PL - Round 15

[maclean]

Ramsey I thought Xhaka already went off...

 

[hatterson]

Games like that are why I think it’s clear De Gea is the best shot stopper in the world.

I still rate Neuer higher overall, but if you want someone to simply stop shots, you can’t get better than DDG

Ramsey I thought Xhaka already went off...

Ramsey - Xhaka midfield set this year to start the season off...I already knew where we would finish.
thats a midfield that concedes defeat.....no ambition.

 

[hatterson]

Also, that was perhaps the least dominating 3-1 in the history of the sport.

 

[Theon]

Come on David Moyes.

Ramsey has been great this year. Xhaka drags down the team.

Yep. Consistently takes points away from other teams. Very often takes a miracle to beat him.

I wouldn't say great, but he's had some reall good games yes, I must admit.
but overall?...he's just not someone I have much faith in....at least not for a club that aims to be ambitious.

 

[phisherman]

No. Not really. Performances in big matches are dead similar. Wouldn't want either one on my team.

Let's ignore the Chelsea and Tottenham game and just use this one to compare him to the garbage that is Lovren.

Not just that but your first comment was at Curtinho's level.

 

[The Abusement Park]

DDG tied the record for most saves in a BPL game today. What a legend.

 

[booyakasha]

why wenger still trots that midfield out while Wilshere sits on the bench is baffling.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Real Madrid to put in a 100M bid for De Gea in the summer?

Lovren has great performances too, we just never talk about them because there's no reason to. There is no consistency with either player.

I'm not big on liking players who have five or ten good or great games and then play shit and are the whole reason their team loses.

 

[Pavel Buchnevich]

Koscielny>Lovren AINEC. And I'm no Gunners fan.

 

[Cassano]

I think Koscielny = Lovren is the biggest hot-take on this board since Henderson the best B2B in the world a few years back.

I think Giroud > Icardi is pretty high on that list.

 

[S E P H]

I'm actually not disappointed, if it wasn't for de Gea Arsenal win this game extremely comfortably, 5-2.

I do want to give a huge **** you to the defencive line and Xhaka in this game.

 

[Cassano]

I think Giroud > Icardi is pretty high on that list.

That's nuts.

 

[S E P H]

That 3rd goal was just dreadful as you had three people on Pogba, still gets around them and Xhaka having his head up his as miss marks the open man.

I think Giroud > Icardi is pretty high on that list.

Icardi has had some character issues in the past; nobody doubted his talent, but when you have mental issues, those are far more damaging to becoming a star compared to other weaknesses.

With all that said, that was definitely a hot take. Him and Giroud are not even in the same realm for me.

 

[Evilo]

That's nuts.

That was in the same discussion as another amazing statement :
"Giroud, Berardi, Ayew, Strootman, Amavi, Passlack and Areola craps all over your bench"
That bench consisting of Lemar, Bernado Silva, Fabinho, Jemerson, Fekir, Glik, etc...
Also by the same poster : "Krychowiak is the second best DM in the game" (behind only Busquets, while a better aerial threat than Busquets).

Koscielny = Lovren is completely accurate. Too bad that some of you can't tell when your own players suck. There's been plenty of great defensive performances with both guys this season and now the same amount of bad ones.

Both teams have conceded the same amount of goals with both guys playing the same aggressive role. Lovren also didn't play in Liverpool's worst loss of the season while Koscielny had a classic Lovren performance right in the middle of Arsenal's worst loss.

 

[Halladay]

Ive come to the conclusion Liverpool scores too many goals not to finish 4th.

 

[phisherman]

Yea as if it's only Arsenal fans that are saying this is ridiculous.

I've been the biggest Koscielny critic, even when most of this board deemed he was WC, but he's not in Lovren territory.

Lovren's had plenty of good performances too. I am also the biggest Lovren critic, I don't care at all about his good performances. That's why like today, Chelsea, United game, Arsenal, etc, he is never mentioned.

They both aren't good enough to play for the teams they play on, they'll both have great games, they'll have the same amount of bad games.
