This team is just built to score goals. Amazing the amount of clear cut chances they produce almost every game (albeit they so give up chances themselves). The pattern of attack is very unpredictable, multidimensional and that makes it difficult for opponents to live with them. I'll stress it again, we'll outscore many teams in this league (we could have outscored Chelsea if Auba and Mhiki didn't have an off day). We are heading in the right direction and we'll be so much better if Emery eventually gets his own players. COYG |

Another point; it's amazing how much better Arsenal play in second halves (scored the most second half goals in the league so far). This is testament to Emery's in-match reading skills and the fact that he isn't afraid to tweak his system or sub off under performing players no matter who they are. 1 Like |

sod09: No what I'm saying is if they're able to maintain this form till February or thereabout, we'll be convinced that there's truly a change. We're already used to seeing them flex their muscles at the early stage and later on they begin to fuçk up especially after January transfer window |

The same style of Goal that Lacazette scored in the first half is the same kind and style that Auba scored in the second. I can beat my chest and say that Torreira is the most fouled player this season in Europe. wetin sef!? The multi dimensional pace towards attack is sleeky. only 8touches to that Ramsey goal. And Mehn, I'm impressed. but let Emery get some African defenders that have a high work rate. Once that defence zips up, the goal difference would begin to look sensible. Iwobi needs to be faster once he arrives the opponents box. Coaches bow know his game is towards passing to a teammate. He should add unpredictability to it by firing at goal. Even Bellerin that don't know how to shoot at goal did today. Overall, nice game. 1 Like |

The team rotation has made everyone buckled up, Emery is wise not to reason like Wenger and some fans by sticking to a certain starting 11 week in week out, thereby making the likes of iwobi,welbeck,Matteo mhicky,Ramsey laca turn to dead wood. I reckon ozil will come back fired up as he won't want to be considered not good enough for starting. I feel we still need that sharp fast dribbling winger and maybe big strong black tireless defender. We wanted top4 the least, but seems Emery wants to be in the tittle race in his first year and that will be awesome. Wishing the lads injury free international break. 3 Likes 1 Share |

sod09: Lol @ "If Mustafi was black". Like @ Hardetayour said, they may have the brute strength, however, the modern game needs more than just physical strength, it requires a lot of positional intelligence and ball technique. |

Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Roland17(m): 4:57pm On Oct 10, 2018 |
KevinDein: In my initial post regarding this issue, I was careful to use the adverb "Mostly". That being said, Koulibaly is a very good defender, however, no one has watched Koulibaly outside of the Serie A/ Senegal and we are not sure if he would transition well. Boateng bawo? which one? The current Boateng or Boateng of 4 years ago? Varane may be the one I am open to but again, he is not exactly black. Maybe I should rephrase and say I prioritize intelligence, particularly positional intelligence/ awareness and technique over brute strength/ power for that position. |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by KevinDein: 6:41pm On Oct 10, 2018 |
Roland17:I'm finding it hard to believe those black players I listed would be key members of those top clubs without intelligence and technique. Admittedly black players are known to be physical and much stronger than players of other races but that's not all there is to their game. Bailey himself was once a fine defender in Spain until he got ruined by Jose. Watch him regain his form under another manager. |

Just love the structure that's associated with this Arsenal team, especially when attacking. The players seem to be acting under instruction, a total contrast to Wengers method where the players just go out there and freely express themselves. Things will only get better as the players have a better grasp of the new system

Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Roland17(m): 8:19pm On Oct 10, 2018 |
KevinDein: There may be a justified argument that Bailey is being mismanaged by Mou, heck the entire Man Utd squad is being mismanaged by Mou. However, that excuse will not hold for me in Bailly's instance and this is because Bailly was a one season wonder with Villarreal (2016/2016 season). Consequently, it does not surprise me that he has flopped and that is why he can not be compared to others. He is all about brawn and no brains and in this instance, I mean intelligence and technique. The art of defending is no longer about strength and power, the game has transitioned past that and most black defenders are still stuck in that phase. I am ardent follower of the Serie A and I am eager to see Koulibaly outside the Serie A. Most of the high profile defenders from the Serie A have struggled after they leave the league. |

Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Fkhalifa(m): 9:57pm On Oct 10, 2018 |
In today's football, especially in England, physicality and strength rules.. Why dou you think Chelsea and Leicester won the league? Fabregas himself said football used to be techniques and brains, but now power and pace.. I've watched Chelsea's luiz and rudiger well this season, and one thing I get jealous and wish we have is their strength, physicality and aggression, there's nothing much special about them technically. Koscienly despite his brilliant play,his lack of physicality costs us a lot, I remembered how lukaku,pogba and griezmen fell him off the ball. Our center pairings of Campbell and Toure was succesful largely because of physicality. Mustafi,bellerrin,chambers,holding and monreal are sexy girls,and that's why Diego Costa and other ruthless players bully us a lot. I insist we go sign black, tall, energetic no nonsense defender. |
