Shauntaylor85 Posted Sunday at 14:59 Share Posted Sunday at 14:59 (edited) Simply sublime. No better side in Europe defensively. Arteta is top class. Winning the title this year no doubt. What do they do? Play it simple. Basically a 4.4.2! Edited Sunday at 14:59 by Shauntaylor85 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are Spurs ever going to push on? I look at that team and bar Son nothing to get excited about in the final third. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted Sunday at 15:05 Share Posted Sunday at 15:05 4-4-2 is an interesting shout, feels more like a potential strikerless or 4-4-2-0 to me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted Sunday at 15:07 Share Posted Sunday at 15:07 Or 4-4-2-0..doesnt smack of a true and traditional straight line 4-4-2 anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Man City beat them next Sunday then with a 5 point gap it will be game over already. Only way Arsenal win the league is if City get found guilty.

Arsenal have the best central defensive unit in the Prem/Europe?, Saliba and Gabriel are outstanding..........to state that should Man City win next week, that it is all over is just dumb IMO. Arsenal can grind out results away from home, when even their top 2/3 players are absent, which indicates to me that this will go to the wire. The best 2 sides in England will be neck and neck throughout the season..............and i am looking forward to Arsenal breaking the Man City Monopoly?

I watch them live a lot Kid, my wife is a season ticket holder. They do push up to a 4.4.2 quite regularly actually. 3 hours ago, TDarwall said: Fine till about March when they'll collapse as per usual. They didn’t collapse. They had one freak result v Villa.

MarcusX Posted Sunday at 19:09 Share Posted Sunday at 19:09 Not hearing many of them talk about referees and second yellows today… Timber probably should have seen a second yellow for raising his hands to Vicario Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronnie Sinclair Posted Monday at 11:28 Share Posted Monday at 11:28 Odd to see Arsenal in black in this game - apparently too much white on their shirts for the referee to accept Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its easy to play any formation when you have top quality players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted Monday at 13:44 Share Posted Monday at 13:44 It was more of a narrow than a conventional 4-4-2 at best. There is a reason why top Club and International sides don't play the traditional 4-4-2 IMO. This by few metrics is a traditional 4-4-2.. White is a CB playing RB? Unsure what the first position of Timber is. Trossard and Havertz are not typical strikers. In some ways it seems like a 4-4-2-0 or a 4-4-2-0.
