Pizy 18,903 Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 If Eriksen leaves Spuds in this European window I think Arse are strong favorites for 3rd spot. They're still not near City or Liverpool's level but have so many weapons that they'll be up there. Just puts even more pressure on our board next summer to invest heavily. Two clubs have already blown past us. We can't allow fucking Arsenal of all clubs shoot past us out of sight as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vesper 30,171 Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 we are deluding ourselves if we think this is not a much improved Arse I am afraid they still have multiple players who did not play today too those two strikers a bitch to deal with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,903 Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 The better tests for Arse's improvement is how they deal with teams that have equal quality. Teams that won't stand off them and allow them to play their game. They've always bullied the minnows and been battered by the big boys. Thing is, Emery has shown the flexibility to play different ways so they can play without the ball and use the crazy pace of Auba and Pepe on the break with Ceballos and Luiz pinging it around. Hard to see a big weakness in their side when everyone is fit. Their defense isn't fantastic or anything but should be far better with Luiz and Tierny. And without Mustafi. kellzfresh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see the rest much of a threat to our top 4 place unfortunately we had transfer ban during the summer...but the rest depends on who takes his chances over the period of the season... It's a long season and people tends to give preference to certain clubs....I don't do that especially to Arsenal and Spurs who are proficient in bottle job... Unfortunately if we start taking our chances and improve our defensive structure not just defense...thanks Rudiger is getting a little bit closer to fitness... I really love what am seeing about our team and not even counting us as candidates of top 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have two huge concerns when it comes to us that Zouma keeps playing well and then the biggest, our strikers super early but one of the 3 really needs to step up I am not going to shit all over Tammy, but he is off to a nightmare start I so hope he can put it all behind him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was xpecting Sarri the moment he came on board last season to go for Rogmanoli or any other quality ball playing defender capable of his defensive duties but alas I was dissapointed...rather we were stuck with Luiz...thanks both are out the exit door... Really love what Lampard is doing with the squad despite some obvious flaws in some positions ala Centre back but I will give Zouma till the middle of October before my final assessment despite his uncomfortable ball playing abilities but he can compensate for that by been very smart and intelligent enough to know his weakness and do his defensive job really well... Abraham though not really sold on him too but will give him till Oct as well though I believe when our ban is lifted he or Batshuayi can be our second striker cos we gonna go really big on signing striker...

I always list Romagnoli as an option for CB, because he is a superb player, but we have chased him for 4 years, and he clearly does not want to leave AC Milan, so that is a huge issue Alabama 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
