Arsenal (the fiesta is mouldy) thread.

[PC14]

I think we'll Leno come in before the end of September. Distribution and comfort with ball at his feet will be the reason for this.

We didn't get the points but I think there are a lot of positives for Arsenal. We essentially created the same chance time and time again and Chelsea's defence still looked perplexed by it. Maybe Lacazette comes in.

I think we also see Torreira take over from Xhaka in partnering Guendouzi in the middle of the park, which I am excited to see. Apart from his first half against City, I think Guendouzi has been great, especially when you consider where he has come from. Will turn out to be a great signing for us.

On Bellerin - I think he has a bit to work on defensively, but he certainly gets very little help from Mikhi, who was very ordinary on Saturday, and a back line that is still trying to sort itself out.

It'll come together. How long it takes, no one really knows.

Who out of City, Liverpool, United and Tottenham are going to be caught by Chelsea and Arsenal? They all did better last year, they all have settled coaches and have only made small changes to their playing roster.

I'm not jumping to conclusions, i'm just a realist. There will be big changes to the top 4 next year but I don't think much will change this season.

I don't know. That is why I will wait till end of season to tell you. You may be correct, I just don't know how you can make that judgement of the 1st/2nd game of the season. All that needs to happen is that there is an injury to one or two key players of the teams you mentioned and they will be cactus. Who knows?

United are shit and Jose will be sacked before the season is gone. Arsenal and Chelsea are both better then United

Watched the West Ham game today paying close attention to thge Arsenal Right sided defending

Have to say Stanny you have nailed it with Bellerin

Handy going forward but honking as a defender

Really cant hide that anywhere

Hard to see how Emery could continue to persist with him


Arsenal collectively defensively still a shambles and a better side than West Ham wiuld have got more than 1

He is the new Marcelo. Attacks like a winger but defends like a winger. Haha. I think he got 2 assists today and made lots of key passes, so he is definitely helping in attack.


Today we were a shambles defensively. Trying to push out at different times, not holding a line, very slow to setup on the counter. Kos should be back in 2 weeks. He will hopefully settle things. Xhaka and Torreira can hopefully start the next game and form a partnership to settle us down on the counter. City drew at the Molinuex, the league is ours for sure.

Koscielny isn't much better then your current CBs though

I'm glad you think Mustafi and Sokratis are that good. Koscielny is top 5 CBs in the EPL when fit. Just hope his achilis is now sorted and it hasn't slowed him down. Otherwise we are going shopping again in 6 months.

Are 4 of the top 6 Luiz, Rudiger, Cahill and Christensen?

I wish only one who maybe gets in is Rudiger but I wouldnt pick him

How quick did you guys fall in love with Giroud. I love the sexy frenchmen

Huge 6 points last night.
Emery is a genius.

[Frodo]

With our demolition of Newcastle and Watford finally slipping up, the league is ours to lose now.

Almost time to start resting our star players for European football to ensure the double.

Just found this awesome video of Danny Welbz greatest assists compilation. Worth a watch.

Arsenal results in September.
wwwwwww

Perfect month, first time that's happened for a long time.

Leno has now got a chance to make that 1st team keepers jersey his own now. Cech just walks off and takes it in his stride, as he has done his entire career. Such an awesome bloke it looks like.
