Bit hard when we are playing a system that doesnt play to his strengths at all...... If we were playing 4-3-3 we would atleast 2-0 up by now wtf is Pardew doing. INB4 BE PATIENT

Not unless we change back to 4-3-3 we wont.

Complaining already? Jesus wept. Because 4-4-2 is shite and we are on a winning run because of the 4-3-3 you dont fix what aint broken ffs.

4-4-2 and hoofball to keep Ba happy? ffs he's not bigger than the team ffs go back to 4-3-3 for crying out loud.

4-4-2

I am going for 4-0 but i like your confidence

Your lack of Ba disturbs me Check your Eyes When i quoted it you had no Ba ffs check my post Anyway well done

Your lack of Ba disturbs me

Same here was thinking we would have Jonas-Gosling-Ferguson in midfield Well done Pards, top line up

For some reason I thought it was at 4pm or something on tv. p*ssed off that I stupidly agreed to go into work for a few hours at 4. glad i didnt do that myself, considering the option was there would be rather pissed off.

It's at 3pm? f*ck me i thought it was a 7:45 kick off and i just got up

You can see he tried to scoop it over the goalkeeper fluke my arse Vorm is just butthurt that he was made to look like a right t***

I get the feeling the Dutch are a bit apprehensive about picking Douglas due to being brazilian-born and and all that. Pieters and Krul will tho

I have not been here as long as some people, but i get the feeling he does it on purpose to cause an argument

tbf we dont need all 3 in the midfield to be work horses, it could work with one playmaker just spraying passes around.

I am pretty shocked theres 9 pages of debate about whether we should want Europa League or not We were in the championship 2 years ago with Alan Smith and Kevin Nolan in midfield, its a no brainer for me

I did'nt understand the Martin links when they first came about but now we have switched to 4-3-3 it would make perfect sense. Would be very happy to see him come in tbh.

Madrid what a load of bottlers they are

It's a very good squad imo, its just they get a ridiculous amount of injuries all the time which makes it look weak, they had about 19 injuries at one point earlier in the season There are obvious area's for improvement but the weakness of the squad is often overstated imo. They are lacking bad in the striking department though. They've been lucky that Van Persie has stayed fit the entire season, would be a nightmare being an Arsenal fan and seeing Chamakh play every week. Agree with that which is possibly while Podolski is being eyed up as he can play left, behind RVP or instead of him if injuries or suspensions occur. I dont think they need more than 3 or 4 players if they can stay away from injuries to compete with United and City tho but Arsenal staying away from injuries seems to have become some sort of paradox.

What's this iam hearing from Mancini about not having enough money to build the squad needed? Lescott and Milner probably cost more than our whole squad combined It's not the owners fault Mancini if you cant build a balanced squad with quality defenders ( instead of just Kompany and Richards) , quality midfielders ( instead of just Yaya) with over 200m to spend instead of imbalanced squad full of forwards and AM's. Not to mention the fact Mancini cant control his own players and not just Balotelli either the majority of the squad act like they own the place there is no discipline what so ever.

Yh agree with that, speaking of ex-players i was thinking what players would look in this system apart from the obvious ones that did well in the past. I know he didnt have the best of times for us but i reckon Hugo Viana would have looked class in this setup.
