Attack is even asking too much. The way guys dribble past him is wow! Like he is a mirage on the screen.

Spy360:
Knowing how weak the midfield had become, all he needed to do was to stuff it with one more player. That's taking off Ozil for Torriera. Then once things stabilise, take of Guendouzi for Nelson to add bite and direction to counter attack. Taking off Ceballos for Willock was suicidal. There was no purpose tactically to that change.

On Thursday, I hope to see Martinelli, SmithRowe, Chambers and full games for Nelson and Willock hoping that more games for the latter duo could make them catch some sense.

..... Baba, Nelson is all hype jare. He is not ready for anything, even Saka would have fared better. I prefer Gabriel on that wing until we find a better option. Chelsea's academy products are far better than ours and need no hyping. We just hype our own to match theirs.

.... We are playing Frankfurt away so I don't think we will see much changes except in defense. One of Luiz or Papa should sit this out and Emery should use the opportunity to put out a Midfield that will work well in order to build familiarity. Constant Changing won't help him. Use a midfield on Thursday that he will use on Sunday. Emery was uncharacteristically not himself yesterday so Il will just put yesterday as an off day at the office.

Spy360:
But Nelson is the only other winger we've got apart from Gabriel. I do not rate him, but I have hopes for him. Prayerfully sha.

Emery needs to try Chambers in that Xhaka role. Miracles can happen and we may forget Xhaka.

As for Emery himself, I would give him till end of season, as a benefit of doubt.

That boy go sweet to whyne baje, he's like Diego Costa, small pinch,he'll flare up and explode,boom and that's a red card.

Does Emery realize he is not only fighting to keep his job at Arsenal but his future and marketability as a head coach in any of Europe's top teams? The projections for his future if his contract at Arsenal is not renewed is bleak, especially if we argue from narratives created after his success at Sevilla. At this point, it is fair to argue that his teams' post Sevilla choke, can not defend and he lacks the managerial skills to manage players with big personalities. These issues were his undoing at PSG and they are rearing their ugly heads with us.

I would like to give the #EmeryOut gang, spearheaded by iPopAlomo, Kokaneprodigy and now Sod09 a lot of credit because they were vehemently against Emery's signing because of some of the issues I highlighted above but I did the opposite by arguing for his signature as against the appointment of M. Arteta. I made it clear that I will give him a benefit of a doubt until this season but the man is not helping with some of his stupid decisions. We have not played anything exciting since the end of last season and this season has been worse and difficult to watch from a fan standpoint. This lack of identity is a product constant tinkering of formation, player selection, bad tactics, bad substitutions which ironically used to be his biggest strength and weapon. Don't get it twisted, we may not have the perfect squad but we sure have the squad to win the last 2 games. This is not a Europa League squad anymore and it all boils down to the coach.

Since his appointment, Emery has been stubborn about playing from the back even though it is evident that we not only lack the players to execute that strategy but more importantly, the current players lack the confidence to carry it out. You would think a smart coach will rethink that strategy after consecutive mistakes before the goal was scored, no, he continued to force the play and we were punished. The 2 senior clowns at the back need some benching and serious competition, I am an advocate of Chambers getting a start next week against Aston Villa because the kid played very well against Newcastle and he can not be worse than those aged clowns.

Emery does not have time, he was not hired by Edu and I know Edu is definitely keeping close tabs and already has options should Emery be fired.

Roland17:
I feel so bad for Auba! I mean the man works so hard to salvage our nonsense and watches others destroy it in a matter of minutes.

MrDojo:
If I was Auba, I won't sign a new contract. There are other teams who are looking for world class strikers.

If this nonsense continues, I'd imagine laca won't sign too.

Roland17:
My broda, if Auba/ Laca especially the former don't extend and leave, abeg wetin remain for us? His goals are the reason why we are not on the 2nd page of the EPL standing. Biko no dey pray those kain risky prayers.

I was watching Auba's morale after Watford scored the 1st goal and you could not tell he was deflated because he was working just as hard. He was tracking back to defend and start attacks from deep, only for the idiots to ruin all his effort by conceding a silly penalty. I really pity the guy and the guy is so durable with excellent conditioning.

MrDojo:
Or course I want him to stay. Like I said, if I were to be in his shoes, never ooo

Except Lucas's goal, Auba and Laca have scored all our goals for this season. If village people want to finish us, let Auba have injury. That's when everybody will see the nonsense we are playing.

Roland17:
So the nonsense wen we dey play since get another gear?

We are just wasting Auba, that man should be competing for the UCL and titles.

kokaneprodigy:
this was one of the things I pointed out too, but folks here were carried away by drab wins against Newcastle and Burnley. He doesn’t set us up to create lot of scoring chances and even bring other players into scoring positions. If Laca and Auba should have an off day lasan no goal be that.

I cried from the rooftop that his methods were not sustainable in long run they said 3 points Na the koko. 8 points out of 15 and the future looks really bleak.

With Wenger the issue was that we were not consistent, with Emery we are consistent at playing drab.

Imagine Auba has 14 goals from his last 14 matches. Kai! And I will still read here say he scores tap-ins

Spy360:
I recall stating that Chambers should continue in the starting line up after he impressed against Newcastle, I think it was solomonbrown who insisted Luiz should start.

When players get the feeling that the positions are not under threat, they misbehave and make rash decisions. Look at Luiz, so suspect of causing penalties which everyone now knows. Same goes to Xhaka.

Emery should drop these lots to the bench and see if they won't become more careful with their decisions.

Swissh:
Nelson is not hyped. The boy is talented. He is more than capable on talent alone. But talent alone doesn't get the job done. He needs to improve his work rate. He is just careless and lazy in some ways.

Expect a strong line up against Frankfurt it's the strongest game in the group stage.

Swissh:
The major criticism of Auba is that if he doesnt score he ain't doing anything else for the team.
People criticised his ability on the ball in our build up play and on counter attack.

solomonbrown64:
..... Chambers impressed but I felt it was against a lower opposition who didn't really come out to play compared to Burnley and Liverpool. Luiz on his day is a better defender and let's be honest Liverpool's penalty is a very debatable. I am not defending Luiz but he did really well against a rampaging Watford and blocked a few inbound shots on goal, that penalty just messed up his game. If there's a defender we should drop now, it has to be Sokratis. He hasn't been his best lately. Between Luis and Sokratis, I will drop the latter.

.... Very importantly, Chambers was Fulham's player of the season as a midfielder and not a centre back. But Luiz and Papa have been very poor especially the latter so it won't hurt to try Chambers on Thursday. If he does well, I trust Emery to do his job but Chambers won't solve all our defensive issues, our full backs and porous midfield need some serious work. Nothing we can do presently about the first problem but plenty about the second.
