I thought I had problems :chadliblow:
Though I see what you mean, we still got battered by more than 5 goals 4, 5 times last season? So there's defensive frailty, and before that needs to be addressed before looking at style
Jesus. Somewhere in Africa there is a pride of lions licking their lips at the prospect of the biggest snack ever
Oh, no!!! Classic mistake! Obviously doesn't realize that horizontal stripes make you appear fat!

And look! Now he looks much thinner. Good to know that we can chalk off one of those sayings to be absolutely spot on!

You are so dense. You can't even grasp my argument. You don't even get it that I think players like Ginola are essential.
Eriksen = my Ginola.
You don't make Ginola track back or give him water carrying duties. But you also don't surround him with wet paper bags like Townsend, Defoe, soldado, Rose, naughton and Siggie to compound issues.
And you mentioned Woolwich and George Graham? In your unorigional/predictable 'just a gooner' windup you would be more accurate with Wenger era with lumps like Petit and Viera or Gilberto. At least get your eye rollingly unorigional putdowns right.
The reason Soldado IMO is useless is because he does not bring enough to the game in general to justify his lack of goals.
Not trying to be a dick with this question. How many goals do you want from Soldado this season to justify what he doesn't bring to the game?
Yep.
Also IMO eriksen, Lamela, Ade and Kane are still plenty entertaining. Just because Ade and Kane can help us out in 50/50s, hold up the ball and make it stick along in the final third along with defending set pieces, corners and make us better attacking them does not mean they are boring.
Good points, however like others I am still hopeful that Soldado will come good. I think that the popular notion of Soldado sitting around up top not doing anything is mistaken; in his run of bad goal-scoring form he's become much more active in emulating Ade by coming deep to receive the ball, or pulling out to the wing, possibly even to the detriment of his goal-scoring chances, but then with the inability of our midfielders (apart from Eriksen) to advance the ball and provide creative attacking threat, I don't think he's had much choice but to come deep.
Pooch faces a true test in unlocking the potential of players like Lamela and Soldado.
You have to realize a lot of the stick I get from people like CJJ is just froth from lost arguments regarding the problem players like Townsend, Rose, Lennon etc along with sour grapes regarding AVB.
The tiny dancers ref = Defoe, Townsend, rose, Lennon, soldado.
The dust had settled. Was I wrong? Prem Goals combined last season they probably matched one top four strikers output.
I was actually wrong about Soldado. Before the season kicked off I had faith in him. It took until winter to get me to admit he was not suited for the prem.
And AVB got the most prem points we have had with 72 points.
He just got the tiny dancer curse that stopped him from getting over the hump.
Yep. But how many times do you roll the dice? I don't think we have the luxury of risking 3 players to come good. (Kane, Soldado and Lamela).
Ade, Eriksen and Kane already looked line having a good click at the end of the season despite Gonzo midfields.
This is all I think of when I see the phrase tiny dancer.

More of a prancer.
He is doing the Lennon skippy arms run so you could be right.
