Please
work on a defender too.
In this article I'll share some of the artistic and technical lessons I've learned
working on the Defender's Quest series.
Not exact matches
I want to thank all of you who protect this blessing — who do this
work every day: The healthcare providers, doctors, nurses, technicians, receptionists, who put your lives
on the line to care for others (you are heroes — in my eyes, you are saints); the escorts and the activists; the lobbyists and the clinic
defenders; all of you.
Here is a bit more from the article I'm
working on (slowly)
on the
defenders of the nation (such as Scruton and Manent) in Europe today.
That seems like a fair analysis, and if the
defender has taken it
on board and is showing the right attitude and approach, then it should lead to him
working hard to prove himself to the Barcelona boss.
He also needs to stop being this predictable and one dimensional, he always gets the ball and you know he will lose it or give a poor pass, he always cuts inside and it's not
working because
defenders have
worked him out, vary your game and start going
on the outside.
arsene got it right welbeck
work rate was great, the way he tracks back and help his
defenders, hopefully it will rub
on walcott that the only way he, ll get his starting place back except may be in europe and against easier english teams!!
I'm with what Rio said against the sides in the bottom half of the table it
works he can get a couple of goals, but against the intelligent
defenders like terry's kompany's cahill's he would simply get put
on his arse.
However, per the Daily Telegraph, Napoli are
working on a contract extension with their star
defender to ward off interest from opposing clubs.
It would be great if Bould could
work one
on one with Gab, or if Adams came in and we gave him the job of
working closely with
defenders.
If only he can
work on his defensive positioning in tandem with d other
defenders, he can become our Marcelo at rb.
But defensive tackle Kitione Tau and middle linebacker Cade Carter are examples of
defenders who have put in the
work,
on the field and in the gym.
as for cowardly ozil who always get a flu before big matches, shameful, the only reason a player should be left off defensive
work is the player must be atleast 80 % efficient
on the attack, such a player must have the ability to dribble or take
on defenders on his own, shot thunderly and scare the hell out of
defenders with his movements... such a player is hazard, sorry we couldn't get him cos our dumb coach felt he was too expensive and arsenal didn't even pose tittle abilities like Chelsea, hazard didn't even consider arsenal... since van persie left sanchez had been the only player to question wenger's credentials and now wenger must be regretting ever signing him now... the words of manuel neuer «player arsenal was like an holiday»... shame
on wenger...
Former Red Devils goalkeeper Edwin van der Sar — who now
works for the Eredivisie champions — arrived at Carrington
on Tuesday to thrash out a deal for the # 18m
defender.
The pairing seems like it should be stellar
on paper — both are plus
defenders, and coupling Collins» length / mobility with Nurkic's interior bulk and rim protecting ability should be very effective — but it hasn't
worked out so far.
Please remember we both the second best
defender in the La Liga statistically and bar the issue of language challenges, which I believe he is
working hard
on, we have a great defensive leader in Gabriel.
arsenal has won convincingly last FA cup even with all bench
defenders, and what i have learnt from that is how much
working hard
on training, especially for stamina and endurance so as to press
on the opponents not to give them time and a space, dominate
on the ball and win the match with a big team if arsenal continue to display that with the addition of more skillful midfielders, left winger right winger wow arsenal will be monster
He trains like a demon and never complains, will
work with and without the ball
on the field and can beat a
defender with a trick or with a pass.

3 CB with 2 wingbacks isn't needed, it doesn't
work in the EPL that well, too much emphasis
on defenders and as such not enough to control the field like we do.
As a
defender i rate Gabriel very highly and would give Boss the cover to bomb
on and play a high line — Bellerin / Gabriel speed / defensive wise could
work!
missed
work today and been sitting my asss
on the computer whole day waiting for news only to find out Falcao is joining united and we wont be signing anyone, not even a
defender we so badly need
wow are we sterile up top, goals need to come from defense again, ozil & cech were great, mert once again taking the brunt of bad comments meanwhile a clean sheet and did nothing wrong, open goal that was saved was kos out of position and monreal caught up the pitch too high, giroud has great ball skills, issue is his position
on the pitch, watched the match again focused
on giroud, he tends to camp behind the
defender from the ball, this only
works when you have the quickness to break, he does nt, I have screen shots where ozil is 25 yrds farther up the pitch then giroud, thisis the problem, he is rendered useless unless ozil holds up, and thats not ozils strength, thus very few sog's from giroud
on the run, when giroud gets lucky w space in front of the
defender, he is lethal, but needs to get into that space,
Subs Welbeck 7 Looked lively when he came
on and made the tired Burnley
defenders work hard.
I like the
work rate of these players, only one I can't understand is Theo
on the wing, Wenger already admitted he's a bad
defender.
now Costa is a good player, so there's no shame in it, but as a one
on one
defender, Bellerin still needs some
work.
After the game our versatile young
defender Calum Chambers spoke about him and other players finding it hard with their lack of game time but also the importance of keeping up the hard
work on the training ground and being ready to take their chances when they came along.
thank you, even when we pitch a shut out, these fans pile
on mert, he is a warrior, does not deserve it, Kos is my fav
defender but I can see he was tired saturday, it
worked out fine today, gabe fresh legs paid off
Bellerin got so much more joy when Theo was
on because he was drawing the
defender and spinning and making that
defender work.
The 32 - year - old also heaped praise
on the hard -
working duo of Carlos Tevez and Louis Saha, who he enjoyed playing alongside, and named Chelsea legend John Terry as the toughest
defender to play against.
Good
defender, elite rebounder, decent ball handling, needs to
work on shooting but has a decent post moves and could fill at PF too.
Arsenal have three young
defenders, who need to be brought
on; one would hope Steve Bould is
working with them after all Tony Adams played first team football at 17 if I recall correctly.
Toy with
defenders, go into the byline,
work on his crossing etc..
If anything, it was his defending that fuelled some cynicism, while the transfer negotiations were taking place, with many going onto proclaim that the 29 - year old would just concentrate
on going forward, thereby leaving his central
defenders do all the defensive
work.
If you look at Monreal, who is a solid
defender most of the time, he essentially plays the wingback position as if he is a full back in a 4 -3-3, that doesn't
work bacuae it leaves Sanchez or whoever plays in front of him too isolated and doesn't put enough pressure
on the
defenders.
Hit
on the counter with our full backs behind play and acres of space to run into means they are dictating play (our
defenders have all this space to defend whilst the attack have this space to run into, it
works better for the attacker).
One thing i also notice in this crop of arsenal team that is making we arsenal fans happy today is the introduction of walcott as a striker, cos of his pace
defenders never overlap to mount presure
on us, they remain in their half, he make dem
work alot and they get tired.
ridiculous... whatever he is in midfield he was a complete waste of a player
on the wing... lacked pace and touch and did nt go past players... if wenger does nt invest in another world class attacker this summer we will always be nearly theres... giroud has improved undoubtedly but against top class
defenders he is just another journeyman from ligue un... bellerin certainly our top choice fullback now hazard did nt get a look in... coquelin carzola ozil sanchez
working together... so if we invest properly in summer we can overhaul this lot who are no great team for sure..

Do you seriously believe this position has not been identified as a priority to fill with a quality performer?For years we have had a lack of physical presence and the Sven and Raul team will be
working on this with Central
Defenders also
on the list.
The Sun are crowing about the latter today, claiming in their usually understated fashion that the Red Devils
defender could miss the first four matches of the Premier League season, lose the England captain's armband, see his girlfriend walk out
on him, see him lose his job and find himself
working on a fruit and veg stall in East Ham.
I can see him becoming a strong
defender with Tarp
working on his strength and agility in drills.
While it's true age and injuries have sapped Giroud of some of his pace, he also was never as reliant
on it as some other strikers, preferring to use positioning and touch to do his
work around
defenders.
As Arsenal close in
on the transfer of the uncapped Brazilian
defender Gabriel Paulista from La Liga club Villarreal, Arsene Wenger knows that he will have to go to a tribunal hearing to ask for a
work permit for the 24 - year old to be able to play in the English Premier League and that has brought up a sore subject.
Whilst
working at Arsenal a few years back, he had noticed a CD making the same positioning mistakes in a few games in a row and Keown wanted to help this
defender out by showing him his errors
on film so the
defender could learn and improve his positioning.
@Benzorla Agree Giroud is not the WC Striker we crying out for to win the league but he is not the SOLE reason we didn't win yday and vs West Ham... Man City have scored 8 Goals so far... with only one from their CF... (4 from midfielders and 3 from
defenders)... its not only our striker that needs to
work on his game...
Is a very good player to replace debuchy and jenkinson and I will like arsenal sell both players to fund to sign this Albania
defender to improve our line defense in coming season and I want arsenal to let merterserker or paulista to leave for this young French
defender Chelsea want to sell kourt zouma to replace them for good understanding
defender and also look to replace monreal or Gibbs with Scottish
defender Tierney of Celtic or mendy of Monaco, one of them is good signing for the next season bcos our exposed weak position of this season is right back and left back and this two position is our opponents
work on it to destroy us in champion league and premier league too.
The Spanish
defender has been strongly linked with a move to his former side, while coach Pep Guardiola who he
worked with at that former club, is also believed to be keen
on a reunion at City.
well good for me if ozil is clicking and not wilshere cause spending a huge chunk of money
on him shows he needs to assist for that Walcott must be there to support him and relieve pressure
on alexis so therefore i will choose Ramsey
on the basis of good
work rate once Wenger signs a defensive midfielder or with a
defender i would be great!
Hahaha pepes here saying Benzema is not significantly better than Giroud.i do not even want to go to stats.Firstly lets talk about finishing, Giroud finishing is not really that good at all.He misses a lot of chances.He most at times needs many chances to score and all also misses sitters too much.his shot accuracy too ai nt that good at all.This makes him an average finisher.Secondly, lets go to his dribbling abilities.every player has his own limitations.Giroud has average dribbling.there are many times if he could beat a player he would have been through
on goal but since he cant he just waits for support denying the team a chance to score in most cases.Average dribbler.In addition, hold up play, Giroud holds up the ball really well, however, this does not
work in all cases against physically strong
defenders and also very intelligent
defenders his hold up play suffers a lot.so for hold up play he is ok.i could go
on and
on my word this striker is not good at all do nt you watch him or you want to use his stats.ah!
