    Does the arrival of OZIL have a negative impact for Ramsay?

    Ramsay was in my wildcard team

      It will be Wilsher plus one of Ramsey or Arteta at CM surely. On current form, it has to be Ramsey

            Ramsey has been comfortably outplaying him for a while now.

              Infact, Ramsey has been Arsenal's best and most consistent performer for a while now.

              This season I'd agree, Ramsey has been very impressive especially as he's been playing slightly more defensive at times. Wilshere - Ramsey is their best combination for me. Probably won't matter though, Wilshere will get injured any day now.

        10.5 for a 32 year old Eto'o fresh from the mighty Russian League? More like 8.0 to 9.0 and could be a bit overpriced at that as he'll not be nailed-on. Please Jose give Lukaku his chance, he's class.

    I think the reason why defenders are getting more bonus than midfielsder this year, is

    Pass Completion (after making at least 30 passes)
    70% completion (1 point)
    80% completion (2 points)
    90% completion (3 points)

    Defenders always make simple & short passes, so their pass completion is high, so easy for them to get at least 2 BPS (for pass completion) every game (Ex: Mertersacker last game?). While midfileders only get 3 BPS for an assist, and they usually make more complex passes, long passes, long crosses...to create chances, so their pass completion is not high as defenders's.

    sub reason:

    For every 8 clearances, blocks and interceptions (total) --> Total, so easy for evey defender.

            A kind of DM for me, hardly in the Mascherano or Makele brand of DM going round braking up play which Arsenal need. More of a holding midfielder for me with some attacking strength. He's 31 too. I thought Wilshere would be more of a DM than him.

        I'm not sure. Obviously if you look deeper down, he is primed to take off - possible no.10 spot (his favourite and most effective), a good schedule, and seems to be a lower team bully, but I have a feeling many will look at his price tag and his 9 points overall and will think that is not good enough.

      Not all - I've seen some pretty rubbish teams pre-WC.

      I wondered about all of the wildcarders yesterday, but today I happened to play mine. Injuries and all the new signings to toy with during the International break give me a good amount of time to tinker and screw my team up even more. What's so bad about that? 😛

    Demba Ba and Ozil to Arsenal makes their coverage complicated. Think I may just stick with Walcott but I was going to double up with Giroud.

      Giroud is on good form at the moment and is seen as a striker who plays best when his confidence is high.

      Simply put Arsenal do not have enough strikers and need at least Ba to make up 3.

        I hope they won't. Giroud is my pre-season punt.

    Sorry to break the rhythm but I cannot BELIEVE Arsenal are getting Ozil- he is fantastic. As a Salford fan I've never been so concerned about our league position...
