Granit Xhaka's game by numbers vs. Leicester:
96 passes
6 crosses
5 chances created
4 shots
2 assists
It was not one of his best games.

His subs (Ramsey and Giroud) plus formation and tactical changes (3-4-3 to 4-4-2) (Ox to RB, Bells to LB, Lacazette, inside left, Ozil 10, Theo Wide Right, then Ramsey running into space Izil vacates etc etc) won him the game.Robbynice wrote:Fact not feelings broNkume wrote:Relax!

I only watched the last 30 minutes of the Game, I actually thought that this was one of Ozil better games. He ran onto the ball, made himself available constantly, ... etc. We all know the guy doesn't want to defend, but if he actually provides a constant outlet to other players, I would be happy. And I feel that he actually did that yesterday. I'm surprised he got such poor marks. But again, I didn't watch the whole game.

He was so much of a problem, Leicester's Manager asked Ndidi to try and man mark him out of the game he failed. Ozil moved to number 10, he occupied spaces moving with and moving the ball. Ramsey then moved into the spaces he has left. He controlled Arsenal's game for the last 20 minutes esp as we ran out winners.
Xhaka made mistakes but when the chips were down he was also influential. He set up Ramsey for the crucial 3rd goal.

He was a different player in the last 30 or so once Arsenal switched him directly behind the front 2, he was not very good before then.bepanda wrote:I only watched the last 30 minutes of the Game, I actually thought that this was one of Ozil better games.

Re: The Arsenal - Related News and Development for 2017/2018
For once I sort of agree with you. We should have bought Van Dijk when he was at Celtic a few years ago. Right now, we are covered at the back. I still expect Mustafi to come good.anikulapo wrote:If Arsenal add Van dijk and Nzonzi .... oh well why bother

Re: The Arsenal - Related News and Development for 2017/2018
There is a funny story that Ozil has demanded that his agent force a move to Barcelona there is a part of me that wishes this was true
Again like someone said Ozil and Mahrez might be the only two players to put in a transfer request when no team wants them

Why does Petr Cech get a pass consistently ?
Re: The Arsenal - Related News and Development for 2017/2018
Do you know the last time he last saved a penalty in the premier league was in 2011. And he has not saved any in an Arsenal shirt 0 for 11...bepanda wrote:Why does Petr Cech get a pass consistently ?
That is by the way. Cech is a good keeper who is on the decline, unfortunately.

Re: The Arsenal - Related News and Development for 2017/2018
^agreed, almost entirely, My Son's spot shouldn't be guaranteed, Oxlade has looked the better fit at wingback. As for Van Dijk, no need, Callum Tony Adams is still on deck, Bobby Holding, Gabriel and then there's Biejlik (likely misspelt) who weighs 5kgs more than last season and has gone up a shoe size. There's enough there to get it done.

You know Wenger won't get ride of those two. I read Ozil is getting paid big money...
According to reliable sources, Alexis was in Paris today with his agent. It was also confirmed by Arsenal Fan TV.
I don't see how this guy is going to stay at Arsenal. If I were him, I would do the same ...
With all the great goals Arsenal will score this season, their defensive approach to the game is simply wrong. And it starts with the Wenger.
Lacazette this, Giroud that ... scoring goals has never been Arsenal problem. Preventing goals is their main issue... Nothing has changed. Buying 5 more defenders won't change it. It is about philosophy, accountability, and tactics ... Back 3, Back 4, Back 5 ... doesn't matter ... !!!

If ozil's name was in the mix, you'll know - feels like an agent trying to talk his client into the Barca dance - got luv for dude but on the real his name ain't on that Catalan playlist right now.

Pretty unambitious stance by the club - we've always known we'd players to get rid off, we also know to a man they'll want the full value of their contracts but lean back & end up in the same place every season.Gooner1 wrote: ....as expected, afc have called off the pursuit of lemar, and now is concentrating on cutting their wage bill
