FOOTBALL TALKS: WHERE HAS IT GONE WRONG FOR THE GUNNERS?
I want to use this medium to greet all great Hivers. How has been your day so far, hope you are all doing good? I'm positive minded that it's all well and fine.
Arsenal football club latest cameo was the just concluded match between Fulham vs Arsenal fc. When the season started, Arsenal football club showed a gleam of a club that is going to win the English premier league this season. But recently, things took a twist with their last 5 games with one win, two draws and two loses. Arsenal football club bottled the league last season towards the tale end of the season after cameo Elephant lonely at the top.
Arsenal football club last 2 loses where they dominated in possession but couldn't kill the game when it's necessary. A show of shame displayed at the Emirates stadium against West ham, a London rival has shown there are lot of things to be done in the team. So what are the things;
Some players need rest; There are key Important players in the arsenal fc team that need to be tested for a while to shake off fatigue or limit their game time for a while. The likes of Saka and Odegaard are two Important players in that team that need to be rested or have reduced game time to triggered moral again from fatigue.
Tactical use of Oleksandr Zinchenko: Though he's injured right now but the way the Guy is being used before his injury exposed too much holes in the team. Typically, he's a left back, but during he usually drops deep into the midfield which exposed both his position and overwork Gabriel. Most of the goals arsenal fc conceded in the past few games were from his position because most he was caught off guard. The defeats from West ham and Fulham said it all.
Is Raya anything better than Ramsdale: I keep asking myself why Ramsdale was benched for Raya. Is Raya anything better than Ramsdale? Only Mikel Arteta is fit to answer that sour question.
Then lastly, Arsenal fc seriously need a goal poacher rather than a striker who is a workaholic that is find in Gabriel Jesus. This is a striker who likes having so many touches which usually deny him of positioning himself to score goals compare to Erling Halaand who normally has minimal touches in a game but good at positioning to score goals. I guess Arsenal fc literally need one.
Hello bro,Happy New year.
Hmmn we seem to be thinking alike with my WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE GUNNERSblog.
Your first point here was my major point . I think it is an underrated factor in this recent poor form. A little cut-out:
"The answer is simple: USE YOUR SQUAD– meaning–
a) Surprise the opposition.
b) Keep players fresh.
For example, Rice has been doing well as a DM, you can surprise the opposition by starting Elneny as a DM for that West Ham game and Rice further forward– the Xhaka role. You can start a Kiwior for Gabriel at times(Kiwior is also a good DM)..."
Cheers man.
You got it Bro. Too many familiar faces for longer period of time. Mikel Arteta doesn't know how to rotate his team, the same thing happened last season.
You see it too right? You will notice what I said about Ancelloti in that blog.
Glad you noticed this happened last season. Infact Arteta was even worse in this regard initially. Even if you buy the best striker, you need to take care of his match sharpness.
You see that Brighton man, with all the injuries they have, you would see him bench Mitoma in the EPL after the European game, mid-week. That need the victory so much in the EPL and they have a large injury list yet Mitoma or another star player will be benched and brought in second half. This is the modern trend.
Is like when you talk about team management, Arteta doesn't seems to have it. He overuses players to the extent that they lose their legs. He needs to improve on that.
Exactly 💯
