Taking off Okazaki was an error though, he was linking superbly with Vardy. Ranieri always took him off. He runs out of steam so cant blame Shakespeare for that one. Anyway the handball made the difference 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andym Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 Can't imagine Chelsea, Spurs and the manchester clubs will be worried about Arsenal. Conceded 3 goals to a team who only scored 17 away total last season, who lost 13 games away, and who they haven't lost to since 1994. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 From what I saw tonight Leicester will have a comfortable mid table season. Going to be plenty of poorer teams in the league than them this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I was referring to taking off Matty James for Kelechi. Just struck me as a new manager wanting to use his new toy. ( Yes, just like Sherwood) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First time I can remember no one even mentioning them as having a shot (and they have plenty of ex players in the press). Arsenal will do well to get top 4, they won't win the league again under Wenger as he never attempts to fix the underlying issues anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 None of them did. Only one predicted Spurs. Many didn't even predict arsenal to finish top 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( Yes, just like Sherwood) I thought it was Amartey on for James (who hasn't played a premier league game for 2 years btw so was never making 90 minutes) and then the striker change. Apologies if I got it wrong but I think the template was the same but Kelechi dosen't have Okazaki's tracking back and teamplay in his game yet so they didn't close down Arsenal quick enough. I think Okazaki going off hurt Leicester more. They also missed Huth blocking and heading away stuff in the last 10 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted August 11, 2017 Share Posted August 11, 2017 I did get it wrong....Amartey on for Okazaki at 72 minutes and then James off, Kelechi on at 82. Can only think Shakespeare looked at those 10 minutes and Arsenal were pouring forward too much so wanted to get another striker on to exploit the spaces for counter attacks. I agree bringing on Andy King at that point would've been a much more logical change. I doubt however Leicester will collapse like we did after that infamous game at the KP.

If Vardy had looked up Cech would have looked very stupid being 40 yards out during the first half too. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
