    STFU Herb!

    When have we set ourselves up to play counter attacking football this season? If Wenger is telling Coquelin to play higher up the pitch, has been reluctant to play Xhaka and said he'd prefer him to play box to box and not deep...what does that tell you? This isn't just a Coquelin Cazorla problem. It wasn't last season and never was when we've decided to sit deep and play on the counter. If we've only ever lost 5 games with that duo and in the last 38 games won 89 points, something has changed. Bear in mind, in our last game, Hull hardly put pressure on us, we had plenty of space, Ozil had over 100 touches on the ball, completed 104/110 passes and 62/68 of those were in the final third. But only created two chances! Something else is going wrong here.

    The debate is boring to you. Cool. Get back to cracking gay jokes or something. Quit replying to my posts in that case. It's very simple. I was talking MO originally.

    That's bizarre because i could swear Coquelin played against Liverpool and that they had ridiculous amount of space to run at our back line.

    Look at the amount of chances created by Southampton, look at the ease at which PSG created space

    Have a look at the original post chief, you replied to my original point about Coqzorla which wasn't directed at anyone

    The debate i find boring is the constant droning on about Ozil, the point i am making is you don't rate him therefore whatever game we play he's going to be the problem for you.

    If you win the ball back deep and then attack with pace, that is a counter attack whether you've set yourself up to play that way or not. If we win back possession and Ozil receives the ball in a timely fashion than i'm saying he isn't a problem (but then considering his ability to pick out a pass even with restricted space i don't see him as a problem to begin with).

    You chose to reply to me, so don't start acting like a little girl if i critique your argument.

    This one is a write-off for me, they'll kill us on the counter, think it will be 3-1 Chelsea and we'll get torn apart by Costa and Hazard.

    Whether you want to pin that all on him or Cazorla is your call I guess. Perception is a funny thing.

    Cazorla was playing far more advanced than Coquelin against Liverpool

    I don't completely absolve Cazorla from blame, did not play at all well against PSG for instance. But personally i think he shouldn't be playing every game for us if we are playing more than once a week.
