We keep stumbling into these really good lineups. I wish we would sort it out earlier.

Iwobi is so good. Moving him to CM for the youth teams has transformed his game.

Feel like there is a trend with this one and the one last season. No Ramsey in midfield.

Elneny completed 122 passes today. Most by one player in the PL all year.

Frees up Coq to do Coq things and makes our front four a fluid attacking force.

Loved 13-14 Ramsey and he make work next to Elneny but the Coqneny axis looks very good.

He quietly bossed the midfield today. Kind of what we've been missing with santi out. His passing and getting the ball up to the front was a welcomed sight and did make Arsenal much more dangerous going forward.

We finally have a balance with this lineup. Welbeck stretches the defense and creates space for Iwobi, Alexis, and Ozil. Elneny is active defensively and is great at moving us forward and recycling possession. This leaves Coq to get in tackles and interceptions.

I was actually pretty impressed with Coqs passing today. He made some nice passes that started attacks, especially the one for Iwobi's goal.

What is Iwobi's reaction supposed to be?

It's Iwobi doing the gunner celebration. He positions his hands like he was holding a gun. Did it against Everton first and then again against Watford. Iwobi celebration v Everton
celebration v Watford

I'm thrilled at Iwobi's development.

But yes, Arsene will now say, "that's just like a big signing" ...

A couple news tidbits. One, Iwobi got a new deal through 2021 for 30K a week. Well deserved, and considering what Theo makes, a massive bargain.

Second, Jeremy Wilson reported today that 1) we're targeting Granit Xhaka as our main priority this summer and 2) we're going to promote Zelalem to the first team next year in the mold of Iwobi.

Another bit of news. Elneny won player of month for Arsenal. Invterview vid Wenger isn't perfect but boy does he know how to sniff out a bargain. Elneny has been everything we could have hoped for and more.
