    I hadn't even considered half of these options! To be honest I've been buzzing since last night, exciting times!

    Great, so all our fans have become unbearable wums just because we sign 1 top player. Bloody hell.

    Arsenal defence statistically was better than Machester United and Chelsea, over the whole of last year, not just at the end. By a fluke, we didn't look better than them

    Cazorla hasn't been playing CAM much lately, he has been on the left. He's better in the middle

    Ozil can also play wide right. He's most effective through the middle

    Walcott playing through the middle with Ozil behind him looks a good option too; no wonder Theo is buzzing. Theo's as abysmal striker, but a good wing forward.

    Is Podolski dead? Ok he is out for a couple of months, but he will be back before Christmas. He's out for another 9 weeks, that's a long time.

    Ozil Makes everyone better, even Giroud, how much better does he need to get? Giroud needs to get a lot better. After he scores, he just disappears in matches.

    Flamini can play full back as well as CDM, but even so Jenks played brilliantly against the spuds. No he didn;t it's just Spurs were ****e.

    Apologies for being the voice of reason here.

    Also with the signing of Ozil, if you do well this season he will make Arsenal more appealing to other top footballers in the next transfer windows.

    You miserable bastard.

    Flamini played well against Spurs. If he hadn't, we would have noticed, considering the pressure we were under in the second half, any mistake would have resulted in very noticeable consequences. He showed passion and commitment.

    Theo proved himself last season as a very good finisher. How many of the 20 goals he scored last season did you witness?

    Cazorla has been hailed by both posters on this site, as well as professional pundits, as MOTM when playing on the wing so it doesn't seem to hold him back too much even if he is 'better in the middle.'

    Also, you don't concede less goals than the rest of the league bar one team by a 'fluke' you muppet.

    I have been very critical of our transfer policy in recent times but credit where credit's due, I think we have an exciting future.

    Get behind the team instead of nitpicking!!!!!!

    Arsenals defensive record at home last year was 11th best in the division.

    I think you'll find we had the second best defensive record in the division.Did you not realise that you play both home and away ?

    Of course I do and at home arsenal had the 11th best defensive record. Does it not make you wonder why this was the case at home but not away?

    Because away from home, we shut up shop and tried the old "1-0 to the Arsenal" tactic.

    You miserable bastard. That's not true, i'm just being a realist

    Flamini played well against Spurs. If he hadn't, we would have noticed, considering the pressure we were under in the second half, any mistake would have resulted in very noticeable consequences. He showed passion and commitment. Did i criticise Flamini? No. I like his passion and commitment.

    Theo proved himself last season as a very good finisher. How many of the 20 goals he scored last season did you witness? I watched every match last season, Theo through the middle isn't as effective as Theo the wing-forward

    Cazorla has been hailed by both posters on this site, as well as professional pundits, as MOTM when playing on the wing so it doesn't seem to hold him back too much even if he is 'better in the middle.' If he's on the wing, he can't create as much, and his workrate isn't as good as Poldi, because Gibbs can't defend, we need a LW who works hard

    Also, you don't concede less goals than the rest of the league bar one team by a 'fluke' you muppet. Yes you can, if penalty decisions go in your favour, if you save your abysmal performances for cup matches etc.

    I have been very critical of our transfer policy in recent times but credit where credit's due, I think we have an exciting future. Shame all our players will be injured by January, so there's no exciting future, especially with Wenger blowing the whole damn budget on the wrong position

    Get behind the team instead of nitpicking!!!!!! I'm supporting the team by critically evaluating where we've ****ed up this time. I don't wear blinkers.

    Just think if Arsenal played this way home and away they might challenge for the league.

    If only it were that simple. We would have 20 league titles.

    Mesut Ozil has laid on 47 assists in La Liga since joining Real Madrid. No-one has more in that time (level with Messi). Creator.

    Because we scored the most goals at home in the league last year, and just overdid it a bit?

    No you are a miserable **** who has been shown up time and time again as knowing **** all about football.

    Don't feel bad, I'm just critically evaluating your contribution to the debate, not insulting you. If you think I'm insulting you, then you will realize why I don't think you are critically evaluating anything!

    <doh> Yay, everyone's favourite ****** has arrived.

    And that's not an insult either, it's a critical evaluation of your complete lack of intelligence

    We didn't keep a single clean sheet against any of the big opposition (Man U, Man City, Chelsea or Tottenham).

    Being good enough to beat the small fry in the league isn't good enough to win us anything. When we face any quality, the defence leaks.
