David Seaman feels http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 don’t know what they are doing – Premier League Update
Former Arsenal shot stopper and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-c10409 Seaman has come forth and admitted that he thinks the Gunners don’t know what they are doing. Seaman feels that the North London team’s defence is just all over the place and while the team is
playing a game, they don’t really have any plan on how to approach the game. At the same time, Seaman went on to admit that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wojciech-Szczesny-c36998 has been forced to make far too many saves this season and an Arsenal keeper shouldn’t be making more than 3 or 4
saves a game.
The former Gunners hero, when talking about the defence and how they used to train in the past is quoted to have said: "In 1991, we trained so much on that back four"
"Pat Rice [Arsenal assistant manager] was there so he knows what needs to be done and we trained and trained and trained and it worked, but at the moment the goalkeeper Szczesny is getting too much to do.”
He then went on to shower praises on Szczesny, but admitted that he was being forced to work way more than he should be.
"He’s showing how good he is but I don’t like to see that. A goalkeeper for Arsenal normally has one or two saves a match and that’s it.
"But at the moment he’s keeping the score line down, not the team in it."
When talking about the Gunners season so far this term, Seaman went on to express his concerns and admitted that it was unbelievable that Arsenal had lost four of their opening seven games.
The Gunners are often hailed as one of the best teams in the world and have almost always been guaranteed a spot in the top four and in the Champions League. However, the way this season is developing a top half finish is looking all the more unlikely as
time flies by.
Arsene Wenger really needs to work on the team’s back line and maybe even needs to invest in a new defensive coach, since that seems to be the only area that the team needs to improve.
Apart from that, one positive that has come from the season so far, is the fact that Arsenal finally have a keeper, who is more than capable of protecting the team’s goal.
Szczesny has been brilliant this season and his performances have finally helped put a rest to all the jokes that Arsenal and their keepers were made subject to, over the years.
