Wilshere out for 3 months now on loads of sites
We don't need cesc
Harsh but kind of true. I've grown tired of Wilshere running around our Midfield like a lunatic. He adds nothing to the team, just inbalances the midfield.
Hopefully Ramsey kicks on now because things would have only got worse with Wenger and this suicidal "Wilshere and Ramsey" experiment.
Let's be honest, Wilshire is never going to stay fit for any decent amount of time, I'd be bothered but I don't think he's all that, the guy seems to have no discipline on or off the pitch.
Sad thing is we're going to rely on crocks like him to come good for the foreseeable future rather than bringing in proven quality.
I’ve had a chance to look a little more into this. It’s not just the one game. Wilshere and Ramsey have played 7 games together this season. We’ve only won 2 game from that combo (Crystal Palace, Anderlecht). But for the rest we’ve drawn or lost. (Everton, City, Spurs, Utd, Dortmund,).
Out of the 7
Palace - Wilshere to Ramsey 16, Ramsey to Wilshere 12
Everton – Wilshere to Ramsey 5, Ramsey to Wilshere 5
City – Wilshere to Ramsey 14, Ramsey to Wilshere 15
Spurs - Wilshere to Ramsey 5, Ramsey to Wilshere 4
Utd - Wilshere to Ramsey 3, Ramsey to Wilshere 3
Dortmund – Wilshere to Ramsey 10, Ramsey to Wilshere 4
Anderlecht - Wilshere to Ramsey 12, Ramsey to Wilshere 9
It’s not just this season either. I managed to browse through last season and even though they didn’t play that much together through the middle, here are the numbers.
Villa - Wilshere to Ramsey 23, Ramsey to Wilshere 21
Spurs – Wilshere to Ramsey 4, Ramsey to Wilshere 3
Sunderland Wilshere to Ramsey 11, Ramsey to Wilshere 5.
What’s going on between these two? They have too many games where they’re just not working together. It’s really poor. They just can’t play together because it effects the rest of team. They’re numbers to our other attackers aren’t great either. It’s our defenders and DM’s doing most of the tippy tappy and we only seem to find an outlet down the flanks. Is this on purpose? Is Wenger trying to create more space in the middle so it’s not as congested? No idea. But gone are the days where we’re pinning the opposition into their own box. We’re struggling to get the ball far from our own box and up the park in most games.
