    Agree. I actually think Dorrington has the attributes to be converted to an Inverted FB and, if so, could be lumped in with the 3 you mentioned.

    Its probably the same player I know about too. What is the name of the player you are talking about and I will let you know if it is?

    He played 23 times for our U21s scoring 5 and got 5 Assists. His first loan at QPR was a disaster and he had a poor loan at Stoke too.,

    Arteta finished 8th with 61 points on his first full season. 1 point more than Ange has with 3 more games played, after not only having a preseason, but also 1/2 a season experience in the PL with the players.

    Spend is incomparable, do you think a 21 year old Ben Davies goes for 12m in the same market Lewis Hall goes for 28m? Do you think Brennan Johnson goes for 40-50m 2 years before Mane is sold for 35m? It doesn't matter if we spent 65m (Ndombele), 5m (Dele) or they came from the academy (Kane)...

    Ange is doing better than Poch did in his first season. We also already had most of the players that fit his system, we just had a mixture of injuries (like we have had this year), players underperforming (like we have had this year), Young players yet to fulfil their potential (like we have...

    "Cone boy" and "Fraudiola" were names Arsenal fans were calling him just 2 years ago.

    This thread at the moment is eerily similar to this Poch thread around the same time in his first season. We made 5 transfers the summer after (Son, Toby, Njie, Wimmer and Trippier) and challenged for the league...

    Lloris, Walker, Vertonghen, Rose, Dembele, Eriksen, Lamela and Kane a probably get in this team if we are honest. Poch started with a squad that finished 6th the season before. Past spend is incomparable, player prices have changed a lot in 9 years.

    That is because the stats you are looking at is "Last 356 days" which includes his time at RBL. @Trix was posting stats at his time here. He has dropped to 84th and 85th percentile respectively now though,

    But Southampton can't move a place up or down and are in the play offs, so may rest players.

    Lots of possibilities on this one. - He is prioritising implementing his style over fixing it. - Its a different "problem" to the one he had at Celtic. - He is, but the players are having trouble implementing the fix. - Maybe they are not just "mistakes: but just part of a learning curve and we...

    In his 1st season at Yokohama, they conceded 56, in his 2nd season, they conceded 38, so maybe he is the guy to move us forward?

    1st Season at Celtic they conceded the joint 5th most in the league from set pieces (10). 2nd Season they conceded the least (6). Most people will be surprised by this, but we have only conceded 6 more than Arsenal from set pieces this season and only City have conceded fewer than them. We...

    This. At the start of Arteta's 3rd season (2 & 3/4 technically) they lost all 3 of there opening games after finishing 8th twice in their previous 2 seasons. They were 5th the season before he took over and it took him almost 3 seasons to get back to 5th. Last season we finished 8th and are...

    Grealish, Mahrez, Sterling, Foden and Gabriel Jesus are all "strong at 1v1s" and played for City over the last 3 seasons. Dembele.

    Not sure why everyone is assuming Davies will be LB, Emerson has played more mins a LB for us this season than Ben has and we also have Dragusin now, which would allow VdV to move to LB if thats what Ange wants to do.
