OG
plays with back to goal for many minutes during the game.
Not exact matches
Bottom line, if he is angered bench the players who were not good enough and
play those who deserve some game time based on the Southampton game or on games where they had a positive impact: - Take Özil out and
play Ox in the hole (he has
to understand your the highest paid player of the club, your given freedom like nobody else and your even seeking even more money
with a new contract you can't
play like that ever and go AWOL)- Put Sanchez on the wing or up top but put Welbeck in (Walcott didn't track
back near enough
for the Alsonso
goal)- Iwobi has been bright from the wing let him
play there - Xhaka has
to go
back in the holding midfield role and I would take out Coquelin because he could've taken a foul on the hazard's
goal.
Wenger said, «I try
to transform it, yes because I feel because he was injured
for a long time and he has the physical potential
to win the challenges,
to face the game will be easier
for him than
to play with his
back to goal with the injuries he had.
When we fell behind 2 - 1,
playing with 10 men, I was thinking this would be one of those games where we would be in
for another drubbing, but credit
to the players, they fought
back and managed
to pull a
goal back, and
with some luck we could even nick a win at the end.....
Im all
for backing our players but Giroud better than Higuain is buffoonery don't be fooled because he
plays for Napoli he's maintained a
goal every 2 games ratio his whole career and he's a special finisher
with our midfield he would be unstoppable Aguero didn't used
to get benched
for the national team
for him
for no reason
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
With the types of
backs FSU has you could have them
playing in the slot
for a few
plays, hit a big
play then condense
to this set at the
goal line in HUNH and have slot corners trying
to play LB on the
goal line.
Vidal is a box
to box he is not a DM and a DM we need... let me put it like this Vidal will try grab glory by getting
goals (much like flamini) we will not take up true glory like Coquelin who knows his job is not
to attack but
to protect our
back 4... not go
for gaols but look hold up
play when we are getting hit
with a counter until the rest of the team get
back into
play... Someone who will get battered and bruised but not lose his temper or cool but instead battle get in good tackles and disturb the opponents Rhythm...
In all honesty Arsenal
played well we had very good position
with loads of chances and 13 corner kicks how come we are so crappy at scoring corners???? We need
to start scoring the chances we get from corners we could have easily beat southhampton by 4
goals but forster was good he got the 3 points off us MR wenger should go
back to the drawing board as he has some options one of witch could the calling of welington silva or a reshuffle bring iwobi in elneny or new methods in tactics as in picking players and rehearse attacks strategy As
for the referee I
to felt done by him there was on particular foul on sanches that was not giving at the end we need
to register our efforts and be clinical
But he is also calling
for the players
to see the clash
with Man United as a chance
to start again and get
back to the way we were
playing, scoring
goals for fun and cutting out the defensive mistakes that used
to be much more common.
Back home where he belongs, in front of the fans he's been wanting
to play for, surrounded by cool heads
with enough winning experience,
with a 3 -
goal advantage, and all the obvious talent he possesses... i know he'll do great.
... he
played there against crystal palace, Everton 2 season ago and it was a disaster... our build up is majorly done closer
to d centre circle than d oppositions box... that's y girouds hold up
play is vital... either we go
with dat path or we look
for a striker who is lightning quick (so when we make d final pass, it doesn't get wasted), uses both legs
to shoot on sight,
with good accuracy...
playing Sanchez, who is not very good
with his
back to goal as a 9 is useless and though fast, holds on
to d ball a lot tryn
to get d best angle
to shoot... we need a striker who is very intelligent
with d timing of his runs... too bad Walcott is as intelligent as a sheep, cld have been d perfect cf...
Comes on from the bench, makes 3
back passes before committing 3 individual mistakes which result in 2 conceded
goals, limps off after
playing 35 minutes
to waste our second sub, all this
for a CDM
with zero tackles won
to his name!
The Arsenal
played well we had over 70 % position of the ball
with something like 27 attacks were 8 were on target burnly had a game plan and that game plan was about hurting our players ankles and they got away scot free
with it yet xaka gets red?????? Yes they were diddling about when that happened but compare it
to the challenge on ozil and he was on
goal yes koscienly came
back from an offside position but the high boot on the head was dangerous I thought Arsenal
played well and controlled the game well even when we were put under pressure in our own half when you look at the penalty awarded
to them you will see a dive as coquelin barely touched him how many time did they push kosscielny of the ball???? hope he is ok as he was looking like he had a thigh problem I like the
back four of todays as Gabriel did ok specially when we went down
to ten men >> > I salute our Arsenal
for wining the game on the 97 minit
with only 10 men on the field What an iced cold penalty scored by Alexis
Sanzhez
played in the confederation cup lead Chile
to a win (after being such a big part of our season)
to come
back 2 weeks after (when most have had a good rest) didn't get
to settle fully then got injured sine then he has not been at his best (bad season
for him) Ozil
for me has had a near great season scored a assist 18 +
goals what more can you ask
for... you are trying
to put the way Giroud is useless 70 % of the time and compare
with two people who have made us better..
For giroud to score a goal like that he must be high on confidence hence base in current form I will start him against bayern with Sanchez and a fit welbeck running the flanks ragged defensively and offensively, we all know ozil plays well when carzola is playing along side coquelin with the back 4 of kostafi and Bellreal and cech to win the game for us with superb save

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
i think this could officially be the start of the end
for wenger his blind arrogance has cause him
to buy welbeck in the sheer belief that AGAINST THE ODDS HE CAN BEAT THE REST OF THE BIG 4
WITH ONE ARM BEHIND HIS
BACK we should be buying top top top european c / l standard players not sunderland spuds everton standard players thats about welbecks standard of club in all truthful reality he is an honest hard working player but wenger thinks he can coach the mediocrity out of him he is truely insane its a guaranteed source of goals we need not more fancy hold up play and «pace» and missing chance after chance so the postman is to be joined by the manchester metro tram absolute disgrace he has kidded on ozil and sanchez they must be wondering what is going on atm they are seeing the true wenger now just panicking and not panicking very well to that effect and for some reason wenger has gone all kinky for english players for some strange reason at least chambers has great potential welbeck has past that stage and is a seasoned pro now and he is no where near what we need wenger is trying to show how great he is by whiping the back out of the same players week after week in the vain hope that he can win the league without rotating ever and they will get injured and he wont have learned his lesson and we will pay for it in the end best last day transfer would have been a 4 year contract for k

What I feel the people here want is
to do away
with style of
play AW has set up because even when Welbeck
played lone striker many times he was
back to goal for the link up
for many of the one twos
with the midfield.
We need some midfielders that can be strong and battle
for us!!!! al our midfield are forward thinking and there is such a big hole from them and the
back 4, It does not matter who we have
playing at the
back we will always get attacked
with goals against us
with the style of midfielders we have, Let get some steel in the middle of the park, Lets bring in some players that other teams feel fear
playing against us, Look
back at our best teams and we have always had players that will get
back and cover and can tackle and win balls in the middle of the park, So many of our midfield now can, t even get
back never mind win the ball
back when we need it, It is NOT about the price of players it is all about buying players that can balance a good strong team, At time we need
to buy a player who is not a star but is good at doing what we need him
to do,
i dot even like watching us
play anymore bfg and flamini cant be on at same time when other teams see them on the team sheet they know if they counter us well enough they can do us over and famini trying
to play rugby and kicking the ball
for trys every attempt on
goal its frustrating
to watch and that bfg now omg a ever so slight breeze can get a ball around him if giroud came one on one
with mert he would have a field day the only way im
playing him is if we park the bus
with 5 at the
back
A striker who is both fast and can
play with his
back to goal is my other want... but there ain't a huge number of them and I doubt we'll pay beyond the odds
for it.
I must give a word
for Giroud, I use
to criticize him but this year the guy turned himself in a world class striker.
For me he eas the best in the league when he came
back.His luck was that he came
back in time of many injuries and he was able
to play with fast wingers around him and no slow, weak guies like he has last year.He had just
to run in the surface and bang the
goals from the cross.
Hayes went
back to his old smashing game and the head knocking was fierce as the Bucks hammered away
with the Huskies until,
with 59 seconds
to play, Bob Funk kicked a 27 - yard field
goal to win
for Ohio State 23 - 21.
I do nt know why im so disappointed i keep thinking every window he will do it splash big bring
back the old days and especially this window
with all the abuse he had got last season but no did nothing im the fool
for getting my hopes up again you would think id learn by now, if we did pull off lemar and kept sanchez after buying lacazette and kolasanic id be delighted but keeping an unhappy sanchez isnt good hopefully some forgien club will come in
for him in January but what happened at Liverpool was a disgrace i cant take any more its ruining my mood im depressed in disbelief at how stupid and soft centred we were making the exact same mistakes
for 8 or 9 yrs ground hog day i cant cope we have leaked 8
goals in 3 games very worrying and the clown wont even
play kolasanic i wanted wenger
to spend big go out in a blaze of glory in 2 yrs time but this is embarrassing
to me it looks like a money racket and we are the fools
Qualities: Giroud - Hold up (but not against top defenders Tery, Cahil, etc), short pass, hard working, team player, defensive duties (set - pieces), injuries Benteke - Hold up, short pass, better dribbler, long shots, finishing, positioning, defensive duties (set - pieces), can
play with his
back to the
goal and also drop deep and face the
goal when marked weakness: Giroud - very slow, easily marked, poor finishing (not wc finisher), technique Benteke - injuries, not a hard worker If you look the stats
for the since 2012/2013, they have almost similar records except that Benteke scored like total of 19
goals (correct me if I'm wrong) in his 1st season and also have a decent record against top teams, keep in mind he
plays for AstonVilla not Arsenal where you get much more chances and better players around.
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.
How many
goals have we conceded due
to his continual failure
to track
back with his man?We are desperate for someone to play as a CDM and we will continue to have a soft underbelly until a top draw player is introduced.Elneny sat deep for the 2nd half of the semi-final against Chelski and we immediately looked more compact and solid.The Back 4 had protection and we were rarely under pressure.Elneney is not the long term answer and is a squad player at best but he is more solid than Xhaka defensively although not as capable when in possess

An unfit alexis looses the ball a lot but it don't matter coz xhaka will loose it way more as ozil waits
for the ball and monreal
backs off and let's anyone run threw on
goal aswell as the weak mentality of kicking the ball out of
play for no reason and not even trying
to argue
with the officials we might as well chuck Alexis in and out him in
goal then put giroud at CB!
You could mention how coq would be
back to cover, but he will be preoccupied Chelsea as i mentioned earlier will not
play Oscar up front, Drogba is fit we all know what he is capable of, even if he doesn't get anywhere near the ball, he is a proven striker in the league
with an eye
for goal, and ridiculously overpowered and still quick
for his age, if his on the pitch his job would be
to draw coq away from the heart of the midfield.
As we are looking
for goals I think Wenger will stick
with the 4 -3-3 he used in midweek, and I'm hoping that Chambers will replace Laurent Koscielny as centre -
back as our captain looks in desperate need of a rest, and I am begging
for Coquelin
to play alongside Wilshere
with Xhaka on the bench.
That chambers recked my head far
to many mistakes today and
to be fair he wasn't at fault
for all the
goals because the
goals came from the runners running into the box you have
to have people picking these runners When I am on the pitch
playing I get annoyed because defenders are very close
to me so i seat
back and wait
for that moment
to run into the space
with a
goal no one would even see me but that is on the local field and not on professional level come on seriously I can except cotinou free kick but elanas
goal and cotinou second even mane the way he ran in
for goal as if he was a hot knife cutting through butter unacceptable these mistakes are school errors 3 errors on the same match
to much
to digest
Even after the gift of an own
goal by Craig Dawson gave the spuds the lead at White Hart Lane against a team
with nothing
to play for, the pressure was evident in the Spurs side and they were pegged
back.
I'm furious
for that savic kid, go check him out; same exact situation; Lazio won't let him go under 60 millions, if we can put thaty in lemar who will get injured
with his
play and physical already shakiy inFrance; call it a day... Due was at Genk, 9 millions, just like De Bruine few years
back; dissed by chelsea kicked
back to Wolsburg, he be a legend in Arsenal, captain later
for sure... Anyway, today we have these oppotunity, Lozano is right there, 7 games, 7
goals in Europe debut... Watch his video as that beast
for our middle....
And
with Falcao
back to full fitness and already among the
goals for Monaco in Ligue 1, some have claimed that the former Arsenal captain may have
to play second fiddle
to him as the season progresses.
Florentin and Mathias later departed
for the Celta Vigo academy after making their own way through the Parisian youth football scene — their respective careers seeing them parted soon after
with the more defensive sibling heading
back to France
to play in Ligue 1 while his
goal - getting twin became a modern - day journeyman.
After Piqué's
goal put Barça up, 3 — 0,
with just ten minutes
to play, Roma striker Edin Dzeko pulled one
back before Luis Suárez added a late fourth
for Els Blaugranes.
Despite Eric Paartalu grabbing a
goal back for the hosts on the 88th minute, not
to mention Sydney midfielder Milos Dimitrijevic's red card
with a minute remaining, the away side were able
to play out injury time and secure the victory.
He also
played a big part in the fourth
goal with a dribbling run that showed his close control and strength before
playing a through ball
for Alex Oxlade - Chamberlain whose cut
back was deflected toward Alexis Sanchez
to turn home.
While Arsenal gave up a third
goal in the second half, the team eventually stabilized,
with the midfield providing the platform
for Arsenal
to play more directly and come
back in the last twenty minutes.
As
for other Premier league games which were
played on Saturday, Sunderland away at Crystal Palace scored four
goals, Everton celebrated in
goals galore game against Bournemouth 6 - 3, while West Ham United bounced
back to the winning ways
with a 3 - 1 away win at Southampton, after going behind early in the game.
His versatility shows why he is so in - demand, as he is able
to play as a centre -
back and a defensive midfielder, while he also possesses an eye
for goal having chipped in
with three strikes this season.
Icardi is the archetypal big - game player and loves
playing against Juve,
with seven
goals in nine league matches against the champions, stretching
back to a brace scored
for Sampdoria
back in January 2013.
By his own admission he was at fault
for Leicester's second
goal, but he bounced
back to play a crucial role in our dramatic fightback,
with his left foot setting up our third and fourth
goals.
With the arrival of Olivier Giroud and Lukas Podolski it was going
to be even more difficult
for Vela in the Arsenal striking pecking order and having spent a year maturing at Real Sociedad a move
back to the Basque club is a sensible one.In his 62 apprearances
for us he has managed
to score 11
goals where his appreance has mostly been off the bench or in carling cups.Vela has represented Mexico at every youth level,
playing at the Under - 17 and Under - 20 World Cups, and was a part of the senior side
for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
Icardi seems
to have been instructed
to play very strong
with his
back to the net, hold up the ball
for as long as positive and then distribute out wide which once again encourages the
play down the middle.This very strong central philosophy may not be the most complimentary style
to Mauro Icardi's journey
to being top
goal scorer of the league but it
played such a crucial role in getting a wide variety of different players on the score sheet instead of relying on Icardi and Perisic.
Broke all
goals conceded records in the Champions League
with a rebuilt
back 4 and lost the final only because we had
to play for 72 minutes
with ten men.
if this deal happens, it will be my pleasure as a LFC fan because apparently we lack a striker who can score 20
goals and above from ever since Suarez and Sturradge did it, so far it is 2 seasons
back, SUAREZ left and Sturradge started getting injuries and now
with the available strikers, believe me there is no one who can be able
to score 20
goals and above even if he is given chance
to play all the 38 matches.so as the one who can do it is injury prone, sell one (Benteke) at 25 - 30million pounds and buy Slimani at 25 - 30million euros, good deal.LFC has good attacking midfielders who can create chances
for him.
Also, its very likely that both wingers will swap sides throughout the game
to switch up
play and exploit the full
backs and provide Kane and possibly Dembele
with ammunition
for goals.
