DMF


people say this, but i've never seen him demonstrate an arteta level of intelligence, or the long range passing ability to play there. Arteta's contributions at DMF often go unpraised, but his game is built on intelligence of reading the passing lines not physicality.



Yeah Ox performed well when he played as DMF, but I think he would be wasted there when he can be more effective further up the field in a different role.

I have no idea, I'm going purely on Wenger's opinion of him.

Not just Wenger now that you mention it. His dad mentioned it too, and I'm sure Ox did himself quite a few times

A lot of that video is from the season before hand is it not? He's lost his legs and that is the reality imo. He was not up to par for us last season though had some ok perforamnces here and there. We need an upgrade
Arsenal team v Benfica: Martinez, Bellerin, Chambers, Monreal, Gibbs, Flamini, Campbell, Ramsey, Rosicky, Ox, Sanogo


Will today be the day Sanogo shows that he isn't useless? I hope so.

He's 21 I really don't know what all this hate is about him
Wenger said, I think yesterday, Ospina is injured

And I thought Chambers was more likely CB than Bellerin?

I thought Chambers was an RB and was a prospect to be converted into a CB for the future

yeah my point was just that im not sure Ox has the intelligence to play DMF and cut out the passing channels like good old 'tets

Rumoured to play CM as well, and on FIFA 13 he was a RM.
Didn't know Bellerin could play CB, whilst Chambers can if needed.

rumoured to come off the bench for his first appearance.
how serious do we actually take the Emirates cup?

Is is the same as those pointless friendlies we play in Asia, or is it like an early league cup game?

Imagine this:-

Ramsey Chambo

Campbell Cazorla Sanchez

Giroud


Crazily attacking


Strong midfield pivot. Reminds me of a certain opening game vs Villa.
