You might be right about differences. But it still looked very chaotic to me. The manager is not the problem, it's the players and that they're not good enough for a club like Arsenal.


BS statement imo.

Bellerin had a terrific rise to the team, and it's dumb to give up on him so easly
Sokratis just joined so he needs to step in
Mustafi I agree isn't up to standard, however with Toreirra as a dm he can play.
AMN is one of our brightest talents, Monreal plays when fit and is excellent and Lichtensteiner is a perfect back up

Bellerin has been poor for like 18 months now though. How long was he good for, 9 months - 1 year? Probably better to cash out for 40m (if you can still get it that is) and buy a solid RB

Disagree, he isn't just a normal talented player like Flanagan for example. He has massive potential and we should at least give him time under a new coach to develop. I do think we need to get rid of Jenkinson, Campbell and some youngsters asap.

They said the same thing about Wilshere and Walcott, we're still waiting...

This Arsenal team is worryingly under-talented and the defense is shambolic, I would be very concerned if I was an Arsenal fan. You only conceded 5 less goals than West Brom last season.

Enjoy another few years of Thursday football. With that defense and some repeated lacklustre displays from key players, I can see some embarrassing losses coming your way this season.

You're missing the point. We are not fighting for the title this season.

And if you pay closer attention you can see the difference, but I dont fault you since you don't watch every Arsenal game ofc.

The pressing is different, the passing is different (goalkeeper forced to pass short to the defence, work in progress)

I as an Arsenal fan can already see a difference, lot's of work still but there is a change happening.

Classic Arsenal :rofl: Because we haven't heard that now for the past 10+ years...

Changes in football happen quickly, it takes big and bold moves in today's game. There has been no catalyst at Arsenal, no Salah type revolution to build around. You have been sigingin 5th or 6th place quality players and it's showing.

Nothing has changed and I doubt it will for a while. I predict another 6th place finish.

Watching some Emery interviews from the last few weeks in comparison to his first one where he barely spoke English is very impressive. He must have been doing 3+ hours daily on English alone
