Match Day Thread 2016/17 Premier League, Cups & Euro Watch

Forgot the backup keeper! We have Ospina who had the best save ratio in the French league when we signed him and had just had an impressive copa America. If you saw his performance against PSG you'd realise he is a very good quality backup keeper. And we also have Martinez who is a promising youth keeper as our third choice. Far better quality and depth than we have had at GK for many years.

Cech is still one of the best keepers in the league, easily. He'd walk into your team.

Best RB and LB in the league? Are you sure?

Koscielny would walk straight into your team, he's far superior to any of your CBs. Mustafi so far also looks to be of a very good level. Your off your head if you think Koscileny would only maybe make your bench, total nonsense.

And that squad which you think isn't good enough have finished comfortably above you in the league for the last few years and won more trophies. I love that you didn't even include Ozil in the players to keep totally clueless to say the least!

 

Ozil is crap. Far too inconsistent. If you hadn't sunk so much money into him he'd be dropped.

If you want to say your squad is exactly good enough to scrape top 4 most seasons and go on the odd domestic cup run then we are in agreement. The shame is that Wenger doesn't even pretend to want to do any more than that. He has had 20 years at one of the richest clubs in the world #noexcuses

Within a couple of years of narrowly avoiding administration we'd already gone closer to winning the league than you have for a decade. And in the same season we sacked our manager we also had a better European campaign than you've ever managed.

Karius was the 2nd best GK in Germany behind Neuer. Cech is a joke who probably wasted Wenger's chance to win the league last season and retire on a high.

 

So much nonsense in this post.

Ozil has the best assist to game ratio of any player in premier league history (or did at the end of last season, no idea if that has changed), set the record for assists in consecutive games for the premier league and was 1 assist short of the overall assist record for a premier league season. You just have to watch him play to realise how ridiculously good he is. Easily the most talented player at Arsenal (Sanchez drives the team in a different way but on natural football talent Ozil is better) and one of the best in the world.

Our squad has come 4th, 3rd, 2nd and won 2 FA Cups in the last three years, hardly just scraping 4th, typical media regurgitated rubbish. Either way that's comfortably better than what this Liverpool squad have managed.

Your bias is on an unparalleled ridiculous level.

 

In fairness to arsenal they have a very good team and added well imo this summer in the wnd.

However id would be quite embaressed to take any sustenance off a second placed finish last year and cech is past it.

I think arsenal have a very decent back 4 in front of him and xhaka should be good in front. Its just really how the rest are put together and really klopp would canter to a league title with sanchez and carzorla.

 

Di Matteo sacked by Villa after 1 win in 12.

 

seems fair but the club seems in rag order and league one may not be far off.

Who would take it on now?

 

Alladyce

 

Good point, big Fat Sam can take them up, provided they don't mind the baggage that comes with him..

 

Bit of a mess at the moment but if someone fancies it, they're a big club for that league and be a good project to get them back into Prem and establish themselves there

 

I've not seen the Liverpool pen soft lad, but I was sat 25 yards away from where the free kick was given at Goodison and it wasn't indirect

 

England squad to play Malta and Slovenia: Forster (Southampton), Hart (Torino), Heaton (Burnley); Bertrand (Southampton), Cahill (Chelsea), Jagielka (Everton), Johnson (Stoke), Rose (Tottenham), Smalling (Man Utd), Stones (Man City), Walker (Tottenham); Dier (Tottenham), Henderson (Liverpool) Oxlade-Chamberlain (Arsenal), Antonio (West Ham), Lingard (Man Utd), Sterling (Man City), Walcott (Arsenal), Alli (Tottenham), Rooney (Man Utd), Rashford (Man Utd), Sturridge (Liverpool), Vardy (Leicester).

 

I know it wasn't given as indirect, but that doesn't mean it shouldn't have been.

 

Stupid appointment in the first place. What's RDM ever done...

 

Tobes think ref didn't favour them by Giving them direct free kick which scored directly from, rather than indirect meaning they would have had to touch to someone else first

 

He was doing ok over in Germany beforehand I think?

 

Oh look @afcftw even Garth can see Spurs are the only team with a better defence than us FFS

 

You fishing lol.

Yeah I know the team took over esp terry and lamps.

 

Firminho has taken all of Ozil's stat's BTW

 

Swansea manager gone, Bob Bradley the yank in.
