Save if the present Gunners save themselves from going out of this season Ucl to Barcelona, the Boss and the Arsenal Board MUST re focus their focus on revamping the Arsenal
squad with some additions of top
quality players from where ever they can find them to replace the dead woods, the injury proners, the past it, the can't make it, the too average, the not Ucl
quality, the 1 or 2 matches performance players, the low class ones, the uninteligent ones, the lazy ones but swallowing up vast wages of Arsenal money, the cave -
in big games players and the boastful but lackluster players
in big games who are presently
at Arsenal now.
He must not be sold.He's also better than a lot of Chelsea youngsters.That's not enough basis for him to be sold.
At top form he's better than Pedro, Moses and Willain.These are players whose main strength is dribbling and he tops them there no doubt.I remember him
in one season having the highest dribble success rate percentage
in the EPL.All he needs is to develop a level of consistency.A lot of their youngsters have potential but most won't be good as the Ox.The Ox himself has not reached full potential yet.He hasn't developed a certain level of consistency.Him also being a
squad player is because of those above him.Those above him are all
quality players.This won't be smart business
at all.He's just going to destroy himself
in another club and after being patient with him we are now deciding to sell him?
In turn, depending on the opposition and what Valverde feels suits the players at his disposal best, Barca have a lot of quality in the squad and it would be a surprise to not see them competing for major honours this season regardless of whether or not they were able to land all of their top targets this summe

we need to sacrifice
at least 2 of the skilled diminutive players
in mid for 2 strong
Quality players > now I am not a huge fan of Wilshere I feel he is over rated but I admit he has relent but not the type of player Arsenal really need to have a balanced
squad.
«One of the good things with the way the
squad is now is that there is so much
quality in numbers that the boss can pick from boys who are fresher than others
at times, so that helps as well.
Who also saw that Wenger has no real interest
in building the
squad with
quality,
at that time!
I quite agree sell all the deadwoods but which player
in his right mind would want to come to arsenal
at the moment, remember people man u was
in the same situation under moyes but we're able to attract better player's even when not playing champions league, the selling point from arsenal point of view is to tell players which they are trying to get what the plan is of getting back to top flight football by going for the Europa league over the FA cup and finishing
in the top six otherwise if they go for wishy - washy arsene wenger stupid attitude of we've got
quality all the
squad we are competing for everything then I'm afraid We will end up with nothing
I personally think the problem is
at the moment we have not got the best
squad we could possibly have
in a few positions we have not got
quality to replace
quality with that where we have fallen short on the title a few times
in the past
The Nittany Lions are a Playoff -
quality team
at this point and can hammer that point home against a punchless Michigan
squad that destroyed them
in their last meeting.
«[We want] to create chances like we always do but
at the same time make sure that with the guys they have
in their
squad and the
quality they've got [that we can] stop them.
I mean look
at carzola, he says outright without hiding that we need a striker... about finishing strongly, we did that last season and the season after and the other after after a first leg screw - up... maybe ramsey loves his friends
in the dressing room but saying that we need a few
quality wouldn't have hurt anyone... we weren't able to beat the chelsea that hez talking about
at home even with a full
squad so i don't get his reference plus other teams are strengthening strongly and will only get better... man utd with a mediocre team played us like we were some kids FH
at OT and we had no injuries... IF WE DO NT SIGN STRIKER we are doomed cz it» l be harder to beat even the small teams
Man city will certainly bring
in two
quality players so will have to wait and see... Lpool probably a stronger
squad now but still seem to lack
quality options... Spurs seem clueless
at moment... So without two serious signings we will not be challenging for top honours... Fitness is important but not a substitute for
quality
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
We do need to add some
Quality to our
squad, Especially if we're still
in every competition, Because
at moment our subs bench looks rather weak and bare.
Long regarded as one of the best
in the world
in his position, the Spaniard should make a great addition
at Old Trafford, providing real experience and battling
qualities to this relatively youthful
squad.
While he adds
quality and depth
in the Gunners midfield following the departures of Mathieu Flamini, Mikel Arteta and Tomas Rosicky, Wenger will arguably be looking
at other areas of his
squad to strengthen moving forward.
In the instance a superb player Z appears on the market, we may attempt to buy him to increase our
squad quality, but not
at the detriment to the team.
A lack of
quality in depth
in the current
squad could also be blamed for that as Milan have played a lot of games this season already having had to also deal with Europa League qualifiers
at the start of the campaign, and so perhaps that is also catching up with them.
But
at the moment we, IMO have the most
quality, deep
squad we've had
in a long time, looking
in a solid position to retain the F.A. Cup and ultimately an excellent season despite a disappointing start.
It's of a Arsenal manager who
at the start of the new season has ensured that a
squad of sufficient
quality and depth has been put
in place by scouting players
in positions where the team has been found to be lacking
in the previous season.
Given the depth and
quality that Mauricio Pochettino has
in his
squad, it's unlikely that he'll be desperate to hang on to the defender, while Saints boss Claude Puel continues to look
at ways to strengthen the
squad inherited from Ronald Koeman.
If true, that will be a massive boost for Conte, as the Roma stars will address two key issues with the current Chelsea
squad in terms of bolstering their attacking options and adding
quality and cover
at left back.
No title challenge
at all, we've gone backwards
in Europe, players will be leaving
in the summer... yeah, I think we definitely need some
quality squad depth, and one, maybe two for the starting XI.
We will win game because
at the end, we have
quality in the team, but we won't win the league or the CL (unreachable objective and too difficult with our limited
squad and delusional manager).
I would prefer to sign him permanently
in the summer rather than on loan
in the winter.He is a great talent and could really shine
in the epl with us.Yeah he is not the kind of superstar that ozil was when we signed him but that does not mean that he is not a top
quality player.He could really be a good fit into our team.But I can guarantee you that signing draxler alone next summer will not bring us the epl title.The
squad needs strengthening
in at least 2 - 3 positions to win the title
in what could actually be wenger's farewell season.Going back to draxler though, without a doubt he will only make the
squad stronger but I just hope that he is one of the many players heading towards the emirates next season to help us win the title, regardless of where MESU - LEXIS are cum next august....
The best case scenario for Arsenal would be a new
Quality manager who is given 5 years to get this club back on track because with our budget it will take
at least 5 years to undo the damage done by Wenger particlularly if you take
in consideration the age of our
squad, the departure of Sanchez and Ozil and the absence of CL football.
In turn, that has forced the Chilean tactician to field Raheem Sterling as his striker at times, and evidently it appears as though he has acknowledged that he needs more depth and quality in his squad in that are

In addition to those two, it's added that Barca boss Valverde also wants to add Inigo Martinez to his
squad this month, as the 26 - year - old Real Sociedad defender would add
quality and depth
at the back too as he looks to find the right balance rather than splash all the cash he has on attack - minded players.
i blame Wenger for building the
squad but he can do Notting with these player look
at the defense
in quality
I mentioned before how throwing a bunch of players into a team and hoping they gel together is not the right approach, however even with all the additions, say three or four additional
quality signings, even if they don't necessary gel well altogether
at once
in the team, their presence to improve the
squad is noticed, especially
in squad depth.
Nwakali is a forward or wing player, nothing like kante and Ramsey is a
squad player for me not first team
quality, if Carzola is fit, him and xhaka would be a mouth watering fit but with Arsenals Injurie luck this seems inlikely but i wounder if the five
at the back would work if we play a stubborn team that defends, i hope Arsene would change the formation
in such games back to 4 -2-3-1 but this would require a proper rght wing which we havent had
in years, we've had OX, Campell, Wallcot, Iwobi, Ramsey, Welbeck and Ozil play
in that position and non of them have made it their own like sanchez has with the left wing
Handanovic would bring a wealth of experience and
quality to the
squad which
in turn makes the transfer link no real surprise, but given how highly regarded he is
at Inter, it would take a significant offer to prise him away from the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza.
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
And if living
in lala land is improving the
squad by investing
in quality players
at the expense of those who no longer should be guaranteed 1st team football than I shudder @ what universe you currently dwell
in.
With
quality severely lacking
in Chivas»
squad at the moment, the bitter rivalry between Tigres and Monterrey can claim to be the most exciting derby
in Mexico, replacing Guadalajara vs America as the number one.
If either of them were on the market they would cost
at least # 50m
at today's prices which would indicate that Wenger really is only interested
in top top
quality additions to the
squad.

Most importantly if you look
at the
squads of the top teams
in Europe, Striker is the main position where our
quality is definitely lacking, every other position I think we are competitive.
Ramsey is still Ramsey, having the odd good spell but over the years not good enough
at top level Frankly that does not add up to a DEEP
IN QUALITY squad and we have Wenger to «thank» for that.
whatever you think of ramsey... and
in my books he is a decent b2b but certainly not top class... he is not going to control the area between edge of box and centre line which is what all great DMs do... nor has coquelin proved that to me... he is a guttusso type player and has improved massively
in that role... not convinced it is what will take us to challenging for titles however which is why a cavalho type DM is a needed addition especially as arteta and flamini are obviously not up to the task... but have always said that wengers job is to get best out of ozil santi and wilshere who are the real creative world class strengths of this
squad... they need protection behind them and options
in front...
at moment the real worry is that wenger will continue to use mertesakher
at CB and fail to bring
in quality striker... so the song remains the same... without
quality DM and attacking option we will be trying to retain 3rd place and reach qf of cl
He is one of the arsenal players who despite being great
in his own right was overshadowed by those around him... Such was the
quality we had
in the
squad during his time... So I hope that his situation improves financislly or
at the very least we offer him a some kind of paid coaching / mentor role
at Arsenal to help him get out of this mess...
Bolstering the
squad with
quality players is key during this window, if I was Arsene I would take advantage of our league position and financial stability to persuade top players to join us before crazy money is thrown
at them
in the summer by other teams.
To compete
at the highest level today (and I am not talking about 4th and a domestic cup and making R16
in champions league) and win the EPL and win the CL or make it far we need a
squad with
quality in depth not just numbers to for depth like we do with Arteta, Flamini and the likes.
In turn, the Liverpool forwards will surely be licking their lips
at the prospect of facing West Ham, as although Bilic will expect his potential replacements to keep a steady ship, losing such
quality defensive talent and experience is bound to hurt them and stretch their
squad.
I apologize if i'm speaking for you
in the wrong context Jonestown, but I think he was trying to point out that these «
squad» players that people seem to want so badly may not be as stoked
at the competition within our team as we would be... Sure there's arguments for a
quality upgrade with a few players, but a few may have to leave before anyone comes
in.
Nevertheless, it will still be a disappointment to the players
in question to not be selected for the World Cup qualifiers this week, although with regards to the Spanish quartet, it's always going to be difficult to get a place
in the La Roja
squad given the amount of
quality at Julen Lopetegui's disposal.
Sanchez is a
quality player, but if he is not getting what he wants negative vibes begin to develop
in the
squad, we do not want that
at the start of the season, because that will be detrimental to any hopes of winning anything and i think it also cost arsenal a top four finish, so all the contract rebels i would sell for the highest price i can get and move urgently for replacement.
You need
quality experience
in the
squad and you can't keep 25 superstar happy so some players have to be
at the start or
at the end of their careers.
This is not a problem that started today but rather has been around for the last decade.To start with, everyone knew we would fall short
at the secound half of the season for lack of enough depth
in quality and the outcome now isn't surprising to most pple especially our rivals... wenger himself said we had enough
quality to challenge
in all front and even went further to say there were no players out there who cld improve us.i have said many times that half of this
squad is average and can not achieve much.with klopp, mou, conte / simeone and pep around nxt season then lets see how this blemish «Angel» of our is gonna fair out.Nxt season will even get worse.for arsenal the phrase is «IT»S DEJA VU ALL OVER AGAIN»!!!
