But how come other young players are allowed to make more mistakes and still get picked? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as i'm with you with your first 5 words, I do imagine the players are told the formation prior to one hour before the match 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This place will be in meltdown if this game goes t!ts up. It’s not too dissimilar to Chelsea and Man City. Rightfully Ricardo has been pushed up, and Maddison dropped who’s been way off it recently. The only thing I’m disappointed with is that N’didi still keeps his place despite being our worst player for a large chunk of the season. I would have stuck Iborra in there today.

This formation beat Chelsea and Man City and everyone cried when we didn't play it against Cardiff. But with Ghezzal in the starting XI we certainly would not have won against Chelsea and ManCity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A win is a win, and we should be bloody happy if we do win. Not hoping to lose to get him sacked. Some posters seem to be forgetting a few years back we were begging for a win, now all of a sudden people want us to lose. Deluded. I was actually just taking the P out of the original post which said the opposite. Just because it was so ridiculous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as he can't attack I feel we would miss him esp away from home against a side like Everton, just his passing and forward play that isn't very good Edited 1 January 2019 by whoareyaaa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twister Posted 1 January 2019 Share Posted 1 January 2019 Hi a arsenal fan in peace again before I am off to the fullham game, wondering what mitrovic will do to our 34 year old right back and the rest of our creaking back four/five. I just saw the line up at everton for todays game and bewildered again to see albrighton left out for you , he is such a solid performer and i cant see what ghezzal has offered , he is a very poor mans mahrez from what ive seen without any of the ability. I know he fears evertons counter attack and obviously wants to do a brighton and steal the game on the break, but im concerned without maddison to break and albrightons work rate you may suffer today.

Jacafox Posted 1 January 2019 Share Posted 1 January 2019 Our 4th match in 10 days, we need to mix it up a bit, rest some players, Albrighton looked knackered Saturday, Puel is using the squad, I agree we need to add more quality, glad to see Hamza back, Ghezzal?

I'm entirely with you, I'm fine with the team based on Saturday and the need to rest players. But that three in the middle WITH the other changes is a bit too far to the defensive side of things.

les-tah Posted 1 January 2019 Share Posted 1 January 2019 (edited) Regardless of how well Ndidi plays on the ball he will still tackle and break up play.. and even more effective against a team that will attack so that will be why he may always start.

Legend_in_blue Posted 1 January 2019 Share Posted 1 January 2019 Fuchs for Chilwell and Iborra for Ghezzal. Why's he not going all out defence?!?! The lack of a defensive minded setup is odd. Baffling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, if we lost one it would be Mendy IMO. Wilf does the dirty work better than anyone, despite being awful with the ball. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
