Are Arsenal a mid table team?

By 1970's Gooner

There were two main problems that contributed to the defeat against Man City. 

The first was that Arteta decided to play a very young and inexperienced side which was not able to contain the City players especially De Bruine. 

This was very evident in the middle of the park where Guendouzi, Willock and Ceballos were simply not good enough. Xhaka may have made a difference but not a significant one in my opinion. 

In attack Nketiah and Saka were unable to make inroads but you could say they were not supported by the midfield who were running around chasing the much more agile and mobile City players.

The second was that the team were carrying two players who were not even trying and looked disinterested throughout. And they were experienced players who were supposed to show the way and support the youngsters. 

Luiz was as awful as he was in the Brentford game (no wonder Arteta started without him). Aubameyang was really somewhere else. Can you imagine how awful our midfield would have been if Ozil was also playing?

No wonder we got the customary 3 0 thrashing that a mid table team would customarily get from City. Unless there is a significant amount of money invested in the team esp in defence we will remain a mid table team. Just like most of Kroenke's franchises in the USA.

There were two bright spots however. Leno is really growing in stature and was immense. We are likely to loose him albeit for a lot more money than we paid for him. The other is Tierney who will, I think, be a huge success at Arsenal.

2020.08.30酒店小姐去酒店上班都一定要出場接s嗎?日前一名29歲張姓酒店經紀被人擄至山區凌虐毒打,最後丟包在新莊河堤,被發現後送醫,仍宣告不治。據了解酒店兼差不是一個複雜的工作環境?這名死者隸屬於FACE經紀公司,是國內知名的酒店龍頭。FACE經紀公司竄起後,標榜主打年輕辣妹打工,讓酒店生意一路看好。FACE經紀公司甚至時常假扮星探,到東區捷運站拉攏年輕貌美女性到酒店小姐上班通常會取什麼名字?酒店上班,或許也正是因為搶酒店生意,才引發殺機。
