    With what ozil and cazorla either side of him

    I like it but it's very very attacking

    Yup. It is very attacking but we dont have many options really.

    Yeah i mentioned that myself a few weeks back. Its just ive seen a few Arsenal websites this morning raving about him been back fit as if he was an important player in our squad.

    I used to use the Arsenal forum on Soccer 24-7 but it appeared that there was full of 5 yr olds on it given the limited vocabulary in their posts. The final straw came when one poster was encouraging us to sign Julian Faubert who was at Bordeaux at the time by virtue of the fact he was supposedly an Arsenal fan

    The problem with Ozil and Cazorla is that while good going forward they are not prepared to tackle or track back when losing possession. That has been left to our other midfielders unfortunately.

    I think I would be tempted to go

    =======Arteta===============
    ================Ox=========
    ===Ozil===Rosicky===Carzola====
    ===========Giroud===========

    in his defence Santi is getting better at this.

    Mesut though, he's not interested.

    I'd have to disagree. Cazorla has been very good at tracking back this season and I've seen him fill in for Gibbs at left back on a few occasions.

    I know that this isn't the most reliable stat to back up my point but Cazorla started everyone of our Premier League clean sheets this season.

    I think Wenger loves playing him because he does help that balance, as opposed to Ozil and Poldi.

    I have seen him on many occasions losing the ball and just standing there with hands on hips. Although he did chase back on Saturday after we went 2 down.
    Ozil didn't bother but then maybe that's the kind of player he is or maybe he was told to stay forward and not track back.

    Chelsea dropping points tonight is great but still counts for feck all unless we beat United tomorrow.

    The game tomorrow is 3 points and more importantly getting over our mental block.

    All this shíte about us we've been on top more gameweeks then anyone this season.


  • Moderators, Social & Fun Moderators, Paid Member Posts: 7,586 Mod ✭✭✭✭Irish Aris


    At this rate, Liverpool might start thinking they have a chance!
    So, win tomorrow and we are back on top.

    Could someone go and help them with the mental block they have against Utd?:D

    Full-time: West Brom 1-1 Chelsea: A great point for Chelsea, one that consolidates their position in the top four.
