Been thinking about options if we keep playing 3 at the back. I like what we can do, especially with our front 3, where we can be very fluid. Ozil can actually play in the 10 spot with two strikers in front of him, or flank a more central striker.

To get more attackers on the field, we could


------------------Cech------------------
------Mustafi------Kosc------Monreal---
Bellerin-----Ramsey----Xhaka--------Ox
-------------------Ozil------------------
---Theo/Welbeck/Giroud------Alexis----

More defensive minded

------------------Cech------------------
----Mustafi------Kosc----Gabriel/Holding
Bellerin-----Ramsey----Xhaka-----Monreal
-------------------Ozil------------------
---Theo/Welbeck/Giroud------Alexis----


More than anything I like that we can start with a front three of Ozil, Alexis, and whoever else, and shift them around. Two up front with Ozil in the hole; one up front with Ozil on the flank.

I think the first formation would be more effective for us.

The first formation but take out Monreal and replace him with Holding.

No matter the formation, our spacing problems remain. Utterly terrible positioning. This has been a pattern for years.

How do we have no one in that area of the field?

Eh, I'm not too worried about that one frame. Could just be waiting for Xhaka or Ramsey to drop into space after a run.

Though there was plenty to fix with our new shape no doubt.

Well I wouldn't post it unless I thought it was a consistent problem. The spacing has been consistently bad for a while now.

Isn't that 14 since 2009?

Just sad to see his career once again be derailed by an injury. Hopefully he won't be out too long and will be back for preseason

Looks like we have a new LB. Sead Kolasinac from Schalke.
DB, if we get him who do you think we sell out of Gibbs & Monreal?

I'm guessing we sell Nacho. He's 31 and starting to decline. Gibbs has done pretty good this season. As usual it's the injuries that hold him back.

I am sorry but he is just not very good, and if you listen to those who know in the UK they agree.

Apparently Lucas Perez may be going on loan back to Deportivo next season.

Also exciting news apparently Barcelona has accepted our bid for Arda Turan. Would be a fantastic signing.

Trump is worth $3.5B
Arsenal is worth just over $2B

If Trump loves his son as much as he loves his country he'll buy Kroenke out for him.

Let's #MAGA, both America and Arsenal
