Too predictable and you'd have no CF.


Need a winger to run in behind when Sanchez is up top, hence wele and Walcott have to play.


no point having runners if the other team is camped in their own half. walcott is absolutely awful in this system as you need to be technically sound to be the advanced forwards

Depends who you're playing, Walcott could be our cheap knock off of Pedro.

Vs spurs I'd have liked wele-Alexis-theo and push the f***ers right back or kill em on the counter

pedro isnt actually that rapid tho and his strengths in his technical ability which let face it, theo doesnt have (pedro is also v two footed)

vs spurs it shoulda been ozil alexis welbz but i think at home against lower league oppo that ozil alexis iwobi would cause damage and unlock defences with ease

iwobi was actually second in our most passes in the box behind ozil about half way through the season, hes class for final third play

Holding has a bright future, but on what team that is the question.
He is calm and he understands football, that makes him solid and even better when he gets more games
Please stay with us, please and dont listen Wenger or Bould or anybody else.They know shit on football today

Yep he played a blinder, let's hope he doesn't go out on loan next season.

We've seen so many young defenders over the years fluff their lines. But not this kid. He's been immense since we started playing him. May not be ready for a back two as yet but this formation does wonders for him.

He doesn't need a loan. He's performed in a no margin for error run in and like a beast against Chelsea in an FA cup final. We probably have one of the best young English centre halves in the world.

He is already good enough for our first team which says about his level at such an young age, sending him on loan would crush his confidence,

Yep.

Holding - Mustafi/Per Man - Koscielny is a given for next season. And, 3-5-2 is the way forward.
