Right now, the league is led by a prone-to-being-flaky Arsenal, who finished Wednesday night's stylistically symbolic clash with Liverpool effectively playing a 6-0-4; next is nuts-and-bolts Leicester City; behind them, it's the paradoxical City; another spot further back, it's the still-building Tottenham Hotspur; West Ham United are after them.
This is a league there for taking but one in which everyone is deeply flawed, each club increasingly becoming a product of its immediate environment. A product of the Wild West. I CANNOT UNDERSTAND HOW RAMSEY IS SO INTENT ON SCORING, When in fact tactical discipline is required during certain stages of a game. The last game both Oxlade Chamberlain and Walcott made bad decisions in the last third of the field. With Walcott twice he tried long range shots that lacked power when a pass to Ozil would have created a better shot on goal possibly for him or Ozil to take....Another time a pass to Campbell would have a better shot on goal instead he tried a weak long range effort.
If Arsenal isn't more astute defensively and pragmatic in the final third they will fade once again as an almost ran team.
I maintain as Gamma said months ago we need a capable backup to Coquelin. Plus a short term replacement of Carzola in the middle to retain possession under pressure. The OX has regress badly...Sorry state of English over hype players.
This is where I am puzzled as to the demeanor and content of the managers post interviews after the Liverpool encounter. I hope behind closed door he behaves differently by calling out Ramsey; However, I doubt that is happening because Ramsey has been doing this all season. This is where the candor of Louis Van Gaal during post game interviews are welcomed...smh
