there is no harm in trying him there bro.

BlueRayDick:
I think its obvious we have just one decent midfielder in the mould of Torriera. Xhaka is just not good enough for Arsenal and any other top club in the league.
Guendouzi is at best a bench player who should only be introduced when we are in a comfortable lead to come on and help us extend the lead or maintain a balanced game till the final whistle. I didn't mention Willock because I don't rate him. He's not shown any reason why he should be considered in any role in that middle. I believe bringing in a big guy this January to partner Torriera will serve as a palliative measure and trying Luiz once in a while in the middle won't be a bad thing. At least he can help with his long passes which Xhaka seem not be getting right again and he also knows when to close down an opposition which Xhaka has refused to do.

As regards our defense, I think these guys are just not good enough. A washed out Luiz, non-ball-playing Sokratis and always confused Chambers won't get us anywhere. We will keep conceding no matter how many goals the forward players can produce. I believe letting Mustafi go this January and bringing in a decent CB to partner Holding in that back line would be a reasonable thing to do.

I think the team should plan for life after Ozil. He's never been the same since Sanchez left. He's like a worker that can't be sacked, hence no motivating factor to spur him own. We need to get someone who has hunger and desires to excel.

We all know the club will not splash cash during January transfer window, but If we can at least solve these two positions January , we can build on it by finishing well in the league which can then attract decent players come the end of the season.

is this a +ve? Spy

kokaneprodigy:
At least we got a draw in the second half

# quote me for more positives

Roland17:
Chambers redeemed himself there.

Roland17:
Do you see why @Kokane would rather Xhaka continue to play? This game buttresses his argument and it is a legitimate one if you ask me.

iamoyindamola:
Anytime kdb have the ball the crowd are screaming"bring him down"
Sum up arsenal players

BlueRayDick:
Our players àbí Guendouzi and Co

Roland17:
We went for the high press but city beat the press but somehow, everyone was just strolling back and before you know it, KDB is 1v1 against our defense!

iamoyindamola:

Recan only MBC 2/ max are working among the MBCs.

kokaneprodigy:
Ceballos or Luiz or fucking get a solid DM.

kokaneprodigy:
I said it here earlier this season that I expected him to get Xhaka’s replacement, one who can partner Torreira. A lot of peeps can attest to that. That was my ish with Emery.

BlueRayDick:
Mavropanos did not show any reason why he should get a place ahead of any of those two tonight.

In fact those two played better than he did when the 3 of them were on the pitch. He kicked the ball in the path of an attacking player twice in the first half. He was shaky.

iamoyindamola:
you complaining about young players I'm asking you if luiz and papa are better than them

kokaneprodigy:
its even once u are above 23.

Reason we have the under 19, under 21 and under 23 tournaments as youth competition. Once u are above 23 ur jungle don suppose mature.

Sod above 23 u are no longer a youth player in football context.

iamoyindamola:
mustafi 24
Holding 23
I thought 19-30 will be classified as youth??

kokaneprodigy:
ur last line is the reason I want him moved up. He’s got the pass and can add something defensively from midfield perspective.

BlueRayDick:
This is not bad tho.

Na only that Smith-Rowe supposed allow him head correct, make he no dey nonesense

Jodera:
Great, I agree now. Fair enough.
But I don't think we need all our full squad. The formation Fkhalifa proposed is good enough for a win

maynation:
I hope you ain't an arsenal fan sha?
I hope you won't cry tonight?

What's arse-anal again??
