bros the earlier you know and understand we can only talk,argue and hope here our opinions doesn't pass here.
Now back to lacazette injury, how will you feel when he drop transfer request for not gaining enough game time I mean why will anyone blame the coach for playing all our strong players,what happened to play to your strength.
I don't see any faults here, unless you are telling me that if you are a coach you will rather play and cope with Nelson stupidity up front with auba lack of strength and Pepe is the only drive we have to bench lacazette.
I read he has been playing with the injury for a long time, not like he can't play tomorrow he just needed to rehab I saw him in training yesterday looking sharp.
I used to think our voices aren't heard, I'll tell you social media comments get to them there, I'll tell you some; boycotting games at Emirates to chase Pa Wenger,Marque signings like Ozil, Protests, The winger talk, Pepe, Mustafi's axe,Sign a DM Torreira, Start Auba/Laca and many more..
Opinions here and other forum, blogs, site etc go far o,so far it gains Weight..

As for Lacazette, He can start Europa,Fa cup and Carabao games, sub him off around 70 for Auba, Start Auba in league games, sub him off around 70 for Laca, Occasionally, start Auba at RW he is better there, with Laca up front, Also start Laca in big games in the league, with this that's enough playing time and will still keep both fresh,sharp and competitive..

If one or both isn't comfy with that, then I'm sorry they are not bigger than Arsenal, We move on .

Its not about playing strong players, its playing them appropriately and to thier strength..
Auba is a 9, develop or buy another player on the LW, it's one of the reasons our games ain't flowing, Strikers and midfielders on the wing makes the game awful..

If I were Emery, I won't play any player out of position, you are either in your position or competiting for your spot, except in case of injuries..

Nelson is supposed to be Iwobi's replacement,so if he can't be trusted then it makes no sense to keep him.

Your last paragraph is also my fear,Aubazette starting all games will amount to fatigue And injuries with no quality options from the bench.

lmao, are you talking about the fans that pay the most expensive tickets in England or the one here be specific please
Fans everywhere, I mean its funny everyone acting like they've got Diploma in football coaching, haven't you seen how anxious they are to see all thier superstars on the picth at the same time irrespective of tactics or individual strength..

It was what happened with Carzola and Ozil, Paying the most expensive ticket to see the team progress or to see celebrity and star players on the pitch?

..... Emery really tried not to put both of them on the pitch together but fans kept on with the pressure and pundits didn't help either. Auba is always uncomfortable on the wings and does better through the middle and the same for Laca. But if Laca is benched, fans will start with their conspiracy theories.

.... Anyway, it's now clear why he wasn't brought on against Liverpool on time and why he wasn't at his best holdup play against Tottenham. His passes were uncharacteristically off too. Let him take his time to heal as we have a Long season ahead.

... Our front three looks lethal but it's actually unbalanced; a right winger is needed and Nelson isn't doing enough to stake a claim there. If he or Gabriel go the way of Willock, Emery will be forced to bench one of our strikers. I honestly wouldn't want us to get any right winger but if they don't come to the party then we have to. The Man United is actually my worry about Laca's absence, Auba doesn't inspire confidence against the big sides except our noisy neighbors.
Our fans need to calm the f.down, they want all the big names at once, We are a big footballing side, we should have some on bench for rotation and super sub purpose..

Our strenght lies in CF position,Imagine week 5, injuries have started biting us in that dept, I fear Auba/Laca's battery may run down by Dec.

...... Lacazette is out for a month. We will have to depend on Auba all through the period he is out as Nketiah is on loan. Jules will have to step up now.
OMG shocked

Risking Auba& Laca together hasn't been my thing, Rotate them like Aguero/Jesus across all completions,but Emery fell for fans fantasies..

With Welbeck,Iwobi and Nketiah out, Martineli has to step up.
We need LW Jan.

Exactly, Seycha and co ganged on Frodd, Coffee was among the very few who stood by him, it was tough for some of us than Frodd himself, God answered your prayers and you want to bring problems back..

Notice None of the housemates can stand against Seycha, they were the bone holding the hatred you see on Frodd, immediately they broke, it was fight everywhere in their camp ...

It is hypocrisy to canvas for Seyi, they didn't see Trasha bigging on Jacky,Venita,Joe and her other supposed enemies, it is Seyi that should be spared because he is Awolowo?

Found him fascinating to watch, never understood his strategy but the way he insults cuts me to the bone. I never got over the Thelma’s brother’s thing. Can’t comprehend or fathom the how or why. And him nominating Frodd because he likes seeing him cry - made it worse. I so prayed for that his famzing with Tacha to get shipwrecked so now, I am good to watch him from very faaaaaaaar.

If he stays, it is well. I wish him luck though. But I wish Mike, Tacha and Khafi more luck...
He said this shocked
Any Froddnation voting this dude is madt and more foólish than that Warii veto dude..

God answered slow tigers prayer by breaking and scattering all their ships and bonds, few weeks ago Frodd to them was the most irritating, but now they are sacred to nominate him and are seeing more deadly evil people in the house..
In a matter of 2 weeks, Mercy,Trasha,Seyi,Khafi et al have been on people's mouth for negative reasons.. cheesy

I'm for saving Khafi, the babe is sweet and would suit the female winner that Mercy & Trasha.

BTW, I'm enjoying the hot war between Seycha and Fans cheesy , shebi you wan gather they form family reunion ni, blaming and transferring their bitterness on frodd, now that they sensed bobo is strong, their camp/Tables don dey break..

Guendouzi is smashing it so far in this season. He has improved his possession and positional game and is rightly getting the hype these days.
Along with Ceballos and Willock and swiss good Maitland-Niles the future is looking bright in centre midfield position. Time to move on from Xhaka
In the three seasons he's been a first XI player we've spent 3 seasons not touching the top 4.
Yes o cheesy Support and love for our youngsters giving us their all is all that matters cheesy
Let's move on from Xhaka, we appreciate Mesut Ozil, one of the sweetest baller we've seen here in his prime, he gave us the boost when we were going down until Xhaka and co came, sadly, Age and energy has timed him up, he needs China or lesser leagues.

Jodera:
most people here have acknowledged he's improved this season. And if you notice, most people here have toned down on their criticism towards him, that tells you a lot that he have improved. We should allow this matter die, but pro-guendouzi supporters will always bring stats to rubbish his critics. This should be like a debate on what he brings to the table over his other colleagues/teammates, but people defending him will always try to attack his critics. That's my response to keky at first. I do criticize guen as well as others, wen dey play rubbish. No hypocrisy here. Auba have been attacked here so many times, but he doesn't cause much division as guen. Why?
There was a time someone brought an hateful post froa nonentity on Instagram, and gbam they were partying on it, I brought Alan shearea's team of the weak with Guen and gbam they started attacking me and the boy, i hope you can see the difference now.
That's the reason neutral fans come and laugh at them.
My brother, criticism is part of football,and we welcome it,but what do you say to people who after seeing him on the line up, come here with . "I won't talk now,till after match", look at the midfield, we'll struggle today"? They are so irritated seeing him starting, or what do you after winning, they come up with Guen is the reason we struggled to create chances, why we conceded, why we were pressed..
Cech committed error.. Guendozi
Mustafi' error... Guendozi
Xhaka's red card,penalty Abd errors...Guendozi
Aubameyang/lacazette misses chances ...Guendozi
Kolasinac can't cross .. Matteo
Ozil went missing....Guen
Sokratis wrestling... Guen

I'll tag you when next to see.

Yeah. I'm against guen going into academy, everyone knows he's surpassed that level. What I feel is that he should be rotating with xhaka. I have no ill feelings over guen tho, and I'm really happy he's improving by the day.
This is pure and sweet, no sensible fan will attack this. cool

Don't you get it guen is not the type of player that deserves to start for arsenal especially against top teams simple...he is okay for mid or lower teams.
He was playing well in Europa during group stages till knock out stages
Yes you are right, a team of Arsenal's standard shouldn't have Guendozi, Niles,Willock,Neslon,Martineli and many other youngsters on their starting 11. they do not have the CV yet..but considering what we've seen from some of them even in big games and the calibre of average,weak,soft,erratic and Old players we paraded,the youngsters have shown they can fight and compete with some of this seniors.

I repeat, I would prefer Thomas Partey or Doucoure to all the short and softies in our middle, Guen will not near first 11 in that case, but with current options in our middle, he can compete with them.

BTW,
Key stat: No player has conceded more penalties in the Premier League than Granit Xhaka (5) since the start of the 2016/17 season.

There's no perfect player anywhere, but looking only at the negative side of a player all the time shows hate...

Anytime stats to praise the boy shows here you see series of attack on the post, is it a sin to love and support your player trying his best?

Is it his problem the manager trusts him more than the erratic/skow players he met?

BTW, below is a stat showing Leno's negative side, but sensible fans won't turn it to a song because they see his efforts.

Great, now we're on same page. Most of these players hyped before 20, especially in England turns flop. Notice why Spain , Germany and France produce top notch players? Cos their potential stars aren't hyped unlike in England where basic things are overblown. The list of stars in England being hyped but derailed away from the greatness path is endless, that's why we need to tone it down with guen. To be sincere, what guen is doing is what most of his mates are doing even in academy in other top clubs. In as much I wouldn't want him back in the academy, but most of us will agree that he should not be a starter, but a sub or squad player. He's not doing anything exceptional, yes he's talent and have a great potential, but he's not doing anything exceptional to warrant starting. But then, the coach chooses whom he wants, so it's not his fault that he starts games. He has his fault, thank goodness he's working on them little by little.
He shouldn't be a starter like most young players out there, but with his performances thus far, he doesn't look like Academy standard anymore..

Personally, I would prefer a big tall mobile man in the middle, but considering what we've got, only Torreira looks more convincing, he can drag or even bettered Xhaka if allowed to compete.

We do not have Fabregas or Alex Song here.

Bros, is not after every good performance of guen that you'll start bringing stats and pix, but if he flops in a match, you disappear. Nobody says guen is scrap or useless, most people here says he should be integrated into the team slowly. Quite frankly, he have improved drastically this season, but what most people here feels is that, if you hype he like their lacazette, you shouldn't disappear, or bring up "he's still very young" anytime he comes under criticism. That's what most of his critics are about here. We've seen what over-hyping at a tender age have caused our previous "potentials"

Xhaka created most chances against Tottenham. How can you deal with that?

I am not rating Xhaka at all. But I hate it when people condemn players without facts and make them look as if there is no worth in them.

We did that to Ramsey, Giroud, Sanchez, Chamberlain, even a young inexperienced Guendouzi.

Worst is that this is coming from 'us' who practically know nothing about football, some or us don't even research - most of these are personal opinions, yet we make it sound like we are God's secretary to know all.

Mtchew!
That quote was me rebuking that ridiculous claim of Xhaka being very good going forward..
I don't rate Xhaka and I don't hide it, I doubt he created the most chance yesterday, and whatever he might have done doesn't change he costs us points in the game.

I don't condemn anyhow.

kokaneprodigy:
yea he is. Wenger played to that strength reason he partnered him with Coq that was very rugged and did the dirty jobs And Xhaka scored impressive goals for us then.

Emery is not a coach take it or leave it reason he keeps doing permutations week in week out experimenting with our points.

Unless you replace Xhaka in the next transfer window with someone of his height he can’t be benched cos he still gives the height advantage to defend set pieces, you can’t play two short people as DMs. Reason I prefer he is partnered by Torreira. Cos partnering him with Guen always exposes our defenders.
He is never ever VERY good going forward, the only good thing he does is those long range pass, and that's not enough, Midfielders who are good going forward, drives ball forward, play incisive pass to the attack not flanks and use movement and tricks to evade thier markers, he might have been good in some games "going forward" but has hardly ever been very...
He is the slowest midfielder here,can't turn,can't switch foot nor threat opposition..

His partnership with Coq was the worst in recent years, coq was a very good DM, not good forward other than to play simple pass to carzola for the rest, Xhaka sat deep with and there was no mobility, Dhaka was supposed to get forward, but too immobile and only wants to pass from his spot. He scored long range shots, that's his forte and don't say impressive goals,he scored same with Emery and with Switzerland. His assists are dead balls, no defence splitting pass..

Emery is very good coach, take it or leave it, he was successful at Sevila& PSG and will be at Arsenal.. He is not the reason why Old experienced men in Sokratis and Luiz can't comport, Xhaka costing us since 1900, nor strikers missing chances... He had quality midfielders in Nzonzi, Benega,Ibora,Rabiot, Krychowiack verrati et Al..
He's brought in Torreira,Guendozi and Ceballos, and fans are impressed with what they've seen compared to endless moans on Ramsey, Ozil and Xhaka.

I agree with your last paragraph, and that's the only reason I'll put Xhaka in this team, I'm a fan of power and height.

Xhaka should be ashamed of himself. He doesn’t offer enough to continue to be such a weakpoint for us. The occasional diagonal long ball does not make up for the blunders, concentration lapses, or his agility of a planet
God bless you sir. Xhaka will cost 12 points this season, 2,down, 10 more to go.

Fans commentaries on virtually every Arsenal forums want Xhaka so far far away from this club, Even the neutrals and new posters here are saying it as it is, but shockingly you see some trying to patch him up with, partner him with Rivaldo, don't play him with who they don't like and series of eyesore stuffs.

my point exactly, Xhaka is very good going forward, Guen has also improved his game going forward, but both are slow and are defensive liabilities.

While Xhaka’s tackles can be rash, Guen adds very little or nothing defensively cos you’ll hardly see him make a tackle, he shadow marks most of the time, escorting the opposition to the box.

Playing both exposes our defence I’ve said this over and over.
