The Shopping List—aka We've got flipping great wadges of cash

Ray

I think if we can compliment the magic of cazorla with the immense dribbling skills if someone like ben arfa or even ribery in attack we would be much more potent in front of goal. Currently we dont have no wide dribblers who can go past players for fun.

mohan

err... gervinho?

PS: not talking about the end product. Are we?

Gervinho cant go past players unless he plays on the left which is currently occupied by podolski.

Rex

... 'like Ben Arfa or even Ribery'. Are you suggesting that Ben Arfa is the better footballer/winger of the two?

Nope but Ben arfa is more realistic

Less skillful than Cazorla, by some distance at that, and also a whiny, diving cheat. Hope we are not interested.

----------Jovetic
--Ananidze-Cazorla-Cabella
------Wilshere-Arteta
--Gibbs-Koscielny-Mbiwa-Sagna
-----------Vorm

Rex

Mbiwa and Koscielny together seems about as poor a partnership as Kos/TV has proved thus far. Too rash both of them despite being really good individually. I'd be really surprised if they ever play more than 3 games together for France despite soon, perhaps, being their two best CBs.

That whole front 6 also looks way too unbalanced for my liking.

If only Wenger is adventurous enough to follow what Fergie did yesterday by playing a diamond formation. I still think that formation suit us best.

Podolski Giroud
----Cazorla
Wilshere-Diaby
-----Arteta

atm that would be the best way to go with sagna and gibbs/santos bombing forward as wingers. reminds me a little of that ac milan team with kaka

Rex

Think we looked really good, both defensively and offensively, at the end of the West Ham game when Koscielny came on and we played with 3 CBs. I'd like to see Wenger experiment with a line up something like this;

------------Sneezey
-----Kos---Mertesacker---TV
Sagna---Arteta--Wilshere----Gibbs
-------------Cazorla
------Walcott---Giroud

We already rely a lot on our FBs to keep width, (unless if Santos is playing 🙂), and we desperately need someone to compliment Giroud if he is to play up front.

Rex

Andres Palop would be a great stop gap to pick up in January.

est

I really like that team, Rex. I'd replace Walcott with Podolski, but otherwise it looks sweet.

Doubt we're ever going to see it though.

Wouldn't mind Palop either. We could really do with one experienced 'keeper.

Conor

Some competent players in January.

Klaus

Palop is forty years old. Taking the experience criteria a bit too far there.

est

He'd still be an improvement on Mannone...

Klaus

An additional post in the middle of the goal would be an improvement over Mannone.

I used to really like Palop but he was poor last season from what I saw and they rightly replaced him with Lopez instead. I think we should move for someone with Premier League experience.
