As i've pointed out that midfield three hasn't actually played together......arteta and wilshere have always had to accomodate ramsey which means that cazorla has been played wide left or right.Quote:

not true. wilshere was deeper next to arteta a lot of the time. only on a handful of occasions has caz been pushed out wide. as marc says above, lukas was a regular starter on the left, as was gervinho when he scored a few before the striker experiment.Quote:

And you noticed how things went down hill as soon as diaby got injured against chelsea and you know who came back into the side.Quote:

Seconded. Credit to him for persevering.Quote:

don't get me wrong compared to arsenal sides of the past we are comparatively average, but frankly anyone who thinks Ramsey should be starting games should be accompanied to the emirates stadium by a guide dog. He is I reaffirm the worst midfielder who has put on an Arsenal shirt in the premier league era and the idea that this walking travesty is given player of the month ignoring the heroic efforts of Laurent Koscielny who single handedly has been bailing us out makes me wonder what kind of people are supporting this club.
The reason Cazorla and Wilshere can't play together is a seperate issue....it doesn't help that Wenger tries to play Wilshere far too deep because we don't have a proper defensive midfielder just a welsh retard. I think had we decided to buy someone who could marshall the midfield properly like a Diame whose price-tag was literally begging us to sign him instead we start with someone who should be playing for a football team sponsored by Scope
Pretty much. Lets remember how much we have improved defensively with Ramsey in his proper DM position. We have been average going forwards lately but that's not Ramsey's fault. Its more that other than finishing Walcott on the right offers us nothing; because Rosicky's more dynamic than Carzola centrally, Carzola's less effective on the left, and we have either not had a striker or not played to Giroud's strengths.Quote:
