Flamini-Cazorla won't and hasn't worked, so we should either play Ramsey-Flamini or Cazorla-Chambers.

Most likely I think we'll go back to the 433 we played for a lot of last season

Flamini
Cazorla-Ramsey

Ozil shifted wide right, but not nearly as much a=as an issue now with Bellerin.

We won't go with that against Dinamo. Will probably be Flamini and Cazorla or Chambers and Cazorla.

Ramsey is more of a chance to maybe come back in against Norwich, but even then I wouldn't be confident of him being anything more than a bench option.

Coquelin out for at least 2 months it seems. Ramsey back in full training today, Ox back in full training in a couple days.

Arsene also said although January is not an ideal market, he'll do what he needs to do.

Funny quote from ESPN:

Quote:
With a glorious run of fixtures and a real chance of mounting a title challenge, so what do Arsenal do? They go full Arsenal and Arsenal it up completely, ending up with Arsenal all over their faces.

If a fairly simple dive, one which you see in most games every weekend, is one of the worst pieces of sportsmanship you've witnessed then I think you might need to watch some more football.

It's the worst one I've seen, like I said, Reid missed him by about a foot and he threw himself to the ground.

In saying that, the way Costa behaves is probably the worst I see week in week out.

Arsene saying we would take the Europa League seriously if we do finish 3rd in the group, which makes sense of course we would, but that's what worries me :lol:

Can see us beating Dinamo tomorrow and then drawing or losing in Greece.

That's more like it. Completely dominant.

So good having Rambo back, Ox should be back for the trip to Greece and Theo might be back.

Let's be honest though, it's all about Mesut and Alexis. We truly are not worthy. Credit also to Joel Campbell who had his best game for the club I thought.

Now we just need to win by 2 goals in Greece or just win scoring at least 3 goals, any other result and it's the Europa League. Won't be easy obviously, but not impossible.

It sounds defeatist,m but Europa might be better for us in the long run if we take it seriously, simply because the co-efficient points don't differ between competitions IIRC.

That said we'll beat Olympiakos by 2.

Cazorla gone from having rings ran around him by a teenager against spurs, to kicking his own foot against WBA to now diving against Norwich.

We're trying to mount a serious title charge, have Ozil i. the form of his life but can't get the ball into our final third because of the shit cunts behind him.

Just fucking pathetic.

2 pts off 1st, may as well be 20. Last week was unlucky, this week was just fucking shit. Watch us manage to drop pts against Villa and Sunderland now.

On second thought we have managed to get through November only 2 pts off the top, the unities will kill us though. Will wait until we know more about Koscielny and Sanchez before going full doomsday I think.

The immediate problem is that without Sanchez and Walcott I find it hard to believe we can qualify for next round of champs league.

Honestly doesn't really matter to me. Don't feel like getting dicked by Barca anyway.

Imo, if Alexis and Koscielny are out for weeks and not months then we might be ok, especially with Theo back soon and hopefully Welbz around Christmas just to give us some more options upfront.

Will mean Ox will probably get an extended run in the side.
