The Arsenal [2014|2015]

[Pogba4Now]

Everyone always feels so sorry for Wenger when his players get injured as if it is nothing to do with him that they don't have adequate cover.

Everyone feels sorry for Wenger but no one ever feels sorry for van Gaal. He currently has 9 injuries and 5 of them are defenders.

 

[Mus]

I find it funny in both cases

 

[Mandieta6]

Arsenal, Barca and BVB always have an injury crisis and it is definitely an issue with physical conditioning and the strains of the tactics themselves.

 

[Jaboldinho]

Barca? The only injury crisis I remember was when our CBs were all out, and that was to blame for not having brought in new CBs, we were just too thin in that section.

 

[Xaviesta]

Özil's injury history:
Schalke: Out for 7 days in total
Bremen: 29 days
Real Madrid: 0 days
Arsenal: 133 (incl. latest injury)

 

[Mandieta6]

Don't Barca always have several people injured? I guess maybe it's less pronouced like with Bayern because they use a heavy press but actually run a lot less than the other two.

 

[Jaboldinho]

Not really.

 

[Bobby]

Arsenal = the Universal Remonster. You could poke him with a pillow and hurt him.

 

[Pogba4Now]

Welbz saved your sorry asses. The one you celebrated when news came that he wasn't going to join you. You guys have only been beaten once. Impressive.

 

[Bobby]

I was very, very pleased with the Welbeck signing.

 

[Pogba4Now]

Can Welbz and Giroud play together?

 

[Bobby]

Yeah, I think you could play Giroud, Welbeck, and Sanchez as a front three.

 

[Pogba4Now]

Welbz is terrible as a winger though. Even Ozil might be better there. Walcott or Ox would be more effective than Welbz on the wing.

No.

 

[Pogba4Now]

Welbeck is crap on the wings.

 

[kp41]

It's really time for Wenger to leave ...

 

[Sir Didier Drogba]

I say play try Welbeck and Giroud as a conventional forward pair

 

[Pogba4Now]

I agree but then where would Alexis and Ozil fit? You mean in a 4-4-2?

 

[Xaviesta]

Alexis was amazing, he made both goals, no way he would play on the wing in a 4-4-2. Never played there before.

This is the best imo:

Welbeck
Alexis/OX Ozil Alexis/Walcott
Ramsey Wilshere/Arteta/Flamini

 

[Pogba4Now]

you missed the point. we were talking about how to fit both welbz and giroud in the same team.
