I would prefer Chamberlain with instructions to
shot from outside the box when he gets the chance to.
Special praise should go to Theo Walcott for an industrious performance which should have seen him add a goal to his assist, but he chose to inexplicably
shoot from outside the box when clean through on goal and under no pressure.
Not exact matches
We do nt mix it up
when it comes to the tactical side of the game, a good example is we hardly if ever take
shots from outside the
box, so the opposition know that we like to «pass it in the net» teams do nt find it as difficult to defend against us anymore.
Beside Sanchez we do nt have much players that are able to
shoot and atleast get decent
shots on target
from outside the
box, Like De Bryne, Yaya, Hazard, Mahrez, Payet etc... Midfielders but they are able to get a goal
when strikers are tied down.
Im just hoping
when we play newcastle on saturday at st james park, that we

When I was watching highlights I saw that benz could've easily passed to vazquez instead of
shooting from outside the

Ox - 5 horrible on the left, took too many
shots from outside his range (I so wish we had a couple attacking midfielders that could
shoot from outside the
box with any consistency)... showed some composure
when he moved back to the right side, especially
when he took on the RB role once Giroud came in for Holding... his versatility is great but only if Wenger uses him on the right side
Also he has a better
shot than Walcott along with more
shot power benefiting Sanchez
when it comes to hitting screamers
from outside the
box.
Liverpool lacked both creativity and patience: far too often, Liverpool would
shoot from outside of the
box (52pc of all
shots came
from outside of the
box): Chamberlain, Can, Gomez and Matip all immediately come to my mind
when I go over the chances, but the most remarkable thing about this game though is that despite Liverpool either getting or executing their tactics so wrong, Liverpool still managed to create enough chances to win, but under pressure, fluffed their lines, take a look at the chances below:
I don't have the exact stats, but I am pretty sure that Arsenal score very few goals
from outside the
box (actually
when Xhaka scored two goals
from long range
shoot, it was considered a big change
from Arsenal...).
That pressure told
when Petr Cech parried a
shot from outside the
box and Roberto Firmino put away the rebound.
Chamberlain had the first go,

United got their one and only
shot on target (yes you are reading that properly) after fifty one minutes

box which was easily saved by Mignelot.
The hosts got their second chance in 30th minute, which went abegging
when Victor Perez right footed
shot from outside the
box was blocked by an Abahani defender.
