Ok, Kyle?. Just for that, I'm going to watch Santos intensely tomorrow with a pen and notepad, and write down every bad move that he makes in the game, and then I'll post them here.

Fine, i'm just going on the stats, which you love to shove in our faces when it comes to Koscielny. It's the Pot calling the Kettle black Biatch.

That shouldn't be an issue, Kyle? believes that Santos is the best LB of all time.

No, i just defended him because you were being unneccessarily harsh. If there's a liability in our team at the moment it's Koscielny. It's like he's left his form in Poland and Ukraine.
 
Zlatan, I'll agree with you that watching Santos is a roller-coaster ride, but he tends to make a lot of his "mistakes" when there is plenty of cover, or manages to recover himself. I agree that he is not as athletic as I would like and he can get skinned occasionally, but don't you think he is perhaps just good at taking calculated risks?

Honestly I don't think he has been punished for all his "Mistakes" as much as Gibbs has been for his, even though Gibbs has probably made far fewer. I am just not sure it is coincidence.
 
Clichy is terrible positionally, and I think Mancini will realise it soon if he hasn't already. It's good for left-backs to go into the center of defense to help out, but Clichy does it all the time. He then fails to notice the opposition winger moving into the space he left until it's far too late.
 
Santos didnt start his time at Arsenal in the best way - he was unfit and off pace and got beaten a few times at the start of the season. After that however he was great, he offered alot going forward, was solid at the back (statistically our best defender before his injury) and gave an edge of style of confidence in his position.

He can tackle as well as any player we have at the club and i think it is great we have two good quality players fighting for the LB spot.

Santos is defo one of our most under-rated players!
 
Couldn't keep up with the rest of the defence to play an offside at a crucial moment. Grant Holt scores.
 
Hahahaha, how can you slate Santos after that performance?

He was our best player - easily.

Coinstantly won possession back, he was strong, good going forward. He was quality. Very impressed with him. Your a numpty to call him a liability and a fool for having a go ath im after that great performance.

If anyone was to blame for the goal it was mert for stepping up quicker than the rest of the line with Holt tucked in behind him.
 
Playing for offside always risks a player getting through on goal, and mert for me wasnt ready for it. Santos was a little further back than the others - but its ridiculous to blame him for our loss. He was our best player hands down.
 
Personally i dont think you can blame the team for the goal though - its the sort of goal that happens - a long range shot with the ball dropping unluckily.
 
He played Huntelaar onside yet again. The difference between him and Gibbs is that Gibbs moves with the defence and usually plays smarter. **** West Ham, **** England for injuring Theo, **** Norwich because Oxo gt injured
