Too much excuses for the team.
Hardly anyone needs to 'intergrate' so stop making that as an excuse
Arteta played billiant and Merstesacker was settle
The only players who didnt perform yesterday such as Gibbs, Ramsey, Walcott and Van Persie are the ones who have been at Arsenal for a while now. Nothing to do with new signings.
Wenger should have done a major shift up of players in and a formation change. Instead we've kept the same 4231 formation and replaced Fabregas with Ramsey and Gervinho with Nasri.
Movement of the front 3 has to improve. Our play around the opposition box needs tempo, movement, sharp passing, different angles made. Just look at Barcelona's play around the opposition box, it's worlds away.
We've been struggling at home to teams who put 10 behind the ball and sit deep. If we play the possesion game we need to win the ball back in good positions, this is what is perhaps the main problem- our work off the ball is not good enough.
When teams sit deep and defend in numbers, pace and getting in behind the defence become almost obsolete. It's movement, quick fire pasing and beating a man that count.
Di Natali is the king of movement, our front 3 need to move in unison making life hell for defenders, this hasn't been happening for a while now. But I was happy yesterday, we needed a win and we got it.
Too Quick to Judge!!
