Akinbahm:A testimony of bad defending. Did you see Alphonso Davies turn Roberto Carlos, a fullback taking an entire defense in a run? |

Kbs468:Good I think it has to do with Pepe's transfer |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Spy360(m): 3:46pm On Aug 15, 2020 |
Akinbahm:Our attack is OK. We have Aubameyang, Lacazette and Pepe. On their day, they can win you games. Our midfield is poor. No creativity. Ceballos and Xhaka only picked up under Arteta. Our defence is very poor. Arteta managed the situation by ignoring midfield and sending more bodies there- especially as seen against City. Fact is we have been playing supposedly without a midfield. What does this mean? Like you have been saying, a good attack can manage to win you games by outscoring your opponents. A good defence will ensure you don't lose. You need both. But a good defence is more critical because it is what sustains you and keep you relevant (that's why Wolves and Sheffield were mentioned). Right now with our defence, we cannot play an extra midfielder or attacker, that would be suicidal. As a matter of fact, we have had to sacrifice a midfielder or attack just to make sure of our defence. Let's get a solid defence, and we can afford to play an extra man in midfield or attack. |

Spy360: He added to what to the attack very simple baba. What Alphonso did to Semedo yesterday forced the coach to tell semedo to man his primary assignment that's to defend now imagine Alphonso is only good defensive wise that mean the left wing would be totally dead... Again if notice Bayern operated through that wing most times and it was really beneficial to them. |

Akinbahm:We are saying same thing but you don't want to simply admit. Bayern attacked with their fullbacks no doubt. The extra numbers in midfield overwhelmed Barça's midfield, accepted. But you see that Barça defending? They were just everywhere and no where. When they pushed forward they usually create chances but when defending they were just simply poor. Bayern's players were having a full day running in and around that backline. Just take a look at all the goals, 1. A one two between Lewa and Muller right at the centre of the box left the keeper exposed, a simple shot by Muller-goal. 2. Perisic unmarked on the left shoots straight at keeper with deflection 3. Gnabry runs past a defender unmarked face to face to keeper after escaping a high line 4. Muller runs through the defence unmarked to score a tap in 5. Lewa nods in free header no one marking 6. Davies dribbles through the entire defence, finds Kimmich totally unmarked 7/8. Coutinho runs through the defence I painstakingly pointed each goal out, go see for yourself. All of the goals Barça conceded were due to poor marking, even the subs reacted angrily. |

BlueRayDick:My brother. Hopefully it'll be right for the team. I just have this belief that if we sign a good DM and Am, I'll be confident of top4 barring any long term injury to any of our key player(s).. |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Jodera: 7:32pm On Aug 15, 2020 |
iamoyindamola:Lol... I tire. That's wen we get midfield o. Imagine now wey we no get midfield? |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Jodera: 7:47pm On Aug 15, 2020 |
iamoyindamola:see bro. Anytime I watch arsenal match then, once we did not hold control of the game (both in possession and chances created), just forget it, I know we'll lose. That's how bad our defence was then. Dem Gibbs and Jenkinson couldn't see shirt in any small team, except arsenal. But we made them look average. Even monreal was so poor at first for a season plus before he was consistent. The only person I see who was consistent was mertesacker, yet he was madly average. That tells you how bad our defence is. The midfield/attack as you know needs no introduction |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by iamoyindamola(m): 7:50pm On Aug 15, 2020 |
Jodera:The midfield then was top notch who dare challenge arsenal in midfield battle...them dead |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Jodera: 7:56pm On Aug 15, 2020 |
Akinbahm:that's what I want spy to know. Both defence team aren't good. What prevailed was who has a better midfield and attack to capitalised on the weak defence. Sadly barca midfield and attack wasn't it. They targeted semedo wing anytime he overlaps yet Roberto was no where to be found. Busquets is passed it. These are the little things(attack) midfield ought to snuff out before it becomes too hot for the defence to handle |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Jodera: 8:00pm On Aug 15, 2020 |
iamoyindamola:as in... Which small team wan compare with us. It's only wen we meet our mates for midfield like man city, Chelsea, man u we dey collect cos their midfield pass our own and our defence na scrap. So they'll surely edge us out. But now, small team o, big team o, all na our seniors. Imagine? We couldn't win ordinary wolves during Emery tenure. Who does that? |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by iamoyindamola(m): 8:06pm On Aug 15, 2020 |
Jodera:Arsenal still edge those clubs you listed in midfield just that wengay will play giroud, bendtner, chamakh and they will be wasting chances upon chances. The only time we played those big clubs was when rvp is in mad form. Imagine auba was fortunate to play those kind midfielders even song was balling not xhaka that can't pass 1m to his team mate |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Jodera: 8:07pm On Aug 15, 2020 |
Spy360:Any team that concedes from 5 goals upwards(in terms of mauling o, not 5-4, 6-5 tinz) is no longer defence. It's purely midfield and attack work. Take a look at the stats below, what was the team doing to warrant 13 shots on goal(target)? You can blame the defence only, but me I'll hold the team generally as a whole. A good functioning team with good midfield attack and defence can't allow such

iamoyindamola:Hmm.. It's true sha. Seeing how we'll do the playing and they'll do the scoring. Lol If auba dey then eh, him for break shearer record tey tey |
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: Finally Reborn! The Red & White Army: FA CUP Champions 2020 by Jodera: 8:17pm On Aug 15, 2020 |
Spy360:Lol.. Na marathon league I dey talk o. Not all these cups that even relegated Wigan and Birmingham can win. And if you don't know, na top 4 I dey think of. Nothing concern me concern league now. Wen time to compete for league, na me go personally campaign let dem change that defence. But for now, you see that front 6. I just need A partey-like DM and a Coutinho-like Am. Finish. If we get those two, if we no finish top 4, make you and Blueray drag me here till end of the season. |
