Why are people dropping Ox?

Poor decision making, final ball lacking.

Why are people dropping Ox?

Because he stinks.

Poor decision making, final ball lacking.

Because he stinks.

Pretty decent in pre season, far better than Walcott.

 

[Rimaal]

Pretty decent in pre season, far better than Walcott.

Ox is always decent in pre-season. Remember him last summer?

Saw the same old flaws today. Performances in the last few games are irrelevant. Fact is, he's still rubbish.

I remember him starting the season well until he was dropped because Ramsey, after failing at CM had to be shoehorned into the side.

On the human spectrum of football skills, you've somehow become confused. He's a talented player who's come through a difficult and rigorous vetting process, it's us armchair fans on our computers who are rubbish.

 

[hydrofluoric acid]

Mustafi and Griezmann in the side for the Leicester game along with Özil.

This is probably maker of our last goodbye.

Goodbye friend, first poster that hated me that I respected!

Ox feels the pressure and it affects his game. We saw it today.

We might actually see Nacho at CB as he's done a good job there in past emergencies. I might do this:

Cech
Bellerin-Chambers-Nacho-Gibbs
Granit-Coq
Rambo-Cazorla-Alexis
*holds breath* Theo

Can't believe I left Iwobi out. Maybe put Alexis up front and Iwobi on the wing...

'Pool looked ****e against Roma last week. I sat with a friend who's a supporter in the Liverpool fans' section. American fans were douches. All trying to prove who knew the songs' 2nd or 3rd verses best. Lame. They played about all their starters and were poor. That + home game = 2-1 to The Arsenal.

Walcott today was better and more decisive than Ox in all his preseason games. The problem with Ox are his bonehead decisions. He flatters to deceive and has no end product.

 

[Kingslayer]

Mustafi and Griezmann in the side for the Leicester game along with Özil.

Ridiculous.

It's obviously going to be Koulibaly and Lewandowski.

As for Liverpool - I'll go for a stuttering 1-1 prediction.

 

[remains]

Think we will display some promising attacking play but be let down by poor defending. 2-2.

 

[STYLEZ]

I don't think we'll win this. We haven't won an opening game in the Premier League for ages and we take on a Liverpool fresh from whooping Barcelona 4-0.

Don't know whos missing, Injured, Or still on holiday but I think we'll draw this at best.


Hope I'm wrong really need a flying start.

 

[Kingslayer]

I don't think we'll win this. We haven't won an opening game in the Premier League for ages and we take on a Liverpool fresh from whooping Barcelona 4-0.

And then they got smashed 4-0 by Mainz today.

 

[Coolin]

3-1 Arsenal. We're **** but so are they. They won't be able to live with us.

 

[MaraDon]

Ox feels the pressure and it affects his game. We saw it today.

this is true.

 

[MaraDon]

Walcott today was better and more decisive than Ox in all his preseason games. The problem with Ox are his bonehead decisions. He flatters to deceive and has no end product.

he is still exploring his qualities, Ox will come out good if he stays fit.

 

[Tir Na Nog]

Cech
Bellerin Holding* Chambers Monreal
Xhaka Elneny
Walcott Cazorla Iwobi
Alexis
​

I think those 3 midfielders have done more in pre-season to show they deserve to start than Ramseys short cameo, while Alexis simply has to start regardless.

*If we sign a new CB in the next 2/3 days then start him over Holding.

 

[MaraDon]

this is how we are going to play:

Cech
Bellerin New Guy Chambers Monreal
Coquelin
Xhaka El Neny
Walcott Ramsey
Alexis.
