the training table as on the field of play, which would be manageable if they weren't so inconsistent from a performance standpoint (excluding Carzola, who is like the recent version of Rosicky — too bad, both will be deeply missed)... in their places we need to bring in some proven performers with no history of injuries... up front, although I do like the possibilities that a player like Lacazette presents, the fact that we had to wait so many years to acquire some true quality at the striker position falls once again squarely at the feet of Wenger... this issue highlights the ultimate scam being perpetrated by this club since the arrival of Kroenke: pretend your a small market club when it comes to making purchases but milk your fans like a big market club when it comes to ticket prices and merchandising... I believe the reason why Wenger hasn't pursued someone of Henry's quality, minus a fairly inexpensive RVP, was that he knew that they would demand players of a similar ilk to be brought on board and that wasn't possible when the business model was that of a «selling» club... does it really make sense that we could only make a cheeky bid for Suarez, or that we couldn't get Higuain over the line when he was being offered up for half the price he eventually went to Juve for, or that we've only paid any interest to strikers who were clearly not going to press their current teams to let them go to Arsenal like Benzema or Cavani... just part of the facade that finally came crashing down when Sanchez finally called their bluff... the fact remains that no one wants to win more than Sanchez, including Wenger, and although I don't agree with everything that he has done off the field, I would much rather have Alexis front and center than a manager who has clearly bought into the Kroenke model in large part due to the fact that his enormous ego suggests that only he could accomplish great things without breaking the bank... unfortunately that isn't possible anymore as the game has changed quite dramatically in the last 15 years, which has left a largely complacent and complicit Wenger on the outside looking in... so don't blame those players who demanded more and were left wanting... don't blame those fans who have tried desperately to raise awareness for several years when cracks began to appear... place the blame at the feet of those who were well aware all along of the potential pitfalls of just such a plan but continued to follow it even when it was no longer a financial necessity, like it ever really was...

So while his agent may have been planning to play hardball and call the bluff of Wenger about the possibility of a transfer away from Arsenal, Ozil spoke as if he has already signed a new deal as he talked about how much he was looking forward to next season, and especially providing assists for the new striker who has a well deserved reputation for being super cool in front of goal.

We need to play a front three of Cambpell, Sanchez and Ox The Ozil and Ramsey just behind and Chambers as a DM, the back four is what's left, then we get the guys to press all over the park, when in possession one touch and move the ball quick

I hope wenger sees these and benches ozil when he doesn't deliver to have a taste of Wilshere, but never wenger, he prefers his best on the pitch than giving willing and passionate players chances, the likes of Campbell, Gabriel, Gibbs instead of easy monreal, Perez shud av played more last season e.t.c, I hope to say xhaka, Ramsey, Wilshere in front of them, Sanchez / Perez if Sanchez goes, lacazette / welbeck upfront, giroud as sub, Gabriel along side koscielny and kolasinic, bellerin and gibbs / monreal as full backs, I want szesny back as back up to cech and Martinez as understudy.................. but I won't get it cos it is wenger......... smh

I agree about the taking on of players, we play everything in front unless Ozil can see a ball beyond the back - line.

I wonder how arsene prepares our team for them to produce such lacklustre performances.Its very perplexing for us to lose or draw against poor teams like chelski and looserpool.I was always a wenger out due to I being a frustrated fan.When our players are on the pitch they show no desire and no hunger at all.They produce such mediocre performances in front of fans whove paid so much to watch these games.It makes you womder why on earth they have such heavy salaries only to put on a flabbougasting show in front of 55000 fans.Its very ironical that we here on this site shower praise on such performances.players like ozil recieve such unwarranted praise you might think they are from another planet.Then we have an extremely overrated english core of gibbs ox and walcott Sorry to say this but players like draxler and rodrigiez are twice these players.This is food for thought for you who support the team blindly due to wengers compulsion that makes you believe that we are playing the worlds finest brand of football and have a large array of talent that excused him for not going into the transfer market as at the moment we are currently losing the clubs most coveted round of 16 trophy and putting such dissapointing performances in the league.

I think when we play Walcott as a No 9 in front of Ozil, Sanchez, Rambo... the interchange of positions between them will make it a nightmare for any team to defend.

We can play a front three of Giroud Lacazette and Sanchez / Ozil in some games.

He should not play Ozil in front of Bellerin like he did against Dortmund.

The combination of Ozil and Lacazette playing in front of him will give Arsenal the edge over other teams.

Would play Calum Chambers and Flam in front of back four, with Rambo, Ozil and Campbell in MF.
