iamoyindamola:The league is harder unlike previous seasons. Everyone without bias knows this defence is better than Emery's defence. What we just need is a Sanchez type of winger and we're good to go. |

iamoyindamola:I dey come Modified: after checking it, we had only 3 comebacks out of 38 league matches(west ham 3-1, Tottenham 4-2 and Leicester 3-1). In fact, teams do comeback against us than we did against them. I no know the comeback kings wey you and spy talk say we been do ![]() ![]() |

Jodera:Leemao I laugh in Swahili, why do we need Sanchez type of player when defence will win you league |

iamoyindamola:We chop 4 goals someone said kudos to Gabriel and co, let's chop 2 goals with Mustafi and Luiz at the back you for don see analysis . The stats are there to see, the problem of this team is still that midfield and attack. How many shots or threats did the Liverpool backline face, it's common sense that the more threats faced the more likelihood to concede, it's results like this that fool peeps into thinking VVD is the next thing after slice bread. At a point VVD had to come to midfield just to get involved cos he was idle and bored. What they don't know is attack is the best form of defense. They held the ball more than we could, if you are with the ball can your opponents score? You need a good midfield and attack to be a threat or control possession but defence is our priority. Defence that could hardly keep strings of clean sheet even with the run of playing average teams. Una no know ball for this thread. |

iamoyindamola:I'm not even proponent of defence win you league sef, but you see this season... Na defence done carry us go far. Exclude the -9 goal difference we had in the first 3 matches wen the defence wasn't around and you'll know this your -4 way you dey talk about no be their fault. Blame the clowns of the first 3 matches and not this present one that's trying to clean up the deficit. And my reason for Sanchez-like is that we need a goal scoring winger, all top teams have one except arsenal. Now that we have a midfielder in ESR that's popping in goals, we need a good wing forward that can pop in goals too (saka is not consistent with it). Lacazette is not someone who's consistent and that leaves only Auba with the scoring responsibility in that forward line. E no gel na ![]() |

iamoyindamola:Defence will win league yet someone was salivating for a player like Ndidi. |

kokanepyramid:I have tried every possible example to prove this to them from slow mertasacker and Kos to Barcelona defence during their dominance era. All I see is they don't want mustafi and his clowns, now they have all gone but results is even worse ![]() ![]() |

Jodera:This confirms my assertion that most peeps here get carried away by activity. More of Brawns and less of brains. Na why some peeps here will famz Ramsey and Guen while berating Ozil |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by iamoyindamola(m): 12:52pm On Nov 22, 2021 |
Jodera:No go there Let assume the season start at Anfield, we were on zero goal difference Only for them to chop 4 most of us here were begging Liverpool to stop scoring, I swear I no see Gabriel throughout the game na only white, Tomi and tavarez be like gabu ghost abi we play short one ![]() Liverpool mess up our over hyped defence, it should have been 8 or 9 if not for ramsdale |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Jodera: 12:55pm On Nov 22, 2021 |
kokanepyramid:Like I said earlier, that Liverpool game is not even a matter of defence or midfield or attack, it's down to coach. Klopp still wallop Emery 5-1 with midfield of Ozil, torriera and attack of Auba and lacazette. Him still wallop Wenger 4-0 with ozil Sanchez and cazorla. If you watch that Liverpool game and you think we stood any chance to win that game cos of poor midfield instead of the superior tactics employed by klopp then you need to rewatch that match again. Until Arteta increase his tactical acumen to outwit klopp and guardiola, we go always dey collect for their hands even if we have prime ozil, cazorla Sanchez and rosicky in midfield and attack. 1 Like 1 Share |

Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Jodera: 12:59pm On Nov 22, 2021 |
kokanepyramid:We need brawns as well as brains. There's a reason the likes and calibre of ozil, fabregas and mata type of players are heading to extinction |

Jodera:You sound as if Liverpool has been unbeaten this season. They've dropped 11 points already. Can you list the teams they dropped points against and tell me what they did differently I want to see something. |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Jodera: 1:02pm On Nov 22, 2021 |
iamoyindamola:you didn't see Gabriel?? ![]() |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by iamoyindamola(m): 1:03pm On Nov 22, 2021 |
Jodera:Did you see us say we will beat LFC, if arsenal want to lose have some pride, stress and disturb the defence Actually we have a shot at the game the goals were down to individual errors which I won't blame the team for cos when tavarez go the ball from Arnold it's an opportunity for counter but he didn't see anyone lfc closed us down. Forcing him to commit that's what we want our midfield to do, press and press till they commit It got to a stage they over pressed us we voluntory passed to them, there is nothing defence can do in such situation cos pressure pipe is severely bursted na free flow of water remain Modern football don't need more of good defenders just get better midfielders way sabi die. Look at ox that day he defended and attack non stop Tell me did matip or vvd have anything to do in form of defense |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by iamoyindamola(m): 1:03pm On Nov 22, 2021 |

Jodera:You confirmed in your post I quoted that they have more Brawns than brains. Or what do you mean by "less talented but more fighting spirit" I agree with that line though. |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Nobody: 1:06pm On Nov 22, 2021 |
iamoyindamola:Same Brentford wiped us, reason I'm asking him to bring up the teams and tell me what those teams did differently. |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by iamoyindamola(m): 1:09pm On Nov 22, 2021 |
Their is a reason wengay doesn't joke with his midfield most especially Against world class Barca he will still have his own share of possession, but these present one will either do hide and seek or find it hard to put 10 passes together |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Jodera: 1:31pm On Nov 22, 2021 |
kokanepyramid:West ham, Brighton, Chelsea, man city Brentford. At least that's the five teams I can remember with only west ham beating them. Like I said, it depends on the coach. Brentford matched them strength to strength same as Brighton, but Arteta was busy parking the bus and inviting Liverpool to dominate them. Reason why I said it's the coach cos even if you dash Arteta prime ozil, Sanchez and cazorla, he'll still park the bus wen he sees Liverpool and man city. It's a mental block something |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Nobody: 1:35pm On Nov 22, 2021 |
Jodera:Amongst these teams how many of them have we met and won? |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Jodera: 1:36pm On Nov 22, 2021 |
kokanepyramid:you said it's the reason why we prefer Ramsey and guen to Ozil, and I told you we need more than just ozil now. I said we need brains as well as brawns cos only ozil type midfielders won't take us anywhere presently with the way things are in epl. Reason why I said we need Sanchez and cazorla type cos they're both brains and brawns |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Jodera: 1:39pm On Nov 22, 2021 |
kokanepyramid:Aside west ham, we've met and lost against the rest. While I agree we lost against man city and Chelsea but the squad against Brentford (esp midfield and attack) is not EPL standard so I won't judge arsenal match with that |

Jodera:Wetin I do? The only thing I said about Emery's Arsenal is that they grind out results, which the entire thread made fun of. Sod call am grinding machine. I nor talk anything about comeback o. That one na Sod own. |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Jodera: 1:40pm On Nov 22, 2021 |
iamoyindamola:Please do cos Gabriel was our best defender on the day |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Jodera: 1:42pm On Nov 22, 2021 |
Spy360:Lol... Go jack Iamoyindamola oo. Him say na you and him acknowledge say Emery been do comeback kings ![]() ![]() |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Jodera: 1:45pm On Nov 22, 2021 |
iamoyindamola:I want to ask you a question. The Brentford and Brighton that matched Liverpool strength to strength and almost won them, did they have better midfield and attack than arsenal? |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Nobody: 1:45pm On Nov 22, 2021 |
Jodera:These teams we lost to, are they known about their defending prowess or how they attack? How many times do we get to threaten and test their defences? How many shots do they face/match on average, their average possession per match. Compare with ours there lies your answer |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Spy360(m): 1:50pm On Nov 22, 2021 |
Jodera:I knew that the moment we lose against Liverpool, Kokane will appear like Willie Willie and start his midfielders/attackers crusade. Like he expected us to beat Liverpool. Liverpool that has maintained the same squad for over 5 years, won league and CL, with a very good and respected manager and about the best players in the world. FFS, this Arsenal team is just being built, they aren't there yet. They have not even blended not to talk of discovering their best formation. This team is the youngest and most inexperienced team right now in EPL, with a rookie coach. They held their own against this Liverpool side toe to toe for 40mins before collapsing under pressure. Yet the best we can say about them is to criticise them. So much for being a fan. |
