Arsenal has not lost in 10 games, but I have not seen any of the football that has made Arsenal the team of most neutrals. The slick passing and movement game has gone and Arsenal look more like scrappers than artist. I know they have injuries and their main play maker is out for a while, but lets face it even the healthy big names have looked ordinary. I was really shocked that Wenger put VanPersie in the same sentence as Dennis B. Van Persie may have the ability to score more goals but to compare him to the maestro is far fetched. Now Wenger may be trying to get the best out of VanPersie, but please. Well see how the Russian fits in, but I can't see him solving the midfield problems, nor improving penetration in the wide positions.
we are just not scoring, the only creative players on the pitch was nasri, thats it the rest feed off others, vela brings a dual attacking role with creativity and atttacks, but he hardly gets on the pitch, wenger prefers bendtners size to vela, diaby comes in and has that vieira esque style but hasn't settled, all in all arsenal is a very unsettled side
as for the free flow you see it pop up during the games, we get critisized for not wining even if we play pretty, so at least we get critisized for not winning when we aren't playing pretty. name a consistent side that has played all season for arsneal? where is arsenals backbone and i dont mean strength i mean the spine of the team that its built around?
arsenal needs to put them boys on some weight training programs this summer, flamini and helb and rosicky and cesc had the midfield dialed in, now who's doing the dialing?
ideal midfield with all fit would be walcott, cesc, nasri, rosicky personally i feel ramsey is yet to show and i wish wilshire was older and stronger cus man he's got guts. we need an adaptable midifeld, with arshavin floating behind the front two and the thus giving midfilders/defenders problems because you have the speed of passing with type of players in your midfield and forwards
