REFORMING ARSENAL

Here we go again, arsenal once again in the spotlight. It is no news that they have been a mid table side in recent years to say the least and the earlier they realize that they are no longer a force to be reckoned the better. It is one thing to know you have a problem then another ball game entirely to actually fix that problem. I hope the insiders do realize that there is a big problem. They have been absent in the champions league in recent years, missing out on the money and the ability to attract big players to the club. That is abysmal of a club of this stature and if they continue to miss out then they have completely fallen off. Analyzing the current team, a whole lot of changes needs to be made if they are to return to the pinnacle of football.

Luckily for them, they already have one of the best strikers in the world in their hands though he is yet to sign a new contract with his current deal set to expire by the end of the season. I would suggest the club let him move on and cut their losses as the damage has been done already. Once again a big player has not been managed correctly. Ramsey, wilshere to name a few are among the players that the club has let their contract run down and ended up getting nothing from their transfer with the former leaving for turin as recently as last season. 

They really need to break the bank if they are to return to the top. I see no reason they should not go for someone like halaand. I know that seems like a far cry but making a statement signing of a player in that mold will show how ambitious they are and other players would want to join the club. Some alternatives to halaand could be strikers like belloti, jovic,oshimen are also good fits. While on the wings, there are guys like dembele, coman, james, coutinho, draxler. Most of theses players are currently unsettled in their current teams and would entertain a move to a club like arsenal which would be a perfect marriage as they both are hoping to hit top form. Getting at least two of the names mentioned above would be brilliant. Ever since Ramsey left, they lacked a good ball carrier in the team. Van de beek ticks all the boxes for me and arsenal should be fighting for him or maybe isco. Thomas partey has said he wants to join the club according to whispers. He is exactly what arsenal needs in that DM position and is an upgrade in what they currently have.
Getting someone like Madison or grealish who already knows the league should also be a priority. The right back position should be addressed as well. There is pavard, zest or even cancelo who is currently unsettled at city and would welcome a move. I strongly think they should get in a world class defender like demiral or someone like koulibaly. There are brilliant youngsters in the team with huge potentials and if they keep them and can get some of the players mentioned above then arsenal can get back to former heights or even greater. Funds are limited yes, due to the effect of the corona virus. Most of the players in the current team are simply not good enough for arsenal and needs to be moved on to generate income for the new signings. Nevertheless, the current dilemma now is securing a spot in the top four and arteta needs to find a way to do that with just 10 games remaining.

HOW GOOD IS LIVERPOOL?

You remember the fearsome duo of Sturridge and Suarez 

right? And how close they were to lifting the league title 

before bottling it at the very end. Fast forward to few years and they are in the Europa league  final without Suarez this time but guess what? They bottled it again where it mattered.

 They also lost to man city as well in a domestic cup final that same year. 

A much changed team got to the champions league final in 2018. On a cold night in Kiev against a Real Madrid side looking to make it 3 champions league trophies in a row. They were unfortunate on the night with their star man Salah brutally taken out prematurely by Ramos and familiar problems resurfaced again and they bottled yet another final. 

So it is safe to say this have always been a good team over the years but just lacked that character and a little bit of substance to cross the finish line. They were good yes, but not just good enough to complete the job. The forward line has always been top notch over the years, the midfield not by any means the worst, but that defense which is made up of a back 4 and the goalkeeper is where the fault is and it laid bare for everyone to see.  Robertson and van dijk were added and Arnold came through the ranks as well to improve the porous defense. Allison Becker came in as well from Roma. There were also some additions across other areas of the team that proved vital. This is the team in focus today.  Spearheaded by a 3 man front line of the selfless Firminho as the number 9, explosive Salah on the right, ever reliable mane on the left. A midfield trio of Henderson at the base with Fabinho and Wijnaldum on either side. A back line formed by the marauding fullbacks of Arnold and Robertson that have the best long distance relationship in football with the duo exchanging cross field passes on a regular bases. The center back partnership of van Dijk and Matip together with the assured Allison Becker between the sticks. This is the team they have yearned for years.  This team have been nothing short of magnificent pushing man city all the way to the last game of the previous season but missed out on the trophy despite losing just once but who cares anyway as they went on to claim the champions league in May. Their journey was so impressive and it included arguably the best comeback in the competition’s history as they turned a 3-0 deficit into 4-3 against Barcelona at Anfield in the return leg of the semi-finals. “Corner taken quickly”, origi!!!

The Liverpool faithful would never forget that moment. They lifted the trophy in an all English final against spurs in Madrid.  Liverpool are 25 points clear at the top of the table with the league trophy already in their hands. You can feel the energy from the stands to the manager down to all the players. They simply do not know how to lose even on their worst days with rival fans branding them liVARpool as they claim the VAR has favored them most times. They are certainly the best team in England and definitely among the elite clubs in Europe if not the best.
