What are you on about?

What are you on about?

I believe in the manager and the team. Think we can do a good job. Think we'll see a lot of positive stuff and I expect us to perform as well as this squad can. No reality check, we aren't as good a team but we can win and might.

Regardless I expect us to acquit ourselves admirably

I don't really believe in this team tbh, I don't rate most of them.

One of the worst Arsenal teams we’ve ever had. Spent a **** load of cash too in the last 3 years to build this pile of crap.

Like I said in a previous thread...we have 8 defenders on our books and only 1 can actually defend

 

[Makavelii]

need Luiz to not play , he has way too many brain farts. Lucky he didn’t get a red against SU

Ainsley can pocket Sterling just need Luiz to not drop the ball and Xhaka to not play

The bandwagoning on this forum annoys me so much. Can you guys explain the strengths and weaknesses of these players?
If not, you’re probably on the bandwagon and should leave it to Arteta to make these decisions.

A lot of the bad stuff will be gone in the summer. Still a massive rebuild job to do.

CB, AM, CF all of starting quality required if we're serious. And we need to find money for Ceballos

Half of them are only here because of some dodgy scam we have going with Kia Joorabchian. Then the same people complain about having no money to spend.

Luiz strength = amazing hair
Luiz weakness = low concentration

Xhaka strength = amazing at pointing
Xhaka weakness= not mobile ( home even house phone )

Xhakas strengths are he rarely gets injured, he's the third best forward passer of our centre mids, and he can play the occasional useful switch of play. His weaknesses are he's positionally suspect, can't pass out from the back well, slow, immobile, rash at times, doesn't have a first touch good enough to turn and gain time for quick passing therfore slow down play.

Not everyone who doesn't rate a player is on a 'bandwagon'

There is no better time to play City. They don't look like the team they used to be, plus they are missing some key players up front. We can do it.

 

[Breezy]

Is Prince Harry really ruled out through?

I think it's the exact opposite. It's a bad time to play City. They made a poor start and they'll be eager to turn it around. The international break has given them ample time to prepare and they have players coming back from injury.

As for us, Partey won't be ready.

 

[Multipass]

Sterling and De Bruyne withdrawn without injuries as precautions. Since when did national teams have their players' club interests at heart. Im expecting both to be fit to face arsenal.

Indeed. The bulk of this team was under Wenger’s regime a lot of average players on huge salaries cause we were still a CL club. A lot will be gone this summer.

I am more optimistic than I have been in about 10 years tbh. A shame some don’t see it.

 

[Oxeki]

Teams are no longer afraid of them like they were 2 years ago. They're still one of the best team in the world. But they've lost that aura. Everyone now knows that they have a soft underbelly.

Yeah the money we spent and looking at the players we have it's ridiculous. Xhaka, Mustafi and Lacazette cost almost 150 million between them and all 3 aren't even guarantee starters.

You spout an unholy amount of crap. I'm not surprised though. This is probably one of the best Arsenal sides in terms of individual players we've seen over the past 10 years. We also have the best attacking squad depth we've seen for a very, very long time.

There is something wrong with you. Awful opinions and an awful poster, you are the definition of bottom of the barrel.

 

[razörist]

So are all their injured players fit just in time to ruin us?
