The system we play rather than the defence itself, despite my broadsides against Holding he is no worse than any defender you’d get in a mid table premier league team but we play a way that involves holding a high line which means we win the ball back higher up the pitch but if you don’t have quick defenders it can leave you vulnerable.Originally Posted by Letters
The funny thing is we actually kept more clean sheets than City
We were in many ways fortunate that we had three non strikers get into double figures for us last season.
Mbappe for me is one of the worlds best striker currently, him and Haaland in the same team would be Shearer and Sutton on steroids.
We clearly need a central midfielder, but if Mbappe is available…he might be worth revising our summer transfer plans for
I see what you did thereHanson
If City sign him then we might as well all pack up and go home. Doubt they will though, they really don't need him.
Although we did score a lot of goals last year we don't have a "Haaland", there's zero chance we'd sign Mbappe but bloody hell, if we did then we'd have a serious chance next year.
The defensive issue was also a result of sticking rigidly to the inverted left-back system using a toilet-brush-haired little moron who can't defend as a notional LB
I'd like to think Mbappe would think of Arsenal as a fun team to play for with lots of exciting young players.
My main worry as always would be Arteta not being able to cope with a player of Mbappe's stature and so doing something dumb like playing him out of position to prove a point and then freezing him out for being 'difficult' when he complained

Mbappe will surely only go to Real Madrid.
If there was even the slightest chance we could sign him then I would absolutely suggest stopping everything to try and get him. The very idea of him signing for Arsenal is ludicrous though.
It didn’t help but a lot of the goals we conceded started with attacks coming down Ben White’s side of the pitch, or on occasion when Partey was sloppy in possession and Saliba was out of position.
Zinchenko as I’ve consistently stated understands the role of a left back about as well as a border collie understands the function of the Kennel club and whilst he was responsible for us giving away goals or getting rinsed on our left hand side, probably not as much as might think.
His wages are obviously ludicrous and we really couldn't afford him.
Having said that, if Josh wants to show that they're serious about this...

Oh I think the chances are slim to none, and given Mbappe has stated he’s staying with PSG it looks like Slim just left townMbappe will surely only go to Real Madrid.

But definitely a player would go all out for even with the remotest hint of a glimmer of a possibility
