its impossible to play 2 in CM nowdays especially on a massive pitch like the emirates.

We would look so open in midfield, defence would be even more vulnerable

Our CMs would tire out the oppostion would outnumber us 3 vs 2

The problem is Van Persie. Hes not a proper striker and as a result it affects our midfield.

If we had a proper pacey, strong striker our midfielders could play balls in behind launch it long etc.

But with RVP midfielders have to intricate football with him one twos etc its alot harder to play with a Van persie type.

Van persie should be playing in behind the striker but he doesnt have the energy/stamina work rate to play there

Arteta, Wilshere, Ramsey, Rosicky, Diaby, Song, Frimpong and Coquelin. Now, obviously this group of players will never all be fit at the same time or the world would implode, but surely that's too many players to have to keep happy.
=====================================
Not really, most would be happy to warm the bench and we need competition, let them fight for their spot and not just give them what they want.

So John are you saying RVP is no good and should be sold?

I am saying RVP is a talented player but doesnt suit our system.

11 world class players dont make a team.

Which is why i have been begging Wenger to play walcott up front!
