Don’t get
me wrong Cazorla is a major signing for Arsenal and Arsene Wenger. It sends out
the message that Arsenal and Wenger mean business this season. And this is for
two reasons.
Firstly, the
total transfer outlay so far is about 40m, and still counting. This is far more than any other season in the last seven barren years.
Secondly
all the transfers involve players who are far more mature both in terms of age
and experience in difficult competitive leagues. Podolski is 27 and a Germany international, Giroud is 25 and a France international and Cazorla 27 and a Spain
international.
They are
all quality players and worthy of first team selection. And they are all added
to a squad who as yet has not lost anyone of note. If RVP does eventually leave
this summer then the three new comers do add up to a net addition to an already
strong squad.
Consider
the squad as it stands now:
Goalkeepers:
Szczęsny, Fabianski, Mannone
Right
Backs: Sagna, Jenkinson, , Koscienly (if needed), Coquelin, Yennaris
Left Backs:
Gibbs, Santos, (we
are rather short of cover here if both get injured)
Central
Defenders: Vermaelen, Koscienly, Mertesacker, Djourou
Central Midfilders: Song, Diaby, Arteta, Rosicky, Ramsey,
Coquelin, Frimpong, Wilshere,
Wide
Midfielders: Walcott, Gervinho, Podolski, Arshavin, The Ox, Cazorla
Strikers:
RVP (if he stays), Giroud, Chamakh, Bendtner (if he stays)
It
seems that if RVP leaves the strikers position would prove to be an area where
we may me short. Chamakh is not up to it and Bendtner wants out which leaves us
with only Giroud.
Nevertheless
the squad is far far stronger than in recent years.
And I
boldly can predict that IF RVP has a
rethink and stays then we can lift the title this coming season…..
So you have Kos as cover at right back who has hardly played at that position compared to Vermealen at left back who actually played for weeks in that position?
ReplyDeleteInteresting!
Walcott has been promoted to striker.
Ramsey is on his way to Fulham and Carzola will play the rosicky/cesc position.
Wenger dont beg rvp if he want 2 go no problem we hv more dan enough players
DeleteRamsey to fulham. ur a knob
DeleteI agree Ramsey just getting bk t 4m needs t stay. Wenga needs t get rid of dead wood by any means E can. Wenga knows we av t b supa copetitive and soi far e's doing a good JOB!
DeleteArsene wenger is doin a good job,really he means business dis term.carzola santi,nuri sahin u all are welcome to de club dat changes football.up gunnerz
Deletewenger should keep Bendtner he is better then charmch
ReplyDeleteyeah dat true
ReplyDeleteyea but bendtner won't want to be 3rd striker, he still thinks for some reason that he's the best striker in the world.
ReplyDeleteWe spent over £50 million last summer.
ReplyDeleteWould've though a site called Arsenal Analysis could do basic maths
£50m on players in last term. wat of players out? we lost key playeers last term. go 4 glory guns!
ReplyDeleteHe's a bit raw I know, but Miquel can also fill in at LB, at a push; so we have two and two 'halves' - hopefully enough!
ReplyDeleteSeems this guy knows nothing about Koscienly and his ability. He played the right back for more than a month last season. Though, he messed up with some late runs and tackle which I considered normal with player out of position. Kos is the most committed and the most improved in that squad.honestly speaking I will prefer mauricio isla for the right back. Plays like daniel alves.
ReplyDeleteLets pray 4 wilshere an stop talking about Ramsey
ReplyDeleteRamsey was better than wilshere before injury. Have you seen him in the Olympics? He got his mojo back. Do you honestly think wilshere is going to be back to where he was pre injury, in a game or two? Probably take a season. Get behind Ramsey, cos he's back on track.
DeleteWe did not spent £50m, Arteta was £10, metersacker was £8m, Gervinoh £11, Park £1m and Santos £6m which cost £36m, mind you thaey have blend together now plus the new signing we only pray for injury free and the season shall be a fruitful one.
ReplyDeleteAnd chambo for 12million, you knob.!
DeleteAnd The Ox was for free or what ? ..also there is Bartley m
ReplyDeleteissing at center back position..
You forgotten the 12 mill we paid for the ox!
ReplyDeleteThe big problem is the centre half and left back position.
ReplyDeleteMertesacker is too slow. Djourou like a puff of wind.
Santos is not a left back but is a winger.
Wenger should buy Hummels the young German centre half and move vermalan to left back.
Now you have a proper defence.
I love dis
ReplyDeletetanks 4 arsene wenger 4 bringing new attackin midfider 2 d squad bt i need more 4rm mr wenger
ReplyDeletesantos is a left back wenger only wants to convert him to winger
ReplyDeleteU missed podolski up front, big signing!!
ReplyDeleteGood signing by arsene, waiting to see a combination of van persie,carzola, podoski and walcott upfront
ReplyDeleteGo go go go go go go Gunner! It's now our turn.
ReplyDeletewe r probably gonna have nuri sahin on loan,dat makes it a very ströng mid-field,COYG!!
ReplyDeleteNice move prof.wenger we need more from d defence n d left back.....with D̶̲̥̅̊ɑ̤̥̈̊†̥̥ we can Ϟo̶̲̥̅ώ possed of challenging for any tittle.... Fight to finish guys....... Thumb up
ReplyDeleteThis team will murder teams in the EPL if RVP eventually stays.
ReplyDeleteWe are good to go....!
We seriously need RVP. With cazola and sahin I tink wenger now listen to kenown.don't want to see diaby near d pitch @ all
ReplyDeleteArsenal spent £50m last season - that didn't work. Do some research before talking crap.
ReplyDeleteVermaelen cover for left back, Bartley before Djourou centre back.
ReplyDeleteGood
If Arsenal/Arsene want to make a statement of intent,let RVP run down his contract. Cup tie him for the cl and let him leave next summer for free. After all he cost only 2.5 million gbp.Of course the bigger piture is as the gunners are a business concern, it doesn't make sense to let him go for nothing.
ReplyDeleteYou can't have the cake both ways.From the football perspective it makes sense to et him go for free next summer unless the clubs meet the minimum price.
agree that we could do with another left back, esp. as Santos may be moved up the pitch.
ReplyDeleteregarding your 'gap' if RvP leaves, I think you have overlooked that Podolski can play centre forward as well as wide AM.
Bendtner and Chamakh should both really be moved on, although salaries are an issue for clubs that may be interested. M'Baye Niang can be third choice behind Giroud and Podolski, with Joel Campbell and Benik Afobe on loan for this season.
i pray rvp should stay. Then arsenal can challenge for a trophy next season. Up gunners
ReplyDeletethis squard is becoming strong now with the capture of podolski, giroud, carzola and on loan madrid midfielder nuri sahin. Arsenal are in business for a tittle contender. If Rvp should stay, it think it will help a lot. To my own knowledge i think chamack, squillaci, ramsey, park should be sold. Arsenal has something to show next season. Up gunners
ReplyDeletego gunners its in you. D squad is a perfect match to any EPL club.
ReplyDeleteBig up. Wenger. The magazine is becoming heavy.
ReplyDeleteNice one everybody....cazorla I̶̲̥̅̊s ours....gbam
ReplyDeletewenger should bring cazorla in and shoud not beg rvp
ReplyDeleteGOONER B a GR8 SEASON
ReplyDeleteWenga's had a reality check and its good t C, its about time he gave GOONAZ somfin t cheer about.
Plus wiv Stevie Bould on Board hopefully better defensive drills we wont leak more goals thats worth another 15 points a Season.
lol
