‘He shouldn’t be in the team’ – Arsenal star bashed and club’s decision rued
Arsenal’s draw against Tottenham brought them another vital point in their push for the title but others believe it brought the squad’s frailties to our attention.
Arsene Wenger’s side nearly had a full line-up of first team players sidelined by injury on Sunday as second-string options like Mathieu Debuchy and Joel Campbell had to be called upon for the north London derby.
But while the high number of injuries in the squad could be credited to bad luck, one fan believes it goes beyond that.
After the 1-1 draw with Tottenham, the Gooner below went on the biggest of rants, ruing the performance of Per Mertesacker and the club’s decision to not sign an outfield player during the summer.
Do you agree with him?
The guy’s a tool. Pers has been great for Arsenal, his pairing with Kosh is one of the best in the Prem. See the stats shite for brains.
He never was good, it was Kos who was extremely good. He was covering for both of them. Try Kos and Gabriel, and see the difference.
Per mertesacker is too slow for any top club, he wud never get a starting spot at any top club in d world. He hardly slides, he is easily displaced, he has no speed to chase down opponent trying to score and most times he dodges shots being played towards goal. He is no agile and aggressive and dis should be his last season in football. The only tin he is good at is arial balls that comes toward him and shot pass accuracy. Bad for kosielny becos he always has to look back to protect d goal cos per isn’t good enough, he has to race back cos per is lazy and isn’t good enough to man goal himself. Has no strength to chase players. Arsene wenger can’t help dis guy and should be left to go cos he is weak and old. Nothing else to offer.
