And he reckons that
the whole defensive side of the Arsenal team are in great form, as he told Arsenal Player after the Bournemouth match made it three clean sheets from four games and his central defensive pairing with Gabriel showed more signs of improvement.
Not exact matches
While it is clearly the
defensive side of things that matters most to our France international centre back, Laurent Koscielny has been lavishing praise on the way the
whole team has been working to deny our opponents and he feels that a lot of the work is done with the way we have been starting games.
This defeat was caused by a lack of tactical flexibility, a lack of concentration from the
whole defensive unit and nothing going forward except the usual
side - to -
side tippy - tappy nonsense that even Benzema wouldn't have profited from.
This has got to be the biggest missed opportunity in the history of sport, last summer the
whole world said that all we needed were three key players to make the
side almost perfect we needed a new keeper, a new
defensive midfielder and an utter goal scoring monster!!!
I believe Arsene and his
whole coaching management staff has had there time an should honourably leave.Please GOONERS sacrifice your support for the present teams chosen and if personally required make it known we are NOT happy / satisfied with of how the club is handled.There is NO growth and half the players are not premier league standard.looking at the top 6 clubs.Somebody got to take the fall and it is not Kroenkie as we seen the money was spent.We buying where we had a little strength and where we really required (
defensive) for a long time faith is put in people like Calum, Mustafi, bellerin, Holding etc.. I feel for El Nenny who is hardworking with the wrong chemistry.The other 5 top clubs will never take these players in there premier
side.
Simmons and Mitchell and 2nd and 3rd in the
whole nba in
defensive win shares and yet you have one
side saying one is clearly better than the other.
effectively what the pattern you have seen is for Man City game... The idea am calling for is to ease in Debuchy and Gibbs into the three man
defensive unit so that within 2 or three matches, we will have to use just three of our 6 defenders in a typical game and rotating so that they can carry us he
whole hog... the wingers will typically occupy the Wingbacks unless of course there is need to protect a lead in a very tight game against a very dangerous
side (You may have 5 players defenders in the field then).

It looks like it will be vital for the
whole Gunners team to play well and the
defensive side must be solid as it could be a real nightmare if Middlesborough get their noses in front.
too conservative in my opinon, even mou had a dig at him, saying his
side watched him delay the game by passing from
side to
side the
whole time, the team has no balance in my opinion, 3 attacking midfielders, 1
defensive mid, 1 winger, and a so so striker, with the back four, thats what it is.
On the
defensive side (what little Liverpool had to do), the
whole game, he was not dribbled past.
