Match Reaction v Spurs

[fakeyank]

No link there. Just a seemingly unending epistle from arseblogger. Would probably take me a day or two to complete reading.

Much thanks none-the-less.

I used to read his blogs religiously as well.. what a shame he has turned out to be a puppet of the board and Wenger!

Cesc and Jack are just different types of players. Cesc had some fantastic players around him but I’d say he learned a great deal at Barca on how to control a midfield with his passing. He just has better vision, positioning and passing skills. He’ll look for pockets of space in the midfield call for the ball and he already knows whose making run, whose open to receive the pass before he’s even touched the ball. He just thinks quicker and sees the more earlier. Plus he’s able to execute the perfect pass when he sees it. Jack just isn’t that sort of player. He’s not a deep laying midfielder and more of an attacking midfield player with his dribbling skills. He just needs to learn how to shoot.

But we really miss a player that has the ability to keep things ticking in the middle. I have no idea why Rosicky isn’t starting more games because he’s the sort of player that can do it. Arteta has been a huge disappointment because I would have thought he’d be the type I’m talking about. Before Cesc started adding goals to his game he was the young Xabi Alonso/Xavi/Pirlo. That’s what we really need at the moment. That anchor to keep the passes fluid and quick. We suffered the same problems last year and Rosicky made a huge difference later in the season. A huge reason why we were able to get the CL spot last year.

My concern for jack is who is left for him to learn from. he has prodigious talent, yes, but Wenger has shown that his coaching methods are as likely to send a player backwards as improve them, and I just don;t see anyone in our squad who can teach Jack what doesn't come naturally.

Wilshere is a naturally direct player.. I can see Vinegar coaching that out of him. He has made direct players into tippy tappy champs, so we know he will be learning new stuff. Is it good stuff though?

i have just watched gary neville's analysis on mnf

our defence is a fucking disgrace.

kamikaze defending at all times. absolutely no organisation, shape or understanding between any of them. monreal, who was supposed to be a quality player in spain before he came to us, has gone to utter shit within 3 games. it really comes as no surprise why most our players regress, its because they fall victim of the disease that engulfs out squad. when we dont address the issues the players that come in fall victim of the issues. a sweeping disease throughout the squad.

and the most laughable thing about this is that some people will still sit there and say a new manager wont improve us

get a grip.

[Cripps_orig]

Just watched all of that.

Neville I think we will all agree was an utter **** as player but as a pundit, he along with Shearer, Hansen and Keane are the best around.

Couple of things

Monreal is horrifically shit

And as I said through out the match thread, Theo made the runs but f all he can do if shitesters such as Cazorla and Jack can't find a simple pass which Parker who was once again awesome did for Lennons goal. Wenger for not going for him

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

yep

the more i watch the highlights the more i see we miss a cesc. someone to play that killer ball and stretch the opposition in the final third. our number one priority should be to get him back.

giroud and walcott are making the runs but noone is finding them. feeding off scraps, no wonder they looked like shit.

[Cripps_orig]

Hate to admit it but if we had a Cesc who had his head screwed on right then we'd be much better off. Jack and Cazorla aren't in the same level. Jack might get there. He's still young but Cazorla is 27? Unfortunately Cesc turned into one of the biggest ****s ever. Good riddance. We do need a player like him though. Sneijder would have been awesome

Seems a massive piece of his heart is still here; a must get back asap:

Come home Cesc....we were never mad at you in the 1st place so no forgiveness is necessary.





PS foad Pique, you utter turdbag.

[Cripps_orig]

Fuck him. He's a ****

[Özil's Panoramic View]

Fuck him being a ****. Hard to come up with a name in the modern game that has his vision and incisive passes. Plus he scores his fair bit.

Come home Cesc.
