With Partey & Elneny doing the dirty Job now imagine Grealish/Maddison in front of them the attack go mad.

Lol... It would have been great.

But at least, thank goodness ESR is up to the task

BlueRayDick:
What u are doing is giving selective facts while ignoring others.

1. Arsenal didn't buy any new midfielder that won us the last 3 matches. Arteta improvised with the options he had at his disposal and we are suddenly winning 3 matches back to back to back.

2. Gabriel's impact is obvious for all to see as he's won the best player at Arsenal for 3 different months in his first year in a different league.

3. You honestly don't want to see what the pairing of Luiz and Mustafi can do to a good team with decent midfielders. You can check some of the matches last year and see how trashy CB's can spoil the whole work of the entire team. I will never forgive Luiz for the man city game last season when he gave the ball away and also got red carded. I don't know how u people forget all these things and suddenly we think Mustafi, Luiz and other clowns are decent defenders

4. I see someone talking about holding "holding" our defence along with Pablo Mari. ( I think that's Jodera). Honestly Holding is trash from the games I've watched recently ; he's just being carried along. His judgement with the ball are just too questionable. If not that having 2 left footed CB would be out of place, I would've suggested he be binned straight away.

You're even making my point. Point is, he been very OK that's past games alongside Mari. Why, not because Mari is so exceptional like Gabriel, but because the attack and midfield have improved considerably. That's the reason the "trashy" holding is even among those keeping clean sheets

sod09:
That's toward the end man u played
Against Chelsea first and second half they dominated we were more direct than them

lol.. True sha

sod09:
Bring up the stat na let's see

even stats against man u was in favor of man u sef.

sod09:
Did xhaka play

.


Oya, what of Chelsea?

afrodoc2:
But all the attacking flair you people are using now was there from last season. Saka, Martinelli, ESR were not bought this season.

The point I made was you had enough talent in your team to play good football and score goals however Arteta short-circuited the season by playing defensive formations and persisting with Wilian, Pepe e.t.c and ridiculous choices like Tierney at LCB.

I'm sure you'll know ESR because you're vast in football knowledge but it's not all non-arsenal fans that will know who ESR was before Chelsea game.

While I agree with you on your 2nd paragraph (which has been most of us points most times here this season), our point mostly was that we needed good midfield and attack. Most people here wanted dem saka, Martinelli and ESR to understudy veterans and grow at a healthy pace so that undue pressure won't be on their head. That was why some of us were saying we needed good midfield and attack.

I remember listing out our defenders here for you last season saying those guys with a good squad (all/most wen fit) are not bad for top4 teams. Tho it's still early days but we can see how holding and Mari are holding their own in that defence. And we still have chambers and Luiz out who can also add some solidity. Now, we can see how the defence are keeping clean sheets and less pressured cos midfield and attack have improved considerably.
That has been our point all these while.

Perhaps if Gabriel hadn't started this season but Mari started, we might have even conceded more goals than what we've conceded till date, and even lost more games than the draw we drew. Then the issue will be how we didn't have defence and how mari and holding are average, not knowing it's because of the constant pressure the defence were receiving.

sod09:
The issue was buying more defenders when he could have gotten better midfielder. Do you believe good midfield will ease defence affairs and also improve attack?
Some of us like me think buying Gabriel was not necessary considering the number of defender we have instead of going for attacking midfielder.
I'm not saying Gabriel is not good but was that the main priority?
A case study is presently, he isn't playing and we winning with CS everyone know arsenal defenders are clowns but if we have better midfielders to ease the pressure on them they will make less mistake.
As it stand now even if we have VVD and koulibally in defence we will still concede stupid goals because my problem lies in that midfield of xhaka especially and his partner.
When last did you see arsenal dominate midfield against big team?

Man u

mostob:
.

omo... E shock you?
If e no shock you, e shock me oo

This is the arsenal most of us have been yearning for

Leyqute:
That hermaphrodite don disappear. If you see how they were spewing trash then.

Shekpites will always Shekph

Lol... Dem no even learn from we their neighbours about Pepe sef. Dey go dey make mouth.

Person wey no know go think say Chelsea buy the re-creation of Ronaldo and ozil in Werner and havertz

Wait??.... So if Chelsea lose against man city, na only 3 points dem go take dey top us??

All those times wey we dey lose back to back, wetin dem dey do??

I mean we lost fvcking 8 matches

sod09:
He's not scoring or assisting same with dominic

there's hope for DCL over that bamford.
I never know how Leeds are managing him as their top 9 sef

sod09:
Either of bamford or DCL and hendrick

lol bamford straight up

Spy360:
Thanks bro.

sod09:
Time to buy laca and saka

FPL tinz? Who you wan ditch? Kane and son?

4-0

Na wa ooo

sod09:
No that was the truth, I was just tired of raising the issue again
Gabriel hasn't played the last 2 matches and it's fine.
Still not saying he's not good for us

Lol... Same here.
No need soiling the mood with needless I told you so

kokanepyramid:
Leave Spy, he’ll be talking from both sides of his mouth. Now he’s famzing Rowe.

but actually, to be fair to spy, he actually said what we really needed was an Am, and our fortunes will change drastically

kokanepyramid:
Now you see an AM was what we needed. Last 3 games Gabu hasn’t featured and we know what the results are.

If you still think defence wins you league and prioritizing defence over attack was a good decision in our last TW. I shake my head vigorously for you.

I just dey expect this rebuttal from you.

I wasn't disappointed

Fkforyou:
If only Arteta had made drastic changes early enough. We wouldn't have gone through what we went previous months.

I don't know if it is fate,or luck or pure genius on his part for him to turn things around.

Whatever be the case, I'm enjoying today's match.

Long may it continue.

P.S- Tierney dey burst my brain. The guy Sabi ball

Lol... Long may it continue oo

Spy360:
Ozil will be looking at ESR and be like ...mtchew! kid spoiling my vibe, now I have to look for another club or get forgotten...

Wey dat pix of king kai wey him siddon for kingly chair dey smile, while all the EPL No10s dey look am with envy.

That pix was the poster pix for both this thread and man u thread then... I don miss that pix.

Mgbo, Blueangel444??

TrebleChamp:
Leave that one make him dey cry dey go

olabode89:
Why you dey waste your time dey explain? At a point those guys were trolling when we drew games, it was so irritating. They better not lose tommorow, we go troll them all through the week.

Lol... As a non-man u fan, I just have to explain and tell am history, else him fit deh carry matter for him head wen him know no say na him "ancestors"(not literally) start matter(trouble).

Spy360:
Sam Aladyce said we considers us in the same relegation battle with him.

We have just left him to dry in the cold...

Lol... He will regret saying those words now.

He thought he was still meeting the confused and disorganized arsenal

sod09:
Blame it on Arteta sticking to those old clowns while youngies like ESR they around

I swear, e vex me ooo.
At least, I'm thankful he isn't stubborn to put back willian and Pepe wen they were finally fit.

Na curse I for curse am

Spy360:
Saka, especially since he started operating from the right, showing Pepe how it's done.

ESR has been beautiful to watch. Simple touches made with brain.

Both of them have shown that we do not need €72m times to create a good team.

I swear. Sometimes, your 72m worth of player(s) is just right behind you. It is just for you to just look inside for solutions

We have 10shots and 5 on target only in first half

Just can't believe this arsenal as a team months back was struggling to even have 1 shot on target.

madrid5:
you can troll heck I go even Join the trolling ,but doing in 24/7 ruining thread flows not make sense

Lol... I understand you.

But your guys, esp sulele and blueangel trolled man u 24/7. It was really irritating and frustrating then. Now those guys wey put una for diz trolling wahala don run comot

BlueRayDick:
Despite Arsenal playing well, Auba is playing rubbish!

Na him last season and new contract dey save auba.

Small small, I hope Arteta fit dey phase am out if him no improve

BlueRayDick:
Second goal made in Hale end!

Na really made in hale end academy goal be that

madrid5:
Shut up joor,how is Fernandez better than ziyech,I am beginning to hate man United fans see as una ruin this thread ,no discussion again,if una wait after cheksea lose tomorrow before trolling (the rules of trolling) una go die?see the place cum dry

lol, wen your comrades raided their threads wen Chelsea bought havertz, Werner and ziyech, did it occur to you then that they were trolling man u wen they didn't play any match?
Now e don backfire, all the kingkai and timo turbo don turn trash and they are paying you guys back in same coin, you don know say you sabi hate .

Chill and relax(chillax ), one good bad turn deserve another.
