heid3ster Posted May 28, 2015 Share Posted May 28, 2015 The worry for me with Zog....is him getting caught in possession and them launching their counter attacks with Walcott at the centre of them. I think both Zog and Gabby are just as likely to do that as the other one. With Zog, it'll be because he fails to pass it off early enough, and with Gabby it will be because his first touch launches the ball 10 yards away. I agree with Mantis that Gabby's a big game player, and this is the biggest game ever, so I think he should play. He hasn't earned it based on his recent performances (neither has Zog, really), but if he's up for it he can cause Arsenals defenders a lot of headaches.

mjmooney Posted May 30, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted May 30, 2015 Sherwood has said that if they are all fit he will play the same starting 11 as the semifinal, so it looks like Gabby on the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVTuco Posted May 30, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted May 30, 2015 Sherwood has said that if they are all fit he will play the same starting 11 as the semifinal, so it looks like Gabby on the bench. I'd be fine with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeordieVillan Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I reckon he will be a squad player next season. If don't replace Benteke though, then the team will probably be built around him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 I said a few pages back I didn't think he'd done enough to start with his appearences in recent weeks so I'm not going to suddenly criticise Sherwood for that, I would've made the same call. I however don't understand why having seen the first half him and Bacuna/Sinclair weren't on straight at half time to give Arsenal something to think of. You can't legislate for amazing strikers like Alexis but surely make the change at 1-0 instead of risking it getting worse which makes a sub's job coming on all the harder.

HanoiVillan Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 No indeed. He was basically useless, but he ran around, and even at them with the ball at his feet a few times. He tried. Yes, it wasn't good enough, but far more players disgraced themselves yesterday. I was disappointed he didn't start yesterday. He's basically going to be a better option than N'Zogbia 99% of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodytom Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 A bit like with the media and England, we need to stop telling ourselves we have good players. We don't. They are absolutely **** shite who capitulate over n over again at the mere sign of any improvement. Yes arsenal were far far better but we has lost that final 2 weeks ago at St Mary's. An abysmal end to an abysmal season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
