Chei dd sabi troll sha .
2 of the finest indigenous coaches Nigeria ever had lost in a space of 4 days. Dear Lord, is this a sign that you are taking away from us what we failed to appreciate? I pray for forgiveness of our sins. I pray for the humility to recognize our wrongs and the humbleness and wisdom to right our ways.

It is the NLD, form goes out of the window. Anything can happen. Because your team is desperate they will resort to desperate measures by trying to unsettle our players with rough play. I expect a high score and couple of red cards.[color=brown]kajifu[/color] wrote: Why is Arteta getting a pass but Emery was sacked even though we were 8 but Arteta we have the worst run since 1981 and 14 in the table,After sunday it will be 16 in the standing likely?

Re: The Arsenal FC - Related News and Devts for 2020-21 Seas
Now guys have cooled a bit, let's do a small tactical analysis.
Look at our passmap from the Wolves game. It is a shocker. The worst I have seen from us in 5 seasons, and there have been some bad ones of late
It really exposes what the problem is in this team, and why Arteta has been playing his rigid, defensive 3-4-3 system. Let me stress, this is now a pattern with this set up using these players of recent, teams like Villa, Leicester, Wolves now beat us at home, when it was the top clubs that used to.
The thing is, when you study our set up, Arteta is actually fielding 3 central midfielders to disguise the fact that it was actually a 3 at back, with Xhaka at Left Centre Back. So the 4-3-3 is actually not what it looks, because Xhaka is LCB without the ball, but in possession, he steps out to LCM, and Ceballos goes RCM. Okay, there are variations, so it is not that simple.
But it can be frustrating because Arteta seems to sets out his team almost, to play the system, and not the game. I mean, at times, you had Saka deep, Willock WR, whilst the Luiz switch was the only mode of creating chances.
Now compare and contrast us to City's passmap vs. Burnley.
Need I say a thing? Note the glaring differences to us.
Our passmap begs the question, why have 3 in midfield when 2 of your midfield occupy the same spaces as the CBs and the LW? You can see why teams easily run straight through us.
How can you dictate games when you have nobody in midfield? Look, we actually have nobody who functions directly in the midfield. Our passing lanes shows everything we attempt goes down the left flank and we have no central or dominant midfield presence.
We do not use central midfield as a passing lane. Also, nobody finds that space between the opposition midfield and defence. In effect, our attackers are starved completely of service and cannot link up with their central midfielders.
Look! This cannot continue. My fear is, I saw players who did not believe against Wolves. I saw signs in the players that took me back to the last days of Emery. That passmap suggests more than system and tactics being wrong. The NLD, will be the game that shows us, what is really going on.

Re: The Arsenal FC - Related News and Devts for 2020-21 Seas
No need for plenty analysis.
- This same team ( save some improvements ) played 3-5-2 and we complained about them being boring and not creating enough chances - BUT we were not shipping goals or losing matches at home.
- So what can be inferred from this ? we dont have the skillset to play what he has changed the team to play, simple.
We have the skillset to be boring and scrape by lose some win some better go back to that and play that till we get to January.
-Now to the unseen.... Players dont seem happy for some reason ( we cannot postulate ) but they are unhappy . He needs to figure this out too , i will not speculate as to why I dont know dont have a crystal ball or mind reading machine. but the players are not happy.

Guys,
remember when Waffiman was your god? and everything he said, you lapped it up and fawned all over him, running to climb on his laps and be fed with his knowledge?
Now, only one person responded to him, while others just read, roll their eyes and move on.
Oh! Chale! how times have changed.

I think it looks like its wide open this season with about 4 teams for the title(Spurs,Liverpool,Chelsea,City).
What can team like Arsenal do to close the gap?

Nah! Arsenal sold Giroud against his will, to fund the purchase of Aubameyang. A fantastic decision, given Auba's contribution, despite Giroud's worth to Arsenal over the years.Bigpokey24 wrote:Assanal sold Giroud to Chelsea, chelsea gave them Willian and Luiz
