The left side of the force.

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.

That would give us Podolski, Miayaichi, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Rosicky and Hoillet who can all play wide midfield.
I believe of all of them only Podolski is limited to the left side (plus attack in his case.)
Just fixed that for ya. :|
Radical!

But forgot to mention Santos too, looks better left midfield than defence where I think he is a liabality.
Which isn't saying much really. Never been a fan of attacking full-backs being played as wingers because if they could do it sufficiently well enough, they wouldn't have become defenders in the first place!! :banghead: :banghead: It's one thing over-lapping as a full-back and adding an additional attacking threat, but when it's your job to actually beat the opposing defender, it's an all together different matter.
