If Wengy had balls he'd make Alexis the captain and tell everyone else they could deal with having a leader who actually wants to be competitive and win, or they can gtfo

But Arsenal are bad, this sucks, and I can see why anyone with any competitive spirit would be melting down. I'm gonna side with the player who actually cares and tries instead. It doesn't bother me that a player like Alexis got angry and hurt the precious feelings of absolute twats like Welbeck or Walcott or Monreal or whatever crybaby was upset that he actually wants to win things. They all got used to Wenger heaping constant praise on mediocre performances and making excuses for their most shameful displays it doesn't bother me one bit that someone in the dressing room cares enough to point out how absolutely terrible they've all been. It's not like Wenger's soft and gentle man management has been reaping rewards, his teams are constantly hounded for being weak and spineless and buckling under pressure so maybe they'll do better if someone calls them out on being awful. They could hardly do worse in the mental toughness department Ciprian Maricon fucked around with this message at 17:57 on Mar 6, 2017 |

I don't think Arsenal were ever going to give him the money needed to hang on to him in the first place, but it's definitely not happening now that they have spectacularly shat the bed once again.

Fortunately the FA are less visually challenged than ABU poopyheads like Bape Culture. "Furthermore, the FA has submitted a claim that the standard punishment that would otherwise apply for the misconduct committed by the Bournemouth defender is 'clearly insufficient'." Mings will get more than a 3 match ban for deliberately stamping on Zlatan's head.

can you remember Gibbs making a critical defensive error? yet he sits on the bench. Wenger has no idea how to build a team's spine. if he hadn't lucked into Petr Cech wanting to stay in London after he was replaced by Courtois, Arsenal would be a 7th place squad.

Dont know why its a surprise that wengy benched Alexis if he did what is said. He's done these things before when a player thinks he's bigger than the club or some poo poo.

Monreal hasn't had a good season this time around, but he's been consistently good over the past couple seasons. He's had a couple dodgy penalty calls against him (Vardy at the Emirates last season springs to mind) but those are more a product of bad luck than anything. Arsenal's problems run much deeper than him.

Monreal and Bellerin both are consistent liabilities defensively. They look great when Arsenal control the ball all match long and they can make runs and put crosses in and involve themselves in the attack but when it comes to actually defending, stopping or impeding the opposition attacks they are consistently dog poo poo.

Arsenal's problems run much deeper than him. He's any easy target, but if you are looking at defensive line problems, he is the weak spot. The real problem is that he's good but not exceptional. There are a number of Arsenal players that fit this bill. And good players can do a job in a team, in the right circumstances, with the right instructions. Unfortunately, 'go out and express yourself' doesn't work great when you play a team of world class players like Bayern. In conclusion, I think ultimately the reason Arsenal don't have at team of winners is because winners are expensive.

Ciprian Maricon posted:Monreal and Bellerin both are consistent liabilities defensively. I don't think this is so much their fault, though. They're expected to carry a lot of water going forward and get little help from the other wide players. And this is all compounded by the fact that Arsenal play a very wide game with a high line and little pressing. There's very little plan to actually stop the opposition from scoring. Generally I think arsenal's defensive problems aren't about the personnel.
