Pierre-Emerick Emiliano François Aubameyang

[Marc Overmars]

Being pleased about something positive as an Arsenal fan.
Yeah, silly me. The Wenger thing was a joke. Obviously.
If you can't enjoy little victories then what's the point of any of this.
We all know we have bigger problems.

It's not about the little victories, we're all happy we've signed a decent player in Aubameyang.

Contributing precisely nothing to the forum other than a tounge in cheek Wenger comment and laughing at Zim, well that serves no purpose at all.

Wenger


Hope he dies.

Hopefully at 28, its too late for him to be Wengerized.

I liked what i saw from Mkhi yesterday, he seemed to pass and move a lot quicker than the other Arsenal players and hopefully his connection with Auba can speed our game up.

Yes, every player that joins shows signs of competency learned elsewhere. We'll soon slow Miki down and have him back to goal and passing sideways. He's not going to pick up our glorious style of play on the first outing. It will take him a little time to become robotised.

Totally disagree about Mustafi, I think he can be impetuous but he’s capable of absolutely brilliant performances

Getting rid of him is like chucking the baby out with the bath water, especially when we are never going to get consistently good performances from our defence whilst Wenger is manager

However we do need two defenders one to replace Mertesacker and another as long term replacement for koscielny.

Goalkeeper goes without saying, Cech is old and Ospina makes me nauseous when he plays

[Niall_Quinn]

Amazes me this deal why would he want to come to Arsenal he surely must have seen how poor we are and how we've got little hope of being in the CL and play rubbish football (though on the continent they probably still believe we play champagne football).

But then I guess he was desperate to leave Dortmund and is getting much more money and there were no other takers.

London and cash to burn? The inertia of the last remains of our legacy? We have dirt on him and threatened to go public?

[Cripps]

I think turning up to post "Wenger " and nothing else whenever something remotely positive happens is more worthy of a .

[AFC Leveller]

Im kinda excited about our potential attacking players, some real talent.

[Cripps]

We're gonna win games 9-8

The non-Arsenal fan host on post match AFTV (who is surprisingly passionate about Arsenal for some reason) commented Mustafi is fine at home where the opponents tend to play it cagey and don't put as much pressure on the defence. But, he pointed out, in away games Mustafi collapses as soon as the opposition put some heat on. He noticed how particularly useless he is in the air when under pressure, generally getting beaten the majority of the time.

I hadn't been specifically watching out for this but it rings true now that I think about it. But it's not just Mustafi, it's all of them. None of them can handle a pressurised box and, when you add our lunatic midfield to the mix, none of them handle a high press well. They are always looking to go backwards to safety at the first sign of danger. This breaks up the play terribly and causes us to repeat passage of play over and over to no purpose.

It's difficult to say how terrible or how decent our defenders are because the system they are playing in is insane and the midfield in front of them is twice as crazy.

Nothing can be judged until a competent coach gets to work with the team.

We have Wenger.
