It was that spastic Miquels fault that was nowhere to be seen.Paulinho wrote:Don't forget that the passer alone cannot create the chance, the attacking players have to make the correct series of movement to position the opposing defence in a way which makes the pass/run possible. Perfect example of this was Dyer's goal against us on the weekend, Kos/Song got dragged along like morons and then Dyer was free. Great piece of play

Even though most teams try to press against BarcelonaResurrectionRaddy wrote:The best thing about this is that it shows Arsenal are only the 5th best English passers. So much for being the te closest to Barcelona in the way they play
Also, Xavi's stats wouldn't be as good if he played in the Championship. You get closed down much quicker and there's less time on the ball. Leon Britton has proved this
You make your own space and Xavi does that.

We can't help it if the media decide to think we play like Barca. I personally think our play is different but if the morons in the media say otherwise who am I to disagree.

Not true. Xavi does as many passes and accurate ones against English teams as he does against Spanish teams.

Yes, but those are against Premier League sides, not Championship sides. He'd obviously struggle a lot more against Championship teams.

Obviously.
The Championship is far and away the toughest league in Europe.

Swansea are only good to watch when they're under pressure and can't pass it around all game freely, it's the same with Barcelona.

Wow I've never seen this post before and I wish I hadn't.
Where does it show Arsenal are the 5th best passers? And Xavi would have shit around him in the Championship. It's not like he's never had to put up with other players pressuring him too.

Fuck dat. They were the most boring team to play against us last season.
Just passed it around the defence and then hoofed it up to fast black guys on the counter.

Shut up. I didn't expect them to be that shit and as I said countless times before, they gave us some very difficult gamesUncle John from Jamaica wrote:Kuled wrote:
