The first thing Arteta need to change when we come back is our formation. We are Arsenal football club we need to play expressive and attacking football. Arteta need to make a quick transition to get us firing again and that will start with playing to the players strengths (1/5)
In the strikers position we play Aubameyang. Let Lacazette impact games from the bench and restrict Nketiah to Cup games and injury back up. We have Martinelli, Saka, Pepe, Nelson and Willian to use on the wings, get the right balance and use 2 of them in a 3 with Auba (2/5)
The midfield is what let us down. Our current system only allows two player to sit in the center of the midfield and we are asking a lot from them. We need to start playing with 3, 2 doing the dirty work and 1 creating and helping the striker score goals. (3/5)
Our best midfield combination is Partey playing box-to-box, Xhaka/Elneny playing CM/DM and Ceballos or Willock playing just behind Aubameyang. We have the players to execute a well functioning midfield 3 attack or midfield 3 defense. Both 4231 and 433 are possible options (4/5)
Our defense is quite not as bad as it use to be. Gabriel is currently undroppable but he need a consistent partner. Both Luiz and Holding had great and bad games so far. We need to find the perfect right side CB that give us balance. Let’s try Saliba out. (5/5)
