Lacazette, Auba, Ozil, Pepe.
Teams would die to have that sort of quality, but they can't do anything here.
You see that 4-2-3-1 everyone has been screaming for us to use. well we where using it just there when we went 2-0 down and we didn't do jack shit!

In a 4-2-3-1 How the hell are we going to create chances either in possession or even on the counter with:
- Auba out wide who is poor technically out wide and can't dribble round players without just knocking it past them into space?
- Pepe who isn't good enough in open play consistently?
- Ozil who is slow on the ball and can only pass?
and don't even get me started on the lack of protection they will give the defence. The lack of awareness of our players abilities again.
Sorry what you said is not going to work vs Leicester who actually the personnel to play a balanced 4-2-3-1. We are that shit we can't. You just need to get real.
If we started with it we would of lost 5-0 instead of just 2-0. The defensive shape at least held out for 55 minutes then Ozil just died, the shape totally died up top and our average defenders eventually caved in.
We are a club which is now not even contenders for top 6!
One of our best performances came last season against Leicester where we played a 4-2-3-1 with Ozil playing. We have haven't player them again using that formation.

That was a good move actually. Bellerin was dragged inside by Barnes who's backheel was quality actually and combined for that excellent run and 1-2 with Tielemans. Once of the best goals his season that was!
Our forwards had stopped pressing and where so ineffective in attack that goal was inevitable since we where so disjointed in attack with the ball coming back at us so much.Power n Glory wrote:elkanofan wrote:DiamondGooner wrote:I literally don't understand how our offense is so sh*t, can barely get a shot off.

Because we don't have technically accomplished players like Iwobi and Miki available to play on the flanks to hold the ball, keep possession, pressure high and play attacking football on the front foot

No wonder we lost.
Its a purpose built formation that they believe in.

Every game he plays is littered with similar incidents of Bellerin being hopelessly out of position. He has no clue at all about defending and has been a liability since his first game.
