One of the reasons he's better as a CF. Less opportunity to force the play.
Its a hard one... All the stats & production suggest he is better upfront but as a team we seem to play better with him wide.

I'd disagree, I think we're more fluid with Alexis up top.
Alexis tries to force the play an awful lot from wide areas. Constant cutting it, pausing and considering playing in Monreal or going it alone. When Alexis is up top he has more of an unpredictability to his game. Plus, he's our best finisher.

I agree. Alexis showed when he was our CF that he head learned from his spell last season and given a run at it, he improved a lot. Wenger was praising him and saying he was surprised how quickly Alexis had adapted to CF. Then Giroud returned from injury and so too did Welbeck, Alexis was shifted wide and our downhill spiral started. Tbh I think it also started the negative thoughts in Alexis mind. If I was him watching Giroud and boy blunder playing CF, I would have negative thoughts too!
Spiral started way before that , I'd rather play Alexis up top or 2nd striker but he started dropping deeper and deeper which culminated with the Chelsea game where he was virtually non existent . I think Wenger playing him wide is just down to the lack of quality in midfield . Simple as that .

Until the middle of Dec we had lost only 1 PL game, the opener to Liverpool. We then lost 2 in a row to Everton & City. I think its fair to say the 2nd half has been our downfall.

Think we're reading too much into this. It's going to be a long summer, that's for sure.

Yup just sounds like a motivational quote to me , nothing to do with transfers.
His social media is basically one of those annoying women on Facebook who write cryptic statements trying to get a "what's wrong babe?" comment.
