Attack, attack, attack attack attack.

Baldemort I have to agree with you fella. I always try and stay positive and believe in this team and I know they have that attacking ability in them but they're just not prepared to show it.

Could this be Rafa's fault??? Possibly, possibly not. We have without a doubt the best defensive manager on the planet with the possibly one of the best defensive units on the planet but we are missing that something in attack.

Like you say we have no guile. Admittedly Torres and Gerro banged in a load for us last year and have not been together enough this year to do the same but we also need more goals from elsewhere.

Like you said we are static, we always pass to the side or hit long balls which are only good when you're playing the last 2 or 3 minutes when the ball needs to be in the mixer. I've been feeling like this for some time now. I love Rafa and want him to win the league for us but he needs to be willing to go balls out and do it. Either that or the team are letting him down with their pussy approach to games.

Attack attack attack should be our only philosophy.

Surely this sort of stuff can be worked out during Melwood. I very much doubt that Wenger buys players who already know exactly how to look for what the current squad will do. In other words, when you see Arsenal do their pretty triangular passes and eye catching off the ball movement, I doubt if that's something that new players simply turn up and do. You have to teach players these skills and nurture them and most importantly, give them time to gel with their team mates so that they instinctively know what pass to look for, whether delivering the pass or waiting for it.

We simply do not have this apart from Gerrard and Torres. If Keane could add the same and maybe one of the wide players, it would very much help cut teams open. This has to come from Rafa.
