STOKE CITY THREAD

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

Djourou and Kos simply don't have it at set pieces.
Think it's more of a team problem mate
Agreed but how many is that we have conceded from a set piece recently.

No commanding Centre Half and we are being found out again,

:lol: :lol:

We're giving these Stoke fools a lesson in sideways passing today 8)

Yes, they're 2-0 up and have hit the bar BUT we're not resorting to such things as long throw ins or forward passing... no, this is a moral victory :barscarf:

Keep it up lads! :barscarf: :oops: :banghead:

So 72% possession and 1 shot on goal.

28% possession, 3 shots on goal and 2 goals (albeit 1 unlucky deflection)


I simply don't understand the way we are playing, we get the ball, stop, wait for Stoke to get 9 men behind the ball and then try to break them down by running straight at 7 of them straight through the centre.

BTW, we blame Arshavin for the defending to give away the free kick, but where is Gibbs?????

Why are we playing 5 in midfield when Stoke are playing 8-0-2. Again it doesn't make sense

It's ok, wenger will sign another 5ft 11' central defender to sort it out.
Like we've said, when the manager hasn't got a clue, what chance have we got?

Oh really, you don't say... :banghead:

How the fuck can we beat Man Utd but fall apart against so many inferior sides?

How can the board justify the price increase? if we stopped paying these w**ker's so much we would save a ton!

Djourou was i the press yesterday saying that the defence gets too much stick about the way they defend.
Any idea why that is? :D
