Deep breath - we go again.
What does the next phase look like.
At the end of the podcast I talk about the criteria for the next coach.
One is know the players you like for your preferred style and have the strength to implement that style.
Arsenal have a recruitment issue https://twitter.com/arsenalvpodcast/status/1200530706138615810

For me there in summary are 3 styles of play.
Control and push people back into low blocks
Mid block and transition fast
Defend deep and counter attack.
I’m going to list some players to highlight the coaching issue Emery could not solve based on poor recruitment

Bellerin - can play deep but can break Tierney - all court player Luiz - has to be deep. No pace Chambers - no pace but doesn’t like being deep so vacates holes too soon Mustafi - bails games injured. Better deep no pace Holding - no pace. Better deep
Sokratis - can play higher but it’s scary. Better deep Xhaka - better at controlling games pushing teams back by switching play around the horse shoe Guendouzi - all court player that needs his space reduced as positioning is immature Torreira - small space player
Pepe - better in a counter attack team Auba - better in a counter attack team but can do transitions from a mid block also Lacazette - better when teams are pushed back but can do mid block Ozil - controlling low blocks with a Giroud but all can mid transitions
You see the coaching issue.
Who do you invest in style wise.
We have defenders not happy on the half way line so we are forced deep which kill your slow CM as the space is too big for them
We have 2 strikers that are counter attack killers but if we want to push up

Arsenal need to know their style but THEN recruit for that style and SELECT for that style.
Don’t make the big names do jobs they can’t do consistently or they quit on you.
So what style is best for Freddie to use.
I would gamble on 4-2-3-1 with energy and control teams

I would settle maybe on a mid block away but at home I would gamble by pushing teams back.
Issue is our CB’s
They are all bad and slow.
We need fast problem solving defenders to unlock us to the football we are used to.
If you have slow defenders you must press to protect

We need offensive pressing energy to trigger this team.
We must learn as a club that slow vulnerable weak defenders are not in vogue.
They force you into systems that are not becoming of a big club
Herein lies the playing issues at AFC
The new manager must challenge our club

Too long we have been weak and reliant on one persons vision.
We need to learn how to co-exist from a base of HOW we want to play.
Sell those that don’t suit and upgrade
Today we have memories and no vision
That void is being filled by poor people playing with our heritage

If you look at the CM - do,we have the energy to press.
Look at Cfc with Kovacic Kante Mount William Pullisic all buzzing around
You van see why Emery chose that we drop off.
It was the less of 2 evils.
Yes he made mistakes but the squad construction didn’t help

The new manager must have the balls to tell us our failings
He must see this and have a rebuild plan.
It’s PowerPoint time and KSE need to listen or their money is at risk.
If Raul and Edu want to keep their phoney baloney jobs then focus on how we build COHERENT TEAM
