Arsenal’s defense is dreadful! Why is it so many teams are rubbish at defending at the moment? A strong defense is the foundation for success!

Because they are scared at doing the basics....you'd have to analyse why they are scared....media...fan pressure to play great footie with limited resources before getting results etc etc

I think you have hit the nail in the head. All this rubbish about pretty football - give me a hard fighting passionate team who will battle to the last whistle any day. Tim Cahill late winners used to leave me more elated than the routines wins.
 
We have conceded 33 goals in the League which is the same as United and one more than Arsenal. Considering we have been unable to field a settled defence then that isn't that bad. The problem has been the lack of goals we have have scored 14 goals less than Arsenal and 12 less than United.

Our biggest problem is our failure to replace Lukaku and I am not sure Silva can be blamed for that. Add in a proven 9 who scored 20+ goals per season and we would look much healthier.


A top striker is needed we all know that...

But if we can't defend the other end then it's counter productive...

Confidence is also a big issue that starts by not conceding soft goals, we must without a shadow of a doubt become more competent in defence...
