[Mark Tobias]

So what has been the excuse for the last 2 seasons?

To such a high standard as well!

Very good.

 

[Reverse Flash]

He got so tired of the backline undoing his work that he went and got a defender that he could trust. Its a pity that Germany don't have a good striker.

They are young atm but Brandt and Volland will come through.

You mean that back line that got the most clean sheets in the league last year and the best combined Squawka stats.

Doesn't sound like an Özil that wants to jump ship because the manager's so clueless.

...and the best combined Squawka stats.

 

[Makingtrax]

Yes because that person would have done so without 9 seasons of complete and utter failure of their own making

Of course I haven't gone through squawka, but stats can be misleading. The defenders can make one mistake which could cost us the game. Or they could make several mistakes in a match but would be compensated by goals scored. Statistically the first match was a better defensive performance, but practically it hurt us more than the second match which was a poorer defensive performance.

We came second last season and our defensive stats are:
Clean sheets 1st
Goals against 3rd
Games lost 3rd
The Squawka stats for Kos, Bellerin, Monreal and Cech were excellent.

It's a complete myth that our defence is clueless, but a commonly held opinion on here

No mate, not even a super hero like yourself. Just a humble janitor sweeping up bullshit

I love his face. Such a kind face.

I want my pic in the Arsenal kit, damn it!

For all the stats we still concede on the counter too many times for my liking. Hope Mustafi helps us keep a clean sheet against Chelsea/Mourinho cause those are the games that I'll remember.

That's surely my job here? Get your own ****ing broom.

None of them are really strikers though....both could become WC none the less

Mustafi must be very highly rated by Wenger if he's willing to make him his potential 2nd most expensive signing ever.

I have no idea what's he like but I'm looking forward to seeing him. Fingers crossed he and Kos can make a super partnership!

Özil like
"everything is great you have cool partners in defense and an experienced worldclass goalkeeper"

Mustafi
"What about the offensive Situation? We good here? Worldclass center forwards? "


[....]
"Yeah.... We.... Have a striker.... ".

This signing makes so much sense. Per is done, Gab is not a starter, but will be adequate cover, Kos is terrific, but is getting older, and Holding looks like a player who will grow to be a great one. Mustafi and Holding for the future as/if Kos declines with Bielik and Gab filling in. Don't see a future for Chambers here though, unless his loan is productive. Mustafi looks awesome. Spine player we absolutely must have.
