Tell us your preferred midfield three in this current Arsenal set up and explain why it should be so. With stats off course.

Also tell us your preferred role for Guendouzi.

Let's bury this issue.

How do you keep caressing when you are meant to release a one time pass? How’s that different from showboating.

Guen is fcking overhyped same as Emery, it has got nothing to do with this draw!
you guys are out of excuses.
Go and learn the tenets of a CM. Their basic duty is not the attack or defend or give defense splitting passes. They could do those when the need arises, but their basic duty is to keep possession which is by caressing and recycling the ball .

Stop linking Guen with Emery trying to change the focus of the argument. We all know Emery is shiiit, but leave Guen out of his matter.

I gave you an assignment, go and check what the player ratings say of different sites then come back and prove to us that Guen is the worst player at Arsenal.

Stop this witch hunt.

The fact that he caresses the ball in an effort to always be at the centre of the camera and the manager keeps him for 90mins and features him in every PL game tells you the manager likes it. So is the senior players that will tell him not to listen to a manager that already loathes them(senior players)?

He’s been playing same shii since last season and keeps getting playing time And you think he won’t be encouraged to do more of it.

This thing is simple logic!

You see why I said u and Solo watch games with emotions.

Both of em should fu.ćk off!!!
The funny thing is that, caressing the ball is part of his job as a centre midfielder. I am waiting for any one who thinks he has sense to prove to me that a normal CM should not caress the ball and recycle possession. Hevis not an AM, but a CM for fuks sake. Let's be less stupid and think.

The lad was poor in the first half when we played 3-5-2 but picked up when we switched to a 4-5-1 formation after half time which earned him our second best player on the night after Lacazette. The absence of leaders in the team may have affected his game reasoning and perhaps hindered his progress, but the lad is putting better performances than most of the clowns we have currently.

Like I said before, he is like a one legged man in the land of the lame. In a shiity team like Arsenal, Guendouzi manages to give a decent performance. It may not be enough for a top team like ours or any top team at all, but he is among the best we have currently.

If you doubt, check player ratings on any site you wish, or else you want to tell us that you know more than every analyst that exist today.

Do you now accept guendouzi is the problem connecting the defence from attack.
He's too sluggish
Its just today. He is not in the game. Seems overcrowded sometimes. He does not seem to understand the formation. He has been unable to connect with the wingbacks and with Ozil. Let's hope he will pick up at half time.

3-5-2 is the only formation that allows your 3 best attacking players to be on the pitch at the same time and play in their natural positions.
I have never really liked all this Auba on the wings stuff.

Play Auba and Laca through the middle with Ozil behind them and get your width with Bellerin and Tierney.
Great observation. All players playing their natural positions.

In the 5 seasons from from 1991/1992 to 1995/1996 Ferguson won the league 3 times and came 2nd the 2 other times despite being no 9 in expenditure.

This is why i say he was overrated. Saying he would have achieved more than Ferguson when there isn’t any good evidence to back it up.


Fergie won trophies locally and in Europe with and without money. His Aberdeen records exist.
And if we delve into the 1st 5-6 seasons of the EPL we will see multiple years in which he won titles without spending the most for that year.

But the excuse artists for Wenger are blaming lack of money for a life time of choking in Europe.

92/93 season Fergie won the league despite being no 7 on the expenditure list.

93/94 season he won again despite being no 2 on expenditure list.

95/96 season he won the league with kids despite being no 40 ( yes no 40) on the expenditure list.

96/97 he won the league despite being no 6 in expenditure.

In summary Fergie won 4 league titles in 5 years despite never spending the most in any year.

Finally. In their first 5 seasons together Wenger outspent Fergie in 3 of those seasons but it was Fergie that won 3 EPL titles with Wenger winning 2.
The only point I can relate with is the 95/96 season.
You think we will just sit and believe those stats up there? No sir.
Show us links. Thanks.

You are the one overreacting because you obviously didn’t read the post i was responding to.

Saying “dem no born Fergie or JM if Wenger had spent money” is tantamount to overrating him.

Money was not the only difference.
The question is if Wenger had unlimited resources as Fergie then, would he have achieved more than Fergie?
Personally I believe he could.

But just as Sod pointed out, he was stubborn and arrogant and insisted in grooming and building stadiums instead of title cabins.
That was so unselfish of him though, but life is being a little bit selfish. He is a legend no doubt. He built Arsenal.

I watched the match and it wasn't as one sided as you make it seem. Main thing is Wenger found a way to bottle all his attempts at European glory, even when he faced inferior teams.

Checking the stats 10 man Gala had more shots than you guys. Most of the memorable Taffarel saves in extra time when Hagi had already been sent off.

Also Taffarel while a good GK was never at any time the best GK in the world, not earlier in his career in the era of Walter Zenga and Schmeichel AND definitely not later in his career in the era of Schmeichel and Oliver Kahn.
Taffarel was the best goalie at the 94 world cup. He was the shot stopper that helped Brazil to win the WC. Internationally he was the best.

That's not taking anything from the Gala side. They were by all means deserving.

Klopp didn't just start spending. When your acquisitions prove value for money, the board has no option but to support you even further. Look at the numbers quoted for Salah, Mane, Robertson, Wijnaldum, Fabinho that's so unreal. Van Dijk and Allison was the board showing that they trust Klopp.

If you get a good coach and Auba, Lacazette and Pepe start playing as well as their potential suggest, those 3 players can fetch you at least £350m in today's market or you think any club will offer more than £70m for Coutinho now?

It's the same problem Mourinho had at Manchester United, he bought Bailly and Lindelof for over 30m, he bought Mkhitaryan, bought Pogba, Dalot, Lukaku etc and of all his signings, only Pogba and recently Lindelof (the jury is still out on him) can be classed as good buys, you might include Lukaku. If you are the board, will you support such a coach again when he comes asking for another CB? Klopp has earned it.
I already made this point bro. A good manager will ease the risk. A manager with little or no pedigree will be a huge risk to take.

If Klopp had failed with Mane et al, he wouldn't have got Allison, VVD etc.

Against a team that

1) was the underdog before the match

2) played the entire extra time with 10 men

3) the man sent off was their best player and creative lynch pin Georghe Hagi.

It was a phucking disgrace. I was actually supporting Arsenal on that day.
If you really watched that match, Arsenal dominated and were very unlucky not to have killed the game at normal time. Galatasaray goalie- Tafarrel was the best in the world then. He saved their ass including in the shoot out. Arsenal were unlucky.

The bolded is my fear, we were excited with Emery, we felt Emery won 3europas with no huge financial backing (something we can't find on poch's CV) Trophies and big club experience at PSG, and how he made us believe he is bringing the high pressing quality football..

Its the reason why I'm not quick to suggesting names again, make we no fall into another scam..
But las las we go still take risk, its better we go an established one than all this youth corper coach like Freddie,Lana,Arterta et al cheesy

Personally, I don't trust Allegri.
Allegri is proven in Italy.

A great achievement, but that is not the only point to consider.
1 good season can’t replace years of good seasons.

What is Wenger’s record in Europe? How many continental titles does he have?

What is their head to head record?
Which of them flogged the other scoring 6 goals, 8 goals etc while fielding cheaply bought defenders in midfield?

Which of them delivered the TREBLE?
Which of them won a European title with a small club like Aberdeen, beating Madrid and Bayern along the way?
Fergie had unlimited resources compared to Arsene. Don't make me start hating Wenger. We all know Fergie was better, why bring comparison? angry

They were the major buys and most expensive in his first 2yrs, the Karius and Solankes were either free transfer or <£10M..

Before the UCL trophy, they were already at the top level and the positive signs were there already.

Freddie will be another time wasting, the guy will just be attacked for nothing, let's get a good manager who understands the modern style of football,clear 3/4 deadwoods and celebrities,bring in 2/3 quality buys next summer, and implement the high intensive quality football..
The manager doesn't need to spend huge like klopp in his first years, he'll inherite better players than what klopp inherited.
Just 2/3 signings within the £35M range.
As good as your suggestion is, it's still looks like what we have done already with Emery. Like I pointed out, it is not a 1+1=2 matter. If not United would be top of the league by now after they got LvG, then Mourinho. We too got Emery but here we are still whining.

We are still in our trial process and any managerial change should not come as a surprise. We keep trying until we land the desired manager.

Meanwhile, Allegri is out of job.

Klopp's first 2 years were just normal business
Mohamed Salah (£34m - 2017)
Sadio Mane (£30m - 2016)
Andrew Robertson (£8m - 2017)
Georginio Wijnaldum (£25m - 2016)
Fabinho (£39m - 2018)
Oxlade Chamberlain (£35m - 2017)
Xherdan Shaqiri (£13m - 2018)

The above were decent business, they sold Coutinho and Suarez and some other low key players .

Only Van dijk,Alison and Naby Keita are above £40M and they were after his 3rd year.

After his first 2years he already to the top and was generating revenue for them..

So we can sell Kolasinac,Xhaka,Mustafi,Ozil,Mhicky,Elneny Sokratis and Nelson..
Introduce Mavro, bring in Saliba and pair Chambers/Luiz and Holding

Look for a talented LB of little cost like Robertson to understudy KieranT, Guendozi&Willock will have matured and replace Elneny easily, bring in Ndidi or partey..

Use Martinali,Saka,Niles and pepe as wingers fo r now then go all out for another LW and AM next summer the following summer. smiley
You singled out the good buys and avoided the bad ones. Klopp spent a lot of money to get here. It was money well spent though because of their last season's achievement. But it's also because they fortunate to have a very good manager overseeing it. A bad manager would make the club go into admin. Is this a risk Arsenal is willing to take? I guess not.

We are still in our trial process for a new manager. Even if we want to use Ljunberg or any manager, it will be for max two years until we are sure to hand him the club for long term.
