Could Emery take Arsenal in a new Direction if Aaron Ramsey leaves and where would he play him if he stays?

Positives, Needs and Hopes…. Arsenal overcome Lazio with great introductions for Torreira and Lichtsteiner
Positives, Needs and Hopes…. Arsenal vs Lazio First thought (pre-game)… that is obviously not our starting team vs City, right? I wonder why Emery has not given 90 minutes to that team.

Arsenal conceded less goals in the Money Restricted ‘Banter’ Era – How to sort our Leaking Defence?
This may seem like an odd discussion point. But then how many goals should we concede? In 17/18, only City, and Liverpool scored more goals than we did. We scored as many as our good friends from the Borough of Haringey. But our goals against tally was poor, especially vis a vis the top six. […]

Aubameyang Should be In The running For The Golden Boot
One of the final acts of Arsene Wenger’s reign was to sanction the signing of Borussia Dortmund’s Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and what a decision it immediately proved to be.
