I don't dispute the fact with you, Arteta decisions most times can be shocking.

We're just wasting good setpiece opportunities cos of that nonsense. Imagine Gabriel and white heading to nod ball only to see Cedric aim for goal.

When you try to be too smart, you end up outsmarting yourself and sabotaging your team.

The previous week we saw him employ Odegaard and ESR in the middle of a 4-3-3 against Brighton’s 5 midfielders.

Lacazette is Arsenal captain following the exit of Auba while Tierney is one of the vice captains . The were both out injured so someone amongst the "Leadership group" at arsenal which includes Odegaard, Gabriel and Ramsdale had to step in.

I tell you.
The team is playing as if nothing is at stake again cos I don't just understand.

No confidence amongst the boys, no drive.

Seems they've lacked motivation and confidence and that's the worst team that can happen to a team.

This is the time we need to see who real leaders are (when the going isn't good) and unfortunately no one is showing that.

Did you watch the FA cup between Liverpool and Mancity?
Pep put Gabriel, his only striker on the wing...Foden wey dey play false 9, he put am in Midfield, Sterling and Grealish were both rotating the CF and LW. City were just so disjointed.
Maybe that's where Arteta learn his oversabism from be that.

This is gonna be a long week. Chelsea on Wednesday and Man U on Saturday.
Make we just forget that Chelsea match, na the way they beat thief for ariria market Dem go beat us..
For the man u match, their coach is clueless but they have good individual players. The only way we can get something from the match is if Sancho scores.
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Jodera: 10:23am On Apr 18, 2022
I watched Partey's play highlights for this season yesterday night (strictly this season) and I found out why arsenal as a team where totally dependent on his quality either knowingly or unknowingly and while no one of our DM or Cm have half of his qualities to at least mitigate for Partey's loss

Here are my findings:
1.. Partey moves ball quickly to the final third. He already knows who was where and who is in more threatening position to pass the ball to. He also gives the perfect pass to that attacker to launch attack. Contrast to Sambi who takes 2-3 touches and at slow paced before he'll give a pass, giving the opposition players ample time to regroup

2.. Partey is a rock. He's so solid at the tackling as well as interception. His positional awareness in that midfield helps to kill opposition attacks before they fully become dangerous as well as aiding in counter attack with inch perfect through pass. Contrast that with Odegaard who wasn't good positionally with his awareness when playing deep and Sambi who's not rock solid in terms of tackling and interception and we'll wonder less why our defence are facing clean cut pressures when they pass through that midfield. Less said about Xhaka who isn't exceptional at tackling or quickly pushing attack.

3.. None of our DMs or CMs are good at dribbling in tight spaces or under immense pressure. This is something Partey does effortlessly and on a regular. Any of our deep midfielders who encounters such either falls to ground under any slight pressure or pass back to the defence or sideways. This safety-first football kills any potential attack that may have resulted in goals.

4. Lastly, defence splitting pass to free attackers In a packed midfield. Partey is fond of this very well, esp his disguise pass. Sadly none of our deep midfielders (either Sambi or Xhaka) attempts this regularly. If ever they give forward pass, then the attackers have 2-3 defenders to beat because obviously the slowness of the passes have made the opposition regroup.

And then we wonder why our attackers are going missing in games when they no be mane or Salah. Or our defenders are all over the place because the midfield aren't rock solid as before. Who also noticed Saka and martinelli help their fullback more these past 2 matches than before?

The solution is for Arteta to switch formation to maybe to 3 at the back for more defensive and midfield solidity then let's ride our luck with the attack with 1 or 2 odd goals. I've tried to see how 4 at the back can help us but with the midfield base of Sambi and Xhaka, it'll be hard cos both are slow in transitioning attack (even though Sambi is slightly better than Xhaka in this regard) and both aren't good tacklers or interceptors nor can both beat press effectively

Sadly na only 3 at the back fit help us now(my humble opinion).

You see why midfield is the main focal point to any successful team
I swear majority of guys here no know ball na manage we they manage.
I don't understand how person go look arsenal over the past 5 years and tell me na defenders we should invest on

During carzola era we have the worse CB combination in mertersacker and Kos, guess what szy(another useless keeper) won the golden globe

Na dat oversabi make pep put Steffen instead of Ederson. While I agree players needs rest due to fatigue or exhaustion, but resting your keeper?? Against Liverpool for that matter in a semi final match

While I don't blame the GK for the first goal, but everyone knows he's at fault for the 2nd goal and I believe he would have done more for the 3rd. So that's two goals been gifted to Liverpool.

As for Arteta, the guy is not just tactical esp when losing . Do you know that since his arrival in 2020, we've not won a game when trailing by half time in EPL bar wolves?

Lol, I've always known it's midfield and attack that help most teams at least become stable, but that's not why I brought the piece sha. I just brought it up to show why arsenal is really misfiring in all departments and no suitable quality isn't at our disposal making the hole Partey left too too big to fill and the possible solution to save our season. Sadly elneny na another minus 1.

God bless that cazorla coquelin partnership. I've never enjoyed any midfield partnership like that for a long while even tho it lasted for just 6months. Na after that I know say Wenger na bad belle wen the next season he pushed coquelin to play advanced role and Xhaka dmf grin. Since then we never smell top 4 grin

Correction tho, the keeper during that partnership was ospina not sczcz....

I still dey wonder how we thrived with mertesacker for years knowing how snailish he was grin. I swear, I mertesacker dey this team now eh, na cricket scores every week we for dey count grin

Isn't it enough that when you lose your best player, be it in attack or defense, it's going to affect the whole team?

If I tell you that the problem of this team is not personnel but psychology you will not accept. This team is mentally affected by the loss of two good starters. Hopefully they will get over that mental block and find a way to push themselves into winning again.

When Mostob brought his formation options, I told him as it stands the major problem is not formation but mentality. I saw that clearly. This was what also affected City, though they cope better because they have other very good players to rely on.

Loserpool lost Van Djik to injury last season and their whole season went down the drain. That's loserpool that had more quality players than arsenal o.
