Arsenal (a) match thread

[Montana]

Really surprised we didn't just move Toure to RWB and bring Agger into central defence.

[dizzycat]

At least we have options if Flanno doesn't have a motm performance

[RedReet]

Flanagan ****ing hell.... surely playing Kelly at right back or bringing in Agger and moving toure to the right would been preferable, even going 4 at the back or moving Henderson. In summary anything but Flanagan

Why?

[kingfunk]

****ting bicycles.

[Gazzla]

Why?

Because Flanagan is a liability

[dizzycat]

We look solid in the middle, so as long as we have the legs to cover the wrong backs for ninety minutes e should be alright

How often have you watched him?

What are his main weaknesses that will get found out today? (Only Gazla to answer please)

Not sure I would have started Flanno but I can understand not wanting to move Toure or Henderson, losing Johnson at such a late stage would mean these two players would have spent a week preparing to play in their current positions against their Arsenal counterpart, Henderson I feel will be particularly important in the middle providing pace, power and closing

So in the end maybe just a choice of two right backs?

Search for my previous posts, not sure Gazzla has commented before.

That's a good point, perhaps Rodgers feels he doesn't have much choice.

But to summarise, I think he's more comfortable going forward than any of his competition.

[RichC]

Getting a little nervous now.

I'm pleased we've kept the nucleus of the team from last weekend and kept them in their positions. I guess Flanno is a bit of a risk but I'm trusting in Rodgers he's got most things right this calendar year and clearly he thinks he's the best option in that position, let's hope he's right.

I'd take a ****ing draw at the moment

Just seen the team, why is Flanagan in ahead of Kelly?
