I am beginning to feel that we won't win the league either. We are firing far too many blanks and also gifting goals to the opposition. I just don't believe we have the mentality to get enough points from so many difficult upcoming games. We may get the odd result but we're not consistent enough. You have to perform well for the entire 90 minutes and we seem to switch off at times in our games and it costs us. Not scoring in 5 of our last 8 games is not going to win us anything either.

Unfortunately Strikers are pretty hard to find these days without going overboard on the spending front. But one thing i believe needs mentioning is why Giroud's form has dropped. Pretty much every year Giroud hits a run of games where he can't do anything right. He'll miss chances, passes and be practically useless. The only thing i can put it down to is being overplayed. We literally don't have another out & out striker in the team. Theo and Danny are wingers that have been converted and have had to alter their game to fit in. Who we could sign i don't know.. Someone clinical in front of goal would be best. We will always create chances for our strikers so we need a forward whose best attribute is finishing them.

The review of the Invincibles season was both brilliant and sad to watch. I know they were a once in a generation team but we really are so far removed from them its hard to believe. Pace, power, height, strength, fear. All that is gone with the current XI. Its sad to see.

Looked bad on the slo-mo. I agree with Gunnerblog's view on how we should line up:@gunnerblog: If Ox is out for any length of time, I'd go for Welbeck over Walcott on the right. Then when Santi's back shift Ramsey back there.https://twitter.com/gunnerblog/status/702637281757274113 I would even consider Welbeck down the left and Alexis on the right, just as a way of killing his habit of cutting in from the left. It's got way too predictable.

KaiserGunner wrote: » I don't agree with you, but even if I did who plays there apart from Ramsey? There is no one. Santi is out, So is Wilshere, Rosicky or even the Ox. I wouldn't be playing Flamini, Arteta or Elneny either.

jonneymendoza wrote: » question what? ramsey is poor! wtf is wrong with some of u! Our Mids would be cazola, coq and ozil if we have everyone fit. now tell me, who would you replace ramsey with on that lineup? And no, ramsey aint going nowhere near our front 3 as we need giruoud sanchez and either ox/wellbeck/wallcott on the other side. Maybe ramsey can play cb? LOL so please tell me where ramsey would fit on a full strength side?
jonneymendoza wrote: » Cazola of course! my reply was that someone said someone else except ramsey must make way for cazola when infact its ramsey that should make way. i would probably even sell him in the summer as he is average. Look how many times he lost the ball! he cant pass for ****. awful ball retention and doesnt have the goals to boot anymore either. Not good enough for this level
ronjo wrote: » Well he played Ramsey on the right side of midfield when we were flying in September and October in the league before Cazorla and Coquelin got injured. Ramsey was tucking in a bit and helping out the centre while Bellerin bombed down the wing. It may not have been perfectly balanced but it was working when we were whupping the likes of Leicester and Man Utd.
