EPL: Arsenal vs. Manchester United - 4/10/15 - 4:00pm

[Cruisio]

Nevermind the Mourinho questions (which in fairness, was within context of what was being discussed)

People aren't concentrating anywhere near enough on his reaction to the fans being frustrated with the selection part of the conference

The man is well passed it

 

[celestis]

Jeez there's some frustration on this page , some of you need to go out and enjoy for your own good .

 

[Maxim]

I really hope we look at last seasons game at old Trafford during preparation.

In that game Coquelin - Cazorla (Özil at 10) comprehensively lost the midfield battle to blind herrera and fellaini. We were only able to match them when Wilshere replaced Santi and Ramsey moved to CM.

Their midfield is far stronger this season, if we start Coquelin - Cazorla, it's going to be a very comfortable match for United.

Did we not play that midfield against them in the Fa cup ? We comprehensively belted them then in that area . The match you talk about was end of season and Santi was fried .

I'll back our midfield still .

 

[sharongur]

Ramsey has to start in CM

It was, but the FA cup performance we sat far deeper and looked to counter. They also had Di Maria having a shocker and getting sent off.

I don't see us winning with Anthony Taylor as ref...

That certainly is tough , wonder why we cant Oliver .

 

[Penn_]

Just watched his press conference. Didn't think there was anything wrong really with the questions being asked. Mourinho question also isn't as bad as made out.

Oliver is one of the best refs there is indeed, well at least for us.

 

[Taylor Gang Gunners]

Wenger had every right to object to the questioning. He has to hear about Mourinho's comments every other ****ing presser. English media still lapping it up and relaying it. Arsène is right, it's boring, jarring even.

He should ban all questions regarding Mourinho.

 

[juice man]

Come on you ****in Gunners. Lets do these cnuts.

3-1 Arsenal.

 

[SuperGoon]

He rarely gets angry. He gets provoked a lot with Mourinho, but never usually bites. This is new.


Promising, almost.

for everyone, he was 2 young to get bribed by ferguson.
Best natural decisions. he is the best ref BPL has to offer imo

 

[Gooner Zig]

Whoever thinks Ramsey isn't following Arsène's instructions needs their heads checked. Do you really believe for a second that Ramsey consistently ignores Wenger's instructions yet STILL gets picked? Come on now...isn't it obvious that Arsène INSTRUCTS him to masquerade as a CF, trying to get into the box in dangerous positions as much as possible? If Rambo truly ignored AW then he would be on the bench, not even AW is that weak to keep playing a first teamer who blatantly disregards his instructions.

You are right. while maybe ramsey is following wenger instructions, it is due to what ramsey can offer on the wing.
When you put cazorla on the wing, his advantages are more flexible for wenger to use, hence he'll instruct him to be a proper winger. (or anyone else to that matter)

Ofc ramsey is following AW instructions, but the fact he is a CM playing on the wing is what creates those mid overflow, find pockets ,come to get the ball instructions.

I think Patrick Vieira use to have players ignore Wenger instructions for tactical reasons. I'm just going by recent quotes from the media not sure how true it is.

Record in his last 13 matches isn't that bad actually: 7 wins, 4 draws and only 2 losses. I think that Villa match just stands out and changes the perception of him.

 

[Kingslayer]

We'll win this one...and then lose to Watford next week.

'Cuz that's how we roll, baby.
