Solid 45 minutes all round.

Special mention goes to AMN, Jeff and the Ox. I hope they can keep the pace over 90 minutes.

Ainsley has been a bit under-whelming but no biggie

Really? Played the holding role really well, some good passes. Looked very comfortable in there.

Perez giving Ozil a run for his money!

This is the best I've seen Welbz play. Signs look good.
Niles needs to bulk up, he gets pushed around too often, but on the ball he is quite comfortable. Better passer than Coq
Jeff has been a little quiet, but has shown some promising stuff.

To be fair the DM position is a hard one to have a standout performance in. I just remember a couple of cheap balls given away

Did I say anything different?

Puel is superb at setting out teams. We have have outclassed them with pace and movement up front. This was not abt a let down after Liverpool nonsense. They have not got close and the only time Southampton threatened was when we let them by sitting too deep.

The midfield 3 has been very good, interchanging positions at right times as well. No real #10 in there, and that has been a benefit in controlling the game from kick off.

Bellerin and Walcott have been quite down the right, but that is mainly because the Lucas Perez - Danny Welbeck combination has been on fire.

I know Walcott scored, but he's looking very rusty after his time out injured. Hopefully he gets the full 90 to get back into it

Lucas has been our best summer signing imo. Never heard of him when we got him but he really looks a quality player. Need to find a way to get him in the team

Niles with the most touches in the game, and second most passes. Good game so far!

posted on 28/1/17

Look at those stats.
Ox 97% pass rate, created 2 clear chances.
AMN most touches, most tackles/interceptions.

Jeffs contribution betrayed, but such a good midfield performance in the first half.


The big challenge is to keep it up in the second, as the Saints have to come on strong from the off.

Lucas is left footed.

Lucas--------Alexis-----------Walcott
should be starting 11.

With Giroud and Welbeck as subs or when teams sit deep. Will Wenger ever do it?

I did say Lucas will get more game time after Xmas when everyone was calling for him to play. Happens everytime with a new signing.
Could be that Eduardo replacement

Think Welbeck on the left, Lucas on the right in this sort of form.
Lucas has not looked as good on the left as he has when he has played on the right.

That's why we need to get Klopp in, ASAP

No complacency Arsenal. Want to see the same dynamic in the second half.

it doesn't matter actually cause Lucas has looked the best as striker.

The point of Lucas/Alexis/Walcott is that it is full interchangeable and so makes a nightmare for markers.

And they have different skill sets. Walcott is an off the ball runner. Lucas is clearly a very good passer with vision and Alexis is best on the ball dribbling.

When teams sit deep you bring on Welbeck and Giroud to use physical power and in Welbecks case workrate as well.

Problem is Lucas best position seems to be RWF and for me Walcott starts every week when fit no matter what

Really like that we are tight in midfield and try to win the ball back early.

I'd rather have Welbeck taken off and the team sit back myself.
