I stand by what I said.Tottenham, Leicester and Aston Villa are crappy?

Arsenals main problems have always been mental demons when it comes to giving the ball away so cheekily. When you can’t make a pass yet want to play the entire game with passing sideways and backwards…it is just a matter of time before someone makes a stupid pass that leads to a goal against.
Lokonga has been our best midfielder and somehow gets benched. Partey is awesome but shouldn’t be playing based off his form. Nketiah is the biggest fake striker in the EPL…doesn’t want to sign anew contract…yet…gets on the pitch before Pepe. Then Auba misses a strike he should probably hit. This coach just does NOT get it.
For FFS indeed! I've noticed that as well.What strikes me is the leaving the passes to the last minute in the back like they think they're so far above everyone else that they can f***ing TOY WITH THEM? what makes them think they can play like this ffs

100% right on the money on everything...
Emery has underperformed every single league season since 2013, with every team. He is shit.This os what's wrong with them. They really are acting like Emery was not a good manager.

Unai Emery is one of the biggest underperformers around in every league season.Based on what?
He's good
Arteta should use him in a back 3 with Pepe and Saka as wingbacks, Smith Rowe, Lokonga and Partey in the mid, Auba and Laca up front
I rag on McFred in the midfield a lot, but boy am I glad we don't have Partey/Xhaka.
I would go 3-4-2-1. Something like:I like the idea of Arsenal playing a back 3 and I think they have the squad for it. However. I think they should go with a 3-4-3, as ESR is so much better on the wing than centrally.
Not sure you want Tomiyasu as a RCD either. He was under par there in Italy. Play White there and Gabriel in the center, it minimises White's lack of physicality and takes advantage of his ball playing skillsI would go 3-4-2-1. Something like:
aubameyang
ESR - Odegaard/Laca
Tavares/Tierney - Partey - Lokonga/AMN - Saka
Gabriel/Tierney - White - Tomiyasu
Ramsdale
Man, couple of losses and the knives are out.
Perhaps, although I would actually prefer the CB push up more and the LCD and RCD spread a bit wider, with the DCMs dropping in. It would look a little more like:Not sure you want Tomiyasu as a RCD either. He was under par there in Italy. Play White there and Gabriel in the center, it minimises White's lack of physicality and takes advantage of his ball playing skills
I don’t even know if it’s just him. A couple good results against mediocre sides doesn’t mean the turnaround was completeTo be fair, anyone who was pumping Partey was crazy to begin with. We went over this when he was signed and I wasn't the only one who said this. Another Arsenal fan among numerous other people also said it was a bad signing.
Saliba takes that spot at RCB next year unless Arsenal completely stupidNot sure you want Tomiyasu as a RCD either. He was under par there in Italy. Play White there and Gabriel in the center, it minimises White's lack of physicality and takes advantage of his ball playing skills
Be prepared.Saliba takes that spot at RCB next year unless Arsenal completely stupid
I am very prepared for Arsenal to wind up selling him to PSG because there is no evidence that Arsenal know what to do with him or even want to use him other than empty quotes.If he was in the air (say mid-stride), that line would kinda make sense but yeah.
Be prepared.
