Was certainly an epic goal he scored, cost them 5.5mil euro's this season aswell, Gotze looked very impressive, will be interesting to see how well he does. Like Wilshire he looks insanely comftable on the ball, great vision.
I really don't know enough about Dortmund, I know they sold Sahin to Real, he's a attacking central mid who gets a bunch of assists, so generally the playmaker, so they are adapting to losing a Cesc type player? have they sold any strikers, because they looked insanely panicky when they got in good positions to score.
Either way, Arsenal were very lucky to get a point, if we keep playing like we have this season, even ignoring the 8-2, I can't even think how badly we might end up doing. We need to improve, fast. Can't help but think that, with essentially no quality central midfield players except maybe Arteta, that we'd be FAR FAR better off playing a second striker than an extra empty shell in central midfield. Having an extra striker would also give our wingers, and Arteta a heck of a lot more passing options upfront. One more utterly pointless idiot playing in midfield is simply not as useful as a 2nd quality player upfront.
How have Utd looked since ditching basically the entire midfield trio and playing 2 strikers in every game, everyone in the team looks better and offensively they are ripping teams apart, and due to how much they are attacking, defence is under less pressure. Yet again Wenger's bought almost all, all out attacking type players, Benny, Gervinho, Santos, they are all built for all out attack teams. If Wenger insists on play 4-5-1, why the hell didn't we save money on Santos, Gervinho, Park, and buy M'villa and Diarra, if you're going to play defensively and win games on defence, buy the players you need.
Utd fans especially have been complaining about lack of central mid buying, but they should now see its because they have dropped a central mid player, so need less there. They wanted to go more attacking, so bought more attacking players, how long can we buy players built for 4-4-2 and all out attack, and play a crap 4-5-1, force players out of position, and lumber them with crap like Song in the middle.
