Özil can still fuck off with all his bullshit, it’s not starting Hector, Ramsey, Torriera and this crap formation that pisses me off. We’re boring again and not worth the 2 hours of a weekend
Congrats Unai - we're all in on trying to win the Europa League now. Good thing you're a Europa League-level manager, because there's no chance of a top 4 finish with Guendouzi pulling the strings.
that performance does nothing but empower Ozil and his backers from the 18, to formation, to starting lineup, tactics, and subs; not sure Wenger ever had a display like that.
He went 0 for during the 2nd half of the season away, definitely not new. Just replace mindless long balls down the wings with endless sideways game passes in front of their penalty box, accomplishes the same thing, 0 points and boredom
This team needs better leadership. I wouldn’t call us dysfunctional but need a force to keep the energy and passion up.
Have we had even a decent performance this year with a midfield besides Xhaka-Torreira? Guendouzi would be about my 8th choice starter right now, may be being generous as well. He has talent, he's just nowhere near ready for this level but got another 90 minutes somehow. That was Coquelin-2nd version of Flamini at their very worst today.
during our unbeaten run, we were at our best with a 4231 and özil at the 10 imo. the good times ended when özil was dropped. sure we gave up a goal or two a game, but we were banging in two or three.
also, thought it was tough for gwen and xhaka to keep possession in the mf when it was just the two of them there in the 343
Feel bad for my Guendouzi hate but just let him make his bones in the Europa league, Emery is doing him a complete disservice by throwing him in the deep end not knowing how to swim
Which I'm blaming on Emery, he shouldn't be playing. Xhaka-Torreira is the only good partnership we've seen this year but he's doing everything to not play them together. Emery better get it right next weekend vs Chelsea, biggest game of the year. Gonna get ugly if we lose that game.
Btw it’s going to be pure arsenal to sell neither Ramsey nor Ozil this window and have both hardly play the rest of the season
United about to catch up to us smh. Dropping 8 of 9 to soton, crystal palace and west ham is outdoing arsene
Cech retiring at the end of season. Surely we'll need a young goalie that’s any good - can’t just rely on Emi
arseblog then alludes to it having something to do with the rumors of offering a Director of Football role to Edu. would make sense that Mislintat would take issue with the club hiring over him.
yea Sven has a good track record with finding hidden gems, but the club needs someone beyond that right now. perfect world you keep both, but if I had to pick one give me the guy who can run the whole show.
