Sentences with phrase «poor team playing for»

Is anyone enjoying this, we look a poor team playing for a draw so wenger can come out with the usual crap

Not exact matches

He just point a fact, the core of the team are average british players and yes the blame lays on Wenger first for playing them out of position with poor tactic but also by making them the first teamer when their level is not good enough to win big stuff.

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?

Leo you said remy was crap against spuds but you have got to consider who he is playing with he is in a very poor team who create nothing for him put him in our team and with chances we create he will score goals he is a natural goalscorer and i think he would do a great job in girouds absence, think we should keep podolski for extra cover in forward area be realistic we will not get falcao or cavarni therefore remy would not be the worse option!!

Jack was poor for the majority of the 2013 - 2014 campaign in his preferred position, was then played out of position wide in an effort to be played into form (at the expense of the team mind you) and that's okay.

AKB please answer this, this season we have played the poorest spuds team for years at home and drew and today the poorest Man U team in years and lost.in Wenger we trust yeah fu # k off?

I get your point mate.But in truth Ramsey is the CM and Xhaka is the DM according to our formation anf tactic.It's even debatable if Xhaka is capable of playing DM.I think Ramsey's tactical awareness is poor but he has every right to take risks and move into the opposition box.He's a box to box player.The only problem is Ramsey overdoes it.If we had a proper CDM the team would be more balanced.Now it's like we have two CM's playing in midfield and due to their poor tactical awareness we're always left exposed.I conclude by reminding people that Wilshere is better footballer and is more intelligent than Xhaka.It'll be better playing Wilshere and pairing him with a CDM than having Xhaka play there.He just gets to play over him becausr we signed him for # 35.

Fekir can play on the right, he can play in the same team as Auba and Laca if form dictates a 1st teamer should be dropped, for example Ozil or Mkhi need to be benched due to poor form.

Debuchy and El Nent were poor with passing and did nothing to improve their chances to play for first team?

lol they have to be playing for us to know if they are concentrating, AW must be nuts if his saving Sanchez from a burn out for what and who, Sanchez is going in two months time so use him let him burn out in January in Manchester FFS every team uses their players back from internationals apart from us, poor Ramsy poor Sanchez they don't qualify for the WC who gives a fluck do we deduct their salaries?

But I have been saying the same thing about Sanchez since last season, his first game in the Charity shield and then that game against Villa earlier last season when he played striker, I noticed that he was so poor in possession and can't link up play with his team mates, he has the worst passing for a player of his calibre..

Another interesting statistic in defence of Ozil, would be that football is a team sport, and that it's sometimes hard for certain individuals to perform at their normal level when you're playing in a weakened team due to injuries or because your team is a generally poor side.

donkey though he is, works hard and plays for the team but he also frustrates me immensely with his poor touches, cant dribble and cant score in BIG games.

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... Ox, who has never played better, which isn't saying much considering his largely underwhelming play in previous seasons, seems to have found a home in this new formation; unfortunately, can we really expect this oft - injured player to handle the taxing duties that come with said position over the long haul, not to mention, it looks like he has no intention of staying... 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's)

Big in your list I can agree that all these players would improve us, but let's look at our CB At the moment Kos, top player but is struggling with a inj which may or may not heal, at the moment he isn't match fit so not up to his own high standard, so needs help or a defender of his quality so he can go and recover properly So then we have Mert, too slow and no longer good enough, I'm not sure if he's even good enough for 3 rd choice CB, too slow, poor on the air for his size and not brave enough, he's lasted this long due to Kos he needs a Top class CB just to allow him to play against average teams Ok now Reid not top class we can all agree so we couldn't really play him with MERT as he isn't Kos quality so can't cover merits deficiencys He could be ok with Kos but Kos is struggling So is Reid what we need???? And finally Wenger if he has all 3 fit will still play Kos / Mert first choice Oh and God forbid we play MERT / Reid against the top teams like Chels / city / utd / Southampton Chuckle chuckle

I think next game Ramsey needs to play in Cazorlas position, Cazorla was poor in few games, he should be rested, Walcott should start instead of him, maybe even Ozil switch for Wilshere, Wilshere played very well, many people critisize him, but only OX and him has that ability to go through players and drive our team forward.

Deny it all you want but since Fabregas left Arsenal our frre flowing football has really declined.It feels like am the only one who thinks we lack real penetration and ideas in the final third of opponents.Also in 14/15 sesson I lost count of our misplaced passes and poor gameplay overall.We've been very very poor in our passing game for some seasons now.For a game like this to work you need players whonhold the ball very well and are possession efficient.Look at the Arsenal starting lineup and compare it to that of years back and you'll know what I mean.We have very few possession efficient players which is causing this problem.We don't have many players who can actually hold the ball and play the ball.That's what differentiates us from the top passing teams.

Watched a few clips of Wellington Silva recently, its sad his playing for a poor club like Bolton, hopefully we send him to a better team next season for his continued development.

Truth is many Arsenal fans are living in denial, that's why you get so many thumbs down for telling it as it is.Apart from the 2 goals we scored, yesterday's performance was poor considering that we were playing a hull B team at home.We kept them in the game for long periods of time instead of being incisive and finishing them off early when we had the chances.

us scoring in the dying minutes wil keep the overall mood of the team good for UCL... This team played good attacking football but we need DM against Bayern... Case has been a bit poor lately but hopefully zidane trusts him and starts him...

What that teaches us is this, one bad signing can destroy a team season, Xhaka possesses none of the credential Arsenal need his lack of stamina effects his ability to move up the pitch and distribute the ball and hence close the opposition down, his poor acceleration put him in at a massive disadvantage in taking on the one on one chase back toward his goal, his sluggish tackling causes him to get sent off and his poor positioning allow the opposition plenty of space to exploit, Xhaka overall style of play is going to cause Arsenal huge problems for the foreseeable future.

literally saying he is prone to many mistakes for instance goal misses (1 on 1), retaining possession, hold up play, poor goal conversion rate against a «formidable team», inaccurate passes, struggles when backing a defender (s) and he's not good in the air.

This confounded the already poor confidence our team was playing with and we became even more sloppy with the ball, creating more and more chances for Spurs.

Aside from the poor transfers over 10 years, the complete lack of tactics, one dimensional football, being predictable, playing players out of position, playing players who should be benched, over playing players (ongoing injuries), not motivating the team, poor youth academy, bad formations set up for under - performing players and over reliance on tikka tikka possession football, no he hasn't done much wrong!

Thank you for saying what is obvious.The team's defending problems is more of tactial than the personnel.I'd be mad if Wenger got another CB because we'll be getting the same outcome due to his poor tactics.Give Mustafi, Koscielny and Chambers to Simeone and see how they play.We need most important ly a DM and not a CM.Our CM's wil play better and I feel with proper motivation and mangement are good enough.What we lack is a DM who can drive with the ball and get himself out of trouble.

By selecting the best players which excludes the likes of Czech and Mustafi.They are the common denominators in virtually all the away defeats to sides below Arsenal in the league.I am not a lover of stats but these are the facts which Wenger chooses to ignore.There is absolutely no point in strengthening other parts of the team for example by replacing Wilsh ere and continuing to play Czech and Mustafi.A team is only as good as it's poorest player and in Czech and Mustafi we have two of the poorest exponents in their positions in the Premier League.

Unless there is a huge gulf in class with us playing against a really poor team, we should kick goal kicks long and we should try for balls over the top, that way we are either creating a chance or we are giving them the possession so we can set up to counter.

the team has been playing rubbish for years now, they are urged to improve every now and then after poor performances, and still they are reminded again and again, don't you think something needs to change?

This should be our team: Cech Bellerin Koscielny Mustafi Kolasinac Ramsey Elneny / Coquelin Sanchez Ozil Iwobi / Ox Lacazette Wenger must take Xhaka out of the lineup because he can't defend.Don't blame Xhaka for a poor performance tomorrow if he's overrun.He can't play in this kind of matches.It'll be too intense for him and we'll be overrun.He's massively overrated and another player will surpass him in the future.This lineup will also bring the best in some of our players like Kolasinac and Ozil.

Saying Ozil has been poor for us is an understatement, in fact he has been very woeful for the past 10 matches and I totally agree with you that we have been playing 10 against 11 all these while, he just can't fight for the ball or his life and whenever he doesn't play very well, he puts the whole team in big danger and i still don't know why Araene can drop him for at least 2 matches and play Iwobi in his position

Let's face it, it's a poor excuse for Giroud not being fit, he's a professional fr crying out loud and players who played the same amount of games as he did in the world cup are back their teams and are looking much sharper.

Lately, we have made all our opponents look like quality teams and that's mainly down to our own poor display, but for Wenger to suggest that Sutton can play at the same pace as the premier league is beyond delusional?

Preseason projections still account for 30 percent of teams» ratings, which doesn't help, but neither do Arizona's poor performance against UTSA or Utah's plodding offense, which has been outgained by the opponent, on a per - play basis, in every game so far.

Wenger blamed the 12 day gap between games as the reason for Arsenal's poor start against Liverpool a few weeks ago, then he claimed a lack of confidence for the start against Lincoln last week, but as most of our first team played last weekend and scored many goals in the second half then neither of those should apply this time around.

Only way we can go fight with other 4 teams for 2nd and 3rd spot is to bring draxler, gotseka and Luis this winter and unload Sanchez who poisons team as he is not with us for almost a year now... He was played center to stay last year but already fed up with poor team addition and to do all on his own, score, make differences and lose at the end...

And for Aaron, if we're being honest, he hasn't been playing well lately, except for the first half yesterday against a poor Gala team.

I have watched so many Chelsea matches in which Matic was caught out of position with poor finishing by opponents saving him the blushes, while Wanyama will be a regular red card candidate if he were to play for a team like Arsenal.

Well your righ with met spend but in amount paid out for players no net were 5th but i agree our champions league performances have been poor we had some tough draws and the premier league is more demanding then the other leagues in strwnght of competition and games played still excuses do nt win but that monaco loss left me shaking my head in cl we get theough the group but cant muster the strength needed for knockout and we should be performing better were under performing for the talent xhaka has frustrated me hes got the talent and plays well but cant hold focus in games he drops off and loses his marks our academy is doing well but yes it is tougher now to break in to the first team iwobi has done well but one or two seasons away from being there if he does turn himself elite ever has to score or he will just be another ox but i think its been a wake up call to the club we finally have to act theres a wave of ideas to not only get us back to winning ways but become title contenders and i think give him the extension one year its a world cup year and that will also allow our players esp strikers who been very poor this year realized its tough to play in englad and next year will have a better idea what it really takes to win here shore up some spots and depth and were in contention fail and the changes will happen but let him have one more year the fact were willing to spend shows me an upturn from the decline

He thinks he can get Arsenal playing like the 1970s Ajax team that he's obsessed with unfortunately for Mr Wenger they had Johan Cruyff, Rudd Geels, Johan Neeskens and Johnny Rep etc we have Aaron Ramsey, Granit Xhaka, and Alex Iwobi not exactly in the mould of those greats but try telling this dried up old has been that, the same man who stuck with Manuel Almunia for years even though the poor chap looked like crying at any moment..

I feel so sorry for Necastle though.It could have been an exciting match.They have some exceptional players like Coloccini, Sissoko, Mbemba and so on.Arsenal was very poor.Its was a poor performance from me.The team continues to look awkward and the manager too the same.Excuse me to say but we pass and play senselessly at times and it was shown today too.The mental barrier has not been overcome yet.

However they are a pretty poor team and I liked Serge when he played for us.

Sanchez / Welbeck Lacazette I want us to play 4 -3-3 so that we can match Liverpool in the midfield as I don't want us to be overrun.Xhaka can't defend and he should not start this match and if possible all other matches for the rest of the season.Coquelin's tackles has caused us to score some goals every single season he's been here and I think we've missed that this season.I just don't know why he's been left on the bench because if paired with the right partner can be used in a very defensive sense to great effect.Our team is so poor tactically.

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.

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

I think Giroud Is a ok forward he as come a far way and I think he will get there my problem is how long he will take he had a bad game we all have bad days at work I can't quite say the say for Ozil (yes he played through the middle) I think we should sell him and call it a lost he is very very poor since he became a arsenal player and this is where maurinho will always get my respect because he couldn't be playing like that in a maurinho team.

Playing a depleted LeBron - lead team in the second round was the best - case scenario for the Bulls, and a piss - poor defensive game plan from a coach known for his defensive «genius» cost them.

Poor David Ospina has been resigned to being Arsenal's Cup keeper for the last couple of seasons, but surely a stopper of his quality should be looking to play for a top team every week and he will probably try to engineer a move away this summer.
