Liverpool are at their best
when teams attack them and leave space for them to exploit with their blistering speed up front.
I like Allegri a lot, but he has to be decisive
when his team attacks and when they defend.
When the team attacks the back 4 never stops defending and what happens in the event Ivanovic moves forward is Azpilicueta hangs back and Matic drifts slightly to the right, as a result you get the width to overload the wing and still have the defensive solidity of set of 4 defenders.
Miran I don't get y u are on Lingard,
when the team attacks he plays really well with Mata and Pogba but when we are defensive he sticks to defending and can't really be himself.

attacking by the opposing
team's confusion over who to mark, he would close down the enemy in the midfield and he would help steal the initiative off the opponent attackers by his mobility to position himself at the less served areas.
I disagree.A wingback can be viewed as a defensive winger.Whether the Ox likes it or not he's been blessed with the qualities of a winger.To me that's his best position.He's only doing well as a wingback because of his
attacking abilities.As I said earlier a wingback can be viewed as a sort of defensive winger.That's why CB's who are used as RB or LB can not play wingback.Wingback needs the player to be able to adapt himself like a winger while also being solid defensively.Ox has the
attacking part but not the defensive part.With Bellerin we have the best of both worlds.He can
attack, defend and also has the speed necessary to play wingback.I fear Ox being played at wingback will cost us
when we play
teams with tricky wingers.He should rather be challenging Sanchez or Ozil for their positions and not wingback.The guy hates to always have to defend which in truth he can't.
Every year, we have the same shortcomings: — Bad organization defensively, especially our

attacks..
You can only realize that
when a counter
attack comes from an opposition
team.
as for me ozil is a talented and skilful player but having only that is not enough to win the ever getting stronger premier leage
teams, he has to train hard for endurance and be a fighter, he has to come back and press on the opponent defense and even midfieldes to disposes the ball
when arsenal loose the ball and go back fast
attacking like iwobi and welbeck are doing.

teams apart (he is a welcomed addition)

Of course it would be silly to suggest that winning any game, cup or otherwise, isn't good for the club, but let's remember just how problematic FA Cup success has been for this club... I'm certainly not going to suggest I didn't enjoy seeing Arsenal win, I'm a fan of this club first and foremost, but how bad are things
when you find yourself secretly wishing that your own
team lost so that just maybe real change would finally come... I resent this
team for even making me feel such thoughts and it's going to take a lot of effort on their part to earn my trust again... this club has treated the fans so poorly that it has created an incredibly fragile and toxic environment, so much so that a «what have you done for me lately» mentality has emerged... fans rise and fall depending on the results of each game because we don't have faith in those in charge to make the necessary changes to personnel and tactics... each time we win many fans
attack any dissenting voices and make unrealistic claims about the players, the manager and the potential for unprecedented success... every time we lose the boo - birds run rampant, calling for heads to roll and predicting the worst... regardless of what side you fall on, it's not your fault, both sides are simply overcompensating for the horrible state of affairs that have been percolating for several years... it's hard to take the long view
when those in charge have lied incessantly and refuse to take any responsibilities for their own actions... in the end, we are trapped by the same catch - 22 that ManU faced upon Fergie's exit... less fearful of maintaining the status quo than facing the unknown, which was validated, wrongly or rightly, by witnessing the difficulties they have faced during this transitory period... to be honest, the thing that scares me most is that this
team has never prepared whatsoever for this eventuality, which considering our frugal nature and the way we have shunned many of our most revered former players is more than a little disconcerting
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...
When one analyzes the 4 games in which the team conceded three or more goals, a number of factors come into play: attacking players losing balls in our defensive third, attacking players not committing fouls when they lose the ball to stop counters, attacking players not tracking back to defend, and attacking players lacking a defensive minds

until wenger really stresses on defending and forgoes this «
attack the whole game» policy, arsenal do nt stand a chance to win major honours.also do keep in mind,
attacking whole game drains out the players.better to put handbrake on and play
when team has a 2 or 3 goal lead focussing on keeping posession and positioning... but i guess wenger will always go for the «u score 3, we score 4».

Many fans were hoping for a goal-fest

teams known for their

I'll be the first to admit counter
attacking football and Arsenal should go together like cookies and cream but ever since the invicibles
teams have refused adamantly to play high defensive lines against us and counters do not work if the opposition has a defensive 5 or 6 set up near the edge of their box
when you finally get the ball up there.

Has anyone ever notice
when the
team counters in high speed and gives the ball to Giroud, the rest tends to slow down a bit coz that pornstar would never turn and continue the

He's a real threat
when we are a goal up and play the counter
attacking style, but if we chase a game against a deeper sitting
team we are in trouble with him.
I will hear that Walcott is not defensive enough and all that, but not many players were before, now
when the
team is
attacking and defending like a unit, then Walcott will also get into the rythm, He has just come from an injury, he might not have been lethal enough but he is still good as a winger, he can make runs behind defenses, he is a good crosser, he can test the keeper...
