Bro let's do something, we should rate this defence and midfield to the one wengay have been parading.
I think we can agree this defence is not the worst but the midfield is way terrible compare to wengay's days

BlueRayDick:


Goan preach dis gospel to barca fans lemme see if they will not curse arsenal to suffer trophylessness for 600 years

Jodera:
no they won't. Tierney will replace kola and sokratis is never a 1st team player under Arteta.

Emery made them clowns. From next season, the only person I might be afraid of been a clown in starting 11 is luiz, but then it comes occasionally.
Luiz, Mari, Saliba, holding, chambers.
I believe they'll all do a decent work.

But you see that midfield and attack, I'm afraid esp if auba isn't spectacular as this season

BlueRayDick:


I hope u are not saying this current useless defence is superior to A backline of Nacho monreal, Koscienly, Matersacker and Bellerin

Just tell me that's not what u mean so I no go break this wine bottle scatter everywhere like a shesi fan o

Jodera:
I know I've once asked this thing before...
A defence containing Silvester, djorou, Andre Santos, Gibbs, Jenkinson, even koscienly at a point. Yet we still made top 4.

Those defence across those season, if it's now, they'll be slated way more than this sef

Yes the defence that conceded 8-2, 6-3, 6-0, 10-2 etc
Is that one defence?
Apart from individual mistake these ones does they don't concede anyhow.
Below are the cricket score wengay defence dish us tell me how do you survive that and claim these present defence didn't try

BlueRayDick:


All the teams listed up there are big teams giving arsenal(an inferior team that had no big signing) a drubbing of their life.....

What we have today is a Wilfred Zaha inspired Crystal palace beating arsenal courtesy of a misfit like Mustafi in defence, a newly promoted team like Brighton doing a double over Arsenal, Arsenal not being able to manage a win on 2 legs in the EPL against 4cking sheffield. ...etc

Going by how much u lamented about Wenger and continually called for his sack, one would think u will be glad seeing arsenal consolidating on winning smaller.teams already and moving on to beat bigger teams. But here u are are comfortable with arsenal losing to Some damn bottom and mid table teams all season long

Jodera:
leave am brother.
I told my brother (who's a barca fan) that Bayern will humiliate them ystdy. He said it's a lie. I asked him, aside messi, who is the next wildcard in the team, cos if Bayern just hold messi, everything don finish. He said that's the problem, nobody can hold messi. I just look am laugh.

Now messi was way subdued yesterday, and nobody in that attack and midfield could cause trouble, but na defence we go blame.

There's a saying that if a beautiful lady doesn't have brains, the private part suffers. No truer words than that wen you have a dead dead midfield and attack, cos almost everyone knows midfield (mostly) and attack is the brain of a team

Jodera:
Gbam

Jodera:
E just tire me for spy I swear.
See waves after waves of attack, but na defence we go look. He's even calling Suarez sef. Suarez wey don expire since 2017, that shouldn't be in barca squad talk more of 1st team.

I remember how Madrid beat athletico in semi final 4-1 in champions league with Ronaldo scoring hat trick. I guess a whole athletico then doesn't have defence

iamoyindamola:

You are not getting the point here, you want the defence out but we are telling you that's the last problem.
Where was the midfield when attackers are struggling to get goals, apart from auba which attacker of arsenal have 15 goals and assist combine.
Attack wise or defence wise what did the midfield do?
The defence you complained about scored about 7 goals and midfield only had 2 goals.

BlueRayDick:


All well and good! I would be here to see u curse Mustafi, Kolasinac, Papasthapopulous or Luiz when next either of them decide to drop their regular disaster class defending performance

BlueRayDick:


1. Arsenal has one of the best strikers in the league in Aubameyang. He turns in an average of 22 EPL goals every season. How many Epl teams have such?

2. Arsenal has a Saka that is one of the most promising youngsters in the league. At 18 he's not too far behind Kevin De Bruyne in assists/goal contributions.

3. Arsenal has pepe that had 18 goal contributions in his first season at An Elite club in the EPL coming from a backwater French ligue 1.


4. Wolveampthon Wanderers is sitting atop Arsenal because their defence is more compact than Arsenal. They scored lesser goals but also conceded lesser goals.

5. If Arsenal keep fielding those clowns in our backline, our attackers will score but we will concede like we did this season and it will end in tears. Arsenal should get a player in the mould of Upamecano and maybe our goals allowed will reduce

Akinbahm:


Individually, Arsenal has good attackers but collectively No that's why Man United front three of Martial Rashford and Greenwood is more deadly to Arsenal PAL.

Statistically I can tell u GSM is better on paper than Perisic Lewandowski Gnabry but better than GSM on pitch cause they work collectively...

Biko, dont join the league of fans who believed that a team fielded of star players on a pitch playing outside position would be deadly bro, that shit nah greatest scam in football. That's why RB Leipzig without their star man still held Ath Madrid down and I wont be surprise if they eliminate PSG self and if they try to get star players against next season might affected them especially if played out of position...

Jodera:
Come on guys. We shouldn't be thinking about wolves and Sheffield conceding less goals compared to their goals scored as example for us to have good defence. We are a top club and we should think as one. Those guys park the bus and play low blocks, route one football and what nots, is that how we should aspire to be?

Bayern conceded two goals ystdy but nobody gave a hoot about that and everyone hailed them, not because they conceded two but they obliterated their opponents.
Athletico lost to Leipzig not even with all the negative football they played two days ago. Nobody mentioned Leipzig for conceding but it's athletico who was out.

If Bayern hadn't created numerous chances yesterday with their midfield and attack and/or lose all the chances they created yesterday, thereby losing 2-0, I'm sure some people will remind us how bad their defence had always been and why they're in farmer's league. But now it's the opposite, it's now how bad barca defence is, forgetting to tell us how great Bayern midfield and attack is.

This Same Bayern conceded 3 against Tottenham in one match, yet we know who cried at the end of that same match.

And my I add, very few teams fear a team with v.good defence but average attack and midfield, but most teams fear a team with average defence but v.good attack and midfield

Come on guys!!

BlueRayDick:


If u really want to put things into perspective, here it is:

ATTACK WISE :

1. Aubameyang 22 goals + 3 assists
2. Lacazette 10 goals + 3 assists
3. Pepe 5 goals + 5 assists

DEFENCE WISE

We conceded 48 goals....just 8 goals short of the 56 goals our attack fired past our opponents.

How can any fan be comfortable with this defence? Funny enough as it stands the oy thing that will change in our defence is a 19 year old Saliba that is yet to play in a team as big arsenal in a very fast league like Epl.

You may be comfortable with this defence and think midfield should be the first point of call, but I'm not

iamoyindamola:

Simple
We have been talking about attack and defence because this is where arsenal players are played out of position but midfield that xhaka have been playing from birth yet nothing to show for it, same with willock, Jerry curls etc

iamoyindamola:

Of course the defence is prone to error but tell us what midfield contributed last season

Akinbahm:


Baba, I want to ask u sth simply highlight 4 games each away & home Arsenal won in Epl convincingly with an average of 3to4 goals...

Akinbahm:

Baba forget this yarn Barca attack was absolutely dead even Bayern self no get defence nah Barca attackers Bleep up wey no pressurize Bayern defence.

I'm still on my word attackers win you games your defense nd your squad depth win you league.

Nah only Messi I fit rate in that Barcelona squad...

Akinbahm:


Compare and contrast Messi Suares Griezmann to Neymar Messi Suares nd tell me which is more deadly even Barcelona fans preferred Ansu Fati ahead of Griezmann for that wing at the bolded shows that Barca attackers aren't yet ready to lead the team yet...

Lastly bro, forget about all this media hype of GSM they look normal as PAL...

Random question I want to ask.
If a prime busquets, xavi and iniesta was in that midfield with same defence of yesterday, would the scores have reached 8??

Raul is gone, is this because of Pepe's purchase
I read the board were surprised the amount used in buying was too much
