    Key member of a team that’s won the league and CL. He’s not anywhere near as bad as people suggest, his reputation from his early days at Chelsea has stuck.

    Fuck Chelsea.

    String them along then pull the plug at the last minute just like they did with Ba and Loic Remy.

    My abiding memory of Luiz is that World Cup game.

    Well, that and the time he stepped on all those rakes.
    NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.

    Just from the way he plays which I explained in my last post. He's a reactive defender.

    If you stick Koscielny or Mustafi in an organised system they would look much better than they do now. Put Luiz in this Arsenal team and he'll get eaten alive.

    Fantastic news regarding Ozil and I honestly didn't expect it!

    Lets hope we can build on him extending and the signing of Auba by complimenting them with top class midfield and defensive signings in the summer.

    My question was kind of rhetorical....

    Fair enough though...I don't expect to convince you otherwise, but like Marc Overmars I think perception has been coloured with his earlier career mistakes.

    A little like with the non Arsenal neutrals who still think Monreal is useless.

    Luiz is a better defender than all the morons we have at arsenal. For all his faults he has actually been coached in defence by managers who know what they are doing, which means we can get at most 3 months of service out of him before the rot sets in. the other asset he has is that he is not a fkn weakling who gets muscled off the ball by the likes of Jordan Ayewa a la Mustafi and Kosc. Our last solid defender was probably Sol Campbell and that was more than a decade ago. I actually would play Luiz in midfield instead of the deplorable Xhaka, he has all Xhaka`s minimal attributes such as occasional shooting and is not a brain addled automaton.

    Our defensive issues actually have their root in our not fit for purpose midfield.
