I have always believed that Manu are what they are because of that great scot, Alex ferguson.I have never seen a manager as shrewd,arrogant,clever,ruthless summed up a GENIUS as him.It would be great if wenger were to learn some things from him.
If you'd have noticed Arsenal really struggle without Parlour.He's our unsung hero.It was only when parlour's suspension began that our midfield started appearing ordinary.In this run of 3 draws in 4 games we were really stretched in the games against leicester,bolton , blackburn and had it not been for fulham's defensive attitude even they could have taken the game to us. Wenger needs to start with parlour in such high intensity games.
I hope wenger realises this soon.
I think wenger plays 2 defensive midfielders as has No Trust in our defence.If we are to be more successful wenger should only play 1 defensive midfielder and 3 attacking players.
The reason i reckon gilberto gets so much abuse is because he plays as a holding midfielder only making average passes and winning some headers.As a midfielder he's expected to contribute significantly to our attacks and setup our strikers with through passes which he does not as he's not that kind of a player. We can't expect gilberto to play like scholes,keane,lampard or gerrard.
Gilberto is suited to play in a midfield with 3 or 4 attacking midfielders not in the midfield wenger employs at present.We can't blame him.Actually i think gilberto plays well to his potential.
Talking about Cygan, he's a good defender but very slow with poor marking skills.He's not the type of defender for EPL or EUROPE where the pace of the game is so fast.
Buying jeffers,gilberto,cygan,wiltord was wenger's BIG mistake and also a costly one.It would have been better had we persisted with Van Bronckhorst in midfield.Going by the current form wenger should start with Edu and parlour in midfield.
Secondly we really need to learn to defend against long balls.How can we expect our defenders to do it when we ourselves do not practice it.I don't know why wenger always wants us to score beautiful goals.We can do with goals like that at bolton.I mean the tap-ins,use of long aerial balls into the penalty box and crossing along the flanks.wenger needs to mix it up.
Like i somewhere read, just using 70 percent of the tools is always going to make you predictable.It is another reason for our struugle in europe so far.Also wenger needs to change his tactics and formations according to the need which he never does.
Please don't get me wrong guys for wenger has brought us at this top level and i acknowledge it but he needs to slightly bend his way of looking at things.
what do you reckon?
we were woeful against bolton and ur pathetic display was compounded by Cole's absence. It was again one of those days. Lets just forget it and look forward.
Cheers.
