At least yesterday I saw Xhaka defending and running more... not jogging. At least he is more acceptable in yesterday's match. Still doing unnecessary tackles tho...

Bellerin is just a shit defender. Possibly the worst RB in the league at defending. Period.

It's not because of Emery's tactics, not because of Emery's playstyle, not because he commits to attack, and not because there is no cover.

Monreal does the same yet our left didn't seem so exposed when West Ham attacked that flank. People say Mkhi did not protect Bellerin, Iwobi and Auba didn't do that all that much either on the left.

He can't even defend when its 1 v 1 - gets burned almost every time, his positioning is shit, has literally no awareness, does risky square passes in his own half and loves to put his teammates under pressure by passing to them when it is clear they are man marked.

It is no coincidence teams are targeting our right flank game in game out and we concede from that side almost every time.

Lichtsteiner as RB and Bellerin as RW could work.

Bellerin now reminds me of Armand Traore. Can attack with pace but can't freaking defend to save his life.

I really don't know what happened here. He was an exceptional, explosive, talented all round RB when he first burst on to the scene in 14/15 and had another stellar year in the 15/16 season. After that, it was all downhill from there.

iirc he was injured

after the return he was never the same again. read about him saying he has trauma going into challenge

just like chambers, was amazing when he first started. then jefferson montero happened

ask him cut his hair problem settle.

bellerin pls come bck

He need to drop his Vegan diet.. no energy to drop back after running up to top..

Doesn’t make any difference even if he drops back in time. Players just go past him like a training cone.

u dunno ar welbeck already living in 3018?

Why unai dont just play Lich-Steiner?

Bellerin needs to be dropped imo.. Play Lich and see the massive difference in defense.. Lich can go and attack and provide real steel defensively.. While Bellerin can only attack... his defending and positioning is a joke, everyone can get passed him lol.

Still hoping to see Leno playing, and Torreira starting for good. Regarding Auba, maybe if Unai wants to play a single attacker, he can pick Laca instead this time, see if there is any difference. I feel like Auba would be a better super sub because of his speed, when everyone is tired

jose on suicide watch.

Another team besides arsenal getting 1/3 wins, lol

hehehe i think bellerin suits more to 5-3-2 formation since his defensive ability not good.

but i think this 3 months is a trial month for Unai to get his player to get used to his system..

maybe starting November we can see the real Unai's Arsenal Team

arsenal?

not west ham..maybe spurs

I think we already got wide selection for first team tho.
We can sub 3 players with no problem.

I think last game Ramsey was really good.
He is really someone you can rely on the pitch.

or chelsea?

Chelsea got kante and that kovavic..no way

Mostly is Fulham or hammer team

Not hammers. looks like arsenal.. just wait la kot. Added steel in midfield if true.

Transfer still open huh rumors lacazette considering moving away also..
