The commentry team are actually right for once. Without a midfield runner (Ramsey/Wilshere) we are struggling to break through the defence. Why Not just take a few shots from 20/25 yrds?? We are constantly getting in positions from which to shoot. Podolski in particular should just have a few cracks.
In these games what we don't do well is take more chances from the distance, no matter if it's the perfect opportunity. This also would be the perfect game to bring on Gervinho (ha, yes I'm that guy) or Arshavin if we had him, but we have no such options. The ensuing panic in their defense from a long shot or a Gervinho type player's run would create a chance no matter if the opportunity was perfect. We tend to go for the safe pass in these situations, which is OK if we eventually get a good chance. Sometimes it just results in us passing the ball in a half-circle around their goal area.
come on , we are at home to a team that has played 24 and got 24 points , a GD of of minus 16 , created NOTHING but we NOT losing yet . Course we are "doing well " I wonder what some peoples definition of " doing well " actually is .
It was a well-read pass by Cazorla, but the replays show just how much Chamberlain had to do with it. Excellent ball control.
Lovely move from oxo and lovely vision and pass from Cazorla. Nothing much the Arriva bus could do with that. Nice stuff.
Really these threads are so predictable and utterly pointless. Arsenal87 must just cut and paste his comments every week. He seems to come on here to make sure that no one gets any enjoyment out of supporting Arsenal. I find almost everything he writes deeply offensive, every post just seems to be trolling. I don't understand how someone can come on here every singly week and insult the team, and just because he uses the term "we" instead of "you" he gets away with it. If a Spurs supporter came on here and posted "You are playing badly..." every single game, they would be banned by now.
I've mentioned it plenty of times, but he seems very impatient off the ball, which is why he very rarely tends to get in the goalscoring positions. If he doesn't touch the ball for the while he drops deep for the ball. The problem with that is that he's no Rooney.
