We have one of the most disorganized team in the league

Our midfders can't protect defenders, they cant create chances, they cant score goals. All they do is to pass backwards and sideways.

Our attackkers, especially when it is the trio of pepe, abuameayang and lacazette are so disorganized that you have to ask yourself if these guys did trained together.

If not for young saka and ESR we were already showing relegation form last season.

1.. Lol, juventus aren't called Old Ladies for nothing na.
If I call chiellini and thiago Silva old, I'm not wrong. I dunno why you see this as an issue to be honest

2... Yes, pique was slightly above average. Every barca fans knows that. No sentiments!!

This thing u dey talk ehn....no be am at all.

Gerrard Pique was the official best defender in là Liga's 2009/ 2010 you claim he was slightly above average

Barca conceded the least number of goals; 24 theirby posting the best defensive record that year, yet u are referring to Puyol as being too old in order to downplay his impact in the team’s success

Even dem Messi will not appreciate this ur post trying to downplay the importance of key players in that great team.

Spy360:

32 is the best age to be a defender. Calling Puyol old at that age is an irony.

Every good player is above average. Berating Pique for being above average is a paradox.

If not for saka and ESR we would either be relegated or at least finished 16/17th. Facts!!

I've never seen arsenal have such a poverty number coming from midfield in my entire support of arsenal. Tueh!!

Spy360:

As long as the TW is sti open, the order is immaterial. #fact

So far at the start of season we have all the players we want.

We will talk if he doesn't sign an AM after paying 50m for a defender.

Spy360:

When I said factored it is to say that signing a midfielder to strengthen your defense is similar to signing a defender. All na defense.

Fkhalifa:

Arsenal have turned those midtable teams that surprisingly beat the big sides,thereby giving fans hope they still hold the big club image.
#Embarrassing!

Fkhalifa:

I just happy say Jerry curl no follow join the mess lass year ...Boda Kokayn would have pinned everything on him all season on here
If Arsenal dey serious, all the midfled should have been cleared, only Partey and Smith Rowe should be the only surviving players in that midfield.

ndidibabe:
Why did Arsenal sack Emery? The guy is good...

Akinbahm:


Good ebening from this side Mr Spy

Bro, BlueRayDick I hail you also for the unrelent(ed) work towards the ministry.

Exactly! I will wait till the end of Aug 31st to question Arteta's judgement.

I want to understand that it might not be easy getting the quality players he want as quickly as he wants them, especially due to our non Europe appearance. I have read how these other Europe bound teams gave us an elbow when we try to compete with them for a player. And it is also not easy buying quality player from an Europe bound team except the rejects and guaranteed bench warmers...

But all these notwithstanding it will be crazy for the window to end without getting a decent AM especially after selling Willock. Fingers crossed, I expect we are going to get an AM, backup keeper and a striker at least before the window closes.

Looks like Aaron Ramsdale will be our next signing...to cost 24m-30m....I think we have money.

I never really wanted to join this discussion, but that bolded just made me change my mind.

We all agree that attack wins you games but defence win you league. While we all agree on that quote but I think it's the interpretation that you're not getting right.
Firstly, for you to win the league, you have to WIN GAMES FIRST.
We know that a team can win games yet can't win the league but no one can win the league without winning games. So in essence, what the breaking down of that quote is that you should settle your attack (which will win you games and take you to the top) before doing the last process which is strengthening your defence to win the league (that extra push required to win the league). While you're taking the quote in isolation, but in essence, that quotes are together.

Examples...
When klopp wanted to rebuild his team, he had to buy mane first(his big signing to bolster his attack). His next big signing was wijnaldum(another attack/midfield). Still he didn't sign any big signing defence.
After wijnaldum his next big signing is Salah.

Now look at the trajectory. Mane took them from perennial 8/9th to 4th. While mane, salah took them from 4th to 2nd. Now this was the height attack will bring you too. Tho they concede goals, but Attack more than make up for the wins to ensure top4.
Now that extra push for top 4 to win the league was what prompted the defence, and there goes Van dijk. He (along with attack) push dem from 4th to 2nd(a touching distance to first) and a Cl final. Since the puzzle wasn't complete, a good keeper was needed, and there comes Allison. Trajectory complete. A league and a cl league to boot.

You might say, van dijk went to injury last season to prove your point why they struggled to get 3rd. But the good thing is that dey got 3rd with their attack. Now imagine a Liverpool without mane, salah, firnino and jota, but van dijk, Arnold, matip and Robertson. Even 5th dem no go see(na just 8-10th).

That's what is exactly playing at in arsenal

I know say e long, but I just need to explain

kokaneprodigy:

You are explaining to someone with coconut head

iamoyindamola:


What are you still looking for

kokaneprodigy:

I just dey pity jodera

Spy360:

Ramsdale's deal is officially off. Imagine a Championship club insisting on 30m for a backup keeper for a club not in Europe. They think because we wear Fly Emirates then we are the PSG of England?

We getting a striker is not because we need but that two of our strikers are in their last year of contract. They need to be moved on for longer term prospects.

An AM is a must- a decent one for that matter.

iamoyindamola:
Arsenal to offer roma lacazette for them to allow abraham to join us, if this no be juju i don't know it is abeg

Spy360:

Emery's problem was his inability to effectively communicate his ideas to fans and owners. Unlike Arteta who has a way of bamboozling us to buy into his mirage.

Even now, when we are not contending for Europe we feel so hopeful as if all will be well.

BlueRayDick:


I read Lacazette prefers to join a club that will play in the champions league, so Roma move won't work for him.

ndidibabe:
All is not well with Arsenal, my brother. Nothing is gonna change this season with their recent dealing in the transfer market..
