Hello Gooners, Liverpool supporter in peace. Question for Ed047or the followers followinh the game yesterday. Aubameyang, why is he continuously played on the wing? I've watched you a few times recently, he obviously works hard going back but surely you want him Where's he's best and can make most impact. Is it a temporary switch to accommodate lacazette? Personally think he's the main man and should roam to the wings a la Henry. Good luck on the season and hope you finish top London club.

{Ed047's Note - I wish I could give you the answer, I think Lacazette is supposed to hold the ball up better but that’s questionable to me.

We really need Auba on the end of the chances we make in my opinion.

Agreed, if anyone I'd have played Saka wide or lacazette if between him and Aubs. Need to add some steel in midfield to allow the others to play but I think that's been said a while.

Auba through the middle with 2 wingers either side, it's simple enough. I'd also like to see Pepe play on the left wing on Thursday night and see how he gets on. RW is his preferred position but it's hard to get him in behind when he always looks to cut back on his left foot. Play him on the left and then he can drive forward and put in crosses with his left foot and also drive shots across the box.

It’s the seemly obvious decisions that frustrate me - PEA isn’t a winger and can’t cross the ball nor can AMN. How do you weaken your team? Play both on the left

While I’m at it - what was the goalie kick plan. Stupidity against Liverpool. Liverpool toyed with us and our midfield was terrible and selection dubious at best.

What can’t I over react? Surely saying all is good is under reacting and reason why 4th was once deemed ok.

{Ed047's Note - AMN needs to make the RB berth his, no good on the left and not good enough in midfield.

Sell Bellerin and Lacazette, Martinelli and Saka can go left.

Use the Lacazette and Bellerin money to ensure the arrival of Partey and Aouar.

For me Auba would be a 30 goal a season striker instead of a 20 goal a season left winger and Laca is not a 30 goal a season striker.

We looked much more secure with Martinez in goal too but what do I know! 🤣

Exactly Ed. Since 16/ 17 Auba has scored over 70 goals in just over 100 apps. People that say he isn't good enough are deluded. Through the middle his numbers would be even better for us.

I'm not following the Martinez train though. It was the best decision for us and him to let him go. There's no denying that Leno was class for us before his injury and if he didn't get injured we couldn't of sold him for 2m let alone 20m. I would of loved him to stay but we need the cash and he gave us that.

I would sell Laca as well and secure Partey. The make a move for Aouar if we can raise more funds but it doesn't look like there is concrete interest from anywhere for anyone really, other than LT on loan to AM.

{Ed047's Note - he was class to a degree Glenn but was still making some mistakes that then unnerved an already shaky defence.

I like Leno and yes in the end you’re right, I just want to see improvements from Leno but didn’t think he had a particularly great game last night.

But the truth is, no one did.
