All this talk about who should play right mid

[brett angels left foot]

I'd just stick Arteta back out there. Rodwell & fellaini in the middle.

 

[Hellerad]

I tend to agree. But it would still be better to find a floating right winger/forward so that Arteta can stay central (like Pienaar provides for the left). I think that's why Donovan worked so well, and why Moyes kept trying out Anichibe on that side.

I think....that you're opinion is wrong.


Enormous self control here not to call you nasty names or anything.

Arteta on the right? No, you then limit the guy so much. Want your best player is his best and favoured position. Rather have Rodwell on the right, than that. Arteta's goal V City away last season was all because of Rodwell's work on the right. Not saying I would actually want Rodders on the right, just saying it would be far better than R-tator on the right .

 

[ToxtethBlue]

Rodwell and Fellaini did brilliant alongside each other during the first half of last season, make it happen...

 

[Toffe3m4n]

I may get proper slaughtered for this, but here it goes...



I think we *may* be missing Big Vic a wee bit right now.

 

[TX Bill]

We tried Arteta out on the wing a few years back.

Didn't work.

You want your best players on the pitch. and our four best midfielders are Arteta, Pienaar, Rodwell & Fellaini.

Nah can't see Rodwell on the right, although the lad keeps surpising us with his versatility so who knows.

And TX Bill, Arteta played well out wide. Keeps hold of the ball out there, provides quality service in to the box & to the full back on the overlap.

I don't. I want our best team on the pitch, no Real Madrid square pegs round holes bollox for me.
Old cliche...Star Team beats a Team of Stars.

I love that goal, top 3 of last season for mine, make arsenal look like stoke

 

[Thorny]

what a cheeky leave by cahill...team had confidence

hopefully we get that confidence back soon.

Didn't we get battered by everyone then though?!

This could happen. Like the spanish line up. Play with wing backs pushing up with fellaini and rodwell covering. Arteta,pienar, ? and beckford have licence to roam and attack as a unit. How do you defend against that?
