His long range shooting has been superb, takes advantage of all the bodies blocking the keeper and hits it hard and low.
Özil with work rate and goals. He will retire an Arsenal legend.
Quite the feat. Feels like his goals are going under the radar a little.
goon is this accurate? This is really a fantastic achievement if so. Not sure if it's his mild/unassuming nature. Super underrated. Even by myself
goon Thats a crazy stat, especially as Lampard had a 22 goal season in 09/10, means he scored 9 penalties. We'd definitely have won the league if we'd been awarded 9 penalties.
Most of our players' performances are, to be honest. All because of that little dip.
Our player of the season?
Sicario2 - Tier 1 just about. With a 7.25 average rating.

Yeah from open play. Lampard, Yaya, Gerrard etc all took penalties so had higher overall hauls once or twice.
Also think that's where the effect and gravity of Saka/Martinelli to a lesser extent comes in. They draw that extra attention and Odegaard is intelligent enough in his movement to find the resulting pockets of space, and exploit them.
Qwiss It gets worse, Chelsea were awarded 12 penalties in total in 09/10
If Øde were our penalty taker I reckon he'd be a nailed on 0.9+ xG from the spot. He's a subtle guy whose body mechanics are impeccable.

I said the same a while back, reckon mentally and technically he'll be the most consistent.
goon Might not even need to think about it. He's the most "10,000 hours" of all our players by all accounts—possibly more like 30,000 hours if accounts of his manic drilling as a child are to be believed.
Sicario2 - Tier 1
I guess this is one of his ‘vanish’ games
Still player of the season but really needs to be more consistent. Expect a 10/10 performance v Forrest.
I thought he had a good first half but we wasted some good opportunities he created. He certainly fell off once we conceded. I think after the City result and the way the seasons drifted away he just ran out of steam.
Our player of the season but what he did today and v city is inexcusable.
Concentration and consistency needs to improve big time if he wants to be considered world class.
Sicario2 - Tier 1 Our player of the season but what he did today and v city is inexcusable
Didn't we concede almost the same goal vs West Ham or was it Southampton?
Soton. Walcott scored
Think we need a player like Odegaard on the left side - problem we’re seeing at the moment is that both Odegaard and Saka are heavily marked. We need players on the left who can take advantage of that space or attract defenders to them so that odegaard and Saka have more space to operate in

Mitoma.
lorddulaarsenal In the first half of the season, that was Jesus. If he is not on his game, Trossard should be playing that role in my opinion - he's the best suited for it in our squad. A false#9 playing almost as a mirror image of Odegaard and letting Martinelli come inside and run beyond him.
