blame wengay bro... that's the truth

sod09:
I can't wait for him and mustafi to leave those 2 useless German cross breed

As in, those two first, then I'll know Emery isn't Wenger.
Lolzz

sod09:
I also heard he insulted him when he sat down,that guy is a virus Emery is meeting the board this week and he wants him out at all cost

What Ozil said is nonsense!
The positive side tho is that with this of his action will make ozil leave the club at all cost. And I'm happy for that

.... Emery is the what now..... Bro, we have the lowest quality players in the top 6 and the worst midfield in the top 13 in the league. We shipped 51 goals even with defensive signings. Arsenal has been falling for years now but it's all just coming out in the open now.

....Benitez and Simeone do not play the arsenal way, you don't pick managers anyhow. You pick managers according to the DNA of a club which is why Liverpool went after Klopp after sacking another attack minded coach in Rodgers. Personally, I wanted Klopp but Arsenal decided to stick with what was dead and let that opportunity pass them by.

... Emery has his blame but for me, this is the worst crop of players he has ever assembled in a top team before and he still did well in his first season. No coach can do anything with these players and until we rid the club of them which will take at least four transfer windows, we are going nowhere.

.....Get Emery his desired players and judge him after that, not based on another manager's players. I am in support of him and I am really eager to see what he will achieve next season. He did well in fighting for top four and reaching the UEL final, let's see what he accomplishes next season. It's too early to say he is the problem of the team, too early friend.

Actually, you're spot on. It wasn't Emery's fault that auba missed two empty nets, nor kolasinac not capitalizing on the space that was afforded him a whole 30mins. Or lacazette missing one on one with the keeper. I'll spare willock for his miss tho, cos it would have been fruitless at that stage for any sort of comeback(except na miracle). So when your players have all the chances to win or equaliser, I barely blame the coach for that. Granted, he cost us our top 4, but in terms of final ystdy, I believe it's our attackers and Niles with kolasinac. Auba missed two glaring chances and caused the 4th goal. Niles cost two goals while kolasinac was simply bitter kola. I believe we should give youth a chance. Blend nketiah, smith and willock with the first team and I believe they'll do better. We shouldn't always be buying, buying, buying when we have decent youth players who just need that exposure. Look at Sancho, now people will be begging to have him. Mbappe too. We should bring from within and blend with the senior teams. Then add one or two experienced good signings. Ozil no suppose dey arsenal wen smith, willock and iwobi can effectively be justling that position. Seriously, we need to be ruthless and sign unknown great talents. See Robertson of Liverpool, that's a steal at this present generation. We should be looking at that too. Not just any popup names, we'll start buying. We should start mixing experience with youths.
I'm giving Emery till next season tho. And I still believe in him...for now tho

Kolasinac should just bleep off too. Like you have all the whole time and space in the world in good 45m but you could not lay a good pass or cross to your teammates. So mediocre for a player.
Ozil should just sleep in China. Willock tried in few mins he was in than ozil's duration.Emery should look at iwobi at no 10 role. I believe he'll bring much more than ozil next season.
Might be hard to get a proper winger now with the look of things now!
Well, I dunno how I can look fwd to next season again. The future looks bleak to be honest. Can't be watching another Europa again. Seems we need to promote from the youth and buy a few good experienced players since it will be certain our transfer fund will be low and we can't have that appeal to get the right talents, I think we should look towards it. Also the scouts should look at bringing in an unknown but great winger na..haba. Can't we unearth gem again?

Mehn ....
After watching yesterday's game, I was really pissed mehn(who wouldn't btw) .
We'll, in as much, Auba this Auba that, I'll really rate him as my flop of the season. He made us miss out on top 4 (emery partly included too) and cost us the Europa too. How can you miss an empty net in a final in the 1st 20min of the match?. This guy have never pleased me even with his highest goalscorer award(which we all know he should have outrightly won). He misses way too much chance for a striker. Haba

Talking about wingers, what about Julian Brandt of Leverkusen. Is he advisable we look into that side too?

Fkhalifa:
Xhaka is another case study, we need to clear him or make him a squad player like Elneny, I feel Elneny would have been better if given such playing chances like xhaka from start of season, xhaka only Starr because he is 35£, popular with swiss and forms activity a lot, the way he runs to take corners, pointing fingers trying to organize defence and his carriage made some to be scammed and thought him to be a captain material.
He needs to be ar from first team, we need that tall,strong, mobile,technical players who can transit us forward quick,give us presence and boss's the middle.

I don't know about elneny, but the elneny I know from day one at arsenal isn't a good player or 2nd eleven material. Xhaka is that player, even tho I know now, he have levels at arsenal, but maybe a fekir is really needed at arsenal.

solomonbrown64:
...... Arsenal bid for Umtiti...I know Emery wants a big name in that position but Umtiti's left knee is all fvcked up at the moment. He was absymal in his last game in the La Liga and I don't think it's good news that Barca are willing to sell after just two years of buying him. He is young and the deal could be genius if he gets through his injury but if not, then we are screwed.

.... Ozil's agent says his client isn't going anywhere....I expected that and seriously, who would at that insane amount of money doing absolutely nothing other than pass the ball back and forth. We have been scammed.

.... Iwobi says he isn't a winger......of course we know that but he might still get a few minutes there next season if we don't recruit enough wingers. Auba is not a winger, don't be fooled by the game in Valencia.

..... AC Milan want Mustafi: It seems Gazidis is still in love with his former signing. The Italian team will put in 20m for the German centre back. It looks like Emery is really serious about getting rid of these five as mentioned on goal.com --- Mustafi, Ozil, Mkhi, Elneny and Jenkinson. Good start from Raul and his team including the incoming director of football - Edu.

...It will be a very interesting summer window.

Iwobi is not a winger, does not mean he should not learn how to score. I feel ziyech and frazer is a better option for iwobi to be a squad player.

And the afformentioned players for sell...please let dem sell them fast

....Also xhaka, I think we need someone better than him, and someone who can pair with torreira or a cazorla type(how I miss this guy). Most times, I feel xhaka is slow in transitioning play from defence/midfield to attack. We need that sort of midfielder, and also the same person must also be able to wriggle his way out under pressure!

Spy360:
The good thing about pairing Auba and Laca is that they are different and bring unique contributions to the team play.

Auba has the pace while Laca the stamina.

Auba takes on his markers while Laca hassles them.

Auba has the eye for goals while Laca provides them.

Auba has the positioning while Laca creates spaces.

Their bromance simply makes everything synchronize.

True what you said there. But if only they can put that performance of yesterday for arsenal in 90% of matches come next season, I'm sure we'll have the best pairing if not one of the best in EPL. Tho they scored lots of goals for us this season, but they also missed chances that cost us(not saying strikers doesn't miss chances), but if they can play like that as they did yesterday, coupled with a proper winger and a good running 10, then arsenal will be partly up there with the rest.

I have never being a fan of laca and auba upfront, but yesterday, those 2 were "wow". Can begrudge any of them and surprisingly, auba took all his chances well, beat his man and also pressured attack from front. Best game I've seen from auba in an arsenal shirt.
I pray we win the Europa, can't be watching Thurs night football from next season again o

Roland17:
Better than signing Ole Wheel to dominate 6th Avenue

Really?

Hope we win Europa league tho.
I would want us to have that cash that will allow us buy players we need, let's see whether Emery will buy needed players or whether he'll do like Wenger all over again!

Lana1:
Nawa o. All this shalaye because of small 3-0.

Manure...wetin small for here?
Were you expecting we collect 4 like una?

kokaneprodigy:
when we were winning yall didn’t say all these.

Lol..I wasn't registered then!

sod09:
exactly these guys will still post shít today in their social media

As usual na

Roland17:
Heaping the blame on Wenger is a very weak argument to make in my opinion. Wenger has been gone since last year and while the new manager is yet to make any significant transfer, it is his duty to change the mentality of the current squad into the direction he is planning for. If he plans to be ruthless then it would be evident in the current players irrespective of who bought them. Emery will not be judged this season in my eyes, I will wait until next season to make any conclusive argument for or against the man irrespective of what happens in the summer/ winter transfers.

To be sincere...Mentality is not something you can change overnight. And like I said, it's ingrained in these guys. Emery can't do jack with most of these guys just like kloop can't do with most of those guys in his fest season. Until a clear out is made at major positions, emery tactics will always fail. As in, I know emery right from sevilla days, his team na team that press. We even saw at during beginning of season, why it just disappeared nowadays talks more about the mentality of the players than coach...hence my blame on Wenger.

solomonbrown64:
.....When I said we need to sell Lacazette, my people were arguing with me. What about Iwobi, Xhaka? How can a Leicester midfield boss us from beginning to end? Jesus! 68 - 32 ball possession and yet we have a 100+ striking unit and Vardy had more shots on target than both of them? This is laughable. One of those clowns must leave this season and it must be Lacazette. Miss a glorious chance and then feign injury.... useless coward. 7 away goals for a 50m player. A player only marginally better than Giroud for 50m? Nonsense.

...Look at Madison for God sake. What do our scouts do? Instead we have a player that has zero mobility yet our fans will lambast Guendouzi when Xhaka is one of the worst midfielders that has ever worn the Arsenal jersey. I will only watch the Europa matches from now on and won't bother next season if we don't discard the useless players in the team. Can't be wasting money on subscription to watch this eyesore.
....Big ups to Leno.

Bro, for once, I've agreed with you. Spot on!

sod09:
it's too bad, if you see these morons in training ehn

Did you notice the way guardiola cautioned Mendy about his excessive use of social media this season. How he told him that he'll see less chances if he doesn't reduce his social media ways. But arsenal, it seems our staff sef dey encourage dem!

sod09:
it's too bad, if you see these morons in training ehn

Mehn! It's lack of leaders we have or will I say nice friendly leaders. It's already in the culture and it's ingrained in them. Even if new tough player comes into the squad, with time, the will mellow. We just need massive clear outs in major positions. With that we can start afresh and mentality will also be changing. Obviously, all na Wenger fault las las. Faulty foundation (mentality)

Fkhalifa:
You gat brain, how some fans feel comfy with that lazy style of play worries me, especially that Gabonese Vardy whose only forte is positioning.
It frustrates how Opposition defenders relax and chill all day.

Lol, even vardy harasses defenders. Auba na fast man giroud while lacazette na interplay giroud. Both no dey too inspire me with confidence sef

sod09:
I hope we dont win the Europa,we can't be in UCL and be playing this shitty football.
If it's possible I pray we lose out in Europa position too, we need total overhaul no wengay players should escape sell every fvcking one of them

Well, if we don't get champions league, how can we attract players. How will our rebuilding even start? I give emery till next season to really rate him, both in tactics, personnel and motivation. If he doesn't clear out most of this players next season, just the way klopp did after Liverpool's first season, then na there my whining go start for him head. We need massive clear out. I really hope he sees it that way!

sod09:
imagine some oloriburuku don't just know when to draw the line between trolling and insults

Lol. For someone to be venting his anger like that, I feel the only reason be say him don go bet money. And who knows, e fit be say na only arsenal cut am.

It's Official! I think we can solely concentrate on Europa league. Failure to win that have made this season very very disappointing. Mehn! I don't just understand, from high hopes after the Europa league games to immediately poor run of results. How we have our hand in 3rd to miraculously be thinking of 5th or 6th will very well remain a mystery!!!

patrickmuf:
Utterly useless team that is Arsenal...Most useless team in London except Fulham, may Ogun lick your balls if you quote me and chat shit...

Bros, u no be arsenal fan na. You suppose dey happy, after all na man u you be.
Dis one you dey para like diz, you bet??

solomonbrown64:
....Bro, forget age. Auba is faster and guarantees goals. He is still up with the best in terms of goals. Laca isn't very young too and he is not a player you can count on especially away, he is very inconsistent same with his partner but that one has goals to his name which is why he was bought anyway.
....Laca has ten assists this season which shows that either he likes dropping deep a lot which is due to the poor creativity of the team or the fact that he prefers that second striker role. Summer will tell but having two elite strikers and between both of them, they have only been able to score 31goals isn't good enough. I see it as a waste of precious resource.

Well said bro. And a valid opinion. But if it's my opinion, I'll prefer we keep both and they fight for that spot.

sod09:
we should be glad,I'm waiting for ozil and mhki news too

What I'm actually waiting for is the kind of players coming. I wish they'll be good, strong and technical.

solomonbrown64:
....Bro, Arsenal is not Facebook, they can still be friends elsewhere. Right now, we need fund and our self-sustain model will not make up compete with the big boys. Sell one of them and use the money somewhere whether on a top centre back or a class winger. Mancity have Aguero and Jesus, Liverpool; Firmino and Origi, Chelsea; Higuain and Giroud, Tottenham; Kane and Llorente, Barcelona; Suarez and I don't know, Madrid; Benzema and someone, PSG; Cavani and someone. No top club have two world class strikers fighting for one position; its usually wingers doing that for top teams. Having two world class strikers and here we are still behind those with only one. I know that's not the only problem in our team but a toothless attack especially in our away games put immense pressure on the defense and we usually crack.

..... We don't need two of them, sell one and bring class players in vital positions abeg. Right now, we barely have a defense with two old men leading the lines. A midfield without a single technical player and not a singer winger talk more of an average one and yet we have a 100+ strike force, where will the service come from? Most of our assists have come from cutbacks usually with the aid of fullbacks. We have a dead squad and yet little money to buy good ones. Sell one of them but my preference is Lacazette. We need goals and Auba is a goal machine.

Lol @ arsenal is not Facebook! Tho I get your point sha. But if they were to put both in market for one to go, then of course, it'll be auba. Cos of age wise. Also, pazienza or fkhalifa have explained the attributes of lacazette and I totally agree with him. Auba can be useless like ozil and mkhi in a tight-tensed match. Tho, like you said, with effective wingers like he had in Dortmund, he will excel, so I get your point. Tho I feel we're privileged having to strikers and we shouldn't jeopardize that.

popizaino:
Honestly,I can relate with whatever nollywood actor hanksanuku is saying but my problem here is that soccer cankerworm we have on this thread who is not here to come and disagree and call everything poppycock cus I remembered making this same point in defence of Didier Drogba when egbon dayo ridiculed the striker's league goals.Telling him those low amount of goals Drogba's scored had more significant contributions to our league triumph .

Lol, I was about going this lane also b4 I saw yours. I could not believe they discredited all those drogba's goal saying he wasn't so good but overhyped and they brought his total goal of 9 seasons. Now those "important goals" is now very important in justifying salah over hazard this season. Lol

The above is what I saw on Chelsea thread. More reason why lacazette should not be sold. Both of them can fight for that spot, and be evenly rotating it. After all they are both "good friends" right?...let dem do healthy competition
