kompany was shocking last year. Jesus christ. Why do people persist on putting him in.
Koscielny is one of the worst cbs in the league and gets covered by the infinitely better mertesacker
Cech(because courtious hasnt played yet)
Zabaleta Cahill Terry Gibbs?
Yaya Matic/henderson(based on last year)
Mata Ramsey Hazard
Rooney
That would be mine most likely.
I think sanchez will be amazing, think costa and fabregas but they havnt played and also think mangala will be a beast.
Oh forgot azpilicueta would put him in ahead of zabaleta. Best full back in the league.

Terry?
He plays for the most defensive team in the league, if he played for any other team he would be woefully exposed.
Azpi, would never get a look ahead of Zabo.
Baines? that has to be a joke right?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
so why was terry so good when chelsea sccored over 100 goals in one season?

Zabaleta--Kompany--Koscielny--Luis
-----------------Yaya---Ramsey-----------
----------------------Özil----------------------
Alexis-----------Aguero---------Hazard
I think that team is reasonably removed from Arsenal bias, with 4 City players, 4 Arsenal and 3 Chelsea.
removed from arsenal bias and you include 4 arsenal players?
ozil!! are you kidding?
alexis has not played a single minute in the premier league
ramsey has had 3/4 of a good season in total for arsenal
theo still doesnt think hes a winger
koscielny is 2nd choice to sakho for france
stop talking up arsenal...you finished 3rd!
regardless of any other liverpool players, you left out the leagues 2nd top scorer...sturridge. why anyone bar aguero gets into the forward positions over him is beyond me
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Liverpool largely overperformed last season and have since lost their best player. Henderson would probably be your best shout for inclusion but lets be honest here, he's not on the level of Yaya or Ramsey and you know it. Sturridge is an excellent player through the middle who benefited from Suarez last season. He's not as good as Aguero though. Koscielny is a fantastic defender and far above what rival fans seem to think, idiotically. And I justified Alexis in the paragraph. He may not have played in the PL last season but he was Barcelona's 2nd best player in a team that nearly won La Liga last season. Only Messi outperformed him.
I didn't include Walcott in the line up. But don't let the truth get in your way.
girouslki how do u answer the fact koscielny has a mare against any big team that arsenal play against?
And Sturridge only scored two more league goals than Alexis Sanchez last season. We're comparing a striker to a winger here, so when you bring up Sturridge's goalscoring record, remember to think who he's competing with.
I didn't include Walcott in the line up. But don't let the truth get in your way.

Usually it's Mertesacker who causes us the problems in the big games, you'll find. Koscielny is at his best against the best players. I do rate Per, but he gets exposed sometimes.

your talking absolute nonsense...
Mertesacker is infinitely better. Koscileny had a mare at stamford bridge last year and in the cup at the emirates when mertesacker didnt evenplay
Szczesney
Sagna Per Kos Gibbs
Ramsey Fabregas
Walcott Ozil Alexis
Van Persie
Kos has a mare in big games Facking clueless hahaha

Firstly, in the league cup we were obviously not truly trying and secondly, when you rolled us over it was the fault of the whole team. To judge a player on games like that is foolish. We clearly had a mental issue last year that we need to address.

Well, he doesn't. Some of his best performances have come up against the likes of Messi or Suarez. In fact, beyond getting himself sent off against City a couple of seasons back, I can't really think of any big games where he's had a particular poor performance.
The big defeats of last season were far more down to systematic tactical flaws and naivety coming from the manager than individual performances, and a lack of cover from midfield and full back for the centre halves.

are you deluded, i was at the emirates for the league cup 2-0 and he was a shambles, slicing clearances, out of postion, didnt put a tackle right...complete joker.
Then the 6-0 at the bridge dont get me started.
then didnt you get thumped by liverpool and city where I remembering him being absolute cack. Obviously the team as a whole need to play a part but jesus christ, if he plays against chelsea im rubbing my hands together
jesus christ you lot, keep thinking that, thats great for us
Not trying in a league cup game against london rivals I hope you keep kos. I really do. Mertesacker much better player
Oh deary me. Nickalopodis really does have no clue. Koscielny is a fantastic defender.
He went off injured in the 1st half against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge and it was only 2-1 vs City when he went off injured. Basically you have based your opinion on his entire Arsenal career where he has played dozens of big games and because you believe him to have been poor in 2-3 of them, that's that. I guarantee I can name you more big games that Terry has been bad in than Kos, I wouldn't call him a big game bottler or anything though. But then again I'm not a clueless idiot
I wouldnt trust an arsenal fan to know a fantastic defender tbh. With your defensive history

why come to conclusions? But tbh arsenal have had a shaky defence since cole left. probably had a shaky defence for 10 years now.
weve beaten you 3-0 at the emirates, didnt utd put 8past your boys, city 6? liverpool 6? us 6?
didnt you concede 5 or 6 against reading? cmon guys. have a word.
No, we've only been graced with the likes of Sol Campbell, Tony Adams, Steve Bould, Martin Keown, David O'Leary and Frank Mclintock at centre back.
