Royalclapper For all the LOLs Arsenal have provided in the last few years.......have to say it looks like another top side in the making from what I've seen of them this season - Monaco CL defeat aside.
A bit more defensive solidity and they're close to being formidable title contenders again IMO - absolutely bags of goals in them from almost every position.
^^^^ has been the case for the last ten years. Watched a couple of their games. When Arsenal win the ball their full backs bomb on and take up positions as high as possible not exactly great for defensive solidity.
Watch Chelsea when they play Utd. All throw ins around midfield area will go down the line so the taker has time to get back in position. They won't pass the ball square across the midfield until there are a certain number of people behind the ball etc etc. They are just not going to get hit by counter attacks
