Pre Season Thread

[Niall_Quinn]

I couldn't care less about their grubby money chasing either. But these are mostly the same players who will be stepping out to supposedly challenge for a title in a few weeks. And from what I can see, Wenger intends to do exactly what he's been doing before. Unless he has a plan up his sleeve he intended to reveal on the Friday we play Leicester, it's painfully, painfully obvious what he has in mind for the coming season and it's excruciating knowing in advance precisely how it will all work out.

But, of course, we've said this for countless seasons now. Why should this season be any different, in any way, no matter how minuscule?

I guess I'm still struggling to come to terms with the fact this useless fuck kept his job.

As I said, if I thought there was no chance that anything would be different then there would be no point watching. And I increasingly don't really, not just because of that. I guess we can only live in hope that Lacazette will make someone difference.
Not exactly relishing the prospect of the new season.

Should have been 3. We have fallen to pieces. 11 individuals out there with no team structure, no tactics, nothing. Just how Wenger likes it. He'll be pleased.

11 individuals and a **** of a Manager. How much did we pay for Laccashite?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Name calling for a new signing? Stop that shit.

What is wrong with you?

[Thierrymon]

I dont doubt that Laca is a great player but I am worried as to how he will fit in our slow play.

Chip on his shoulder.

It's early days. New signings have to settle in and players get back to fitness. But from what I heard, Lacazette had no service. I'm concerned about our midfield because it's the one area that looks like it's going to remain the same and I don't think we have the right balance with Xhaka, Ozil and Ramsey.

[Gooner23]

I agree.

Xhaka and Elneny always seemed the most balanced partnership but Wenger obviously doesn't rate Elneny.

I think he'll stick with Xhaka and Ramsey and that's really worrying as they leave us too open. Ramsey doesn't have the discipline and Xhaka isn't mobile enough to cover the space.

What do you mean? Did you watch the match v Chelsea?
I know it was a pre season friendly, However, the same dross and tactics were still there for all to see.
